    Covid Anxiety

    Hey there, I have anxiety much like you. I've dealt with it most of my life. The pandemic has made things much worse for me at times also. I was really scared but also thankful when I was able to get my vaccines earlier this year in March/April. The 1st I had no side-effects, and the 2nd greatly...

    Grado Fan Club!

    I posted my impressions of the sr60x a while back. However, it is my first Grado, so I am unable to compare them to other models discussed here.

    Grado Fan Club!

    I got my 60x pair in the mail this afternoon. I’ve been excitedly awaiting them as my first ever Grados. First thing, the unboxing experience is very nice with the simple, yet clean presentation with the box not completely unfolding, the family picture and signature prints with their story...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Finally excited to try my first pair of Grados! Been refreshing their website and checking classified ads for months trying to get one of their lower end models. I’m not sure how they’ll stack up against my other pairs, but I’m hoping they’ll be unique enough to hook me like they’ve done to so...

    Using Equalizer-APO with iFi Zen DAC

    I use equalizer APO with an ifi zen dac. It works great. I don't equalize my speakers or my microphone, just my different headphones, but if you already have the profiles set up you just change what device you are using the equalizer with on the settings.

    Focal Elegia - what do you think?

    I haven’t tried that with this particular profile, but I do preamp in Oratory’s. I don’t use this one too often, but that might be a good idea even though I don’t hear any audible clipping. Good catch!

    Answered: how to go through transaction correctly

    If you click on a user's name, it should take you to their profile where you can view their buying/selling reputation. You can also add your own feedback there when you are done with the transaction.

    The Deals DISCUSSION Thread (READ THE FIRST POST!!!)

    Your link says $890 on back order, but this one Shows $399 in stock. I copied it from Slickdeals, so idk if it’s an affiliate link or an email promotion or something. This is a great deal IMO, and I never thought they would come back after the last time they had this deal in October I believe...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    So would you all recommend trying a new pair of genuine stock Sennheiser pads? Or is there another aftermarket pair that is known to be more comfortable for people with larger ears while giving the same (or similar) sound? To be fair, I am trying to gather as much info from others that have...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    I’m sorry, I purchased them used on here. I thought I mentioned that in my post, but I see that I did not. That’s why I was wondering how worn down the pads already are compared to a fresh set.

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    I recently got a pair of 6xx, and I’m having trouble wearing them for longer than 45mins to an hour. My ears start to have pain. I’ve done some researching, and so far I have tried pulling the headband all the way out, applying some mild pressure on the metal parts to relieve the clamping...

    Small AMP/DAC stack or combo unit for the Focal Celestee

    The Zen DAC is probably all you really need to power those louder than you could ever want.

    Yep, just plug the dongle into the dock. No Bluetooth adapter.

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I'm no electronics expert/engineer, but I fail to see how a USB hub is going to kill a pair of headphones. At the time these headphones started coming out, a lot of people (maybe even Audeze reps, idk I'm not searching through this thread) were recommending using USB hubs or extenders to get the...

    I am not able to make up my mind and decide what to buy..

    Yes! I was going to recommend EQ'ing the 660s to have more bass. Free is always the best option. Enjoy what you have even more.

    Worth Getting an AMP / DAC for Philips X2HRs?

    I have not read about the HIDIZS. The external power source is your phone's battery or your laptop/PC, wherever you plug it in.

    Worth Getting an AMP / DAC for Philips X2HRs?

    Do you hear any hissing, static, or anything else sounding wrong of "off" when you hear things through them? If not, you don't need a DAC. Do the headphones get loud enough to enjoy what you are listening to? If they do, then you don't need an amp. If you find that you need either of these...

    How to EQ using Tidal?

    I am not familiar with the node. I just use my PC, and I am able to EQ through Peace as long as I disable exclusive mode. Of course that takes away MQA, however to my ears EQ provides greater sound improvement than Tidal Masters MQA tracks without EQ. Plus, I can listen to music and play video...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I have it in mine, but it doesn't bother me that much. It's very faint, and it's not always even there.

    Focal Elegia - what do you think?

    Download the App called Wavelet. Run the app in the background, plug in your headphones, and play a song on Spotify. Wavelet should automatically detect it. Then, AutoEQ should pop up in the Wavelet app. Type in a search for Elegia and turn it on. I believe it uses Oratory’s EQ profile...
