i using firmware #7

What would pair better with these, Audeze LCD-2s or HE-500s? I like flat response to 20hz and even lower if possible. I think a jergpad modded HE-500 would nail the sound I'm looking for. Just need to save up.

Does anyone else have this issue with their 11.32? When you start the playback of a music track, there is a loud pop in the left channel before the music starts playing.
 
I made sure that it was persistently left channel (by cable swapping tests), and it's a very loud pop on 32-bit, and quieter but still audible pop on 24-bit/16-bit.

I have this as well.

would try to check this.
 
one thing I noticed with the internal amp is that there's sound even though the volume is at the minimum setting (fully counter clockwise) using a 600 ohm headphone.

You sure can, sounds great.

so its a black background? I have both orthodynamics and sensitive IEMs, can i use both? is it just a gain switch?

IEMs can sometime pick up a little background noise when no music is playing, but it's not too troublesome.

confirmed, I also have this pop [foobar2000 + WASAPI (event)]

So it seems as though the "pop at the beginning of music playback" is a fairly prevalent issue with the 11.32. Hope we figure out a solution, and an official word about it.

Yes, there is a slight pop at the beginning of playback and when I skip around in a song. To me, it is a non issue, but if a fix did come around, I'd install it if it didn't affect sound quality. I use Via ASIO, so it doesn't matter what you use.
 
Of course, now that it has been pointed out, I can't "un-hear" it. I would have rather stayed in ignorant bliss.

This is very disappointing. I'm about to order this unit. Those with this problem, are you using very new models, or older ones?
 
And has anyone contacted Audio-gd to ask them for a comment on this?

 

[xnuthecaveman]

It's not annoying actually. I noticed it only after jerg mentioned it.

Mine is a new one just got it last week, so maybe it only affects units after May 15?

Let's wait for kingwa's reply
