What's the second best headphone behind the MA900?

i'm not talking about mud listeners, i'm talking about REAL detail retrievers!

why does my fiio e10k not work on windows 10

Because it's garbageware. Get a schiit stack.

Are you selecting the correct source in windows playback?

Reusing the lewd penguin is poor form, and she's a terrible waifu. Fix it in the next thread, OP.

when will it end, its like the japanese porn industry vs the feds, it's not porn unless you can see the wards on his asshole

what do we have here

it's not there and updating it in device manager does not work

No headphones user, come back to the last thread! We're not done talking yet!

...

Where are the anime feet?

try changing USB ports, specifically to a 2.0 port and see if that helps. Make sure you turn the amp on each time

Hopefully gone forever. Fucking foot fetish degenerates are some of the worst.

This

why are you so paranoid? post your setup

I'm the AKG user, 'member mee?

no i dont. now post it

yeah I've been doing that but it still won't show up.
somehow worked immediately on my old pc that is also on win10

;^)

Oopsy

That's fucking weird then. Could be a USB driver issue

where the timestamp? should be no problem unless you're no headphones user

Why the heck not

well it finally worked just took 2 hours for my pc to realize what I was shoving into it

>K7XX
Literally the same bass as Beats by Dre.

Ahh, there you are! We've had this conversation before, but this time, let's start off with you providing me a pic + timestamp of your setup ;)

Having some issues my HD 579. They sound really quiet, I don't think it's a fault with the headphones from what I read in previous threads that people are having the same problem, and my pc gives out a lot of static noises when I plug them in. I've read an amp/dac would fix the problem but don't know what make/model would be the best value.
Any recommendations for a uk bro?

Is there any point to a DAC if 99% of your music is from Apple Music?

This image is extremely lewd and barely qualifies as worksafe.

Barely, but it still qualifies as worksafe.

how do the dt1990 compare against the hd650?
i already own the 650 but could use something a little more v-shaped and a local store have the 1900 at 20% off, should i buy them?

What aspects are there to look for in headphones for genres like IDM? Neutral/V-shaped? A good soundstage?

Worksafe on Sup Forums is a retarded concept in the first place.

Try plugging them into the back instead of the front.

>falling for the x genre on y headphone meme

This. I suggest speakers

Which is comfier, hd598 closed or hd569?

Should I buy the DT770 80ohm or Sony wh-1000mx2. Need something with more bass than my q701's.

I wonder what the foam mod does for this piece of chink shit

I dont get the buzzing on the front but the headphones sound really quiet.
When I plug on the back the audio is a lot clearer but a lot of static.

Should probably just EQ your 701s, but the dt770 are bass.

Also consider biodyna options. Thx00

569, but only slightly. They are both very comfortable

I had the same problems I bought a Steel Series Siberia 5H V2 usb soundcard for £1ish and no more static.
I am audio pleb so I don't know if I am not making the most of the 579s but they at least sound better than my steelseries headset.

>one can transform the A40 TR to a closed-back noise-isolating headset with sealed speaker tags,
Is this the dumbest fucking thing ever?
Aren't you just admitting that your headphones sound like if you're saying "just put a plate on these open back headphones and they become closed back." You're essentially saying that they sound so shit that they will sound the same open or closed

Get a Fiio E10k.
>in b4 some jackass says it's warm
No, it's not. Blue line at bottom here = frequency response with bass boost off, yellow and green = FR with bass boost on.

That's pretty flat. Nice

I don't know what I'm doing or how to stop

...

Name a better detail retriever than the HD600. I'll wait.

Those Sony pads look comfy

Whatever headphone you own

Hey where can I talk to people who own stuff worth more than $50

Doing christmas shopping and I need to buy a ps4 compatible headset w/mic for a relative. I don't know anything about consoles, does anybody have a recommended headset for comms? It's only for voice chat, not game sound so he doesn't need anything fancy.

get the gold ps4 headset

>MA900
Low fidelity garbage. No sub-bass. No upper midrange.

I dab for the haters, for the haters own no headphones

What are the second best headphones behind the HD600?

Ouch, late again, my dear user! Not that you would have been correct, if you weren't
Which are poorly sealed MA900s, btw

>Haters
>s
Who am I kidding

thanks user I always knew you were the best

What do MA900s and poorly sealed MA900s have in common?


They both have no bass.

Thinking about getting Grado 225e's because I don't have any open headphones and they look dope as fuck. Should I do it?

>What do MA900s and poorly sealed MA900s have in common?
They're both the best headphones?

Recommend me some decent reliable bluetooth headphones, preferably under $50
I want to buy them for my grandma, she has hearing problems.

Very high quality images these past few threads

Nothing will beat two left earcups for me.

hi guys i need new speakers, my budget is $3k any suggestions

genelec

great job, keep wasting money on midfi headphones instead of investing in proper sourcegear. why are leddit and /hpg/ fags so insufferably dumb?

passive speakers as i already have an 8w set amp and a 225w solid state amp. getting genelics would be a waste of time and money

used revel f208

why do you recommend these?

incredibly flat response floorstanders, just throw them in any room and it sounds good with a tiny bit of extra bass. harman uses these in their listening room

Can anyone recommend some headphones?

$300, give or take $100.

I bought the massdrop Sennheiser HD6XX's back in october should be arriving sometime christmas. These are my first pair of decent cans.
All I had were RHA CA200's. Have I been memed? Will I need an amp to drive them?
All I listen to is doujin trance and other electro music from the nipland.

They should be at least moderately comfy, I'm NEET so they'll be seeing a lot of use.

Audio Technica ATH-M20x were the last pair I had and also my first pair of decent headphones. I liked them but then again I don't have much to compare them to.

How do you like the M560?

And what the fuck is that abomination left of the Sony and above the vModa? Those pads hurt just looking at them.

SHP 9500 + vModa Boom Pro.

Hahaha, another HD6XX cuck will realize the truth soon.

get some custom one pros, i dont know how good they are as all i have to compare to are cheap jeadphones but definately a major improvment over those

Dipolar what do you think about Audiogds products? I want to buy the NFB 11.28

I want it to amp my HD660s, the superior choice from the HD6 series.

What are some comfortable headphones? I've got superlux 330hd and feel like they are going to crush my skull.

HD598

HD 700

I want to lick her puffy vulva

So I noticed not only audible clipping but measurable(in peace gui) clipping even when no EQ is applied. If I turn on Peace/apo without an EQ applied and check enable prevent clipping it fixes it. Why would they be behaving as though they have an EQ applied by clipping even when they do not?
My dac x6 has plenty of power to spare for the he500's but I would still like to know what's up. Thanks
p.s. hello idol user who suggested me to watch love live a couple months ago

Me too.

>only reason im aware of this threads is OP images with anime girls

Sup Forums work safe =/= irl worksafe
leave and never return thot

Sounds like the gain setting of your amp is too high.
I'm not sure if I would trust the peak value meter in Peace though. Whenever I've tried it out, it always recommends a higher preamp setting than necessary, which could result in clipping.
Also post your EQ graph window.

There's a bullet coming in the mail, could be for you, could be for him, could be for me.

NO COILED CABLE. WHATEVER HEADPHONE IT IS, I DO NOT WANT A FUCKING COILED CABLE

I am going off of the peak value meter in peace but at the same time whenever it's bar turns red I also hear something unpleasant. Hardware is fx audio dac x6 and he500. Source most of the time is spotify prem

magni/modi or jds the element

If you can't lower the gain settings on your amp, you could just set Windows audio to like 80 or 90%. I think that should take care of the problem regardless of what's causing it.

Yes, you'll need an am
