So for the past 6 months+ i haven't touched my headphone amp or dac as i have been listening to my Polks but last night i started to feel a bit depressed and stuff so i figured why not try my AKG 712 Pro's again. By god they smack the crap out of my Monitor 70's in mids so i was wondering is...

I found this to be interesting as i'm doing some research and advise is all over the place and you can tell a lot of it is coming from like the old days of amps. I always wondered if i was underpowering my Polks and i guess the issue was less important then i thought

Hi so i have a 5.1 sound system but i have this center speaker(2 6.5 inch mids & 1 inch tweeter) on a table and i know it's making it sound kind of muddy a little over it i wanted to know if you guys have anyway of giving me some kind of help? The thing i was hoping to do a DIY super easy kind...

Hi so i have a Onkyo Receiver with AccuEQ and it seems like it set my Subwoofer as the closest speaker in the room despite it being the farthest away is this normal? I know its normal for the receiver to set the sub typically further away but i never seen it set something closer i will note...

Hi i really would like to know what others use when you lack a tri-pod i tried several things but who knows if it sounds right. I even used a box fan and put the mic on top of that lol its plastic so i figured why not and it was at ear level perfectly. What can i use i'm even thinking about...

For real it drives me nuts lol that i see so many budget receivers come with pre-outs for Zone B(Which i will never use) like WTF why not allow that to be used for the front speakers instead? Instead units are getting so expensive you basically have to spend 1000$ just to get that feature. If...

All i would like to know is a modern Denon do you have to use the OSD if you are just planning on using the optical input and have it connected to a PC? My current Pioneer lets me do everything from the display on the receiver including the useless MCACC setup I would still like to set up the...

I always wondered how headphones that are claimed to be neutral like the 6xx and AKG K702's when they have measurably recessed sub bass? I'm no bass head but i always wondered that in the headphone world? Am i the only one who shares these thoughts?

I have been trying for weeks to find a way to get my AKG’s to do virtual surround for gaming and movies. I finally got it to work and it works so well that I felt like making a guide for other people! This works for ANY pair of headphones and is 100% free to do. It involves installing HeSuVi...

I owned several pairs of headphones but i pretty much started on AKG's K7XX and i refuse to ever get a pair that doesn't have the same sound stage or even bigger due to me watching movies and playing games on them just as much as i listen to music. 1. My question is this for under $400 what...

Ok i know what it is now lol sorry its late but why is their distortion even when its barely in use? Very new to measurements.

Due to this evil virus i have been stuck inside kind of bored and wanting to play with some knew toys i really want to see if getting the new Atom Amp would be worth it? I currently own the DT 770's 80ohm AKG k7xx and my newly ordered K712 Pro's that should be here later this week. Also new...
