Does anyone know if Audeze Isine 10 are any good?
I am thinking about buying Audeze Isine 10 iem & would like to know if they are worth getting. I listen to music close to 16 hours a day & all types of music besides country & rap. Before anyone complains about excessive headphone use being bad for hearing I use my headphones for around 3 hours a day.

Hmm, pardon me for asking these. But does that mean you have your own speaker setup? (You're listening to music 16 hours a day, but use headphones 3 hours a day) If so, just use them, really. If you need that privacy, the iSine doesn't guarantee it as well, since (I think you might know this already) it's an open back IEM.
Alright, so the truth is, we listen to things every day, it matters not if you wanna hear a music 2 minutes a day or near 24 hours. The most important thing is how loud are you listening to it. According to OSHA, if you can keep the loudness at around 85dB, it's actually fine to listen for 16 hours or so. Any longer and you need to turn the volume knob down to a 'safer' levels.
Ok, now to address the main question. Yes, the Audeze iSine 10 is a capable IEM, for me. Sound signature wise it's your own preference but for me, I neither like or dislike it. It's got the perks of being an open back, so it's got a wide soundstage, but it's sound is not my thing. The vocals are strong, and the bass is powerful, but it has the standard Audeze feel to it as well if you got the seal right. Audeze's house sound is tuned to be on the darker side, so if you like some 'air' in your music this one might not be it. It works very well for rap though, I think

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.
