Tried a 2nd adapter still the same lol... i'll keep trying different things though...

I can't really use the DAC1 headphone out as the gain is too high and there are large channel imbalances at the start of the volume pot. I'm using a good solid silver DIY interconnect (again another item that should make it brighter). I'm really quite at a loss as to why its sounds soo over the top with bass. I 've been trying a pair of k702s and they sound absolutely wonderful. My JH13s on the other hand are muddy is comparison The treble is recessed and mids are just veiled... my iphone does a better job at rendering the mids. I'm letting it burn in... but i highly doubt it will change very much

Hi there, I've just received a GS-1 from the latest shipment. I too am using the GS-1 with my JH13s and paired with my benchmark dac1(supposed bright dac) i'm finding sound to be overly bassy and lacking mid and high end definition. This is compared to what i'm use to out of my iphone 3g. The bass almost too strong and a tad bloated and it intrudes into the mids, making them slightly veiled... If you have an iphone could you chime on if it sounds tonally different when compared to your home setup ? I've waited 6 months for it to finally arrive and now i'm sorely disappointed :S While the sound of my iphone doesn't have a large soundstage or micro detail as my home setup... it definitely has a tonally more balanced sound and as of now i prefer the sound from my iphone 3g.
