Modded headphones with qudelix at the core
When I received the Qudelix 5K, I had already modified a pair of Superlux HD-681 headphones. I previously soldered my own balanced connections to the drivers, providing multiple ways to connect and...

A decent set of IEMs
I am in the midst of a 300 hour burn-in but, I will say I am enjoying how this set sounds so far. Before I received these which was btw late by a few weeks, I purchased a Sony/Kimber Kable MMCX...

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?
I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup
Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

$10 Drop Coupon Email not sent?
Trying to buy some gear off Drop for the first time. I was told I would receive an email with a welcome to drop $10 off promo. I never received that email. Drop was able to send me emails for my login token and email for Password update. But for some reason the $10 off coupon was never sent to me.

New here
Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

I can't tell you from experience how the two compare, but I can tell you that getting this DAC/Amp (actually so much more... it really is a mixture of fine quality audiophile gear and computer audio swiss army knife) along with an excellent gaming headset has completely changed the way I experience both my games and my music. I have paired my E5 with the Sennheiser GAME ONE headset, and now not only can I hear when someone is creeping up behind me in game, but I can actually pinpoint the location from which his footsteps are coming. I also use this with my laptop from time to time, and as a DAC/Amp for my iPod Touch when I'm listening to music with my Sennheiser HD 650s (Tidal HiFi).
I have not been able to find anything bad to say about it. It is an amazing peice of kit, and as long as I take good care of it and my headset, I don't see myself ever getting anything different for gaming.
That's the end of it though. It doesn't work well as a portable. It can be battery powered (4x AA's) but I'm trying to stay away from any type of battery solution. I even use my controllers wired now. I'm going to give this E5 a shot.
When I'm planning to do any music listening or gaming on my laptop (heck, even movies get a much-needed quality boost), this thing is an absolute godsend! So, I can't imagine this not getting a lot of use unless you already have a bunch of amazing audiophile gear.
