Hello all. I managed to get myself into the Massdrop Sennheiser HD 6XX drop and I think I'm going to be pretty happy with the results. I've already got a pair of Sennheiser PC 363D headphones that have what look to be the similar padding and I love their comfort. These came with a small USB...

Below $100 AU preferably Okay so I scored a deal on some HD600's and they will be my first "audiophile" headphones, so I have no clue what to get for them. Should I get a sound card? An amp or dac or both? Or should I go without anything at all?! It's all very confusing and expensive. I really...

Bought Logitech G533, I thought there would have been less wireless static, they're being returned in the next few days. **Budget** - £100~ (Situated in the UK) **Isolation** - Whatever works best with Virtual 7.1. (I've heard Open Back are best. **Public Use** - No **Preferred Type of...

So last month I bought the Schiit Magni2 and Modi2 stack, and while I do enjoy my Sennheiser HD598 open backs, I feel I could be powering ‘grander’ sounding headphones, perhaps in the 300ohms range. My HD598 do have a nice spirited sound, when paired to the Schiit stack, however I feel there...

Setup = Logitech Z 5500 5.1 computer speakers out of an Xbox One using an optical connection. Problem - Everything worked up to a few days ago, then my center speaker stopped playing. 1st test of equipment = I switched the front left speaker to the center output of the amp and the center...

Hi, I'm looking for some new headphones because I have been using some Sony MDR XB950AP's for the past few years and had all 4 pairs I've owned break on me in the same way and I'm tired of the poor build quality. I'm currently using some turtle beach headphones and the music quality is god...

First, I own the Chord Mojo but heard it may be underpowered for the Eikons but couldn't really confirm this elsewhere; So, I'm currious if anyone has experience with the pairing and not just power wise but sound wise too. Second if it is underpowered, what amp would ya'll recomend for the...

Hello all, I am currently in the market for a new pair of cans for around $200 (I unfortunately can't go much higher than that) and would like some help deciding at pair to buy. I've been researching for a while and have been having trouble deciding with all the options in this price bracket. I...

Hello Everyone! I'm looking for a new high end dap and have so far narrowed it down to the three listed in the thread title. Though I'm open to be convinced if there's another equal choice out there. I tend to like more of an analytical sound over a warm signature. The dap doesn't have to have...

So. I've always enjoyed my music and have clearly seen the difference between say 20-30 dollar earbuds from Walmart to maybe Xiaomi hybrids or recently Shure 215ltds. The issue is I'm looking for the next step up but I'm not sure it's going to get much better. I took a couple lossy tests like...

Hi, I am planning on buying a DT990 Pro 250ohm headset and need to know which Dac/Amp to buy for it. I want the design to be simplistic. I liked these but i dont know it they are good enough to drive the DT990's...

For my first thread, here's something i hope is not to difficult. About 3 years ago, i bought a rare 60s all in one portable record player for $50 not working and for awhile, i was using an 80s kids player but the sound was not what i was looking for but the straw that broke the camel's back...

I wanna add warmth to my fav iDSD BL>iCan SA. Planning to iDSD BL>TUBE preamp>iCan SA. Any recommendation?

Hi, After my first post I got recommended to get some better, more durable IEM's. I am looking for ones with a good strong cable, no easy cable breaks etc. And some good sound. I like them to have a warm sound with some good bass. My budget is about €40 and thats stretching it. The ones I...

Hi all! I am new here but have two questions for you, hopefully anyone can help. I have had the same problem with the cable breaking twice, one pair one earbud doesnt work anymore. I have another pair of Creative EP-630 but the cable broke just at one earbud and at the Y split. The audio still...

Hello everyone, I'm new to Head-Fi and also the audiophile community in general. And already I'm lost :sweat_smile: So, I've owned a Fiio X1 with a pair of RHA T10s for a bunch of Years now and I was very pleased with both, but my lovely DAP is nearing its end(Battery life around 1.5 hours...

I bought a 5998 of ebay and it's not sounding anything like what I've read about... So I'm just curious if they're not broken in or if they're fake.

Hi, I travel 75% of the time for work. Flying twice a week on average, and staying in hotels. I am looking for a good set of headphones that travel well, and are preferably have the option of both wired and bluetooth so that I can pair them with my phone to watch movies / music during the...

Hello! Started off with basic apple headphones many years ago, then moved up to skullcandy ink'd and thought they were great (At the time). After going though about 5-6 pairs of those with wire issues, I finally got a pair of Senso Activebuds S-250 the other day, to avoid further wire problems...

I have an HD 598 which I use with Fiio E17k, absolutely love the sound. However, most of the music I listen to is along the lines of Flume/Weeknd/Synth/Massive Attack etc. (electronic trippy pop). Ever since I bass boosted my 598's I love the way they sound, but I'm wondering if it's worth it...

Hello. I'm rather new here, even though I'm quite inexperienced with all things audio and Hi-Fi equipment I have a slightly above beginner understanding for over the ear headphones such as the industry standard mid tier mdr 7506 and the niche bass head cans sz2ooo to know that most of the music...

Hi and thanks for taking a look, I am a soon-to-be college student who will be studying in London, and I have a pressing need for a pair of headphones for commuting (it takes around 25 minutes to walk from my hall to my school) and the library. Because I only work part-time and I am trying to...

Hi, I've been trying to decide between these two headphones, and I would like to hear some pros and cons about each of them, or you can recommend me different headphones. BTW, my total budget is $300 (can be bigger IF it's really worth it) Thanks.

Hi, First of all I'd like to thank in advance for your time spent helping me. I have the following doubt. I'm planning on buying some audio gear to listen to my vinyl collection and I was wondering if it will all work together without any problems or if I should get something different. I put...
