Quick, smooth transaction. Enjoy!

Dusted off my Sextett (can't recall what version) and RS-1 (button version) for a quick listen. I think the only similarity between them is their (relatively) forward sound presentation. Their tonal color differ significantly, especially in the mids and highs, where the Sextett has more syrupy...

Happy anniversary. Sorry about your wallet.

Selling my beloved pair of Sennheiser HD-600. I have barely been listening to it (life and hobby change). The HD600 has been mostly sitting on the shelf with the occasional use. Selling it so someone can more properly derive joy from it. Comes with a 10ft/3m Oehlbach cable (no stock cable as...

I admit I have been out of this game for too long I can't actually tell if upsampling is good or bad. Also, are you saying the ECD-1 has detail or is lacking?

Lol thanks. That put a big smile on my face. :) So I take it you don't think the D90 is worth trying out (it's relatively expensive for a Topping product).

Thanks. I don't have a ton of experience with DACs but I'm quite aware the ECD-1 is up there. Only reason I want another DAC is to downsize (and not lose any SQ). The ECD-1 takes up space on the table (too wide to fit on the shelves) and prevents me from upgrading my monitor (speakers have no...

Electrocompaniet ECD-1 user here. Looking to replace the ECD-1 with something smaller (and at least as good-sounding, if not, better). Currently using the DAC with my PC (SPDIF via M2Tech hiFace Two), connected to speaker system (Topping PA3 -> Epos M5) and headphone setup (Graham Slee Solo...

Thanks for the list. The E-MU has seemingly revived but a slight nudge on the coaxial cable connected to the card will send the PC into a crash. I will still treat this card as on its way out and look for a replacement (as well as finally moving fully to PCIe card). My DAC unfortunately is an...

Hi all, My EMU 1212M (PCI) has finally died after 12 years of service. I am in dire need of a replacement. The EMU was setup in this manner: PC -> EMU -> Electrocompaniet DAC (via BJ Coaxial cable) -> (Sound systems via analog input). I'm looking to spend up to AUD$150 (less is better) to...

I decided to buy the comfies (to quarter mod) and the bowls (to tape mod). The flats were great but, to be honest, I never really could listen very long to these due to the bass. Surprised at the lack of response. Maybe my question was just too open ended. All good though. Cheers.

Hi all, The flat pads I had been using on these have disintegrated. It lasted an impressive 12 years. Sadly those are the only Grado pads I owned and so I need a replacement pair badly. I would like to hear from fellow members which pads have worked for you, especially on the RS1. Currently...

Never mind. Reinstalling the driver and Patchmix (the 2008 version) seems to do the trick.

Hi all, A recent upgrade to Windows 10 results in my current PCI 1212m automatically resampling 44.1KHz music files to 48KHz. Attempts to set the playback sample rate at 44.1KHz either in Windows settings or Patchmix yielded no success. As this card is EOL, there are no recent driver files...

Hi Poo, I did get the below information. I have not bought any pads yet due to the price but hopefully this is useful to you: ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Email: service@sennheiser.com.au The part is...

Join date 2004 here. I don't post nor peruse the Classifieds as much now. I still feel sorry for my wallet, having purchased the HD800, CK100PRO and C5D headamp last year. We sure have a dizzying number of choices out there than many years ago.

Thanks! I've sent them an email. Let's see what they come back with. Cheers!

Hi, I'm quite aware how much earpads can cost, having owned the headphones in my profile (feel free to take a peek...). I still have a hard time even now swallowing the prices they demand but the HD800 pads are a new high for me at about 50% more than the HD6xx ones. I acknowledge availability...

Wishing you and your daughter a speedy recovery,

HI all, Looking to replace my current pads as they feel quite thin and seem to affect the sound quite a bit. A quick search yielded the below links:(in order of increasing price): http://www.custom-cable.co.uk/official-sennheiser-hd800-replacement-earpads-ear-cushions.html...

Headphile uses solid core wires which, while still flexible, should definitely not be subjected to kinks.The main run of the cable, sheathed in what I believe is multi-filament nylon, is free from microphonics. The ends of the cable (at the plugs), where they are terminated with bits of...

Still worth trying to rwplace rhe elastics with even tighter ones. You may be surprised at the result.

I don't think these phones really 'warm up'. It's more likely your ears getting attuned to their sound. I'm personally not a fan of tubes so my exposure is almost all transistors. Speaker amps will definitely have the power to drive these but be wary of the background hiss they tend to exhibit...

You can replace those with the headband ties girls use. It's about 1-2cm in diameter. I don't have pictures on how to do this but it's quite simple. From memory, unscrew the inner and outer cup sides (not the ones covered by the pads). The elastics will be exposed, allowing you to replace it.

I have owned a number of K340s, bass -light & -heavy (based on listening to them, rather than the driver colour -which do indeed vary from model to model-). I modded all my K340s (with the exception of one which still had perfect-shaped cable), being dual-entry cable, internal silver wiring...
