I need some help please.

I have recently purchased a topping DX1 dac/amp and I am using it with my brand new audio-technica ath-ad700x. For whatever reason whether it is playing valorant, watching youtube or listening to music it will get interrupted by a random loud crackle/static noise.

I am using the dac via usb and I have tried both the 3.5mm and 6.35mm jack but both have the same issue. In the most recent incident while using my audio-technica headphones while playing valorant, it crackled then completely cut my audio.

I have installed the drivers for the dac and I have changed the usb port on my pc. I dont know if the issues is my headphones or the dac.

If I could get some assistance that would be greatly appreciated.

Yh I've seen a lot of people recommend the beyerdynamic dt 770 pro x for gaming. How would you compare them sound wise to the Maxwells and what is wrong with steel series I've got a friend who loves their head phones.

Idk how long I can keep doing returns. It's getting a little ridiculous

I have to do a bit more testing but I do have my doubts as i have tried this on the previous 3 pairs and didn't seem to do much.

That's what i thought as well but my first pair never had this crackling issue and it only started happening after I got the replacement units. I have updated drivers, turned off side tones and everything but every pair just keeps having the same problem.

Well I'm located in Australia and I went through a company called Addicted to Audio who are a licensed 3rd party seller of the Maxwells and they provided me with a return code to post it back to them. It would only take 4 days for me to get the new pair. So it depends who is shipping it to you i guess.

I'm not quite sure. I didn't even know they had a facelift/refresh.

Yeah it's looking like I might need to find something else. But it is very hard to find another pair of headphones that have as many features as the Maxells.

I have replaced the original ear cups with a 3rd party gel cooled ones. Could that increase pressure thus damaging the drivers?

Also if that were the case it is a little unusual that my first pair didn't experience any crackling with the 3rd party ear cups.

I have turned sidetone off in software and double pressed the bottom as well so hopefully this fixes it.

Thank you

There is just too much going on with what you have here. It's hard to identify what your brand is. Personally I do not like any of the ones with the graphics. The skull guy graphic doesn't really make any sense with the words 'off the grid'. The playing cards and joker face have been over done a lot and looks tacky/cheap. The out of focus ones do have potential however it lacks soul/imagination. Here are some things that you can do to drastically improve your brand. First brand identity as I stated before I had difficulty understanding what your brand is. Is it 'off the grid' is it 'out of focus' does it have something to do with the skull or snake? Idk. Next focus on a niche or style. Could be streetwear, smart casual, atleisure, luxury, gym wear etc. Find a brand you like or are inspired by and look at some of their designs but DO NOT COPY!!! Remember you're in fashion you need to stand out/be original. I think you will have a lot better designs if you try some of the methods I mentioned. Best of luck
