pre-vista it used to suck in windows. It's fine now. There are all sorts of anomalies associated with usb audio and resampling, but unless you happen to believe in Shannon-Nyquist, you'll just be like this guy only with audio:

>Stoddard and Moffat don’t need to play hard ball with demos and sales talk. Schiit’s now established price/performance ratio pretty much sells itself. >“Valhalla 2 is now fully ready for efficient, low-impedance headphones, with switchable gain and only 3.5 ohms output impedance in low gain mode (14 ohms in high gain). And Valhalla 2′s performance into high-impedance headphones is even better than ever. :rolleyes: >“We’re not going to make any claims about sonics, but it’ll definitely stop USB noise and power problems in their tracks. Some people say Wyrd makes everything sound better. We don’t know how it can possibly do so, so we’re going to stay Swiss on the subject.” well at least they're honest that it's a one port USB hub with a "clock" chip. Least hilarious part of the article, ironically. What's funny is how they now have to list their output impedances every time they release a new product.

also why do you still have those dashes printed on the front plates when they never line up with your bigger knobs?

I didn't know being an audiophile had anything to do with the ability to pick out instruments. I always thought it was about picking out the differences in amps, but I'll give it a shot: 1. clarinet 2. alto (western) flute 3. Is this a trick question? It's a thee piece orchestra with a violin, mezzo violin, and a harp (might be a quartet with a very quite Cello, too!). Guess you were looking for the violin? 4. French Horns and Trumpets/Cornets and some violins. Guess you were looking for French Horns here since you just did violins? 5. Harp. More Horns and stuff. 6. Piano 7. Oboe (REEDS!) 8. Piccolo up top, as usual 9. Tuba and a piano 10. Trumpet 11. Snare Drum Also mai waifu no steal:

@lineasstech will you be doing a review of the audeze lcd2?

That's why I made it, there's too much misinformation about audio.
-
The e10 drives my 250 Ohm dt990s plenty loud for me. Then again I've been known to like my audio much quieter than most. Whether or not you want a special amp is really all up to your opinion on that sense.
-
The pads are the same size, but the material is different I believe.
-
this thread is reminding me of the hammerforumusa.com joke from a while back: http://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2012/03/hammerforum-com btw, OP, you don't need an amp for the ATH M50x. Personally, I like them a lot and I use them when I travel quite a bit along with my Beyer COPs.

4chan?

Actually every individual Lcd-2 sounds a bit different. They are boutique headphones after all. I'd try to find the Rev 3 though since the major change has been to shore up the connector port on each cup. They crack on the earlier revisions.
-
I have the Xonar Essense STX and the DG. I agree with ShearMe. They all sound the same to me.
-
I'll just leave this here...
-
Premiums - Nicer finish, straight cable Pros - Curly cable bout it except the obvious lack of impedance choices, but all of the models sound nearly the same. The 250 Ohm model is fine. Get the Beyers. They're much cheaper, especially the Pros.

Start an emergency fund Save for higher education (e.g electrical engineering) Basically, anything other than spend it all on audio equipment.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3A-kD3-wAEc :rolleyes: OH YEAH WE'RE BOSE BIG SOUND SMALL SPEAKERS. It's marketed to jet set baby boomers so they can re-live the "glory days" of WWII or Woodstock or w/e so it's not really appealing to our generation. Basically if you don't feel important or drive a BMW, Bose is probably not marketing to you. So a lot of kids still see them as the "holier than thou" sound company and hate them. I can't blame them.

k, nvm then. I've just noticed on many occasions that certain programs can get really clingy to audio programs and cause them to run out of buffer and skip constantly.

you wouldn't happen to be running McAffee Antivirus by chance?

If you want build quality, get a pair of T1s. Or LCD-2s.

The answer: volume. bout it. The long answer is the first few questions on the FAQ. That's the first thread on the audio board if you didn't already know.

OK so April Fools! The real scoop on these headphones is simply that I have never been so disappointed in a headphone. It actually SOUNDS GOOD, but the hiss that the noise canceling portion puts off destroys that entire concept. What a shame, but really, the first thing anybody ever asks me when I show them one of my fancy headphones is: "does it have noise canceling?" So that's not going away anytime soon.
