Sony MDR-E434's through a Dragonfly 1.2.   I can't even tell that I'm wearing anything

As cool as that sounds, I can't help but wonder how that would work. Is it device powered? What about the voltage swings? And if it somehow incorporates its own battery then what about weight? There's also the question of how it sources its audio as well (er...bluetooth? Standard 3.5mm?) I've...

Quote: I didn't think I'd like the 3DS as much as I do. They're may not be a ton of titles, but solid ones are always coming out and its usually just infrequently enough for me to be able to keep up with purchases. The quality of the XL screen is what surprises me the most. The 800x240...

@MrViolin, Driver8, I clean my ears with a q-tip every morning as part of my daily routine. I've heard that using a q-tip too often can often lead to pushing in ear-wax deeper, and last time I used debrox stuff did come out on the 3rd day and I got the whole"everything is clearer and more...

Hey Diary members, where should I go to get my ears examined and cleaned? An ear nose and throat doctor? Or someone more specialized? My ears are acting up again. Every few months or so I find vocals and bass to sound off center for me when listening to iem's. I can be listening to closed...

Quote: lol, I thought you were reffering to DJ Max Portable 3. I got worried for your Vita's buttons for a moment I keep a PSP1000 reserved just for these music games, since its easy to replace the buttons every so often. Its been less of an issue since I press softer now. I play...

Good to hear that though. When a smartphone can sound nice with an expensive custom ba you know things are changing. For now I just want my ba's to sound great; to have decent clarity and show me the whole picture. It's sad that I'm not getting even that, so I can reach for the sky later...

Quote: I always worry about output impedances on smartphones, since they usually average from 10 to 30Ohms and do weird things with ba iems. Samsung's been a lot better about this lately though, with their phones all having around 4Ohm's impedance, which I find to be just fine for dynamic...
