Hi,
I recently bought a humble step up earphones (Sennhieser c300S) but was met with a lot of siblance and harshness, until i connected to them to a different laptop
I was using a company provided macbook pro, so i assumed the DAC would be great and suspected the earphones.
Connecting them to a an ASUS ROG, made the harshness go away. When i tried to find the DAC in the Asus i found some news articles that claimed it had an ESS Sabre, though i do not know which version it included. I couldnt find the DAC details of the macbook
Ia'm not sure what is causing the difference, if its really the DAC or something else - any help / sources would be appreciated to help maximize the quality of the music i seem to get from my earphones.
Anyone else pursuing the quality of earphone connected to laptops ?
Thanks
Arun
