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.

Very initial sound impression wasn't very good. Then I switched from listening to Madeon to listening to some DnB (MRSA definitely made an appearance), and I've transitioned into other music and now back to the Madeon track I was listening to and my impression has improved. This track was a bad choice initially—it's pretty bass heavy, but that's really accentuated by these headphones—but coming back to it after getting a feeling for the headphones changes my impression.
As I've listened, the soundstage has expanded a bit. It's not a huge soundstage, but it's not the worst I've had. These really highlighted how wide the soundstage on my Westone 30s (also bought from MD, which can't stop selling me headphones) is, since I came to these directly after using those. Again, the track I first listened to colored my perception of these: it has a very much centered bass track, which makes the soundstage sound shallower than it actually is.
These headphones are pretty bass-heavy, but that's not a problem for me. A few years ago, when I was just getting into higher-end (as in not the very cheapest I could get) headphones, I thought I wanted neutral sound, but I've since realized I like having a tuned sound (and a bit of a focus on the low end in that tuning is a good thing). These are *more* bass-heavy than I'm used to, but the bass isn't (normally) overpowering.
Having tried these out for a bit, I think they may be my new desktop headphones. I was using my ATH-M40xs for a while, and last week I picked up a pair of AKG K240 Studios that I haven't used a lot yet, but these are light, comfortable, closed-back, and sound pretty good to me. If I want a bit less of a bass focus I'll go back to the M40xs or the K240s, but I'm pretty happy with these sound-wise.
