    Massdrop x Hifiman edition xx

    I bought my HEX from amazon a couple months ago and I LOVE them, I already own other planars and dynamics and the HEX are in my head 95% of the time, but the first thing I did after buying them was to order a balanced cable from periapt cables to power them properly and I can tell you they sound...

    Tutorial: Most elegant way to run a high quality EQ on OS X

    Thanks zambz that EQ looks very nice, I'll give it a try for sure. AULab was the first software I tested but it was buggy, didn't like it. Now I use soundflower + Hosting AU to pipe all my AU's, everything for free. :o2smile:

    Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion

    Yes, all the time, I use Fidelia and the CanOpener is awesome, in my experience it makes the he-400i better. I've found they can get harsh with certain female voices, but crossfeed makes it's less pronounced.

    Brief Odac impressions

    About a week ago my ODAC started showing in Fidelia and Audio Devices both in my MacBookPro and iMac as Unknown USB Audio Device, the ODAC works flawless, no issues with the sound or anything else than the name on the computer...   Somebody have the same behavior?   Happy 2015

    How do I know if it's "distortion" from my headphones or just the recording/source?

    I had the same situation when I shifted from sennheisser HD515 to the BeyersDT990. I thought they were broken, but what happened is that I used eq for making the senns a bit more to my taste. The way I EQ was wrong and I was clipping freqs so they were VERY noticeable in the Beyers due the...

    Amp/Dac for DT990

    I have the D1 and the DT990s honestly I didn't liked the D1, the bass is loose and bloated. I found the DAC section kinda noisy. At the moment Im using JDSlabs O2 + ODAC, and Im loving it. I also have the meier headfive, that is VERY transparent but with a narrower soundstage compared with the...

    What does an amp do?

    As they explained an amp will improve the quality of the music, but why? mainly because the headphone is a moving diaphragm driven by a magnet and a coil and they have mass and mass responds to inertia and acceleration, so when you feed enough power to the coil in the driver, the dynamic...

    Brief Odac impressions

    O2 + ODAC is amazing, matching it with the DT990s is great, the mids get enhanced and the highs are clearer. I must point out that the lows are very well defined. Conclusion... IM VERY HAPPY WITH THE COMBO!

    Don't buy any FiiO product from SainStore on Amazon and how to distinguish a genuine FiiO E6 from a fake one

    This is ironic and very bad. The truth is that there are many products being counterfeited all over the world. The bad part is what's happening to shockdoc, NOW he is not even sure if the product on his hands is original or fake... The worst part is that FiiO managed to deliver great quality...

    Replication of the high end headphones???

    Of course it can be done, but flagships would be very hard because the parts are not commonly used and the manufacturing processes are too complex and specialized, there must be a lot of precise measurements and tools involved. Amps and DACs is easier because you can replicate all the way from...

    Bifrost/Objective2, or D100?

    I already have the o2, and a Meier HeadFive and a Mav Audio DacMagic.  I'm looking for a Bifrost too, IMO its better to get the Bifrost, its always better to get a modular system, but if you lack of space go for a d100...

    OK the rat tails worked very nice, but at with some songs I found a strange behavior like if the phase was shifted.  So I found a guy that fixes TV a couple blocks from my house and started to talk about a solution for the hearing imbalance and he suggested a per channel volume control. Here...
