I've been using Asgard 2 for more than a year with my HD6XX and I absolutely adore it. I could listen to it for hours and no fatigue at all. About a week back i took to my friend who is a speaker user (not a headphone user) and let him hear it on his Tannoy 15 Inch gold monitors hooked to a...

I have a Schiit Asgard 2 and I love it. All my late evening and night listening sessions were done with it paired with a HD6XX. However I am little concerned over how hot it gets after 1 to 1 1/2 hours of usage. Will this effect the amp negatively in the long run...? it is operated in an air...

I found it on the below URL. If what this image says is correct the cables polarity is wrong. L side is correct and the L emblem should face outward. R side it will be incorrect if the R emblem faces outwards. It is correct when the emblem faces inward but the plug that connect to socket goes in...

I know i am about to talk about pretty old stuff, probably nobody cares. I have a pair of KZ ZS5 which bought about 6 or 7 years back for my portable listening when I go around. They are still with me with upgraded cables and sounds pretty good, but i seldom used them after the covid crisis...

About a week back I bought it from my friend because i was super excited. I live half the world away from Schiit's homeland and to see a schiit asgard 2 was a big huge happy face to me. I wanted to buy a schiit product ever since i got my HD6XX but it was way too expensive to ship them to where...

I will try to make my post easiest as possible. Current gear : - HD6XX + Little Dot MK2 + S.M.S.L M100 MK2 (so you know what i am used to) Purpose : - Music like Jazz, Female Vocals, Movies (when watching it on TV with a BT Transmitter). Budget : - 200$ Max (if gets close and its a...

Will i hear a difference if i compare their sound....? i already own the FX Audio DAC-X6 and i am using it with my HD6XX, I have a chance of buying the O2 ODAC, question is will it make a big difference in the sound compared to DAC-X6? or i should wait (save) and buy a better newer amplifier...

I don't know where my question would fit so I ask it in the full size headphone section. Admins, please feel free to move it anywhere as you please. My question is I have been using HD6XX for almost four years. I love it and it is the only big audiophile headphones I got. I use the FX Audio...

I bought a BLON as a gift for my wife and she is a very careful user yet the cable only lasted for two weeks. The right side went out and the drivers are working. Now I need to buy her a new cable, but I don't know which to choose from...

Today as usual i took them for listening and found out that inner foam membrane that sits between the ear and drivers are worn out. I was little worried because everything regards to this is very expensive and locally not available. Any idea on how to fix it...? Can i use similar material...

Hi everyone, I haven't posted in a while but then again I thought I should ask this question from experts alike. I don't have a dedicated DAP so mainly I carry all my music on the mobile phone. I previously owned a Redmi 5 which I used for like 2 1/2 years and then bought an "Oppo A53" about a...

I am about to solder some resistors and build an artificial central tap to get rid of the unbearable noise of my LD MK2. Im not electronically inclined person so can someone shed a light on my problem please? Does LD MK2 already contain one? 'little dot mk2" has a noise which doesn't go away no...

Hi everybody, I hope everyone is doing good. I have been trying to live with this noise that is coming from my little dot MK 2 for the last 1 1/2 years until I realized it is not its nature, something is wrong with it. What I Tried * Changing tubes / Capping unused ports / New cables / New...

Is the noise on lower impedance on headphones like Monk Plus, KZ ZS5, V.E Bonus IEM, KZ ATR, is normal with LD MKII? , it works perfectly fine with my HD6XX but with all other IEM's there is a noise. Very audible buzzing like noise in the background. Yes sir! I changed the tubes, tried several...

I have been using LD MK2 to power my HD-6XX for almost 11 months now. Recently I noticed that my Dac-X6 is slightly louder and has more oomph than the LD MKII when listening to music like "Muddy Waters - Folk Singer" album. Am I doing something wrong...? I have the lowest gain setting set...

I am not sure if this is supporting this.... does it...? because my DAC-X6 does only support up to 96HZ in 16bit and 24bit using foobar and wasapi.

While i was searching for a cheap way to amplify sound from my LG TV headphone audio out, i stumble upon this little amplifier which i have never heard before. Does anyone use it...? is it good for headphones...? it says 8 ~ 600ohms.

I got my self a pretty basic 43inch LED TV to watch movies and tv shows. This is not even really a smart tv but serves my purpose more than enough. It has a headphone jack and that's it, no toslink or coaxial. So i just connected my HD-6XX and at 75% volume it sounds pretty loud and damn good. I...

I just opened up my FX Audio Dac-X6 and found a OP2134 inside looks pretty legit from the way it looked. Then i got few other OP amp which i would like to try rolling with it but OP2604 looks fake to me. Any idea?

I just got my Little Dot MK II and i am excited. It sounds awesome out of the box with stock tubes paired up with my FX Audio DAC-X6 (as a dac). But however there is a little problem remains. I straight away put the high gain settings on it before starting up with HD6XX because it is 300 ohms...

i would like to know which one is better for HD-6XX. I was going to order MKII because of price and my tight budget but then came across darkvoice which looks pretty good. I would like to know if they have a huge difference in sound quality. I wouldn't want to tube roll anytime sooner so with...

I have finally decided to migrate from my simple mobile phone to a more dedicated source like a DAP and i thought of going for a CAYIN N3 because it says it is compatible with external dac. Price is also pretty good and ships free of charge to my country from aliexpress. I think i can make it...

Hi everybody! i finally got my self a cheapo solution to drive my HD6XX for the time being. I got a FX AUDIO DAC-X6 to drive them with a 3A power supply. Everything sounds good enough for the time being till i be able to afford a bigger better amp someday (Which won't be happening soon because...

I have a pair of 12 year old Philips SBC HP200 with me and i looked for any discussion threads that might be out there, but there is none so i thought of opening one since i am sure one you owns this. I am not much of a technical fella or audiophile. Just love good sound and that's all. I've...
