Hello, I'm trying to put together a 2.1 setup for my computer. I'm looking at getting a pair of JBL lsr305 powered monitors and a JBl lsr310 powered sub. The sub has balanced 2x 3pin XLR and 2x 1/4" TRS inputs and balanced 2x 3pin XLR output. The monitors have the same inputs as the sub. I...

Hi all,   I'm looking for a closed back headphone for office use. I originally bought a used pair of Focal Spirit Classic headphones. I loved the sound of them. I felt they were very detailed and even sounding with a slight bass emphasis that I enjoyed. However, my ears are too big and they...

Hey All,   My current motherboard is the ASRock Fatal1ty Pro Z87, which has the Sound Blaster SoundCore 3D Quad Core sound and voice processor. I noticed many of Sound Blaster's dedicated cards have a similar described chip, such as the Sound Blaster Z. I'm curious as to how much of a...

I've been doing a bit of research and I think either of these headphones would fit what I want at the price point I'm looking at. I just am not sure which one I should go with.   One thing I dislike about the WS99 is that the cable isn't detachable, but it does have an extender so as long as I...
