question

Hello everyone, It's me again, a while ago I asked how to get deeper bass with my Genelec 8361 here : https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/a-subwoofer-with-my-genelec-8361a.58510/ After playing around with the recommended setting of you guys, I found that even if the...

I've tried to do a simple experiment with my phone. there's an app called Decibel X on google Playstore. It works like a Decibel meter. I've watched a video on youtube and it seems kinda accurate or at least close to accurate. I tried to play music with my headphones and the music averaged at 75...

Hey everyone! Happy Black Friday season! I’m hoping to get some advice from the audio‑savvy folks here With all the deals popping up, I’m wondering if it’s worth upgrading part of my setup — specifically the amp — or if the difference won’t really be noticeable. My system is a small 5.1.2...

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well and that I'm in the right place on this forum for such a thread. It's my first time posting on this forum that I'm sometimes looking at for precious advice or to look at all the knowledge covered here, it's quite amazing ! Anyway my question today is...

Is it overkill to add an Atom Amp+ onto the SMSL DL100? I’m only driving HD 600’s, so my question is: will the additional power add anything substantial to the DAC/Amp combo of the DL100 (better dynamics, bass, etc.) or is it just overkill? Thanks!

Hi there! I recently bought a pair of Sennheiser HD 560S for testing against my old trusty HD598's. So far I'm happy with them, but I'm noticing a bit of clipping here and there. This makes me wonder whether or not my AVR is capable of driving the headphones. The HD560S are rated at 120 ohms...

I have been using a Topping E50/L50-Stack for some time now, and I used the E50 (DAC) with a variable outout, so I could control the volume with the remote. I now set the E50 up in DAC-Mode (fixed output), and the Amp (L50) plays notably louder. I know this should not happening, but it...

Heyy first time poster. Recently got into headphones and got myself a “good” headphone the sennheiser hd 58x. They are great headphones I have never listen to music like this before. Like the music has expanded I can hear details in specific directions like forward and backwards which I think is...

Hello, I just got the Topping DX9 and have an issue. I only use USB input connect to my PC, but every time I turn this DAC on, it switches to other input automatically, it's so annoying. How can I save my input to USB so I don't have to switch the input manually every time I turn the DAC on?

Hi, I just bought my first serious headphones ever - a Hifiman Edition XS. The cans are second-hand and the seller replaced the original 3.5 cable with a 4.4 one. The price is surprisingly good, only 250$ including shipping. So I want to buy a balanced DAC/AMP that can fully exploit their...

Hello there everyone! Please bare with me here since I am new to this forum and I don't understand if I do something wrong (even this post I don't know for sure if it belongs here, sorry in advance if not). To jump to the issue: I recently bought a Topping E30 II Lite DAC to go with my Topping...

Greetings, I want headphones for enjoying, comfortable, pleasant, probably emotional, possibly fun listening. Budget up to about $300. As I heard the phrase, in a review of the DT 990 Pro from a sound engineer, where he compared them from the point of use of mixing/mastering, he said that these...

Hello wise people, does anyone know if the T0+ is coming to Germany? I'm looking for a small desktop speaker that can easily be connected to a subwoofer and the Vanatoos seem like the perfect candidate. The T0 is available in Germany but not the T0+ Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm searching to buy a USB interface that I can use for two purposes: 1) Play HD music from a Raspberry Pi through usb and connecting the (line) output to an amplifier. 2) Record music from my turntable (through my iFi Zen phono preamp, so it needs to have a line input) to a Raspberry...

Hello all, Lately, I've been enjoying my 600 ohm DT880's. I bought them primarily for gaming, but when EQ'd, they become the most well-rounded headphone I own. The sound fills out, while retaining strong detail and spatiality + all-day comfort. I watched some Beyer teardowns on youtube, and...

Hi everyone, I want to create an audio setup for TV/Movies in my living room. The speakers are 6ft away from the couch and will be directly in front of a wall. For music listening, I need the sound to reach 10ft behind the speakers (dining room). I have a budget of $500 CAD. Source: Movies/TV...

Hello all - Over the past few days I've consumed what seems to be an overload of data and find myself semi going in circles when it comes to an AVR. Primary use will be Home Theater with music being secondary. Planned devices connected: cable box, Apple TV, maybe 1 gaming console. Setup...

I've purchased IER-M9. Blind purchase, and the sound they output is "weird" on any source. Before that I've owned Moondrop Blessing 2, and they sounded much closer to my dynamic headphones. Now I'm wondering if something's wrong with the headphones I got (some form of internal damage), but i...

Hi Friends! I've been looking to upgrade my current audio interface to something that better suits my needs. I've basically narrowed it down to two interfaces: - RME Babyface FS Pro - Motu Ultralite Mk5 What really matters to me as a electronic music producer is clean audio with not to much...

So I have a pair of speakers that have the option to adjust the gain of high frequencies by one or two dB by putting the thingamabobs in a certain position (see image). Does anyone know what these are called? I seem to have lost mine and would like to buy a pair, that is if they are sold seperately.
