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 was secretly concerned given all the snafus, silence, and shifted timelines that fit and finish would suffer as UE tried to catch up, and I would suffer through the refit process, which is the worst. I had to do re-fit years ago with my JH5's.
Pleasantly surprised. These things fit perfectly. I didn't realize how poorly my JH5 sealed until I put these on. The sound is of course unreal. I don't really want to take these out of my head.
For me, the end product more than compensates for the delays involved, especially for the price paid. I understand this may not be the case for some.
It was very irritating that we were in the dark frequently for long stretches. I would have appreciated hearing something, anything, even if it was "nothing is happening, sorry". But I still feel like I got a great deal.
I honestly think way more people than anticipated joined this drop, and originally reasonable timeline expectations became crushingly impossible. On a drop like this, linear increase in participants yields exponential increase in logistic pain.
Hopefully MD and UE can learn from this and better manage everyone's expectations in similar future ventures. The UERM are completely worth it, and I would hate to see MD or UE say "never again."
Hassan did a pretty superhuman job taking over while I was out, and we've learned a lot from this experience. I definitely wouldn't rule out another cool drop with UE, and if/when it happens we'll make sure to keep participants updated as much as possible.
Additionally, I hope you folks at massdrop don't take all the negativity personally. As @NicholasDaniel said, the vast majority of people are keeping updated and going about their lives. It seems a few people are totally fixated which turned into a vocal minority.
Lastly, when I contacted massdrop, I found you to be responsive and very helpful. It seems communications only simmered when your personal circumstances got involved. I had actually started to get a little worried since you had been so responsive and suddenly dropped off radar. The audio community is more close knit than it might initially appear. I was deeply saddened to read your email update. It's nice to see you posting again and seriously wish you the best in recovering. See you on the high seas, you ABS. Arrrrrr
Anyways, mine are waiting at work for me to pick up tonight, so I get to spend some more time with my Dunu DN-2000 before stuffing them into luggage...
All that I'm trying to say, is that you should be patient. At least more so than myself. I think most drops re-launch at least a couple months apart, if not more.
