    NEWS: Apple acquires Beats for $3 Billion (Update: Full interview on recode.net)

    You know, I have been thinking about this too and I agree on two of your points but I think they are doing it for the style. I feel like apple may be worried they will lose their image the longer they go without Steve at the helm. I feel like if they start including really fancy looking earbuds...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    That was my experience at first too. I put them on a Fiio E17 DAC and eqd the trable down a touch which helped. The real thing for me though was that after breaking them in with man many hours or playtime they got less harsh and more bassy. I would give them a thorough break in before deciding...

    Question about E09K/E17 Combo and Monitors

    Hey Everyone, I got an E09K for Christmas to plug my E17 Dac into. I am using the E17 as my sound card and then the Eo9K to dock the E17. For those not familiar this is the back of the E09K. I want to connect my MAudio AV40 Monitors to the E09K so I can listen to them sometimes in stead of my...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I used Duct tape. I believe if you use the felt pads like Kees mod it would be similar but the thickness of the felt would definitely dampen it a bit more.

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I just opened mine up and added in that tape. I hear an immediate improvement. I am probably going to experiment more with kees mod when i get more time but these headphones seem to take well to tinkering on first glance over this thread :p Good god the bass THE BASS

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I have a Fiio E17 directly driving my pro 900's without the E9/E09 amp. I can't weigh in on the difference because I don't have the E09/E9 but I can say that I like the nice warm sound the E17 gives me and it has plenty of power for these particular headphones. The Pro 900's really don't require...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    yeah, I have them hooked to my Fiio E17 and it pairs nicely. When buddies hear how much my setup is worth (because lets be honest the Pro 900's are pricey) they think I am crazy. Then I let them listen to dubstep or DnB, EDM and they just kind of go .......oh. These are probably one of your best...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I was really worried about my 900's at first too as they were brutally shrill on the high end. After using them now for probably hundreds of hours they have just gotten better and better. They sound fantastic now. I never really believed much in burn in time but I really think these got way...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    I'm wondering about this currently :p When I got them they had less than 20 hours play time and I got headaches in minutes from how bright they were. I was super impressed with the bass but it was a little nutty and boomy. I have probably 150 hours on them now maybe more and they just keep...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    Hey everyone. I just figured I would pop in and say hello since I just purchased a set of Pro 900's. I picked them up used from DDCPITT, a user here on the forums. I updated from a pair of Dre beats studios I had for 2 years. I have the Ultrasone Pro 900's connected through a Fiio E17. This is...

    Choice. Time for 'real' set of cans. Please educate me. comments on my list

    Basically the DT 880 and the Grado SR80i are very good and very popular on here. Depends on the type of sound you want and how much you want to spend. I personally don't have either but I would say decide which one is the sound signature you want and if it is in the right price range for you.

    Hey everyone, thanks for all the suggestions. One issue I have is finding new stuff I like so this really helps ! I would reccomend if you like Drum and bass/ Dubstep there is a podcast called 'Evoque Bassbeat' and it is a monthly mix that it put out. I have found them to be awesome sets. The...

    Possibly saying goodbye to an old friend and saying hello to a new one ?

    Fantastic thanks ! I did actually read the couple other threads about them but I figured I would post something and maybe get some new users of them and stuff. Think I might pick up a pair tomorrow. I play a lot of golf by myself and I listen to music while I walk the course. It would be amazing...

    Possibly saying goodbye to an old friend and saying hello to a new one ?

    Hey Everyone, thought I would start off my post with a story. I have a pair of Klipsch S4i's that I absolutely love ! I wear them every single day and are great for 60 bucks. That said, today I ran a 10 Km (6 mile) race with my wife. Part way through there was an open fire hydrant for fun to...

    Why oh why did I have to find this place?

    When I get my Ultrasone Pro 900s either today or nearly next week I am going to Kees mod them. Mods are huge on here and they seem super easy and extremely functional from what I have read.

    Why oh why did I have to find this place?

    Welcome to the forums ! It sounds like you are in the same boat as many of us. There are a lot of us on here with kids as well and you will find there are people who spend more money every month than you can in a year but there are also many of us who are big on best bang for the buck. You...

    Hey Everyone,    I just joined earlier in the week and wanted to say hi. I'm a young family man from Canada. Though I am new to Head -fi forums and real head fi equipment I would still consider myself an audiophile on a budget.    Over the years my headphones have included    Sony...

    DAC input for Fiio E17 SPDIF vs USB input?

    Hey, I am pretty new here but I have purchased an E17 and as such have been doing a lot of reading. The main difference is that if you go through the USB input you will get  (max): 24bit / 96kHz quality where as if you are running SPDIF and assuming your audio out put is capable you can...
