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...

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.

Style: I bought these mostly because I wanted ear plugs that are discrete, so that when i'm at loud bars/clubs/concerts I don't get weird looks for wearing earplugs. They serve this purpose excellently. I've never had anyone notice them, that i'm aware of.
Comfort/fit: I find that they are fine to wear for many hours on end, but by the end of the day I'm happy to take them out. So there's some fatigue over time but it's slight. They definitely aren't as comfortable as regular foam earplugs. At least for me. I also realized that really i should have two different sized ones, one for each ear, and its a shame that they don't offer that option.
Sound Attenuation/Performance: These definitely don't reduce SPL as much as regular foam plugs. From my guess (I used to audio edit/mix indie films, and I still work in video production today) they cut an a-weighted average of 10 db less than regular foam plugs. But, it's certainly a more even cut of frequencies than regular foam plugs, the highs aren't cut as severely. Where the foam ones would cut 10khz by 40db, these are more like 20db. At really loud concerts, talking 110+ db, I bring these and some foam plugs, because sometimes these just don't cut enough sound (Yes, even with a good seal). So I swap out the EARasers for the foam ones when it gets super loud.
TLDR: I really like my EARasers and would recommend them to anyone who wants discrete earplugs and modest SPL attenuation. But they aren't the most comfy and don't reduce sound as much as i would like sometimes.
