Just got the OK3 and have some questions.
I just got the OK3 in over the weekend and have used them for about an hour and I am pretty disappointed with them. The bass is real weak when I have them in ear bud mode. I have to push them in my ear with my fingers to get any bass out of them. Could it be that my ears are just too small or is...- Tb311

Zero or Super Pro 707 DAC?
I like the Zero and I probably would have gotten it already if weren't for the fact that its lacking a USB input. I will use my desktop pc as my source and it does have an optical out so I don't really need the USB but it would be nice to have. So which one would be a better source for the MKV...- Tb311

Reusing Connectors?
I was wondering if there are any problems reusing connectors? I recently made some mini to mini cables for the first time and I was wondering if I could just desolder them and reuse them again? Does this have any effect on the final sound quality of the cables?- Tb311
