schiit amps are great for the price, they offer great value and are clearly at the very least above a bunch of audiophile BS stuff, or at least give the impression they are. My only issue with schiit DACs are that the usb controller or watever they're using is problematic, has been since the first gen. at least for me, i;ve had 3 schiit dac'ss and all 3 have had the same issue: usb fails after some time until you heat up the backside with a heatgun then it's fine for a bit again. generally i'm at the point where i don't want schiit dacs for USB just because of the bad experiences i've had (there's a bunch of ppl complaining about this online if you look for schiit dac usb issues and it's always the same thing)
unique wind
ive had my modi plugged in and turned on for almost 2 years with no issues
i believe you completely i just dont think it's as wide spread of an issue as it seems
thorny tulip
i believe you completely i just dont think it's as wide spread of an issue as it...
oh 100% no, not at all widespread, yea. it's apparently not just me though, and the issue seems to be smthg to that can be rectified by literally heating the dac up. i just have had really bad experiences with dacs and USB inputs in general over the years tbh
on that note: i'm looking at Cambridge Audio CXN v2, i bought it and trying it out RN and wanted to know:
purely for the sound, is the Cambridge Audio CXN v2 good for the price as a DAC? I like the streaming and the connectivity, am a bit confused by all the talk about the upsampling it does, and theres' not a lot of reviews on it. Compare it to another $1000 DAC would it stand on it's own? (notwithstanding marketing BS and the fact that CXN doesn't really do DSD)
unique wind
purely for the sound dacs are not supposed to sound different from one another
the reasons to get an expensive dac are connections, features, design, etc, they should all sound the same if they're all designed well
i’m not familiar with the upscaling you’re talking about though
thorny tulip
i’m not familiar with the upscaling you’re talking about though
apparnetly all modern dacs "oversample" to beffore hitting the dac chip. CA however advertises ssomething called "atf2 upsampling", whether that's basically the same thing every dac does or actually different in some way i don't know.

@unique wind THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! The cx31993 adapter you recommended finally came today and IT WORKS!!! No hiss whatsoever (as far as I have tested)
Amazon botched the shipping, it was supposed to be here last friday
Had to download an EQ program to add an EQ to the output but it was a simple job
just had to put a -15bd "pre-amp" setting on it so I could keep my windows volume setting where I usually have it (30, the DAC boosted it to where 15 was the same as the old 30 lvl). Accidentally bumped the pre-amp off while testing and blew my eardrums
unique wind
i’m glad it solved your problem man
calm forge
Depends on what you like. I'm a fan of KZ. Budget price but multiple drivers in one IEM. I'm using the KZ ZSN Pro X right now. I have a more of less V shaped EQ running and they sound good for music and gaming. High sensitivity so watch out for interference noise.

The v shaped ness of it

oh I see, is there a way to get around this?
my headphones have a 3.5mm jack would that help at all?
lean grove
oh I see, is there a way to get around this?
the way you get around it is by not using bluetooth. a lot of wireless gaming headsets have a little transmitter that uses wifi instead of bluetooth.
and maybe the 3.5mm jack would help. worst case scenario you get high quality audio through the headphones and no microphone
but that 3.5mm jack is worth trying at least. youll need a 4 pole 3.5mm cable if you want your mic to work
assuming your headset can use a 4 pole 3.5mm to transmit its mic, that is
marsh wren

I am probably going to get an dedicated microphone my main priority is to have good audio quality and I guess bluetooth is optional for that.
my headphone microphone is atrocious anyway so I'll pass on that
I don't know too much about audio cables is there like a ideal type I should try to get?
do you have any recommendations
lean grove
no. so long as you get the right connection type. the only thing that matters after that is durability.
and as far as durability goes, just try and find something with an appropriately chunky strain relief around the connectors
marsh wren
gotcha
thank you for the help!
I feel like dropping 30 dollars on a cable is pretty bs
but what do you think
lean grove
looks too rigid
and heavy
and that material looks like it'll broadcast vibrations right into your headphones every time you move
i had one from anker that was alright. and im also seeing some from monster that look good
marsh wren
they are like 4 feet long
hard to find some that are like 6 feet
hmm
I think 4 feet will work alright
holy found one for 9 feet lol
this is an out there idea but do you think its possible if I use a dedicated mic that I will be able to listen to audio thats not so low quality
because the problem isnt that one side is good quality and the other is bad its once I join a call all audio that goes to my headphones is total crap

yes ive heard of monster. i have a pair of $500 monster garden hose cables i found at a yard sale
but also these are $10
and have a proper strain relief
haughty girder
and the strain relief is stiff enough that the cable will still crack right underneath it
I don't have that exact cable so I can't say for sure
but I have a few of their flat cables and they're not well made
very noisy

idk man.
almost no 1 or 2 star amazon reviews
if there's one thing amazon reviews like to do its show off broken products

it should come with the cable with a mic and controls built into the cable
and they use Apple's controltalk volume resistance thing instead of androids
haughty girder

haughty girder
interesting
anyways you're best off going to amazon, searching beats solo 3 cable and getting the cheapest one
solo 3 connector is a tiny bit recessed iirc which makes the cable plug thickness matter
marsh wren
haughty girder
I'd assume there's cheaper if you don't need the charging cable as well
marsh wren
says discontinued by manufacturer
so I probably got mine after it
I already ordered the dedicated mic so hopefully it works out since I want to keep bluetooth but it not I'll probably get the cord

move the interface away from other electronics
move every wire related to your audio setup from other electronics and wires
and lastly is getting a usb power cleanser

average tube amp enjoyer
Tube amp is all about distortion so it's not wrong...
unique wind
if an amp has a non linear frequency response it failed at being an amp
molten lotus
I find most differences between amps and not between dacs
most dacs that achieve neutral are
well
neutral?
haughty girder
if an amp has a non linear frequency response it failed at being an amp
it only failed to being a "hifi" amp
steel escarp
okay for a second imagine it was not the dac chip itself that is causing it to sound better or worse, there are still a lot of factors that differ per device that'd impact how it sounds like how it handles the power from the wall
dynamic range will differ by factors like noise floor
molten lotus
michael if you want to observe by a scientific point then you can still see different dacs sample in different forms
glossy shore
I find most differences between amps and not between dacs
dacs have a preamp inside and thats the issue if its cheep rubbish
haughty girder
We literally add fuzz into guitar tones using pedals for what? To make the sound different. that doesn't mean it failed at being an electric guitar
unique wind
i’m curious to know if you personally can hear when polarity is flipped
it’s a very obvious change to my ears
haughty girder
And yes, guitar pickups have flavors too!
unique wind
it’s extremely obvious on my planar headphones
haughty girder
i’m curious to know if you personally can hear when polarity is flipped
on one channel or both?
unique wind
flipping both
i don’t really have a preference between the two they just sound different
haughty girder
It's similar enough that idc
After I flipped one connector on my tripowin leas while repairing it and then flipping the other because I epoxied the first one together already
eheh
but anyways
unique wind
sharur says it is so it probably is yeah
but your source chain and cables can flip polarity too
haughty girder
isn't he400se inverted phase by default
I don't think it matters when everything else about it is kinda iffy
I'm not an HE400se enjoyer
steel escarp
kato or he400se?
haughty girder
I much prefer all three 150 dollar dynamic headphones over it
ie DT880, k612 and HD560s
unique wind
it sounds pretty solid with corrective eq but you can’t fix the pads being itchy and there being zero clamp with a bad headband
haughty girder
in that order too
steel escarp
DT880 on a good amp is nutty
haughty girder
Only the 600ohm one tho
haughty girder
250 is fine, any lower and you're getting into weird territory
Like in theory they should sound the same
steel escarp
this amp is what I use rn for my dynamics
unique wind
they should yeah but beyerdynamic is bad
haughty girder
but something with damping factor (even past 1:8) makes the higher impedance ones sound much more controlled overall...
unique wind
different ohm models of the same headphones sound and measure very different
haughty girder
they should yeah but beyerdynamic is bad
nah they got... 1.5 good headphones
unique wind
totally different frequency response
steel escarp
dt990 250 ohms sounded like complete ass this amp
unique wind
250ohm 770s are atrocities but the 80ohm is pretty fixable if you have your own measurement rig
haughty girder
dt990 doesn't matter they're all garbage
steel escarp
DT880 600 and 250 are similar enough that it's fine
still an audible difference in decay
faster decay means better staging
unique wind
dt990 is also very fixable but has weird ass squiggly upper treble stock
haughty girder
still an audible difference in decay
not enough to warrant me hating it
decay in this case would be caused by damping factor no?
or more like changed
haughty girder
dt990 is also very fixable but has weird ass squiggly upper treble stock
it's just not worth the hassle
when 880 is straight up better
steel escarp
decay in this case would be caused by damping factor no?
I think so
the dt880 actually slaps with my amp
the bass is not boosted
unique wind
eqd 990 is easily the best of the 3
steel escarp
but its so well defined and present
haughty girder
eqd 990 is easily the best of the 3
Eh I'd still disagree
steel escarp
which it was not on my zen can or magni 3+
unique wind
but id rather have an 80ohm 770 or any 880 if i wasn’t allowed to use eq
haughty girder
it's very heavily damped
unique wind
who cares man
steel escarp
dt990 treble is too harsh for me
haughty girder
880 is better
unique wind
it has the best soundstage and the smoothest frequency response post eq
haughty girder
880 black edition is a piece of garbage tho
steel escarp
also for its open sound it feels very thin sounding
and not that big
dt880 bigger
haughty girder
I make this argument a lot: Fuck soundstage in headphones
steel escarp
but what if sound stage indicates better decay
haughty girder
It's like saying "oh this iem is bad because it's too narrow compared to this iem"
but at the end of the day it's an iem it's gonna be narrow anyways
unique wind
no iem has physical capabilities that give it wide sound stage it’s almost entirely dependent on frequency response for those
they’re literally in your ear
steel escarp
the tips do change it too
weak rapids
eqd 990 is easily the best of the 3
Ew 990
haughty girder
yes I know it doesn't interact with the pinna at all
unique wind
frequency response in the 12-20k region can change sound stage dramatically and our measurements for up there are iffy at best
haughty girder
but at the same time it's still an iem you're not escaping the fact the driver is literally 1cm from your ear
and the tuning becomes a very fine line between "wide" staging and straight up harsh
(hi ssr)
unique wind
yeah jacking air frequencies to improve spaciousness can only go so far before it sounds weird
haughty girder
either way if you're after staging, speakers or just go live concert
which is still speakers
molten lotus
live concert is pain
haughty girder
just further away
unique wind
it’s annoying that well made speakers are expensive if you aren’t open to diy
haughty girder
Eh
depends on your definition of expensive
308p aren't bad at all
aren't too expensive
unique wind
of course as everything does
steel escarp
somehow IEMs have better dynamic impact than speakers
unique wind
saying budget is relative is a nonstatement
haughty girder
somehow IEMs have better dynamic impact than speakers
and it can't sustain the bass as well
you have a larger cone ofc it's gonna take longer to get moving
steel escarp
you want to hear bass bouncing back and forward in your room that takes a bit to decay
unique wind
you’d be surprised how hard iems hit with subbass if there isn’t a shelf in the mid to upper bass
steel escarp
gaming with a subwoofer is awesome tho

i should just buy variations, plug them into my utws5. and abandon headphones

unique wind
at least audeze drivers are usually very low distortion so if you can measure your own pair you could fix them with eq
but that’s a shitty business practice
steel escarp
audeze drivers are tensioned too loosely
haughty girder
that's literally what they were going for with the isine
steel escarp
shit treble but better bass resonance
haughty girder
just eq it
unique wind
just eq it genuinely works with many products but the issue is very few people can measure their own pairs to see if there’s any unit variance
steel escarp
audeze unit variation too big to copy random EQ from the internet
unique wind
i think i remember reading that you can request to see the frequency response measurements of your specific headphones if you buy lcd-x or any higher model
but not with the 2 series
which is ironic because the 2 series is better

A question about ear buds.

you get rebound congestion so bad that it genuinely feels like your nose doesnt exist when you try to breathe, there's zero airflow like you have a flat face

your nose will also run like a faucet at random while being fully plugged
