Started new thread from "Incoming......" now that folks are getting hands-on... I guess I've had my SE100 for just over 3 weeks. I've spent many, many hours listening, and my overwhelming impression is more details and clarity. I'm not greatly gifted with the use of superfluous superlatives -...

So sorry if this is a repost, I looked for it and couldn't find it.   It's basically someone's thesis the the subject.  Easy to read, and fascinating.   Since I can't attach it, here's the link.   https://aaltodoc.aalto.fi/bitstream/handle/123456789/1128/urn012834.pdf?sequence=1  ...

Recently, I found a rather advanced EQ plug-in for Winamp called Nevi.  The website it points to is long gone, but the software remains.  Just to play around, I downloaded some frequency charts for my ear ware.   I found that you could achieve a reasonable approximation of correction to the...

Well now.  Don't I feel like a putz?  <sigh> I was the unwitting victim of a unscrupulous seller selling counterfeit goods. As for me, I was sitting in a vacuum, not sensing anything around me, especially blind to what could possibly be fraud, with a CAPITAL "F". I'm not an idiot, I DO...

Hey Folks - As a lurker for a bit, I finally sprang for a 10' Cardas Headphone Cable for Sennheiser Headphones. I'm trying real hard to hear the improvements, as I've really never had a "golden ear". I sense hearing things I've never noticed before, not never heard, but never noticed before...

I just discovered this forum a couple of days ago while investigating investing in a set of AKG-701's. I had no idea that headphone listening could be so...so esoteric. It's amazing to see all the products and ideas for headphone listening. I myself do mostly digital-audio editing, mastering...
