PC 2.0 speakers inquery
That's really expensive for me though. Do you recommend a 2.0 set no higher than 150? I don't need reference speakers or monitors, just something that has a solid frequency range without serious dips or rises in its spectrum, and a treble adjustment on the speakers.- Laeknishendr

PC 2.0 speakers inquery
So, I've been using these old Altec Lansing 2.0's for as long as I can remember for almost 10 years for my PC use and they decided to die finally when enough of the wires started coming apart. Long story short I'm in need of a new pair of 2.0 speakers.I would try to do some wire splicing and...- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
I guess what i mean is.. the headphones naturally do well with its mids and highs and good sound stage, thanks to design. But its design causes a lsck of bass volume. Bass at almost all levels is tight, it sounds controlled and not muddy. Bass was never my emphases for the cans. This is just me...- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
When i mean flex, i mean by flexing so much back and fourth, that i can hear the drivers hitting against the housing, or pushing them too hard. When i get close to this level of undistorted bass levels and high volume, it drowns out all the other frequencies some. So, i made sure i set the EQ...- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
Yeah i will. But ill also be tinkering with the tracks gain, and low frequency EQs as well to get a good set and see how it is. If i bass boost by EQing i always make sure i turn the gain down to where it gives no distortion,and set my playback volume low and slowly increase to see how it sands...- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
Thank you a lot for that info. It gave me insight into things i didnt know of. Im glad my budget phone has good sound on it. Ill probably go for this amp then perhaps. What could you elaborate on for the amp in question though? Have you owned it, and if so whst did you think of its sound?- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
I read here a little bit and saw a short conversation on another post about the sampling rates of the onboard dacs on phones can suck some, depending. So, a DAC could alleviate some of the quality reductions, but only some. Still, if there's a gain to be had with the addition of a DAC, I'd like...- Laeknishendr

Portable amp/dac for android & headphones
TLDR Is at bottom I'm searching for a portable Amp and Dac combo. I've been using Sennheiser Hd 518s for a year or so now, and they've held up to all the music I play through them, so I may get another pair down the road. Some may even say I probably don't need to Amp them or Dac them as...- Laeknishendr

Sennheiser HD518 HD558 HD598 HD559 HD589 HD579 HD599 Support Thread
Yes my friend recommended the E07K, so it's one I probably will be set on trying to get. Will just take some time though.. I can live without actual speakers but, no sound at all is a huge bummer, since I listen to music on a very regular basis, it's my addiction which my cans brought out...- Laeknishendr

Sennheiser HD518 HD558 HD598 HD559 HD589 HD579 HD599 Support Thread
I have to commend these headphones for what they do. I don't have good headphones to pair them to, but one of my friends helped me get a pair of HD 518's and at first they sounded pretty great compared to what I used to listen to with headphones that have little impedance and are cheapos at...- Laeknishendr

HD 518 teardown - with a shocking twist!
I have a pair of these. The soundstage opens up a bit more when you remove the grill, but the volume of bass decreases, even though the quality of it is still retained. It's the oppisite when you put the grill back on. The 518's at least to me, already sound very impressive enough when fully...- Laeknishendr
