Hey guys,
 
I have MrSpeakers Mad Dog headphones, an Asus Xonar STX, and a Schiit Magni amp. What would be optimal settings within the software for music? Hip hop, to be specific.
 
Thanks so much in advance!

Assuming your plugging the Magni into the STX's RCA outputs and plugging the Mad Dogs into the Magni.
For music.
Set "Audio Channel" to 2-Channel
Sample Rate, I just leave mine at 96k
Set Audio Output to "Speakers"
 
Best to have the computer/Xonar volume control set to as high as possible and just use the Magni's volume knob.
Setting the Computer/Xonar to 100% volume might cause "noise" issues, but if you can get it to at least 75% that should be ok.
 
Also try using the program Foobar2000 (with component upgrades) for playing music audio.
