I have the O2 Amplifier, with the Asus Xonar DG soundcard (with a built in dac). Hear this buzzing when plugged into the O2, and when its plugged directly into my computer. Wanted to make sure that it wasn't my headphones breaking randomly and they work fine on my iphone.     I've looked...

I have the Beyerdynamic dt990s. I think its the same pad, but in my opinion is very comfortable. Not sure how you thought it was stiff...   I would suggest either Sennheiser HD598 or Sennheiser momentum v2. Both are very comfortable. The momentums you can test out at any best buy / headphone...

So, I'm running the Beyerdynamic DT 990 with the objective 2 amp. No DAC.   I get this static/buzzing/electric sound, not sure how else to describe it, at different volumes for different songs. Sometimes I hear it at 50% volume, sometimes 80%ish. (never really go beyond that, too loud.   I...

I have a Asus Xonar, which is a dac/amp. Would it be better to connect the O2 to the xonar, or to my computer directly?

Thank you 

Do I have to go to a computer store or something and buy a 3.5 to 3.5 headphone jack, connect the computer it to the amp, then connect my headphones to the amp?   Edit*   Or a usb to 3.5?  ...

Sorry, I might be dumb or something. Got the Objective 2 amp and I can't figure out how I can connect it with my computer. I didn't have the money to spare on a dac, but I have the Asus Xonar soundcard which has a dac that I wanted to test out with the O2's.   If connecting to the...

Ugh, shipping is so far away, but canceling the product and ordering it would cost like $60 more dollars. Not sure if thats worth for faster shipping.   Few months later, I'll get a random package of the O2 b/c i forgot i even ordered it lol

I love how all the negative comments towards the O2 come after I purchase it. 

Ok :)

Went with the o2 sale, thx ppl

Ok, I'm confused yet again after reading more comments, I live in Canada. What do you guys think of this drop?

I was actually looking at that already, but the comments put me off. Apparently its a portable version or something, with a weaker power adapter (from what I can tell, half as powerful, 110V when regular is 220V)        "Cancelled my order. I think this is still a good deal but the lack of...

Looking for a $130 max + shipping and tax amp. If a slightly higher priced one is noticeably much better, then I'll go for it. But I would much rather keep the price below $130.     Keep in mind the awful US to CAD conversion rate is $1.32 per $1.00 USD. 

Looking to buy an amp for my Beyerdynamics DT 990's. So far, I've been using the Asus Xonar DG headphone Amp & PCI 5.1 audio soundcard. Gets to good-ish volume, but it never gets past a certain point. It has a smart volume boost for low audio files, but it adds A LOT of static.    Also, I...

Asus xonar DG headphone Amp & PCI 5.1 audio card.   Yes, I disabled it. It has 3 modes - <32ohms, 32~64ohms, >64ohms. It wasn't exactly designed to run such a powerful cans, but it's gotten it to go to a moderate volume.    I'm also looking to buy from a dealer, not second hand or used...

Which is better to power my DT990, and future cans.   I have an Asus Xonar I can hook up to the chain.

No loss in quality right? I still haven't ordered this yet but I could get an amp/Dax like fiio 10 and bypass the soundcard, if that's the case

I have the Asus Xonar DG and I'm about to order the Schiit Magni 2. My DT990 is about to arrive soon. Wondering how I hook up an amp to a soundcard before I order the Magni.  

Both the Fiio E11k and the Schitt Magni (original anyway) are along the same price, but do they give similar applifications? - Is what I'm asking basically. Is the Magni superior to the Fiio E11k? I keep hearing the Magni is the only amp you'd ever need (under most circumstances). Also, does the...

Thinking about the Fiio E11k, but would I benefit more from a pure desktop amp? I will rarely use the amp portably. Would Schitt magni or a Fiio 10 for example be better?   This amp would be used with my Beyerdynamic dt990, Not even sure if I'm getting the Shure se215 now because the price...

First off, thank you for recommending that, didn't know about KZ. What is the difference between all the KZ editions? I see like 8 different versions, all bordering the same pricerange. Also, do you happen to have a Shure SE215 to compare this to? Probably not a fair comparison, so lets keep it...

Build quality is defiantly a priority in my opinion with IEM's. I often forget mine in my pockets and step on my pants, or they'll come loose and smash onto cement. Little things like that are generally why I haven't spent much more than $50 on earbuds thusfar.   My most recent pair, Panasonic...

Is Shure SE215 still the leader of ~$100 earbuds? I've been browsing the forums for a while and it seems like they were the best for several years, but they came out in 2011 and its 2015 now. Has any new In-ear surpassed it yet?
