I’m thinking about getting them because I have an Apple ecosystem at the house. Most of my headphone listening (sadly) is now with some kind of video. On the iPad or AppleTV. My question. If anyone has any experience with eBay sellers that specifically sell the refurbished headphones...

looking to get my kids some headphones. They need to be able to take a beating, with sound quality being secondary. Especially the cable, they seem to always break the connection. I don’t want wireless headphones, don’t want to deal with charging them. Yes, I know. Blasphemy.

I like the Sony sound. I currently have the SA5000. Bought them new. I've been out of the headphone scene for some time. Concentrating on blue tooth gear for simplicity. Just looking for the new production flagship Sony headphones. The key is if they are available in the USA. Full warranty...

I'm looking to remove the plastic ear cups and the matching circular piece that houses the adjustment arm.  Any reference on how to safely remove it?  The ear cups should be pretty easy (I'm going to recable them at the same time) but the adjustment arm piece doesn't look straightforward.  ...

Curious if anyone has done it and if you like it? And how did you do it? I have one on my Fostek and it is very nice. Currently I have a padded headband on my hifiman and am looking into this option.

I am going to change out the ear cups in my Hifiman headphones and I think this will be a great time to completely eliminate the mini coaxial connection that is there now.       Mainly because I really really don't like them and I am having issues with them.   I can directly connect the...

I require the mophie battery case. It's pretty deep for a right angle.

Nah. It's for the same goal. I saw a couple of pictures and they all have a 90 degree jack. Just will not fit in an iphone in a case.

Looking for a durable pair of iems with a less tangly cord. Sound quality has to be good but not necessarily great. Currently I am using some monoprice iems. They sound good and are really cheap (sub $5). However they are kinda microphonic and super tangly wires. Too early to tell about...

Quote:   exactly what i was looking for.   thank you.  

Quote: Excellent.  Thanks.  Is there a date database?  I have the dates.  Or, what are the dates of the latest revision?  Specifically regarding the internal mods, the alpha pads are easy to buy and put on.

Hopefully not too off topic.  Besides emailing Dan, which I have done on another question, but don't want to be a pest.   How can you tell which version I have?  I bought one pair directly from him and they are 3.2, but I also purchased a used pair to just have.  How can I positively tell...

Looking for a bulk cable with three wires (for TRS, right, left, ground) in it with a max diameter of 4.5mm (preferably 4mm).     I'm trying to use this Neutrik plug.  

It's fine. I'm going to make a custom cable. Ill need to grind down the neutrik right angle connector. Should not be difficult. I'm only doing it for aesthetics and cable length. I also like to do that. I'm at the phase of looking for a triple core wire with outside jacket of 4-4.5 mm. Don't...

I asked a similar question a couple of weeks ago. Specifically I was going to make a custom. No real solutions. However, the V Moda cable was recommended.

I believe replacement cables can fix broken cables and bad solder joints. I know they can fix bad aesthetics and length discrepancies. I do not believe they will change tonality. Put a different way, a cable should not alter a headphones sound. They are there as a connection. If you are...

There are two distinct ways of thinking. One group swears there are sonic improvements, the other completely discounts that. I believe with modern manufacturing you will not be able to discern and sonic changes in regard to cabling. I recable occasionally. I do it to fix a connection issue...

Thanks!

Quote:   Didn't find it, but I am not done looking at your profile.  On a side note, what did you do with the hold in the left ear phone?

That is sweet.  Totally would do that.  What connectors did you use in the headphones?   oh, and I want a different length cable for my specific situation (don't want to use an extension).

Sorry about that.  Don't like the Vmoda cable either.  Like I said, its only for aesthetics.  Yes, I know I'm being kinda shallow.   Want something with more heft and industrial look to it.  I have some Canare Quad at home and love the feel (sounds good too).  I'm thinking that maybe I'll...

I'd like to replace the stock cable on my Fostex T50RP.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with them, and I do not think I'll "gain" any sonic improvements.  My desire to replace them is purely aesthetics.     I don't like the look of the thin cable nor the 1/4 inch connector.     Is...

I would buy the 550x of it was 289. The older 550 is 289. Unless I'm mistaken.

Been pretty pleased with the nuForce HDP dac/amp combination. I do everything with this unit. Music, gaming and movies. Using optical, found USB was hit or miss with certain games. Using Beyer 770&880s. Also using Sony 5ks. I'm not that experienced with dac/amp combos and was wondering what...

Quote: Thanks.  Looks like a dead project from my end.  Way too much for me.   I was wanting to have a device like this.  I currently have it and it is not working quite well.  Looks like I'll keep looking.  Its for a home theater solution, for convenience.  Thanks
