[size=medium] I’ve gotten a few questions lately about what settings in Fidelia’s FHX headphone processor I'd recommended to start with. In general, I’ve encouraged users to find out what sounds best to them on their own system, but I understand that for first-timers, some more specific examples are useful.
So let’s share some favorite FHX settings! What are you liking on your own music with your headphones?
Here's my own favorite settings listening to a broad range of stuff today--[/size]
Speaker angle between 35°- 60°, depending on how expansive I want the soundstage to feel. 'Prevent Clipping' enabled. ‘Amount’ usually changes album to album:
The Beatles - Abbey Road – 100%
Radiohead - In Rainbows – 65%
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II – 50%
Wilco - The Whole Love – 60%
Dan Romer & Benh Zeitlin - Beasts of the Southern Wild Soundtrack – 70%
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Crosby, Stills & Nash – 75%
Bang On A Can - Music For Airports (Brian Eno) – 100%
Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue – 75%
Setup: MacBook Pro -> Apogee Symphony I/O -> Cranesong Avocet -> Sennheiser HD-600
