    Has anyone change the driver element of Beyer haedphones?

    I have another pair of Beyerdynamic DT531 headphones where the right element sounds to be broken. It occasionally plays music, but most of the time it rattles and makes strange noice. I have checked the cable, it is not broken. I even verified this with another wiring to be sure that it is the...

    Best durable option/choice - cord issue?

    My teenage kid's (14 & 12) are cutting off the cords of headphones they are using. The cord of my DT531 was the first victim. Since then I did not allow them to use my headphones. They manage to break off the cords from some other bulk headphones (came with a player or a mobile phone)...

    I received my new DT 880's just a few days ago from Meier. They do sound good now. However my first trial was not that successfull. At first the sound was distrorted and 'scratching'. I was afraid the cans were broken somehow. As I tried to find a solution I plugged and unplugged them from...

    Etymotic ER-4P cable broken

    I bought last September one pair of ER-4S to myself and one pair of ER-4P to my friend. My friend told me yesterday that the right earplug does not work properly any more. He said that rising the wire close to the earplug will bring the sound back, but it will disappear immediately once the wire...

    Beyer DT531 available?

    Every now and then there is some discussion about these excellent cans. I just found a site that seems to be selling these cans. So if you are interested in these ones maybe you should check this site I have no idea if they really have them in stock or not. Don't blame me, if you can't crab them.

    Nokia 9500 & good phones & mic for music and calls

    I would like to occasionally use my communicator for listening purposes - simply because I have it with me all the time. I just wonder how I could plug my etys and a clip-on microphone to it? Nokias own adaptor AD-15 does not have a microphone input. AD-15 could be used for listening...

    Problem with Corda HA-1 mkI & changing the op's

    I have this Corda HA-1 MkI. Now I think I could try some basic modding with this one. I'm confused. I have read the building instructions (http://headwize.com/projects/showfil...=meier_prj.htm) and the 'Extensive Corda mods' thread (http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/showt...t=corda+opa627)...

    Corda HA-1 mkI & hum / background noise

    I bought my Corda HA-1 from the auction that was arranged by this forum. I'm really pleased with my decision to buy this amp. In the beginning I found this amp to give much better experience with headphones than any previous combination I have tried. Well, I haven't tried so much separate...
