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...

Hello everyone! I just joined, and this is my first post, so bear with me. Also, brevity is not my strong suit, so be warned that this may be a bit lengthy, though I feel it's necessary here. I've had the Sennheiser HD 280 PRO for about eight years, and I'm looking to replace it. The headphones...

I need a mic to talk to friends when I am playing games, but I hate using over the ear headsets; for me, they are uncomfortable, they give me a headache, and they hurt my ears after a while. My problem is that over the ear headsets are the only way I know of to have a sidetone, I cannot use a...

Hello all, I am looking for my first set of in-ear monitors, but they are to be used in a somewhat peculiar situation, so here we go. I work in a physics/materials science laboratory, and there is a constant medium-loud drone from turbo pumps (ultra-high vacuum system). I would like to listen...

I've been looking and scouring for a pair of headphones that are tailored to my tastes, yet everything seems to have some downsides. My preference for sound is something warm, and more of a focus on prominent mids and rich lows. The one pair of headphones that I've been looking at were the...

Hi! So, I'm looking for a setup complete with a pair of cans, a dac, and an amp. Preferably, keep it down to $300 as much as possible, I can't go any further than that. To be clear, I'm going to use the setup mainly for gaming and listening to music. As I spend most of the day with headphones...
