If it's the one I got with my Elear OMG that's a really really good rigid case IMO! Never leave the house without it 👌

TheGreyElear. Can’t afford to replace them but I did get a used pair of BeyerDynamic DT770 Pro that I love. Paid $100.

UsehernameYou're using it with what exactly? Any amp/dac or straight from your smartphone?

TheGreyI got a pair of the 250 ohm version. Sounds great on any of my amps. I’m a snob now so I always connect to my amps. Coming from my HD6xx’s and the Elear, the BeyerDynamic sounds fine and is my daily driver. I’ll still pull out my Senns once in a while as a treat. I do miss my Elears.

TheGreyThe BeyerDynamic also comes in 80 ohm version which may be better if you only run it with your phone sans amp. The Elear is 80 ohm I believe and was just fine either with or without an amp (amp preferred). I prefer the 250 ohm model of my BeyerDynamic DT770 Pro's. I'd like to know what the 600 ohm model is like but it's hard to find. I bought one well used 250 ohm one and got it, a small SS amp by SMSL, and a nice headphone stand by Corsair, all for $100. I found and purchased a mint pair for another $100. I'm debating whether to keep or sell the worn pair. It's sounding great but the pads are worn pretty flat and the headband adjuster on both sides the plastic is cracked. I just installed a pair of crossed zip-ties to each side and it's good to go. Parts to fix is about $30. I can live with the zip-ties. New pads would make it almost hard to notice any difference. I'm gonna try to sell the little SMSL amp even though its good because I already have a backup, and also the stand. So I made out pretty good with the BeyerDynamics I bought. How have you been running your Elears? Please share your impressions. Cheers.

UsehernameI'm using my Elear/Utopia pads with my Chord Mojo and what a big upgrade from my Oppo PM3 😳 Don't get me wrong, I still love my PM3 but it's another level. Yeah I know closed vs open is very very different but still, I prefer Focal sound. I don't think it's too heavy on the bass sound...maybe because the Mojo help I don't really know. I recently bought the Woo WA6 and now looking for a good DAC. RME ADI2 DAC seems like a smart choice from what I red everywhere but it's a lot of $$$ gosh....That hobby is soo expensive 😶

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!

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.

What would be a good portable Dac/Amp to use with my HD6xx and Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone?
I am new to this hobby. I purchased a HD6XX and plan to use it with my Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone, that has a 3.5mm jack. I was wondering if I needed a portable dac/amp or just a portable amp and if so what would one recommend? Any assistance one could provide, would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Haz

Invest in Balancing my HD6xx headphones?
Hi... I'm a songwriter/producer. I have Drop Senn HD6xx HPs. I just bought a Topping L30 II SE HP amp to enhance my monitoring. It honestly sounds pretty good. The audio interface I'm using (an Audient iD22) has balanced outs. For those of you who've listened to the HD6xx using balanced amps and cables, do you think I should invest in that kind of setup to take advantage of the Senns potential?

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.

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.
