50% OFF! Good job!

Anything else would have been irresponsible of me

... the weight is really what i'm after and hoping the sound is at least on equals. hoping there is no crinkly weirdness to the diaphragm or whatever the newer models have and wondering if it makes sense to swap out the pads for vegan on this model before sending them for calibration.

Just had my brandnew pair of LCD-XC’s sent over yesterday! Right now I love my LCD-X’s with the average profile but I will send those over for individual calibration as well. I can’t listen to my headphones without Sonarworks anymore. Even with my m50x’s that I use on the go I love them with the average profile through the mobile True-Fi app. Good work Sonarworks!

 

[groovyd]

yep, it's the biggest bang for buck investment in hifi that anyone could make to their system.

 

[frank1175]

I totally agree! And I use Sonarworks for audio mixing work too, not just for music listening

 

[thebkt]

Agreed. I just use it for listening, but at the click of a button I have two completely different and enjoyable flavours of LCD-X, fantastic.

I searched for this in iTunes app store and it doesn't show up. Typical search algorithm - or should I just wait a while. I definitely want this on my iPhone and 6 Gen Touch.

Thanks. Finally found it. Funny enough it is not selectable (or I did not find it) in the main window but only in the little task bar at the Windows task bar. But now it works. Thank you again, because I did already give up.

I have been trying to get sonarworks workable for several weeks on my HTPC with windows 10.
It has worked once but does not get it working anymore.
the audio signal goes via a spdif signal to an external dac.
Then to the headphone amplifier and akg k812.
Does anyone have a solution to this conflict with the signal processing of sonarworks 4 on the HTPC to the dac.
It also seems to me that there are several people with the same attitude and encountered problems here.
Greetings from Holland.

I thought it was simply installing the software/app, plugging your headphone into your desktop or phone, select your headphone model, and off you go, with accurate flat sound?

No they have much work to do with ASIO drivers, I have had many issues with win 10, waiting for some progress here

I use Reference 4 with HPs and speaker calibration and Systemwide needs work.
It will not work to pass correct bit rate. Much screwing around to manually get things working.

Hello Sonarworks

So if I want to 'flatten' the sound of a given headphone on my desktop or mobile, better to just utilize an EQ app and apply a curve that is the inverse of the curve for that headphone on, IE: Inner Fidelity.

I like Sonarworks EQ it's a driver thing thats the problem.
Plugin support is good they need to work on Systemwide.

Also how do propose you do this with a pro monitor speaker system?
How do you take accurate measurements cheaply, and then correct inside of a DAW?
Same for HP actually, because they are all different. Sonarworks measures your HPs

Remember accuracy counts more here with mixing.

Also frequent MS updates break things.

Hello Sonarworks

That is very disappointing to hear that sonarworks 4 is not working well with windows 10.
High resolution recordings are therefore also not supported I understand.
Perhaps Waves Nx Headphone EQ Calibration is an alternative to sonarworks if this problem persists.
Is sonaworks actually working to solve these problems with windows 10

Perhaps I don't understand this SonarWorks thing as much as I thought? I assumed it came pre-loaded with complimentary(canceling) curves and all one had to do was pick their make and model and voila, flat sound. Measurement? How and what would I need for Sonarworks to measure my phones?
