Hi all,   I need a very isolated pair of headphones for biking to university, portability and just for when its too damn loud for my dt990's haha.  I had a pair of MEelectronics and I believe I had the m6 model and those worked really well but were a little lacking on the sound quality front. ...

Hey everyone. I currently own a Entry level Sony turntable that I bought for $100 and now realize kinda sucks. But I just pulled it out and listened to a couple records and remember how much I love the "vinyl sound" even though it doesn't sound great on the setup I have. Now I'm looking to...

If I have a high output impeadance amp like from my reciever(about 100 ohms), plugging in my cousins 32 ohm dt880's doesnt sound too good.  Now when I plug in my 250 ohm dt990 with his 32 ohm dt880's it seems to degrade the sound of my dt990's compared to having just my 990's plugged in.   I...

Hey everyone, I downloaded the trial for redline's plugin and setup foobar with vst stuff like I was supposed to and got the plugin to show up through the vst. Right off the bat without touching the settings I could tell it wasn't working. I then tried it through very separated songs (all the...

Hi. I have pink Floyd's dark side of the moon recorded at 5.1 96/24 (massive files haha) and I'm trying to down sample it to stereo 48/24 wav for my iPhone. When i downsaple it and listen to it it doesn't sound right. It sounds the same as when I'm playing the flac and set my device in vlc as a...

I have recently ordered a pair of dt880 premium 32ohms (amazon's mistake, I actually ordered the 250ohm)  and was quite disappointed because the inner ear cup was very shallow. It touched my ear and felt much less open (physically) than my cousin's dt990 pros. I was also disappointed by the...

I hear people say all the time that an underpowered amp isn't going to sound good. For example I'm looking into the bottlehead crack and planning to eventually upgrade to an lcd2. I understand that the crack will only be able to drive it with maybe 100mw but that's 111db and much more than I...

I'm just getting into headphones and unfortunately missed the meet in Seattle a couple weeks ago... I'm now unsure on what amp/dac to get and how much I care. I was wondering when the next meet is around the northwest(willing to drive to Portland and Vancouver too). That or is there any way i...

Hey.  Ive never done a group buy before but Im wondering how hard it is to set up a group buy for the bottlehead and if its worth it.  I already have me and another person getting a bottlehead so we'd be saving 30 dollars over the 2 quantity price each.  Is it even worth the hassle?   Thanks

I'm set on buying the bottlehead crack and I saw that if I buy two then I save. It would basically cost 220+shipping for the second one. I was thinking about getting two and building the second one just to sell it. I've seen the price going for around 300 bucks for a well assembled crack...

Hi all. Ive just been getting into the audiophile world and I started out with an asus xonar dg(mistake) and Dt990 250's.  Now I just brought my harmon kardon 254 receiver down and Im using optical out to that as dac and amp.  Wow what a difference haha.   Now Im looking into upgrading to...

I just got my pair of dt990 pros 250 paired with an e11 amp. Down the road I'm looking into adding a full size amp for home use as well. When I look up reviews, a lot of the time I see people suggesting $200-300 amps and others saying those are even inexpensive. My experience has always been...

So I have my eq set up for dt 990's in the xonar dg's audio center.   When I tried playing my Dark side of the moon flac's which are recorded at 96/24 5.1 wouldn't register in the audio center.  The eq wasn't effecting the songs, but it was playing through the soundcard.  I reinstalled the...

Hi. I was wondering if anyone has found a way to either add more eq bands(limited to like 7 bands) and also is their anyway to extend the frequency range at which I can eq? Because it limits me to down to 25hz and up to 20khz and I was wondering if there is anyway to eq past those limits. Thanks!

Hello all!  I just got my Dt990's in the mail and love them! I can tell it needs a better amp and so my e11 is on the way!  I wanted to know whats the best way to use the Asus xonar Dg in my pc with the e11.  Is there a way to bypass the internal amp or do I just have to turn the gain down all...
