Hi I can find at aliexpress either the original YUIN PK2 (well, that's what the seller claim) at 40$, or a DIY version with a much nicer cable at 20$ (nice torsaded flexible cable). The cost of delivery is included. I hesitate because lot of people complain than the build quality of YUIN PK2...

Hi , My old earbuds for sport died because of broken cables (ksc 75 & pmx 680). That's why I thought it might be a good idea to switch to something wireless . But my old sansa player doesn't support Bluetooth (also it's probably outdated) , and I don't want to run with a smartphone.(Mine is...

hi, the headband of my srh940 has cracked, and I'm looking for something better in built quality , and that keeps some "aspect" of the srh940 sounds.   What I really liked on the srh940, is a bit some "aggresivity" on the  sound, which seems perfect for some fast-paced psytrance (or...

Hi, I didn't believe it , when I saw that the cable of my hd800 cracked in many place with time, and there's  even bad connection problem . I don't know how it happened, and if it's a known flaw of the hd800 cable .... I didn't have such problem previously with other headphone.  Anyways I need...

hi, I know how much people find the beat pro overpriced here. I'd like to know if there are good alternative  you could put "around the neck", and enough built quality / sound quality. I find it convenient, the idea that you could keep the headphones with you everywhere you move (by  keeping...

I  tried before many crossfeed before without much success ( bs2b , foo_dsp_xfeed, tb isone, dolby headphone, I've even done some "custom solution" ...).   What I  wanted , is to play music "on the background" with my headphone, while working  on my pc. The hd800 is one headphone more...

Well, there was the three headphone (beats pro, beats studio, beats solo)  demoed in some virgin (mega ?) store . There was a kind of stand, with a built in player , and it was for me the opportunity to try them for the first time ( in Morocco , there's not too much store of that kind).  ...

I didn’t like much the existing crossfeed solutions (software-based only).  I found they damage transients and when I listen with my hd800 it becomes obvious.  Curiously when I try to perform the crossfeed myself, using some high qual  eq , the result is more convincing. I will explain here how...

hello, I'm really missing my akg k317 ear buds ( broken ) .  I  loved their treble, and wide soundstage.  In the online store I plan to buy, I only found the k318, and that doesn't seem a good replacement  : the k318  look thinner, so I  guess the driver is smaller; also I don't want an apple...

Hello, I have two computer, with one I use the xonar stx, and the other I use the realtek onboad soundcard (each on a separate town). It's a bit frustrating , after being used to the sound of xonar stx to go back to onboard  realtek (I'm shocked each time by the difference). But the xonar...

hi, I  was very happy to find some high end headphones available in my country (Morrocco). And it's not easy to buy stuff online there. But price are disturbing...   So I  visited a store , and here's what I  remind (I  converted price to $, and rounded them) :   senn    hd800  1400...

Found this on amzon, it costs 1$, I thought I would share :       Please notice the "clinically proven" .

I'm using a reverb effect with my srh940, and I found it improves the experience in many areas (so much for a single dsp effect...). It's not that the srh940 are not enjoyable without the reverb, but I  found the sound more neutral & relaxing & with increased soundstage. Every time I tried to...

hi, the ear  pads of my hd595 are a bit dirty, and I  wanted to remove the ear pads to clean them. I  followed some advice there , that you have to pull them "firmly but gently", and all I  managed is to crack them. Now I  want to clean them and sew them. But can't find any manual on...

Hi, I saw an increasing number of shop selling Monster headphones in my country (Morocco). This drive me a bit nuts , because it's usually so hard to find "audiophile" headphones here (usually only cheap sony, jvc etc...), and suddenly you see  lot of Monster headphones with the Gaga and Dre...

Hi, what cheap solution ( around 40$ ) would you suggest for jogging , mp3 player + headphone. I need a headphone + player that stay on place when you run. The headphone must resist to sweat , and the player resist to shock when it falls accidentally on the floor. For the music I would listen...

hi, I've read ton of thread, this was driving mad about what should I  get for my next headphone. So let's talk about first, what I  like/ don't like from my hd595.     * What I  like on my hd595: - Great soundstage. Definitely, not much "sound on your face" feeling. You can relax while...

I was listening to the album Venereology by Merzbow, and was thinking : "This is obvious, this album is perfect for burning". At least you can listen to it , it's less boring than pink noise.

I already own earbuds from AKG (k317) , and love how they sound. I  thought by "extrapolation", that getting a full size heaadphone from AKG, would be cool. I  saw great reviews on the K701, they look nice, and I  can find them near 200 euros, which is in my budget range. However the pain...

hi, on my soundcard xonar stx, there's three amp settings: - normal gain (0db for <64 ohms) - high gain (+12db for 64 to 300 ohms) - extra high gain (+18 db for 300 to 600 ohms) The impedance of my headphone (hd595) is 50 ohm, however I believe the sound is improved when I choose a...

hi I've read ton of review, and I must say I'm fed up with all the nit-picking concerning sound-quality here. It's lacks bass, it's too muddy, it's bla bla bla Ok I cannot pretend I'm an audiophile. It's not possible for me to test iem directly , I do not live where this kind of stuff is...

hi, I lost countless hours reading reviews , and I'm more undecided than before after reading all reviews . Basically I'd like to spend less than 150 euros ,with good sound quality AND something that doesn't break too easily (at least with a normal use). If they can resist to some...

hi, currently I have a Sennheiser hd595, which are my first (and perhaps last ) headphones at that price (160 euros). I was reading everywhere that to get decent sound you must at least spend 100$, and Sennheiser was the most popular brand it seemed. Although I prefer my hd595 over my...
