Is it also likely that speakers such as the Audioengine A5+ will become cheaper as Christmas approaches? Say for example if the cost of those reduced to around £250 it would be worth the wait.   e - I also read about the JBL LSR305s, how would they stack up vs the A5+, and which other models...

If I set up a sub + 2 satellites, how would I set that up with an E10? It looks good value, though I do have a Fiio E18 + E12, how would they compare to the E10's quality?

Hi Head-fi,   Recently my Corsair SP2500 2.1 power board decided to blow out, taking out my Schiit Modi DAC with it (and a motherboard, which I was thankfully able to replace).   I'm now looking for: A replacement speaker system (2.1). I am happy to buy 2 speakers first, then a subwoofer...

Are you sure it's not muted? If you ensure the 'Night Mode' program on the remote is off, then turn subwoofer volume to max, then press in the volume button, that mutes & unmutes it

Ok. I'd test the subwoofer in isolation without the satellites connected to see if it can rumble as it usually does. Then maybe try one satellite then the other just in case one of them is causing an issue.   Beyond that, it's again always worth double checking that everything is properly...

Ah I think we misunderstand each other.   I'm calling the little one shown here in the picture on the right AUX2. You wouldn't get any sound out of that to headphones as it's an input only jack.   What I'm suggesting is plugging an audio source, such as your MP3 player or phone, into this...

Do you mean you plugged the headphones into the headphone jack and it was ok? I think the AUX2 is at the back of the remote.     If you input music from a player into that remote control (I usually use a 3.5mm male to male cable for that) then select AUX2 as the input on the remote, do you...

It's better just to get a clip on microphone and a pair of headphones.   http://en-uk.sennheiser.com/pcv-05   This is what I use to convert mic + headphones into a headset, it's compatible with PS4 and any other scenarios where you only have one 3.5mm jack for both mic and headphones -...

Have you tried using a different power cord and at a different wall socket?   Secondly, if you plug in your phone or MP3 player using the AUX2 input on the remote control and playback music, do you have the same volume issue?

I used the Shure SE215 for two years and thousands of hours when I first went to university. Very rugged, but they have great quality and I'd recommend them.

I don't know about the budget, but just a tip for when you're buying IEMs for the M7 is to avoid very sensitive IEMs as it's commonly reported (and experienced by myself as I have the same phone) that there is more noticeable background noise on quiet parts of a track. When you have the...

Hi,   I'm looking for a step up in quality from what I currently have, which is the over ear Sennheiser Momentum (orange version if that means anything). My current setup for listening is essentially a desktop PC which has foobar2000 installed along with the WASAPI output support. USB 3.0...

        Bought it a few months ago so I'm sure it's already out of date like most PC tech:   PC: Case: Corsair Obsidian 750D PSU: Corsair AX860i Motherboard: Asus Z87 MAXIMUS VI FORMULA CPU: Intel 4770K (@Stock) CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i RAM: Corsair Vengenace Pro Red 16GB (2x8GB @...

My first expensive pair of over-ear headphones, I am very impressed.   Currently own Shure SE353LTDs and Shure SE215s which are IEMs.   Anyway they are so comfortable and that's before the leather has worn in, the packaging was quite nice too, I could upload some pictures if you guys want...

Ah OK, maybe I'll ask my sister if her IPod is that gen and try it out.

Thank you for the suggestion. Do you know about any hiss issues? Regards,

Hello guys,   I recently purchased some Shure SE535 limited edition headphones as an upgrade from my Shure SE215s that I had previously.   I'm loving the headphones and the sound is incredible compared to the 215s, especially the bass and mids.     However here's my issue:   - I...

I have some hissing noise in the background unfortunately (analogue jack).   I would use USB audio out but then I just decided to go and buy an MP3 player anyway. Using Fiio E12 Mont Blanc, Shure SE535 Limited Edition.   Hissing noise was also with Shure SE215s.   But the sound is...

In the UK they seem to be more expensive now than they were 2 years ago   I've only ever bought three IEMs, they were:   Sennheiser CX500 Klipsch Image S4 Shure SE215   All three were amazing but the SE215 just feels so much more balanced. Also the fact it's pretty hard to...

bump. Is my post too confusing for people?

Hello guys,   I've been reading through the reviews/shootout thread for portable amps already, as I've been considering buying a portable headphone amplifier (and DAC?) to get a bit more bass out of my headphones.   Currently my set up on the go is this:   HTC One Shure SE215  ...
