I was under the impression that power and volume is the same thing. If that’s not the case you could theoretically built an amplifier that has tons of power and very little volume and vice versa, right?
Just trying to get this right as everybody seems to say something else.

Good job.

My phone auto corrected the spelling but i did not know there was a difference haha. That's my English ignorance there. Ill be mindful of using the right spelling in the future :).

Yeah its more portable. Imho the dt 700 is better for metal - more soundstage, simply more detailed.
I bought the xl cushions for my m100, gonna compare them.

Aside from the fact that most modern well engineered DACs are audibly transparent, there's also the fact that you're comparing 2 DACs by the same company. FYI, the m1 macbooks are almost as well messing as the apple dongle.

A little off topic, but since you're using masculine pronouns for him, the spelling should be fiancé jsyk! Fiancée is the feminine version in French, so a woman to whom someone is engaged to be married, with fiancé being the masculine form. Regardless, great headphones and a great gift!

Reply to Got ATH-msr7b for Christmas, find them a bit ‘empty‘ sounding. What’s a good alternative? by julesibulesi
A good budget friendly closed back would be the AKG K371. I owned the MSR7 and would say that the K371 makes for a good complementary pair.

Reply to comment by Amazing_rocness in top two. Want mid level easier to drive by Amazing_rocness
For metal I would really recommend looking into the 1990 or 1770. The 1990 is just a tad bit better but the 1770 has great isolation as a close back.

Reply to How much of a difference can I expect if I buy boutique aftermarket cables? by undecidables
I've blindly A and B tested multiple cables and it wasn't surprising at all that there was no difference at all between them.
A friend insists that his weird cotton wrapped cable enhances treble and whatnot.. I would say it only enhances the seller's bank account.

Reply to good next step after schiit magni/modi stack? by cidit_
A good beer or any other type of booze that you like. No headphone or amp can bring you the same enjoyment that being drunk can.
But as always, drink responsibly and not too often.

Why not? The HD800s have really damn good soundstage and I don't know any other headphone that comes close at its price point. But the sound signature isn't quite my cuppa tea. So why not fix it literally for free? If I want a perfect headphone I'd have to buy the HE-1. But I don't have that kinda money, so I tune what I DO have to more suit my liking.
