So nice you bought it twice?
Needed new pads for Philips Fidelio x2 hd. Prime sale ….. £68.30 for a new headphone. So, now I have 2 of them!- iancraig10

Rode NTH-100 - Mini Review
At first, I loved the cable because it’s soft rubber and very flexible.doesn’t get easily tangled. It is microphonic, so no dancing around while listening! To be honest, it’s not a problem for me because I don’t walk around with them on. I am going to get the shorter cable though, because I do...- iancraig10

Rode NTH-100 - Mini Review
To be honest, I’m not certain that Solderdude’s graph shows exactly how the treble sounds on the head. Seeing this got me quickly switching between the two to compare directly what is going on….. First of all, the Senn hd650 is a better headphone so I’m not putting it down. The Rode seems a...- iancraig10

New Beyerdynamic Pro X line: DT 700 Pro X and DT 900 Pro X
Surprising that the price in UK isn’t as high as I expected; especially after Brexit so taxes are added.- iancraig10

wanted: closed headphone or iem as close to hd650 as possible
I find the 1More Quad iem similar in sound.- iancraig10

Official M3 firmware download and discussion thread - FW1.9--new UI theme, various UI improvements
Strange that this wasn’t publicised more. I was completely unaware of it. The black really does help with visibility too.- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
Could it perhaps be a ‘leak’ where the plug goes in? This happens with the Beyer DT250. Gives a slight imbalance between the two sides. When Solderdude reassembled, maybe he shifted something without realising.- iancraig10

Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 Discussion Thread
Funny thing is that I have found it better than I first thought as well. I have tried numerous other headphones that are similar, but end up returning to the MSR7. Tried Senn Momentum on and over ear, Sony MSR1, Vmoda M100, Takstar Pro82 and for me, the MSR7 is an improvement.- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
The driver might produce slightly more bass distortion at high volume which might be heard as extra warmth. That’s probably quite likely with the Takstar drivers. Try lower volume with bass boost perhaps?- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
As I said earlier, it could be something like this .... Someone earlier asked what volume BenF was measuring at though and it makes no difference. I prefer around 3 or so dB higher than ‘flat’ in the bass too but that might be because I keep the volume down.- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
Microphones hear no difference in volumes. FR remains constant. If you measure at 74 and then at or, the graph should be the same to something is wrong. The resulting graph graph is then altered with a compensation curve in order to mimic our hearing in the way that the graph looks...- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
The way that it works is our hearing works differently to measurements. FR of the headphone remains constant at all volumes, but our hearing doesn’t. ; ) Funnily enough, I find the mids of the Pro 82 slightly lower than my AT MSR7 and in order to get a better feeling of ‘presence’ you may be...- iancraig10

Takstar Pro 82/GM200 Review, impressions and discussion thread
Loud always ‘sounds’ better because of the way our hearing works. The bass in particular drops away at lower volumes but raising the volume can also raise distortion and basically, it’s really not good for your hearing. I have ‘trained’ myself to listen at low volumes and have adjusted to it...- iancraig10
