Ever tried bending a guitar over 'yer head?
OK, I just got some Shure SRH1840's and plugged them into my Cambridge Audio CXA61 and they sounded like junk (streaming Tidal Hi Fi from the desktop app on a M1 Mac Air to the CXA's USB 'in' and using Tidal's 'exclusive' mode).
They sounded really bad and I couldn't believe that these phones should sound so muddy. So I downloaded the Tidal app to my 2019 Mac Mini and plugged the phones into my M Audio Air 192/14 audio interface... the 1840's sound absoulutely fabulous.
I'm going to have to re-evaluate what is going on in the living room. Does the CXA61 have a bad headphone amp?
