Headphoneus Supremus! Yay!
I have spent ~$200.
I have got CX300's still, Livewires, a USB soundacard (U Control), a broken cmoy, a working cmoy, a 4gb DAB D2, a Broken screen'd 4gb non-dab D2, an ALO Cryo IC, 2 pairs of stock cowon buds (comfy), 3x 8gb Adata class 6 sdhcs, MX500 buds, and an Etymotic case.
I have sold ER6i's and lots of tips, but unfortunatley they never turned up im told. Should have insisted on extra money for recorded shipping, live and learn! Going through the claims/insurance process now.
I have tried a Supermacro 3 and tested my therories on amped vs unamped, with my setup, lossy vs lossless difference amped and unamped. Thanks to Steven Kelby, soon i will be able to form my theories about cables and whether the change is more noticable than what i found with lossy vs lossless amped vs unamped and normal lossy music amped vs unamped.
This is thanks to some great people, and some great trades.
I will pay back to the community as you have all helped me as a young'un.
Thanks Head-fi!
I only want to upgrade my U Control DAC, to a Predator, more affordable, or a Pico, for occasional prtable use if the SQ increase warrants the size. Both cost too much for me as a 15 year old student, and justifying is hard too. Apart from that all i want now is a pair of balanced sounding, cheap, comfortable headphones for use at home, probably closed as the tv is distracting. Anything that can be driven easily from the u control, or harder to drive, and use the cMoy. I use my Livewires, MX500's or dads Sony MDRCD-280's. The livewires sound best, but isolate too much for home use, so i cant hear people call me for dinner etc. The MX500's and CD280's dont sound good enough.
Do i get a custom title now?
If not, how do you get it?!
