er what is ur source?
on board sound card?

GUYS i found cheap k240 pads liao

from taobao http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8838662253

ya i think it's cos of onboard soundchip.

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8859938373 around 15-20 rm more but have 8

try getting a dac out to amp den to phones. i don think the xfi sounds very nice. i'll look at audio gd nf 12

50ohm is quite easy to drive. my iems are 50ohm but i feel tat on the fuze a little more juice would be better. just feels a little lack in power

got pple on hardwarezone doing spree for taobao
1 pair come in at $35.62 sgd. maybe check if got pple doing orders from them in lowyat or other msia forums?

the xfi have on board amp. by using a amp u amp-ing the already amped sound out of the xfi, which i think is not really recommended.(read it b4 but forgot).
n @ Hackezkk. i would not recommend that setup cos from dac out u cannot adjust volume and also there might be dc offset from dac unless there is coupling caps out of the dac. i would always recommend an amp after the dac.

what the dac does is covert the digital signal from ur pc to analog forum.
n ur amp will amplify the signal to volume required for ur listening. normally by going thru an amp the sound will change due to the parts inside the amp modifying the signal.

hope to see some comparison between hd660 vs the hd330.

great... now hoping my sr850 will come later else is next week le.
also just ordered a hd660 lol so wanna see how it fair against the 330

agree that the high are harsh. I m using the sr850 which is actually the same as the 668b. the pads are hot! hope trio get the velour pads soon.

it goes *PIIIIIING* and my ears echo high *WEEEEEENG* dont get this haha

lol if i put max on my soundcard i would go deaf instantly. not onboard soundcard it's the ht omega claro with asio i cannot only listen max at 25-40 volume else i will go deaf

hmm my sr850 feels ok for me n it's suppose to be tighter then the 668b lol. only the pads very hot

what is that lol? stylus?

issit the hd 386?

any comparison between 660 n 330 ?? xD

u mean 669? i think the pricing is there already. 180 from trio

don bother with the e5 it doesnt really improve things. What u need is a dac & amp.

don forget a dac if u are using a laptop/desktop for source unless u are using dedicated sound card.
By amping the onboard sound chip it's still will sound bad esp. if there's a lot of static.
