Been digging through YouTube channels for about a week since considering DROP + SENNHEISER HD 8XX. With such an investment (+AMD/DAC) I'm having a hard time identifying what suits me best.
#1 Complaints about bass response 8XX. I love drums in metal and alternative music and it almost sounds like 800's just aren't for me.
BUT I can't help but think that as a first step into the headphone world above $400 everything is going to be better then what I've experienced as long as it is something highly rated like the 800's can I go wrong for the DROP price?
Or in other words; If I enjoy heavy music am I just WRONG for even considering the DROP + SENNHEISER HD 8XX?
Yeah, I've pretty much moved on to the HIFIMAN Ayra and/or the Focal Clear MG Professional. Two totally different designs, and at the moment I'm leaning towards the Focal. With it's less demanding amp requirements compared to the Ayra the price difference seems to be the deciding factor after looking at all the pro and cons.
Clear MG Professional in the mail but I think I'll be buying the 6XX for something different.
Well I would advise against using price to judge headphones. The big selling point for the hd800s is the soundstage but the tonality isn't good. They do however EQ really well so if you are willing to make sacrifices for the soundstage or willing to EQ then they are a great pair of headphones.
I bought this but haven't been able to get audio to my headphones...here's my system: Wiim Pro Plus optical to Schitt Modi 3 RCA output to Topping A9D RCA input. I choose the selector for RCA and the proper headphone output and...bupkiss! nothing at all. Is there something I'm overlooking? As a newbie to this hobby, I realize I have much to learn. Thank you.
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.
Suspension strap for comfort, real carbon fiber cups for lighter weight and slightly more open sound, bottom color accents. I make all the parts to make these, check it out on my Etsy store.
I ordered the Dekoni Cobalt for $179 and the price dropped to $159 before they even arrived. Some retailers do price match reimbursements if an item goes on sale within a certain time frame after purchase. Does Drop do that?
Is the TV Speaker bottle necked because it is intended for a digital signal? If so, how do I optimize it (preferably most effective appraoch) or should I just get new speakers for the same cost it would be to optimize this. Context of Use: Desktop/TV/Gaming (Office Setup)
