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.

I like the all black of the Massdrop O2/ODAC - it would fit right in on my desk - and the price point is very good. The downside is that the Schiit Magni 2 Uber and Modi 2 Uber would give me all the connectivity that I require for a desktop set up. I have other sources that output coxaial and optical that I use regularly - perhaps even more than the computer. Of course, the Schiit M2/M2 combo is also 40% more (not including shipping).
I personally can't compare, since my stack is a Modi 2 Uber -> Little Dot I+, but I say the Schiit stack is probably worth it over the O2/ODAC. At the very least, the Modi 2 Uber is the better choice if you want extra connectivity, and you could just stack the O2 on top of it if you wanted to get the cheaper headphone amp.
From what I've read on headfi, the Magni and O2 sound similar (and Magni 2 is very similar to the original Magni all marketing aside) so it's mostly a matter of preference and connectivity, especially given the similar price point with this drop.
I think I'm going to get the Massdrop O2 Desktop for office use now and later add in a Modi 2 Uber (and perhaps Magni 2 Uber and reuse the O2 at home). I really like the look of the black finish on the Massdrop O2/ODAC and it would fit in better on my desk but it's around the same price as the Schiit M2/M2 once shipping is included on the latter and a few bucks more would get something that would serve me better for longer. I think the biggest argument for the M2U/M2U is the increased functionality, albiet at about 50% more total cost.
