    Ultrasone Fan Club! (Roll Call)

    Does anyone have a source for replacement headband pads (the pad on the part that goes over the top of the head)?

    ES-R10 closed back dynamic headphone Sony R10 Replica Discussion/Impressions

    As a long-time fan of the Sony R10's, my audition of the ES-R10 at CanJam earlier this year was disappointing. I just didn't hear the magic of the original R10's (from memory). I don't know how well run-in the sample I heard was, but given it was a vendor's table, I presume it had some head-time...

    Spirit Torino Valkyria

    Do your cables incorporate any resistance to step down the power from the speaker taps? If so, what value resistor?

    Ultrasone Fan Club! (Roll Call)

    Hey Patrick - those Ed11's, with bio-cellulose drivers & a unique housing, seem to be completely different than any of the prior Proline/Pro/Edition lines: Never had an opportunity to see or hear them. Glad you are enjoying.

    Introducing the LCD-i3

    All this iPhone vs. Android cable discussion is amusing. Instead, I find it more strange that a company double-down on the need for DSP equalization on its headphones at all, thus tying it to a phone or PC app for best response. This leaves those of us just wanting to use the analog-out of a...

    If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...

    Well, the left driver of my ~15 y/o ER4S's is now substantially reduced in volume. Sadly, replacing filters (the usual suspect) has no effect. Also checked all links in the audio chain & the issue follows the driver all the way. Frankly, I suspect the root cause are the new plastic tubed filters...

    Monolith M300 In Ear Planar Earphones

    Thanks to the recommendations in this thread, I received the Audeze "groove kit" yesterday. The Audeze iSine hooks are thinner & more flexible than the Monoprice stock hooks, but don't break when you flex them to fit over your ear. They don't pinch either. They've taken the M300 to "wearable for...

    Fender IEM (Aurisonics) Impressions, Reviews & Discussions Thread

    Surprised at the recent price cuts on the FXA7. Personally, I'm waiting for a drop on the FXA9, as (based on limited reviews) they seem to have a signature more to my taste.

    Official New York Spring Meet - June 10, 2017 - impressions

    So glad I made the trek down from CT for another one of Tom's (bozebutton) fantastic meets. He is probably the most selfless Head-Fier I know, working tirelessly to keep the NY headphone scene at the high level that it has always been. Vendor participation was great, with representation by many...
