Modded headphones with qudelix at the core
When I received the Qudelix 5K, I had already modified a pair of Superlux HD-681 headphones. I previously soldered my own balanced connections to the drivers, providing multiple ways to connect and...

A decent set of IEMs
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.

Sound is pretty good! Music sounds full and no distortion that I can perceive at normal listening levels. I'm no audiophile so I'll leave it there. I do have a DAC/Amp so that could be contributing to my overall sound enjoyment. I am liking the open-back design, I wasn't sure if I would at first. You can definitely hear outside sounds, and they definitely are audible if someone else has them on, as to be expected.
Mic sounds good. It's a bit nasally, but that could be more a commentary on my own voice... TBD =p. I did buy a windscreen to prevent some breathing noises and that did seem to help with a quick before/after test. It did lower the mic volume a little, but I'm rocking just a +10dB boost in Windows and people online can hear me alright with a good mic positioning. I think. More testing with a friend who won't get annoyed at me asking "Can you hear me now?" 20 times during an online match, hah.
I haven't nor do I intend on using the volume wheel, but it rotates smoothly, it doesn't click at different % or anything like that. The cable is VERY nice, I think it'll outlast everything else on here, and the rest of the build is good too so that's saying something. I thought it had a twist+lock mechanism, but it just plugs in and pulls out. I'm not sure if the flexible boom is keeping its position well or not. It seems like it's unbending a bit after getting it in place, but maybe that is in my head or will adjust over time.
Overall impression: If you are looking for a headset, this is a great price for a solid build with good sound/mic. If you want an amazing sounding pair of headphones that happen to have a mic, I'd get headphones that sound how you want, get an attachment, and just deal with the cabling. The sound is good, but the headphone+mic combo and build quality are definitely the selling points.
