Hey guys,
This is kind of a cross-forum post but I've put it in the full size forums as thats where (I think) the problem lays...
So I've bought some new gear these past few months and one thing I notice is that my q-Jays expose more detail than my DT-880 Pro's at a similar volume. Is this something to be expected? Are Balanced Armatures really that much better? if not where is the best place to look for problems with my home setup.
This is my setup at the moment:
Portable:
Sansa Clip+ (Flac) > q-Jays
Home:
Flac (44.1/16) > Foobar > Windows 7 mixer (44.1/24) > Xonar Essence STX (44.1/2, using headphone jack on High gain output (+12dB for ~64-300ohms)) > DT880 Pro's > Ears
So, is there something wrong here, or are the q-Jays just that good?
Thanks to all that help
Psy.
