I think stage 1 is enough with the Pro900. Stage 2 becomes a bit overwhelming/muddy as the bass of the Pro900 is already fairly strong below 100Hz. I don't know the frequency range of the stage 1 boost but I think any impact gained is done here as the stage 2 is purely boosting frequencies below 70Hz which isn't really the impactful bass region. (correct me if I'm wrong)
 
The 4G seems to have changed the bass boost to 0dB,3dB,9dB

O.k i see...
Now i am less concerned knowing that 4G's bass boost gain is more adjustable by adding the 3db gain..
I am now listening to a bass oriented track like the one in the spoiler

from my Xonar D2x/E7 combo(E7 as an amp) with bass boost 1 through my DJ1 and i am really enjoying the bass presence..
This is the perfect amount of bass impact that i like and i am looking for from an amp...

the pro 900s sound good with my xm6, and it has a 3db+ bass boost.

Hey guys, anyone know how to fix scratches on the silver part of the pro 900's? I've got a couple scratches on the ultrasone logo and the silver plating itself and don't know how to remove them.

 

[n-phect]

i do lol. i felt silly at first walking around, then remembered that i don't actually care what people think. 
 
 
my old cell phone i used in 1999:

Has anyone that has listened to the westone 3/westone 3 LE's IEM's compare their sound to the ultrasone 900's?
 
Also does the pico slim have enough power to amplify these bad boys?

So, I succumbed and just ended up getting an E9 since it was dirt cheap, and something is better than nothing.  I had a minor improvement when I was tooling around using my receiver as a "headphone amp", but then later discovered that is nowhere near as good as a dedicated headphone amp in most cases.  I just assumed the current that was being generated to power a huge speaker setup would have plenty of power for headphones.

Anyway, my E9 just arrived and uh....

No, really, where the hell did those vocals come from?

The W3 is a good match for the Pro900 sound signature in an IEM I think, although I don't find the Pro900 sibilant like the Wesssstone 3.

Well I went for it. 330 dollars free shipping no tax for a pair of ultrasone pro900's. Seems like a great price for these phones.
 
Now I just have the pray the pico slim can amp them properly. I'd really hate to have to get a bulkier amp.

Scroll up three posts.  They were already reaching the "sounds fairly nice" level without an amp, but it's completely different now.  As for my MP3 player though, it definitely needed an amp to use these.
