No, definitely not.  Even with phones like HD800 it isn't.

Thanks for the song list.
This is probably my fave chillstep track in recent memory...

 

 
WOW! That was amazing! New to Chillstep. Can you recommend some solid artists to get started?
 
Sorry to derail the thread.

Well if you want to really start enjoying your recordings on really nice gear like the HD800s.  It's just a small drip in the bucket to upgrade to better recorded material

Sure, if you already have CDs for the specific albums you have, and want a higher bitrate for them, then by all means.  It's kind of silly to dump ridiculous amounts of money into getting higher bitrate for your songs though.  Also, a higher bitrate won't change your recordings, the songs still have the same recording and mastering quality as before.

Thank you kind sir!    ...or ma'am

 

[Rath1on]

Like a sir. 

 
I wish I knew a ma'am that enjoyed chillstep.

They too tend to have some chillstep bordering on some/melodic dubstep.

Though Seven Lions has some pretty aggressively awesome tracks, like Isis.

I'm getting an Asus Xonar STX soon. I realized that I didn't care much to take these portable, so the FiiO was a half-thought-out buy.
Oh well.

Received these in the mail today. My collection consists of VSonic GR-07 and Yamaha EPH-100 IEMs. Ive been using Sennheiser HD202 (ick!!) for full size for the longest time, which I hated but my IEMs got my by. 
 
Prior to this purchase, the most I had spent on my headphones/IEMs was $160 for my VSonic's. After a few hours with these today, they are pure s3x to my ears. I love everything about them, and my E17 seems to compliment them so well. The soundstage is fantastic and the bass is very tight and controlled. I have had a couple of songs where the treble with a bit too harsh for my taste, but for the most part they have been a joy to own. I'm happy to have joined the club.

Just tried the kees mod and ended up stripping the LAST screw... Sigh..

 

[Rath1on]

Bummer. I've taken it apart a dozen times and the screws are in perfect shape. Be sure to use the correct size screwdriver. #00.
 
Protip, use a rubber band on top the screw head and try again. It will fill in the gaps and use friction to turn the screw with the screwdriver.

 

[jwusoccer]

Hmmm ill try that, thanks for the idea. and i did use a 00, but i pressed too hard.. D:

I'm returning the Pro 900 due to a channel imbalance. I grew to like them quite a bit, but I feel that at this current time, they would be getting very little headtime, next to my HE400. I was originally planning on exchanging them, but I'd rather save these $350 for something I'm going to use a bit.

I will miss that lovely bass. XD
