Hi, I'm going to get 6XX headphones and a DROP AAA 789 amp. Currently I have 58X headphones, Z625 speakers, and a Grace SDAC Balanced (I'm going to use this dac to feed the 789). If I only use the balanced input, will it still output from the SE? Or does the balanced input only output to the...

As per Drop's it's supposed to be plug and play. Turns out, I found another usb cable around the house and tried it out. Now it's been confirmed, it was the usb cable all long, I can't believe this lol. Thank you so much for the help and feedback!

Hi I just got myself a Grace SDAC Balanced, still pending to get an amp. When I set it to USB 1 it works just fine, but on USB 2.0 is not working. I'm on the current latest version of windows 10 (Version 21H2) . How do I get it to work?

I made the dumb mistake of not unplugging one of the left satellite on my Z625 while trying to move my subwoofer to another position, breaking the metal cover of that speaker's plug. If I just put the cover back in and plug it back in the subwoofer it works, but if I try to unplug the satellite...

Well if you're a competitive gamer and care about input/output latency, you can't afford to use those devices as they introduce lag. They are fine when you just want to listen to music, not when you want to play competitively.

What about the ones that aren't using an external DAC and are just plugging the headphones / speakers directly to the computer?

What did you conclude with your experiment? :thinking:

I was considering the Monoprice Monolith MM-3 but those seems to cut out at low listening levels. So I'm currently looking at the Fluance AI40. Any advice on this matter? Any recommendations or suggestions? It would be really appreciated.

I guess I found my answer on the "Questions & Answers" section of these speakers site: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=35374

Saw a review on amazon of someone complaining about it. Can someone confirm if this is true for these speakers? Or maybe this person just got a defective unit?

As i was doing some research I came across a post (Which I can't seem to find again) where some people said uninstalling OEM drivers (If I remember correctly, in this case they were talking about the Audio Drivers that came with a Dell laptop) and just using Windows Audio Drivers gave them...

Thanks for the reply! I just checked the specs file for my laptop and found this: Audio Controller Realtek ALC3223 Will that be enough?

So I have been reading that the HD 6XX works without an amp, (Source: A guy talking about that here on reddit), can some of the knowledgeable people from this forum confirm me this please? It is a big deal to me because I play rhythm games, so I need to avoid dac/amps to achieve the least...

Hello there, I'm Misael, I have no audio equipment (yet), and I don't know mcuh about audio but the topic piqued my interested and so here I am. -Misael

After browsing amazon for a while and seeing that the price of a behringer UM2 has inflated so much, I'm currently considering a M-Audio AIR 192|6 (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YYX7K6R). Which I think is kinda overkill for my needs right now and for the cheap mic I'm going to use for the time...

Interesting, man thanks for the recommendation!, but since I'm into gaming and I play rhythm games quite a bit, I need wired headphones, and I really wouldn't have an use case for wireless. Also I have been reading about open back being superior because of the soundstage, which is important for...

Sorry for the late response. Buying them used? I thought getting them new was a thing with headphones because of the drivers and stuff like that. Actually I found someone selling a 598 SR used for about 120. So if that's the case, might go down that route then. So it doesn't matter?

Hi, I'm new to all audio related. Just wanted to get good headphones and ended up coming across what Hi-Fi is. I mainly listen to music and do some gaming, and would like to make my introduction into this world of high fidelity audio with the best headphones my budget can afford for my first...
