Ringing in PC38X's
I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?
Greetings, Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...

Big changes coming to my tiny little music room, I've recently purchased a new stack. Currently figuring out where to locate it all and ordering up the necessary cables, it won't be too long before I'm up and running. I am now the proud owner of a brand new stack. It's a European brand called Earmen. Amp, DAC, Streamer & Linear Power Supply. It won't be long!

Recommendation for my next headphone set? I have Koss 95x
Hey all, What would you recommend I get next and why? I have Koss ESP-95x electrostatic massdrop headphones. These are my first and only audiophile set. I love them. I think my only real requirements is $500 or less for the headphones and that they have a little more low end. I don’t need thump but these are really light on lows…but the experience is still awesome. Also any recommendations on an amp? I only have my electrostatic thingy. I am using the Topping D50 DAC. thx!!

A decent set of IEMs

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.

(Actually, I cheated. I asked JVC.) “HA” → HA means that headphones category in our regulation “FD” → FD means that inner-ear headphones and especially "SOLIDEGE" category in our regulation “DLC” → Diamond-Like Carbon. Carbon material which has diamond-like hardness. “DOME” → Center portion of diaphragm, a DOME shape of PEN material and coated with DLC. “DUAL CARBON” → Two different sections of the diaphragm and two different types of carbon coatings. PRODUCT DETAILS from Drop questions to JVC about the technology and design: -Stainless steel earpiece bodies. -Special earpiece design allows the nozzle to rotate 360 degrees. This takes into consideration the shape of the ear, which varies from person to person & allows for cables to be worn over the ear or straight down. Video showing the cables worn over-ear or down with the rotating earpieces:
https://youtu.be/IAXhheUWdq4 Newly developed 11mm dynamic driver unit: -DLC DOME DUAL CARBON driver unit with newly developed diaphragm, air damper, and metal driver case used in JVC FD Series IEMs -Other companies normally coat whole diaphragm by using DLC (Diamond-like Carbon). -Coating whole area with DLC results in a harsh sound and is fatiguing to the ear. -Using hybrid driver materials through trial and error in the DLC DOME DUAL CARBON design generated a non-fatiguing and high-resolution sound. This dual material hybrid structure is JVC’s proprietary development technology. -The driver diaphragm is made out of two different materials (a PEN* center dome & PET* outer ring) and then coated with two different coatings (diamond-like carbon on the dome, black carbon on the outer ring). *NERD NOTES: Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and Polyethylene Naphthalate (PEN) are structurally related polyesters. PEN is significantly stiffer and stronger, with a modulus almost twice that of PET. -Hybrid materials/coatings are how they achieve resolution/detail without harshness from the diaphragm. -Large 11mm driver achieves effortless bass (can move a lot of air). -Use of a single dynamic driver creates a very natural sound (we are used to dynamic drivers in most speakers, only one driver per ear means there is no crossover point where sonic wave cancellations or overlap can exist). -Titanium driver case reduces unwanted vibration/resonance. -Accurate motion air damper: A newly designed air damper achieves accurate movement of the diaphragm. -The cable is designed to be tangle-free and quiet. There is also some extra shielding of the channels. -JVC makes my favorite ear tips of all time which are hard to get in the US: Spiral Dots! These are the second version, the Spiral Dot+. The Spiral Dot+ have slightly “gummier” silicone domes and are more comfortable than the first version. ABOUT-TO-BE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
