Hi, So I was wondering how much should I spend on the power amp as my Stello HP 100 is worth $1000 and what are good models to match with it ? I know Stello also makes the S100 power amp but I can't find no review. Thanks !

So I tried to configure my Stello DA100 DAC to work with Asio4All on Foobar but when I go into Asio Virtual Devices, I don't see anything but "Not Connected 1" and "Not Connected 2". Then I go into Configure (to the right of "Driver : ASIO4ALL v2") and I see it : USB Audio DAC but then it says...

Basically I'm looking for another pair of phones that would have great SQ but also a very different sound signature so that I could choose depending on my moods and music genres. It could be phones that do great where the HD650's don't and vice-versa, for instance. I was considering Beyer DT...

How do you connect it to a DAC (mine accepts USB, OPT and COAX) ? Thanks !

Hi, after reading several reviews I've finally come to these two : Caliente and HP100. I know that they're not exactly in the same price range because the HP100's price recently jumped but I could get one used so it doesn't matter. I already have the Stello DA100 (non-signature model) so ...

Hi, so I was listening to some movies with my HD650 (without any amp or DAC, just directly to a cheap AV receiver) with high volume and noticed a very harsh scratching sound like a radio in a random frequency when there was very high frequency like a guy screaming very loudly in the movie. It...

Here's something I'm not sure about : Does the soundcard have any importance when using a DAC through USB with a computer ? I mean, is it okay to have the cheapest soundcard ever, will it bypass it ? I know that Asio4All let any sound cards use asio drivers but should I install it even if...

How does the DAC-1 compares to other DACs that have no integrated head-amp : Stello DA100 (and Signature) and MHDT Havana ? I pay for the amp when buying the DAC-1 but does the DAC itself is as good as these ? I already plan on adding a RSA Raptor for later so I don't want to upgrade the...

So I already got these Senn HD650 but I'm looking forward another pair of headphones and I know that the HD's are very amp-dependant so that they have a very big potential to get a better sound with better amp. But is that the same thing with the Darth Beyer aka DT770 or they can have a great...

So I had the right side cable of my Senn HD650 falling off sometimes so I couldn't hear anything but then I would just replace it in and it would work. But now I'm putting it back and I still can't hear. Is there a way to fix this ? I think that the two little pins are not correctly entering...

So I got about $2000 (could be a little bit more or less) for an amp for my Senn HD650, I was looking toward the Benchmark DAC1 but is there something better in that price range ? It's for using with a computer (so Optical Audio or USB) Thank you!

Hi, I bought a new pair of Senn HD650 on ebay this summer and sometimes I hear crackles when I listen to music, especially with my used HeadRoom Total Bithead, but I think I can also hear it without it, so where could the problem comes from, and how can I get it fixed ? It's really annoying.

So I want to know, let's say I listen to music on my computer, what would be the best thing ? Computer to DAC to Headphones or you can put an Amp too like that : Computer to DAC to Amp to Headphones ? Will there be a difference with the amp added ? Does a simple DAC will still...

Hi, I've got some Senn HD650 but I don't know how long I should burn them ? Thanks.

Hi, I have a pair of HD650 and my only source is my Powermac G5, I just want to plug my HD650 in my computer and bypass the mac's sound card, so I think I'd need a DAC, that's right ? Or do I absolutely need a combination of DAC+Amp to bypass the mac's sound card ? My budget would be around...

Hi, as the HD650 has 300ohms impedance, does the HR'S Total Bithead amp is good with these headphones ? The amp : http://www.headphone.com/products/he...al-bithead.php Thanks

Hi, I'im going to invest some money in a headphone system for home use and I found a nice deal on the net ( http://www.headphone.com/products/pa...se-package.php ) that offers the Sennheiser HD650 and an amp called Total Bithead for $599. Here's the amp ...
