I'm looking for an upgrade from the DT990 premium, I mostly play games and watch anime/movies on my computer and have a Musiland monitor 03 US DAC and a Fiio E09k amp. I've been looking at the T70, and to a lesser extent at the DT880, since I owned the T1 at one point and loved it (!) but had to...

I'm stuck making a decision between a brand new DT880 premium 250 ohm (new in box) and an "excellent condition" used T70 with the cable re-terminated with cardas 1/4 inch plug.   The price gap only is about $80, with the T70 being more expensive.   I was just wondering about opinions on...

Ultrasone says that the HFI2400's driver is made of gold-plated mylar, but mylar itself is considered a low quality material for drivers, compared to, say, titanium or neodymium. Does this mean that the drivers are low quality?

Basically the title, I recently got a brand new beyer T1 and have been hearing that it's supposed to include a warranty card.

I just got my new musiland monitor 03, installed the drivers from the CD, plugged in the device, everything seemed to be working fine.   That is, until I listened to it!   It sound like.... Your favorite music, put through a blender (not like "oh this is bad sound quality" sort of...

Not sure if this is a driver issue or if I just got a bad unit - the sound from the headphone outs on the front sounds garbled, mangled beyond any recognition.     Anyone know a remedy?     EDIT - Fixed. To anyone else who encounters this problem, get the latest drivers off the...

Is there anything like that that can be had for under 200 dollars?   Am looking at a musiland monitor 03, but wondering if there are better options out there.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/32bit-384KHz-2012-Musiland-Monitor-01-USD-USB-sound-card-ASIO-RCA-BNC-OPTICAL-/320887514002   I need to know what kind of connections those are for the USB in and RCA out, since I want to buy some better cables than the ones included.

I hear lots of talk about loudness, some users saying that they need massive amounts of power to achieve adequate listening levels, while others(like me) are typically happy with a low-to-moderate (I think) sound level.   I ordered a cheap SPL meter so I could figure out how loud I listen to...

I'm looking for a good DAC to be paired with the T1 I have on the way. The e17 is great and all but I feel the T1 is deserving of a bit better.   The DAC should be - under 200 (new or used) -Compatible with usb input and 3.5mm output (will use a 3.5mm to RCA cable to hook to the E09k...

These look... really, really nice.   Can't wait to read some reviews!     Priced at 1049 dollars MSRP, it's not a toss-em' around can, and most of us hope it's got a price/performance ratio not at all similar to the edition 10.  ...

I could get either the HD800 for 1100 (used, very good) or a Beyerdynamic T1 for 950 (new, extra padded headband from beyer). I heard that the HD800 is picky when it comes to amps. Does this make a real, make-or-break difference, or is it mostly just slight refinements/placebo effect (like...

"mod" in quotations because I am hesitant to call it that.   I've seen one too many friends buy beats or similar headphones with cables designed to go from earcup to source 3 feet from head over good cans like beyers and senns simply because they think that a 10 foot cable is an...

There's a store (reputable dealer) selling some senn hd800s pretty cheap, but it's a "display model".   Any significant reason not to buy display models?

Obviously, since the amp is rated to 600 ohms there won't be a problem with volume (It powers my beyer dt990 250 ohms to hurt-ears levels at less than half volume with the gain switch on and the gain set to 12 db on the e17)   I am aware that the Hd800s "deserve" a better amp/dac combo, but...

According to Fiio, the E09k has a frequency response of 20-20k hz. If my headphones have a bigger range than that, will using this amp cut the rest out?

 I'm not sure of the name of this port. I always buy better cables than the ones included, usually at bargain prices from monoprice, but I'm not sure what sort of male (or female if that center part counts as male) connection this is.   Any help would be appreciated!

I have a laptop with foobar and some nice DSP configs and a Fiio E17 with upgraded cable as my source.   I currently own a pair of Ultrasone PRO 750s and enjoy them, but I have heard that the HFI models have smaller cups (do not completely encircle the ear)   I listen to mostly...

I've been experimenting with the four different sets of eartips that come with these little wonders. I'm just wondering if there is a consensus as to which are best.   I'm having a hard time getting the small tri-flanges in deep enough, but I am new to canalphones so maybe it just takes practice

Currently burning in my new etymotic MC5s with my fiio E7 set at 25/60 volume. Only burned in full-size cirumaurals before so I was wondering if it was different for canalphones (these have moving coils, not balanced armatures)

Soundstage is extremely important to me, which is why I switched to exclusively circumaural headphones. However, I am moving around and in noisy areas alot which restricts me to using closed-back headphones.   So I'm looking for sub-$300 headphones with a closed back and a massive...

Topic title, I'm getting conflicting information about these. Preferably from someone who actually owns the headphones.

I am considering getting an AKG K702 after having to send my DT990 premiums back to the seller because of a defective driver. I heard these are more difficult to drive than the DT990s.   I'm not looking to push them to the absolute max, and I don't need extreme volume. In fact, the dt990 250...

Alright, so I just got my Beyerdynamic DT990s in the mail. They are the 250 ohm variant, so that is most likely the problem as my headphone amp has not arrived yet. Cranked up to almost max volume, my laptop can get a decent volume out of these, but the bass is only full in the left earcup. It...

Pretty much the topic title. I was wondering if they have a removable/replacable cable.
