clipping

I added a high-pass filter in Roon to see if I could hear a difference in layering and overall clarity on certain songs without the bass content. But adding the high-pass filter results in digital clipping. Can anyone explain why? Scenario: - set the headroom adjustment to -4dB to accommodate...

Hi there! I'm trying to understand the reasoning of why PEACE shows in some songs that's clipping. I went through Ending the Windows Audio Quality Debate thread to know how should I control my volume and ended up applying in PEACE pre amp -0.14dB. Wanna know why? Give it a read! It's very...

Hello everyone. Just bought a brand new Topping DX3 Pro + to pair with my Ananda. According to Amir's measurements, the amp should clip at about 2 Vrms at a 16 ohms load, which is the headphone's resistance. I put the Ananda's specs (93 db/1mW & 16 ohm impedance) at a headphone calculator and...

Hey All, I am purchasing a pair of the Klipsch Jubilee that have an active crossover and I am struggling to consider what I need to do to yield the best signal chain. I asked Klipsch at what input voltage their crossover clips at and they didn't have that data. All they said was its...

hi somedays ago i was looking for audiophile albums , and in the list there is Lorde 's Melodrama i don't know if the list is related to cds or vinyls (just because in vinyls I guess they could not make play too loud ) well since I own Lorde 's Melodrama cd , I have ripped in flac with...

why is it distorted as shown in the video? it's only on the PC, i connected it to the laptop and it works normal if I connect the guitar and put it completely in direct mode (between direct and USB) the guitar sound comes out normal both on PC and laptop is a M-AUDIO M TRACK II about the...

Hello ASR, thank you in advance for answering my silly question. I have a hunch that this has been standardized in the industry, only that I'm not good enough at googling. As we know, there are two ways wave-forms add: for coherent ones, two equal signals in phase adds into something with 2x...

Hello, I'm using TOPPING’s dac E70, preamplifier PRE90 and electrostatic headphone amplifier EHA5 with my active speakers(Genelec 8030c). I'm having a problem of clipping in a certain situation while using these devices. I am not good at English, but I will explain the situation where I suffer...

Hi there. I'm an inexperienced audio person, and have recently set up an Extron XPA 1002 amp (non-plus version, so rated at 60W @ 8 Ohm and 100W @ 4 Ohm) driving a pair of Chora 826 (8 Ohm nominal, 2.9 Ohm min). Actually chose both of these by reading this website, so thanks! (The DAC is the...

After reading a lot of confusing comments about the Topping DX3 Pro+'s limited support of low impedance headphones, I’m trying to figure out if I will run into any clipping issues (or protection circuit issues) with that amp if I pair it with my Audeze LCD-X headphones. Here are my rudimentary...

Hi, i have question about eq apo. Can this software really destroy your speakers if you dont use preamp with boost on bass or mids, or preamp in this software can bring only frequency destruction and not destroy your drivers. Im just interested if it have voltage clipping. If yes, it really must...

Hi, Need some help. Pretty much a noob. I recently got my DT990 pro 250ohms. I'm currently using it with my Behringer UMC404HD interface without a headphone amp. I'm noticing that the right driver is clipping (crackling?) at certain frequencies. It happens randomly so I'm not sure about the...

So I'm looking for a good pair of open, neutral, low-impedance dynamics that don't push $1k, and the Elex seems to be exactly what I'm looking for, but there seems to be talk of problems with it in the past. So what's all this about clipping and a replacement pad debacle? Are those perforated...

Hello I'm really a full-blown newbie when it comes to this sort of things unfortunately... I currently have a Monoprice THX 887 (pretty much the same as the Massdrop THX AAA 789 I'm sure, I just made the title THX 789 since it is more well known I guess) and along with it a Chord Hugo 2 as...

Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldnt find an answer so far. When looking at headphone amp measurements the distortion always goes down the more power you are putting out of it, except for when its clipping at the end. Is that correct? What is the physical explanation for this...
