Hey! I just got my ATH-A900 from audiocubes.com... I'm kinda curious about how to burn-in my headphones. I read Burn-in FAQ and that after periodic playing of music, the sound changes slightly and makes the headphones sound much better.
I'm curious at what volume to use when I burn in the headphones. I listen to jpop like hamasaki and utada and I play alot of video games (Counter-Strike, World of Warcraft, GTR2, I'm a big kid). I noticed that when I listen to music, I cant turn my headphone up all the way cause the bass gets all crumbly and crummy.
Does sound from the headphone come out all crumbly when you turn it up all the way? Is it natural? I hope I didn't get a defective one. Would burning it in make it sound better at higher volume or let it reach a higher volume without crumbling the music? Like the bass gets all crumbly. What volume level should I use to burn in the headphones? Maybe I'm already deaf
I just want to drown in my music and feel all the estacy everyone is feeling.
Anyway, I'm new to music, and I trolled quite a few forums, and would appreciate any inputs if possible. I noticed that music from my mp3s dont sound as good as the streaming music from myspace. =[ I'm really sad at that. I thought this X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS and ATH-A900 would change my world.
With my X-Fi Fatal1ty, I turn on 24-bit crystalizer and set it to max too. I also set it to using 96KHz. The music quality of my headphones over my 2.1 speakers is only slightly better. Hopefully its due to my un-trained ears? I'm hoping so... I really dumped alot of cash onto my PC and Gadgets.
