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.

Granted I don't have killer cans like most of the folks on here, but I do have what I consider some of the most underrated cans ever JBL Synchro 500s. B/c they added this P.O.S. onboard DSP gimmick they got heavily dismissed by the community. Fortunately, it has an on off option, and without it on these sound fantastic.
And once I got these plugged into the M9XX, their entire character changed for me. Music became significantly more detailed and distinct, base and lower registers which I've always enjoyed on the 500s sounded better than ever--very clear, full, and moving. Playing music by Julia Kent is an absolute dream.
I, of course, had to try out some DSD files too, and I couldn't be more impressed. The only opportunity I'd ever had to listen to DSD was via downsampling on my PC (thus defeating the whole purpose). Now what I'm enjoying thanks to my M9xx is a complete reintroduction to my entire music library. It sounds like I purchased all new hi-fi copies of everything.
Also for those looking for some DSD files to try out, I found a set of 8 free tracks on Native DSD (https://members.nativedsd.com/albums/just-listen-1-compilation). Once you create an account, you can download them for free in various formats. I do NOT work for or have a referral code or in any other way am affiliated with Native, I just needed to try out the bleeding edge of my equipment's capabilities.
For a player, I used foobar2000, and couldn't be happier.
Anyway, thanks, Massdrop--this one is a real winner and makes ANYTHING I plug into it sound better. At some point, I'll move from my mid-fi cans to hi-fi, and then I bet I'll have the same situation where I get to explore my collection all over again as though it was brand new!
