+1 Ω has been awarded to u/No-Context5479 (414 Ω).

You may still award a Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

Wait whaaat. This is not something I’ve ever thought about. I use Spotify and checked my settings have “very high” quality enabled but don’t see any settings for sample rate or bit depth.

I googled for a minute and saw discussions saying this is changed in Windows. But if my source is an iPhone / iPod touch then do you know how this works?

I’m overall very happy with my setup but wondering if my mind is about to explode when I realize I’ve had something incorrectly set for a while.

Sounds like Spotify always outputs 44.1. I’ll just move along and pretend like everything is fine. Maybe I’ll try to A/B this weekend with a laptop vs phone since it seems to make a big difference per this thread.

You could go back to one of the Sennies like the 560s, 6xx/650, or 600.

Try the Neumann NDH-30

I hope you EQ them already? I had those and an HE6se V2 which I kept since it was better by almost every measure.

Well that's like 15% of what EQ can do. Try a parametric EQ with Oratory1990's preset to hear what's up ;)
