    Sony MDR-Z7M2 Headphone Thread

    Still totally obsessed with my Z7M2's. Wondering if the kimber cables are worth it with my schit stack.

    Sony MDR-Z7M2 Headphone Thread

    Wow, ok, well, they're here :D Very comfortable, driven very well by a simple Schiit stack, hugely different sound signature than my HD700's, way more bass but still friendly to female vocalists (bulk of my listening). Tonight I'm going to game with them while my fiance streams on Twitch in...

    Sony MDR-Z7M2 Headphone Thread

    I'm excited, mine are to be delivered Friday. I'm in need of a closed set of cans for home (ATH-A950's are my work set) and wanted to find something to complement my HD700's.

    Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread

    Haven't found anyone else mention this, but the right side logo plastic piece at the end of the headband on my HD 700's is loose, not like, falling off loose, but has some play to it, I was wondering if anyone else had this issue. Maybe a picture would help but I'm all hopped up on cold meds...

    With "these" attributes, how does Grado have a fanbase ?

    I thought it was all hype too, but then I finally broke down and bought a pair of SR-80i's and just loved them. It's a whole new sound and it really suits a lot of my music, rock especially, which is what Grado is known for. I was also afraid of it being uncomfortable, but have come to find...

    Tell us how your Audio-gd Compass is Being Used!

    My MacBook Pro and iTunes filled with Apple Lossless rips of all my music feeding the Compass via Optical to my ATH-A950LTD's, Grado SR-80i's, or a splitter between the A950's and A900's when my girlfriend listens with me! I love this thing, it's really allowed me to try new things with my...
