    Using TASCAM DR-05 as External mic?

    I recently switched from a Nokia Lumia Icon to the fairly new Galaxy S6 and the Microphones for recording on the Lumia Icon was so good. It was clear had, no distortion in any frequencies no matter how loud the sound got and ect. I used this to record videos of me playing drums to evaluate my...

    Worst recorded/Mastered Albums

    Honestly, anything with mass amounts of clipping and distortion and would be on the list of poor mastering/worst mastering

    Reply to review by 'cobaltius' on item 'Audio-Technica ATH-M40x'

    @Sonic Defender    Hey, nice review, I just ordered these guys, specifically for portable uses and for a close-back pair. (Didn't want to keep using my HD 598's for portable use)   I was wondering since you play drums? Do you have an acoustic or electric, because I bought these also to practice...

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    I'm thinking of saving up for the HD 800's? How would that be compared to the HD 600   I heard the HD 800 has an annoying peak around the 5.5-6K so I will probably do the Anaxilus mod to flatten the frequencies down a bit

    Sennheiser HD 600's unamped sound no different then amped?

    I've heard the Schiit Mojo and Gungnir combo is great with the HD 600's especially when making the HD 600's balanced. I've read that it is just mind blowing.

    Sennheiser HD 600's unamped sound no different then amped?

    Would the HD 600 be good with that combo though. I told myself that everything above that combo is overkill for them   You don't consider the HD 600's flagships?

    I want the Mjolnir and Gungnir combo   Oh and actually I don't know if you want to do this, but is it possible if you can look up a song or two on spotify or something and describe to me how it sounds?  Jawbox - Chicago Piano Jawbox - Reel   Two tracks from Jawbox's "For Your Own Special...

    Sennheiser HD 600's unamped sound no different then amped?

    Do you guys think the HD 600 would preform really well with high end stuff, like with the Schiit Mjolnir? How about balanced?

    Sennheiser HD 600's unamped sound no different then amped?

    Unamped they sound the same as amped so, the Bass is very clean, has good punch, mids sound neutral and dont seem to have color and are also pretty detailed and clear, treble is very detailed depending on what tracks I listen too and music genre, treble is pretty airy and the headphones do sound...

    Sennheiser HD 600's unamped sound no different then amped?

    I have been using the HD 600's for over 5 months now, and when I use them unamped they sound they same as they are amped? I'm using the Asgard 2 and Modi, and I also have the FiiO E07K, still no difference?

    How exactly does an amp effect sound?

    Phone's, Computer audio, and this Bose music player   I mean I can tell differences between 320 kbps mp3 and FLAC/AAC/CD

    How exactly does an amp effect sound?

    Wanna know something strange in my experience?   Unamped HD 600 for me sounds no different than amped HD 600's///   Maybe I'm stupid or just need to try some higher end stuff....

    Can listening to music way to much actually ruin ears in the long run?

    Said the same thing but what about a driver literally sitting less then a cm away from your ear instantly playing sound?   Makes perfect sense, maybe that's the reason why we all lose hearing at older age, because the sounds around us every single day?

    Can listening to music way to much actually ruin ears in the long run?

    I was told by various amounts of people that listening to music way to much and long actually can ruin ears. I asked them "even if the headphone offers no fatigue and sounds smooth?" and they said that it doesn't matter because the sound waves travel through and over time deteriorates your ear...

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    Very happy with my HD 600's its just I guess I want slightly smoother sound but not a frequency roll off. Its weird because sometimes that album sounds amazing and it isn't edgy at all.   About the amp, I want to be as neutral as possible I just don't like coloration in my music. Thanks for...

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    Got it on CD Spotify actually sounds really good. I cant notice a difference what so ever. It literally sounds like CD to me, coming from someone who can recognize 320 kbps mp3 vs AAC/FLAC   But I wonder how that whole album sounds on tubes

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    Now you know why I want a new DAC.    Sounds very grainy, loud and aggressive with the HD 600's.  There's a dip in mid range, so if you have bass heavy headphones its all sub.   You may say get a tube amp. But since it is the way the mastered it, its always good to have that terrible edgy...

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    A little off topic but can someone look up Jawbox - "Chicago Piano" and "Reel" on spotify or something and describe to me how it sounds? Theres 2 editions of the album shoot for the original and tell me how it sounds

    No difference in sound when trying various amps??!?!?!

    Well my goal is by the time I graduate high school I can maybe get my hands on the Schiit Mjolnir and Gungnir form the Schiit Asgard 2 and Modi.

    Yggdrasil: A (P)review - Two days of paradise

    Going crazy over DAC's since this thread. I went and tested my dads GMC Yukan amp and DAC thing in the back seats (The thing inbetween both of the front seats where you store CD's). It allows you to plug headphones into it of course. Cool thing is I noticed a difference. It sound lifeless...
