Hello everybody,

I have recently bought these cans and absolutely love them. Portable, durable, liking the sound a lot for the money I paid. My only issue is that there is a noticable difference in sound when I listen to music from a PC and my Huawei P10lite phone.

Drives me crazy sometimes because I know these headphones can do much better. Is there a phone tweak to
fix this or is the phone just unable to drive these cans as they deserve to be driven? In that case would you recommend a portable audio source to me that would manage to do exactly that?

Regards,
Timothy

I had M50´s years ago and i dont think that they would require miracles. Audio chips on cheaper Huaweis just might not the best ones, i think i noticed a small increase in SQ after switching from Honor 4X to my current phone Honor 10. Any halfway decent portable amp should drive them without problems.

The M50 is pretty easy to drive. Maybe your motherboard has a built in amp? Some have them built in.
