Best alternative headphones to HD600?
Hello! I have a pair of HD600 that I find uncomfortable to wear. Initially, the discomfort was around my ears and top of my head. To solve that, I bought Brainwavz HM5 Velor Memory Foam earpads, which solved ear discomfort (pads are still small so a bit of a hassle trying to adjust). I replaced...- bladefd

Replacing Broken Headband for DT880
Hello there, I have an old style Beyerdynamic DT880. The headband at the top broke off (the cloth portion only that you see in image below). The headband came right off along with one of the connectors linking it to the frame of the headphone. Without the headband, the headphone simply...- bladefd

New amp or DAC or soundcard?
I posted a thread a couple days ago asking for amp recommendations for around $100, but it got me thinking afterwards. Would I be better off actually looking for an amp (possibly mini3 or something around there) or getting a DAC or perhaps even upgrading my soundcard? Now I am not sure if I...- bladefd

Choices.. Choices..
Hey, I was looking for a headphone for between 25-100 and was wondering what is the best bang for the buck. I posted on these forums over 2 years ago, and a couple people convinced me to get a Denon D1000 back then. I bought a D-1000 back then for about $125 off ebay, but the right side of it...- bladefd

HD555 vs. ES7 vs. RP21.. decisions decisions
After much research, I am down to HD555, ES7 and RP21. Of the 3, RP21 costs the most. HD555 would be refurbished but I got no problem with that. ES7 would be in my budget after using google checkout. All would be within my budget(which is $100) but HD555 would be the cheapest of the 3. This...- bladefd

Recommendations for $50-100 range
Hey, I was looking for a headphone for around 50-100 and was wondering what is best to get. After some thought, I decided that I definitely don't want to spend above $100.
