Whatever you do do not get something with a tenor usb receiver chip, especially the 7022. The volume control is fucked because it's very low and cannot be adjusted. So no "bit-perfect" so to speak by maxing out the volume and avoiding the crunching of the precious bits. This is basically for every kernel release of 3.2 and higher, maybe they fixed it by now but i gave up a while ago. Also hook it directly into alsa and avoid pulse audio unless you want to use it for other stuff as well besides music. If you want it to work reliably the xmos based receivers are great but a bit more expensive, i use the musical fidelity v-link 192 because it has aes/ebu and nothing else was free on my dac. But i think there are cheaper options if you only need coax.

Nah we have positive pressure all around and we like our fans big.

Yeah the email said a day or two by email but nothing yet. Checked my spam folder etc, but just got an email they are looking into it so.. Think i'm gonna sell my other cans since they are not getting any attention anymore, these cans are fucking epic.
-
I indeed was just talking about that fan, if you misunderstood and were insulted in some way my apologies. But yeah the thing i don't like about fans mostly is the smaller they are the more annoying the noise is. Even more so if it starts to wear out or has to spin too fast. And indeed the dust is an issue as well, judging by the label the fan is set to suck air out of the case which creates negative air pressure which in turn makes the case a giant dust magnet. Maybe it only spins at a certain power output but i doubt it given how busy it is inside that case.

Been almost two weeks and still no frequency certificate =/ How long did it take for you guys? I know it doesn't say much but still i'm curious...
-
It's a little too late for that no take-backsies.
-
I don't like fans, especially small ones.

Looks like they fixed the skullcrushing headband but i bet they're keeping the shitty pads so they have something to sell for the next model, i have learned my lesson with the he-500.

Improving my running form and body strength so i can do more running. Had lots of problems with injuries and shitty footwear last year till i switched over to natural running. For me less is definately more and have been steadily building it up again.
-
I prefer the thicker cables so you can hang yourself in shame after you realize you wasted so much money.
-
Yeah decent show. Let's see if they can improve it further in the second season.
-
So he has been off his meds for atleast 10 years? Not cutting up the original one for resale value if i ever decide to get rid of these cans.
-
Well i'm glad i gave these another shot. Really enjoying these and don't really see the need to mod them though i have to sort me a balanced cable. How much harder are those pin's to solder compared to the hifiman's? I know i can reterminate the stock cable but i want to leave that one untouched.
-
Carbon based life forms always seem to find a way back into my rotation, not sure how to classify it but good music non the less.
-
I don't so much have a problem with the weight of the He-500 as i do the with fact that it feels like it's crushing my skull. Perhaps it's a design choice to prevent your skull from resonating from brain rattling bass. The issue lies in the uneven pressure around the ears and the shitty pads. And yes my head is also big.. About the LCD series well, i read they were even less comfortable so i never bothered with them.

I hear ya, luckily with this hobby one tends to have more then one headphone. I do have some warm sounding amp's as well(V200 and a custom tube amp) so the gear and music collection should be up for it. But i'll just have to try it out on the current setup, last time the treble bothered me a bit but in retrospect that was music choice and dac. And if that all fails it will go back and i'll stop trying!
-
Hmm i think it's time to give these another shot, they have been haunting me lately and then i come here and read this thread... fuck me and my wallet.

Damn it! And it was even FOTM over at the dark side

If it measures rectangular it is subjectively good atleast that has been my experience. My square waves are very impressive!
