I did remove the ear pad and tried to eye out for any kind of anomalies, but everything looks OK to me. Of-course there could be something deeper in the unit but I'm not brave enough to remove the mesh covering the driver let alone fiddle with the driver itself. Glad you like the soundtrack, it...

Don't think that the cause is a loose pad, I reattached the pad twice and the rattling remains. Actually I just noticed that If i gently shake the headphone I can hear quiet noise coming (like a loose part of some small object in) from the right cup. Seems like it is time for RMA...

Can anyone else hear audible rattle from their Stellia when listening to the track "2049" from Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack? The low frequencies at the very start of the song (and some other LF parts throughout the song aswell) produce rattle on the right cup of my Stellia. Wondering if I...

Little update: Went to a local audio store to try out some gear, the chain was Tidal -> Roon -> HDV 820 (take that as you may) Few quick thoughts: Klipsch hp-3: Yikes.... NOT FOR ME :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Focal elear: sounds muddy and uncontrolled, something definitely missing here...

@gimmeheadroom Thanks for the link, I'd better eye through it! @FlowLikeWater I would agree with your comment about the music!! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: since we have similar taste PM me if you got any recommendations, always looking for new bands.

@gimmeheadroom Thanks for the reply, upgrading the amp is possible here. Long time ago I read that Audezes like a lot of power, just like you said. Now I wonder how much power is enough, Corda Classic already puts almost 900mW into 110ohms while Audeze recommends 250mW or more. Also, like you...

What streaming service do you recommend? I was a long time subscriber to Tidal until I did a comparison between Spotify, Tidal and CD and found that to me they all sound identical. About amps, are there any non "big money" amps that outperform Meier?

Hey, thank you for the suggestions, seems like I need to add AEON 2 to the list. About LCD-3f; I agree it is great hp, the best I've heard and the best headphone currently in my possession (haven't heard the "big BIG boys" utopia, stellia, lcd-4, he1000se, verite etc.). It does everything I...

Hey, Any suggestions which hps would do well with these genres. Currently using LCD-3f and while excellent, I feel it lacks little speed and some impact. Also got HD800S which is lacking in terms of impact and sounds somewhat dry on rock & metal songs. What I've been eyeing for so far: elear...

1. LCD3f > 2. HD800S >> 3. AH-D7000 > 4. W3000ANV > 5. B&O H6 >> 5. WH1000XM3 >> 6. HFI-780

Thanks for your input, I wonder if the carbon fiber one differs from the suspension band in any way besides the looks and price. Has anyone tried both?

Hello, Has anyone here compared the different head bands available for the LCD series? I'm interested in the differences between the Lohb strap, Audezes' suspension headband and the CF headband from Audeze (are there any other straps/bands?). Which is the most comfortable in your opinion? How...

I Don't know if you gonna get the clarity you want from NAD. From what I've read it seems to be more 'smooth' hp.  I think H6 would give you the clarity you want and it DOES HAVE BASS. This is from someone who comes from D7000 and LCD-3. It doesn't have over emphasized bass like D7000. The bass...

I also think they would fit your needs pretty well. I think it does everything you described in your first post (Considering to buy them myself too ).    In case you decide to go for the H6, here is few things to keep in mind:   -People say it sounds harsh straight out of the package, but...

T1 is porbably "more save" choise when buying blindly. You might also want to consider something like T90 + matching amp & dac if you think that your gear is not up to T1. Ofcourse you could also go T1 and matching gear if your budget allows that. However T90 is supposed to be close to T1 sound...

Consider the music you listen to, your source & amp before buying anything. HD800 seems to be regarded as the better headphone from these two, but some people like the T1 more. Also with a lesser source you are not going to get anything from HD800 that you wouldn't get from T1. If anything HD800...

To name few options:   -Beoplay h6 -Oppo pm3 -AT msr-7 -Momentum 2 -MDR-1A   From these I like the H6 most. However I haven't heard PM3, but from what I have read it is supposedly little better than the others. I thought 1A and Momentum 2 were kinda lacklusters, but people seem to like...

From the ones you have listed AH-D2000 sounds the best imo. However it is discontinued and it has a long cable (3 meters?). From your list the Sennheiser Momentums probably fits the best for the job.   Some alternatives that you could consider:       -V-moda M100     - Nad Viso HP50     -...

Euphonic: W3000ANV  

HE-560 for sure if money isn't a factor. Having heard both the HE-500 (which I didin't like at all) and the HE-560, I can say that the latter is a lot better. More comfortable, better bass, much better midrange, better stage... I remember playing few uplifting trance tracks while demoing HE-560...

Momentum probably is kind of a sidegrade (while still being a small upgrade) when compared to COP. With momentum you get little brighter and slightly more neutral sound while still being warm signature. Momentum is also more compact but probably less comfortable for some (smaller earcup size but...

For me these headphones have a nice fit. Outer parts of my pinna touches the pad ever so slightly, but it doesn't feel uncomfortable at all. I actually think that they are somewhat more comfortable than my Denon d7000. I'd say they definitely remind me more of a over ear headphone than on ear...

Easy.   1. W3000ANV 2. AH-D7000 3. Ultrasone HFI-780
