Hi All !

I need some help, im newbs in audio... so..

I have a beyerdynamic dt 990 pro 250ohms, i have a soundblaster g6, work good but i have crackling sometimes..
The scoot mode is not very good (for me) and i hate playing with 5.1..
I prefer a strong 2.0..

I try the fiio k3, but Doesnt work on my ps4 and k3 is not enought powerful for the dt 990..

So.. I search a dac / amp who work on pc and ps4..

I see the e10k but can he drive this headset ?

4 days of search and nothing.. im sad..

Sorry for my bad english...

Hi,

I sold my mixamp pro tr. It's not enought

Thanks !

Yes both ps4 and pc.. first use nothing and à few days ago, crackling come on ps4 with bf5.
Some days later i play apex legend on pc and same crackling come on pc.
The sound is Nice without the scoot mode and sbx..
When i put the direct mode, i havent crackling
.. but my mic doesnt work.. (modmic5)

I can hear a huge différence with the direct mode.

I have the latest firmware, i dont understand why..
If i purchase an mic usb, i think he can work on pc easy but on ps4 with the g6 and dunno... ?

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 07:26

Well thanks ! I understand but i have the same crackling problem on my ps4 pro, in optical.. so

But my motherboard havent an optical output so..

I need To find an issue.

I think i go with an schiit modi 3 and magni 3

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 10:19

Well i think it's Nice

I find that the emulations of 5.1 or 7.1 does not give a good sound especially on games like R6. a good 2.0 is more interesting. But that's just my opinion.

If i plug a blue yeti, i think he can work no?

Thanks dude its more clearly for me

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 10:53

Are you sure ? I can see on YouTube yeti work with the ps4.

Yes!

I have to try.

the only thing that I'm having trouble with is this:

if I connect the ps4 only optics modi 3 and I feed it by the pc, do you think it will work? or I have to connect the dac usb on the ps4?

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 16:38

I mean power the dac with my computer and not the ps4. Just use the optical with the ps4.

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 17:15

Okay ! Nice its ok for me !

Thanks you for help !

FeelTheAnimal · 22 Feb 2019 at 17:59

Yes i purchase today ! This combo with pyst ! I think its good

FeelTheAnimal · 23 Feb 2019 at 08:02

Nice! I Will try this when my order come home.

There is a différence between low and high gain ?

FeelTheAnimal · 23 Feb 2019 at 20:58

Nice ! Okay thanks

I could try a lot of headphones, I had the Mixamp Pro Tr and I find that the surround sound distorts the sound and can be misleading. I find the G6 not so good that ca and quite expensive (in France)
I prefer to focus on a solid 2.0.

FeelTheAnimal · 25 Feb 2019 at 15:37

I am very disappointed with the G6. in the end I use it only without sbx or scoot mode. I prefer to play with a schiit stack 3...

FeelTheAnimal · 6 Mar 2019 at 15:28

Hi,

i receive my modi 3 and magni 3, work great on ps4, but when i want to use it on my computer, i haven't sound.. the dac is powered, but no sound, i don't understand why, i choose the usb output and nothing...

any suggestion ?

thanks a lot

FeelTheAnimal · 6 Mar 2019 at 15:47

Thanks dude!

I found the problem! Its the usb cable delivered with the modi 3. He doesnt work with my computer

All is good know

Thanks

FeelTheAnimal · 6 Mar 2019 at 16:04

Yes i try all my port and nothing happen with the modi3 cable. When i change, windows setup the modi and all work
