E-MU Teak Repair - Any Experience?
Hello, I am wondering if anybody has any experience contacting E-MU support, sending them headphones for repair, or getting them back fixed. Can anybody share any experience? I have been emailing them for a while now, but nobody has responded. Thank you.

pc38x still has audio coming through with the volume dial turned all the way down
Finally got my hands on the pc38x. I mostly wanted to try this headset because of all the good things i heard about it. Out of the box i wasn’t really impressed. My 50 dollar astros were just as loud if not louder. After setting up an EQ on dolby access i got them sounding a little better. But one thing that really bothers me is the volume dial on the headset. When i turn it all the way down there’s so much audio still coming through, like the headset is turned up 10-20%. Is this normal?

My little room work in progress.
It's not done, I apologize for the mess. Health issues have put this on hold. It's a small room and I'm likely to sell off my KEF 104.2 loudspeakers and some other gear after surrendering the living room to my wife after her patience of 35 years. She deserved her own little sanctuary.

New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.

Unfortunately, I'm disappointed. I've only had 30 minutes or so with them, so hopefully things will improve, but I honestly think my Bose QC15's sound better after doing some side by side comparisons. I certainly didn't think I'd say that, and the QC15's were a gift more for noise cancelling than sound quality.
I'll admit, I'm a noob, but am I doing something wrong?
Many people say you can speed the burn-in process by playing pink noise on the headphones for several hours, but it is better to not play it continuously for really long stretches of time so you don't over-work the drivers. There's a thread on this at Head-Fi at:

I am planning on using the track found at: http://www.jlabaudio.com/burn.php to burn mine in when they arrive. I'll set up my computer to play the track for 2-4 hours a night for several nights and track the results.
Definitely play with the fit and placement of the earphones on your head as well. Several people have reported that they like the sound better when the earphones are pushed forward so that the back of your ear is touching or nearly touching the back of the cup, though others have differed.
My only problem so far is that they aren't comfortable. Like at all. The headband at the top is super thin and my ears start to hurt after like a half hour. Going to continue experimenting with different positions. They sound great, but these are my first pair of nice headphones, so I have nothing useful to compare to.
