Well I just received my pair of these (the black version, bought direct from linsoul) and I’ve got to say, I don’t know why others are shitting on them. I’m not an audiophile with loads of crazy gear, but previously I had been using the tin p1 and a ifi Hipdac and that was great for me. Loved the p1’s sound, but I guess I had gotten used to their lack of bass, these are head and shoulders above them in my opinion. Similar levels of clarity and placement of instruments etc, but with a much more open feel and a hell of a lot more bass!! I definitely recommend, don’t know why others are hating them, maybe they got faulty sets?

CatgoYou wanna know why? Buy a pair of Audeze’s $2,500 LCDi4 (with their included $400 cable, and I must say for a naked cable which I’m normally not a fan of as I don’t build naked cables, was quite thoughtfully and meticulously designed and sounds great; oh, and make sure to order it terminated specially with a 4-pin XLR or 4.4mm Pentaconn; otherwise you’ll get a 3.5mm which is a huge waste) paired with a killer home balanced DAC and balanced amp, or a balanced portable DAC/amp such as the FiiO Q5s (connected to your iPhone), with the FiiO THX AAA-78 module installed that can output the required 500mW per channel at the LCDi4’s 32 ohms, and you’ll immediately find out why.
I must also say I find it hysterical when people talk about “instrument placement,” like they have a clue of what causes it: phase noise and distortion from crappy, non-precision oscillators, poor PCB design with an emphasis on oscillator position, the use of mismatched delta-sigma DAC chips, and impedance mismatching between wires and connectors. Once you take care of all that, THEN WORRY about the PRaT of your earphones.

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.
