Quote: Same here, only 5 points, no mention of word 'Kankregelaar'. My pair is also around 2 years old.

Quote: What are you talking about ? Read the first post: with line out/ coaxial digital out.

Quote: I'm almost 100% that it is metal on my E11. Feels colder and I even tried it with my teeth and it doesn't feel like plastic at all.  

Got my E11 few days ago from ebay.co.uk seller nocando01 and volume knob is metal. Where did you see plastic ones ?

With E11 I can finally use my HD25's as my portable headphones together with Clip+. Clip+ doesn't have nearly enough power for HD25 (IMO). And I was never really satisfied with E7 as a portable amplifier: not enough power to drive HD25 in those "bring-it-on" moments (again, IMO) and buttons for...

Just in case somebody missed it: Jude made a video review of DT1350 vs. HD25-1 II. You can find it here: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/550581/head-fi-tv-episode-004-sennheiser-hd-25-1-ii-and-beyerdynamic-dt-1350

My wishes: 1. additional dummy card slot (I know it is sdxc compatible but sometimes it is more convenient to have multiple small cards instead of one big card) 2. decent quality protection case (with 2 or 3 micro sd card slots). 3. (weatherproof) wired remote control (iRiver iHM1x0...

See http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/433318/ for some info, if you haven't already.

No problems on Ubuntu 10.10 Gnome, also no problems on Ubuntu 10.04 server. I don't know about KDE but if it uses ALSA you could try sudo alsamixer in terminal and check if any outputs are muted ? I had problems with HDMI audio output on my 10.04 and solved them by unmuting SPDIF outputs using...

The only difference should be the accessories. See here: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/256352/hd25-1-ii-any-different-to-hd25-1#post_3237935

Quote:   If you're mad like me then you should probably test the combination. I have DT880/250, sometimes I like it very loud and I think E7/E9 (at high gain) might lack some power to run those to VERY high volume. And when listening to something like 50 Cent's Candy Shop I think what I...

Hm, you posted in the Portable headphones forum. Do you need portable headphones ? If you do, then you should take another good look at the size of DT150 - they're far from being portable. Also I seriously doubt you'll be satisfied runing them unamped.

The cost of accessories should be taken into account very seriously when buying used stuff. Here's my story: I wanted to buy used HD650. I ended buying HD600 because I could not find reasonably priced HD650 at that time. Paid 180 EUR incl. shipping for HD600 (HD600 alone was 170 EUR). When they...

As Fiio E9 owner I have a comment regarding X3/E9 docking. While I like the idea, I would love it if Fiio would provide a cable connection option, that is X3 -> cable -> E9 dock. Cable length should be at least 1.5m (approx. 60 inches).
