I’m addicted to headphones and amp/dac setups.I had the “hd 58x” for about year and half and I like them in gaming, but in music listening it doesn’t give me that high detailed sound or separation between the instruments that I prefer. I decided to keep them for gaming and look for another pair...

On the market for a headphone under $1000, done a lot of research but curious what some of you guys/gals would recommend. For added info I currently have modded M1060C's (open) as my primary headphone and love the extension into the bass/sub-bass bass, but would like a pair of cans with more...

I'm looking to run the M1060 off an external amp. Currently it's being fed by the onboard audio of a Clevo P775DM3 laptop. It does have an amp, but it sounds very mediocre(my LG V30 drives other headphones better). I'd like something with a relatively small form factor. It will be always plugged...

Hello Head-fi forum, I am relatively new to the audiophile world and have some questions regarding an issue I've run into. My current setup are the M1060s and Schiit Magni 3 amp/Modi Multibit 3 DAC fed by optic cable (S/PDIF). My Audio source is FLAC files and HQ spotify. I also have a FiiO...

Hello All, I recently purchased a Monoprice M1060, and am curious about amp pairings. My current desktop set-up is a Fiio e10k as a DAC into a Massdrop O2 (I picked up both used, and relatively cheap). I'm wondering if there would be any noticeable benefits to getting a more powerful amp with...

The $100 balanced amp market only has a few options like the SMSL or Loxie but none afaik are dual mono and battery powered. But one can buy 2 of the Behringer P1s for $100. http://i66.tinypic.com/flm49z.jpg They are battery or supply powered and with 2 of them that should be dual mono. I...

I'm looking into getting M1060s as my first true hifi experience and I was wondering if they would be significantly hindered by using on a tube amp (Little Dot MkII) and if so, how exactly the sound would change. I've heard planars don't work best on tube, but I found a good combo deal and would...

I get a used new pair of the M1060. Now i want to Mod it too for better Sound performance. I found this Video for the known "Fazor Mod": Also i found this Post on Reddit: https://www.google.de/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/6dt6e1/the_miserly_monoprice_monolith_m1060_mod/ For...

Hello all, It has been a while since my last official Head-Fi entry, but today, I have a good one that will hopefully spark up a good discussion. This year has seen the widespread release of the Monoprice Monolith M1060 planar magnetic headphones. Upon its release, the immediate response was...

Hi all, have been lurking forever and am super excited to be replacing Polk 4Shots with my 1060s (modded with Vegan pads/paper towle)! I have a couple of questions, figure someone here might be able to help me out? I am buying a used Astro Mixamp Pro TR for Xbox One tomorrow - will that be...

So I did a video recently showing how to mod M1060 with Fuzzor and Vegan pads also providing measurements to show this improvement over stock. I had a lot of people telling me to take the foam disks out of the back though so I decided to do some experiments and take measurements along the way...

So I just watched a review saying the iSine10 sounded as good as the Monolith M1060 and would be more flexible since you don`t have to wear only at home. I found some contradictions regarding sound leakage also, some saying is not a big deal unless you blast sound trought them which you...

Hi, help me to choose! I know, they are really different, but I am switching from an HE-400i and can't decide. Both are about the same price (with amp and dac). I'd like to go with the L-300, but I fear it doesn't have enough bass (at least 400i quantity). As for the M1060, after listening to...

Anyone know anything about these? They look like a Hifiman interbred with an Audeze!   http://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=120&cp_id=12009&cs_id=1082302&p_id=16050&seq=1&format=2     Due at the end of October from what I can gather. They're also launching a $199 planar headphone, the...
