Thank you for the advice. We both have gaming Desktops but his is better than mine so his soundcard may be better. I will have to sit down and have a proper listening test.

I can clearly hear the rain with my Kph30is plugged directly to the onboard audio. (and *5 noisy fans cooling my system)

I wonder if Apple knows how much cred they got from that little dongle...

I live in the EU so getting the EU apple dongle is more convenient, is it worth getting?

Is the EU version of the apple dongle good too? I live in the EU and importing from US is a bit too expensive

> I love how they are cheap because I dont have to worry about handling them super delicately, its anxiety free
The parts for HD650 are hardly available, I had to pay for a whole headband assembly just to change my broken "hinge".

I know 50 Cent In Da Club has well produced bass, and good headphones will separate the different types of bass. Before I thought there was only bass, but with better headphones I learned there are 3 different types of bass in the song and it's fun to be able to differentiate then.

I would recommend the Qudelix 5K. In case he want to use BT or EQ down the road.

What currency is that? I can get those new for around $280 AUD so unless you've got a weaker currency that doesn't sound like a great deal you got

The only way I can make the sound out of PC as good as from my Iphone is by using an external DAC and WASAPI (it bypasses windows sound/enhancements). Although, if you want to EQ with WASAPI you need to do through Roon (which is very much recommended but cannot be used with Apple Music).

Yeah, you will need something with parametric eq to enable it. I have set it up on my RME dac, on PC with Peace equalizer and on my android DAP with USB Audio Player Pro. You can look here for preset for your headphones link

Reply to Moon Drop Aria w/Fiio Btr5 by Generaldar
If you don't mind me asking, what are you using as your portable source? Just curious because I've been looking at the btr5k and btr3k and the aria's.

I always wished I started with HD6xx series to see what the fuss is about and later upgrade to HD800S. Now I'm not sure if going back to try them after listening to HD800S is worth it.
BTW - The HD800S usually go on sale for around 1,200 - 1,300, so keep your eyes out!

I wouldn't get the Fiio, if you want it for the PR1 Pro, get the KZ AZ09 Pro, it fits that perfectly and sounds great on it too. It's more comfortable and much cheaper too, and the whole package is smaller than the Fiio.
I checked with my MMCX-2 pin adapters, the PR1 will not fit in the case at all with these, it's not possible to squash it in because the hook would be out of the case then. There might be a chance with the angled adapters, but I wouldn't do it when there is a cheaper alternative that fits it perfectly.
Get the AZ09 Pro which is great.

Haha, I think the Audiophile world distorted my view XD. I got it for £350 which to be fair, is ''cheap'' compared to headphones I was looking at for over £1000.
