    Question about the Soundmagic E10s

    I just got my first pair of decent headphones, the Soundmagic E10s after I they were recommended here. I bought them because of their reputation for good bass while still retaining a clear sound. However, it seems like there's no bass at all unless I use the bass boost effect on my Nexus 4 or...

    HD681 with Ipod Nano 2gen. Output impedance?

    Does anyone know the output impedance of the 2nd Gen Ipod Nano? I am looking to get a friend the HD681 headphones but their impedance is a mere 32 ohms which means that if the 2nd gen nano has a high output impedance, and I expect it does, then the audio will be affected. I've tried searching...

    Headphones for - a-hem - mature acoustic/semi-acoustic music?

    I hope this is an okay question, being almost kind of personal but that would hopefully invoke some of the good people here's knowledge and experience. I could seek out places to listen and will, but some thoughts to chew on first would be good.   These are the headphones I've got and a...

    Apple Earpods Review

    The Apple Earpods are packaged wonderfully. A step up from the cheap plastic wrap that Apple used to use. These are packaged in a wonderful plastic box, expertly wound to exhibit all of the plastic craftsmanship and quirky design. These definitely are better than the old Apple earbuds. For...

    Fiio E5 - Crackling/Static when charging

    It's been mentioned sporadically from what I've searched but is this a problem for most owners thus far? Reason being is I'd like to get an exchange before time runs out if it isn't. When charging through usb (red light comes on), I'll get random crackling, static, sometimes a faint hum...

    Will a FiiO E5 improve Sennheiser 205HD's?

    Just wondering if the FiiO E5 would improve the sound quality of Sennhesier 205HD's played from an iPod. I believe they're 32ohms. I was hoping to get my girlfriend something to get better quality sound and a good bass boost. If there is something better for a good price like the E5 I'm all...

    FiiO e5 or FiiO e6

    I have a pair of Ultimate Ears 600 (UE 600 if you will) and while the headphones sounds truly phenomenal, they do lack a bit of punchy bass. The bass and low frequencies are still clearly there, but the bass is just not punchy. So, for overall sound quality and performance, which amp would be...

    DJ Audio Interfaces vs. audiophile DACs

    Hi folks,   I was wondering why people spend so much money on their DAC for a headphone while DJs fill clubs with sound using audio interfaces. Generally, they seem to cost more, but there are audio interfaces for 600 bucks that give you 10 channels. So on the price, the DJ audio interfaces...

    Samsung Galaxy 10.1 + Fiio E07k Andes????

    Hello everyone I have been using my Samsung Galaxy 10.1 to listen to music. I am not a super complicated guy. I can settle for good sound. I don't need outstanding sound just yet.

    Ultimate Ears 600, pair them with the FiiO e5 or FiiO e6 amps?

    First post here :) Question is in title. I have heard the UE 600's have great sound but lack a bit of bass (still very present just not what they're "praised" for) and I have seen that the e5 and e6 amps offer bass boosting and sound quality as a whole. Problem is, some say the e5 has better...

    Will a low-end portable amp boost the sound quality of my noise cancelling headphones in passivem mode?

    Hi All,   First off, I am not an audiophile. I like good music and I fly a lot. Therefore I decided to buy headphones with active NC (I have done my research and know I sacrifice some sounds quality for the NC). So I have bought the ATHC-AND7b (price/quality better than the bose QC imho)...

    Best universal IEM for $100-$150 to be paired with Pandora/MOG/Spotify and amped by a Fiio E5

    Pretty much what the title says. I've no interest in carrying a pair of headphones around with me when I'm on the go but I'd still like something that sounds good and isolates well. My primary source of mobile music these days is Pandora and MOG (MOG is apt to be replaced by Spotify when it...
