I would have been forever alone too if not for the... extreme measures I took![]()
mechgamer:
From my experience running all my music through a real time spectrum analyzer and compressor, sibilance is a wideband phenomenon and can center on anywhere from 3-10k to boot:
An example that sorta supports your supposition, sibilance centered around 10k but note the wide area it affects. This from a female anisong singer.
An example of sibilance at much lower frequencies, in the 5-10k range
I use the compressor to limit all frequencies to levels below the red line. Faded line is spectrum of original sound stream, solid yellow line is spectrum of filtered sound stream.
Phones with smooth high frequency response helps but for recordings with inherent sibilance nothing helps more than a real time analyzer and compressor like this![]()

Not going to lie. I just swap headphones or listen to better mastered music.
You make it look like you listen to 'sound', not music.![]()

Sometimes I wonder, "how could the recording engineersssss missssss thesssssssse massssssssssive sibilancesssssssss?".
New Hayate no Gotoku... YAY! I can't wait to finally see Athena in all her glory, especially if they animate End of the World.
If you want two inputs to dac, you plug one in usb and one in coaxial. I do not know which one is the preferred one. So if both are plugged in. I dont know which one it will chooseHere's a noob question that I might just better off dead than asking
To get input from other source, I need to plug into thecorxcoax is it? Then, I have to find a converter from male coax to female 3.5mm is it (if that even exixt that is)?
Also, the DAC out and AMP in uses RCA right?

But no. 3.5mm regular analog audio out cant work with coaxial.
