I couldnt get past the super small sendy soundstage. So i bet this has the same limitation. Like its an open back planar. It should have a huge soundstage but the Sendy sure didnt. Is the Blon different?

ShroudIf what you want stage more room between the driver and your ears is better, and the cup of the blon b20 and the sendy is smaller than a sennheiser hd650. I would recommend ThieAudio phantom instead, you can find them in the linsoul store... i think they finally have some in stock since they sold really well at the start.

Rene-FYeah the Sendy soundstage was not wide at all and vocals and instruments sounded tiny. On the sendy the grills really killed the width and it might not be as bad on the blon Thanks for the recommendation. Will chexk them out

Rene-FYes the Phantom is a big ass planar and Z certificate of goodness.

zep483Nope, it's a different driver. The m1060 doesn't hold a candle to the Phantoms, even when modded. Phantoms also have seen modding, but not as drastic, people have only noticed an improvement by removing the foams that are behind the grilles on the oustide of the headphone.

Rene-FAre you sure it's not the same driver... pretty sure it is, there are posts about it.

zep483They both might be based from the same design... if you look at the specs it kinda gives it away: M1060

10-50 kHz, 106mm and 50 ohms. --------------- Thieaudio Phantom

Driver size: 101mm
Impedance: 47 ohms
Frequency response: 5-50 kHz

Rene-FAhh, thanks... maybe there will be a set at RMAF, the AIVAS were not my favorite, so doubt I'll look at these, but I'm interested in the Phantom if it is indeed what is being promoted.

ShroudActually.. COMPLETELY different. I just leaked my review above (or below?) and it's a wholly different ball game.

ZeosM1070 and M1570 look like they have addressed the build on monoliths, the blon looks to be well put together too. I also think they are revising the Phantom from the feedback given.

ZeosThanks z for chiming in! I have the m1060v2 and M1060c both modded and am looking for an upgrade. The sendy left me wanting in the width department. Would the Blon beat the m1060 without grills in width??

I am in the midst of a 300 hour burn-in but, I will say I am enjoying how this set sounds so far. Before I received these which was btw late by a few weeks, I purchased a Sony/Kimber Kable MMCX...

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?

I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup

Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

$10 Drop Coupon Email not sent?

Trying to buy some gear off Drop for the first time. I was told I would receive an email with a welcome to drop $10 off promo. I never received that email. Drop was able to send me emails for my login token and email for Password update. But for some reason the $10 off coupon was never sent to me.

New here

Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.
