    Any bass heads grow to prefer a more neutral sound?

    Nothing wrong with a fun pair of cans, but I'm just wondering; how many of you started out as bass heads and over time grew to prefer a more neutral and honest pair of cans? I've been listening to DT770 pro's for a number of years now, and just got my hands on a pair of 880 pro's today and it...

    M-100 vs DT 770 pro 80

    How does the V Moda M-100 compare to the DT 770 pro in terms of sound signature? I currently have the 770 pro 80, and I like the sound of them, but there is the infamous driver buzz at certain frequencies that I've grown tired of fixing.   M-100 certainly is a lower impedance can than the 770...

    O2+Odac issues

    I just got my O2+Odac last week, and it worked out of the box, but over the last few days it hasn't been working right. The first time it happened I was trying to make a skype call and heard nothing. Turned out that it wasn't just in Skype, it was everywhere, no internet sounds, system sounds...

    o2+odac doesn't work with skype?

    I just got the O2+Odac combo this week, I joined a skype call just a few minutes ago, and I hear nothing. I went into the audio settings and made sure my default was set to the o2, but I hear no sound, despite seeing the little sound meter going up and down in skype. Is this a known issue? I'm...

    Horrible distortion is Schiit stack

    I got the Schiit M&M stack a few weeks ago, usually I just leave it on unless I'm going somewhere for a long time. Today I sat down after lunch and had horrible distortion in the right ear. It was an awful static hiss with popping sounds. What ended up fixing it was removing the modi's usb...

    Does Schiit stack come with required cables?

    I'm assuming they come with their power adapters, but other than that what cables will I have to get separately?

    sound signature of DT770 pro 80 vs Fidelio X1/28

    I've been listening to the Beyer's for a while now, but recently the Philips Fidelio X1 has caught my eye. They were recommended in another thread, and I'm curious to try an open back headphone, because I never have before.   However, $230 is kind of steep. If the sound signature or sound...

    Would I notice a difference in quality upgrading from Xonar DG to O2+Odac?

    I have a pair of dt770 pro 80 headphones, the DG can drive them okay, the volume has to be kind of high but they still sound good. I've asked about other amps before, but what I'm really curious about is the DAC. The Xonar DG is a 35 dollar sound card, while the j2labs stuff is well over a...

    Amp to go with Xonar DG and DT770 pro 80

    I tried to revive an old thread of mine in the beginner section with this question, but it didn't get any hits, I think it would be better to ask here.   I just got the DT770 80 yesterday and they sound pretty good through my Xonar DG, but I noticed that the volume has to be cranked up a lot...

    Looking for $100-$150 headphones mainly for electronica

    ***UPDATED QUESTION***   So I ended up going with the dt770 80 ohm version, because I found a pair cheaper than I could get the 32 version for. They just came today and they sound awesome and are super comfortable, but I want more.   Right now I have a Xonar DG, I don't really use dolby...
