Agreed.would make much more sense to include frequency response graphs to product descriptions.. I just scroll past half of the "audiophile" products simply because there is a lack of real evidence to back up the "awesome" reviews from Billy Bob and his cousins.
Some people might argue that a frequency response graph is too technical for the typical consumer to understand.. I'd argue that any self identifying audiophile willing to spend big bucks on great sounding equipment would never shy away from adding to their understanding of audio. Without data sheets, everything is subjective and that is not how to make an informed decision. If I see a product on massdrop that interests me, the first thing I do is search out frequency response graphs, technical specs.. I couldn't care less how "cool" they look, or reviews from other end users. That stuff is just gravy...I need the meat.
Plus freq. response graphs are incredibly useful and easy to decipher once you understand their purpose. Head-Fi is an awesome resource, and should really be linked in product descriptions (if avail)..

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
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.

I know from past experience that Massdrop and head-fi have a pretty close relationship, but it would be very nice if we can get some more details of stuff you're selling on the drop page (rather than hunting for reviews). I've personally always really enjoyed the information I get on goldenears, and I typically use that as a reference (when possible, and I don't mind the terrible Google translate of the Korean site). I typically won't buy headphones unless I have some idea that I'll like the sound profile. I find many reviews too subjective and typically contain comparisons of products that I'm unfamiliar with. Without the sort of detail I'm really looking for, I'm lead to shrugging and thinking I don't to burn a few hundred dollars on a gamble . For those not familiar with goldenears here is an example from when they were still porting content from the Korean site to the English site:
