Just a heads up to anyone in Korea . There is a discount headphone site called solomondc.co.kr that has headphones and Fiio products on sale. 

Ran across this in a Korean head-fi site but my Korean isnt that great and I'm not to familiar with all the parts.Can anyone give me some insight to the technical side of it?  

Kiteki are you in Japan?    Do you know any good website there? I'm stuck in Korea and they don't carry the JVC's here. I wasn't being sarcastic about them. I also don't believe good sound should be expensive. But I will make a custom mold , thanks to life hacker, and see how far I can take...

This thread is exciting.... what kind of cown player do you have? Planning to pick up the W4 but after reading this I'm going to listen to the JVC and find out !

I didn't get a chance but I sent them a message knowing a few of us were interested. I told them we all had some good stuff so I'll wait for their response and let them know.

Well bad news guys... there was a meetup on the 30th of July by forum memebers from golden ears http://goldenears.net/board/GE_Announcements. I try and email them to see when the next one is being held. But click the link if you want to know whatever announcements. If you've been here for more...

I tend to find that non koreans like that stuff. Sorry for the randomness. As far as high end head phonrs over a 1000 your stuck with the T1 and the hd800.Again bring your own source since kpop is not the best quality(recording wise ;)) to test out 1000+headphones with. I would setup a meetup...

You got it man. Directions are fairly easy. I would recommend bringing and amp / dac there.Also if your going to test in-ear phones they provide silicone insertions free of charge. I'm not sure if you like hookah, but the best hookah I've had in Korea is there too in a restaurant called shiraz...

I have an audinst HUD-HMX1 and its working well with my hifiman he-300. I would suggest you go through all these steps --> http://thewelltemperedcomputer.com/SW/Windows/Win7/AudioPanel.htm  . The drivers will automatically update with windows 7 so you will have no problem with drivers. I play...

I agree with the negative side of the headphones. I'm running these out of and audinst HMX-MX1 ( I wished I could get something better but Korea has a really crappy selection of amps that are over priced) and my initial impression was muffled vocals and they were really warm. This is compared to...

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking about getting the asgard or pick up the Hifman ef-5 to run them babies. Heard the HD800s at a store and I'm also a Grado fan so something that many people have been claiming are better is something I'm looking forward too!

I'm using it with both a minibox-d and the audinst HUD-MX1. Definitely better amped!

If you don't already know. The HE-300's came out  and I'm thinking of them over the sennheiser 6XX.

http://www.earphoneshop.co.kr/.   You can test out a few headphones like the Hd800's beyerdynamic 880 250 ohm edition. But they don't carry squat for amps. They have the HDP udac amp but I think it was pure garbage. No difference plugged in from a laptop. bring your own, or I can bring my...

Nope I'll be here for a whole year ^^. So don't worry. Have you ever been to the earphone shop in 혜화( hye hwa?)

Anyone have measurements for grado Rs1 cups? I have someone who can make me a pair if I have the measurements. 

Anyone have a HUD-MX1 and Asgard combo?? I would like to pick up an amp in the future once I have enough to get the HE-4 orthos! :)

Bump ^^. I've been in Korea for sometime but I've searched in Korean and English for meetups but have found none. Anyone have any info?

Would everyone here consider the HF-2 a more fun headphone to use then the RS-1? I'm stuck here in Korea and I can find both for about the same price. I've heard great things about both but I have only had a chance to listen to the RS1's...

Anyone know how it works with orthos? I've read on headfonia that it can drive the Hifiman HE-4 but I would like to get another opinion on it. I would like to trade my beyerdynamic 1350's for the he-4's ^^

How are there compared to the Sennheiser 6XX? I want an upgrade and I am using the audinst HMX-1 as my source.

I've heard the gs1000i , and i've read here that the difference between this and the previous version is mainly the cable. The guy who posted these headphones said he did a recable on it. Haven't had a chance to here the HF2 but I do like my grados and the reviews from people have me leaning...

Sorry to revive an old thread but I am interested in both headphones. I am currently living in Korea and a brand new GS1000i goes for about 1600 ( Yes no the ps1000 which for for around 2200). I would like to get a set of hf2 on the forum but shipping internationally has been a problem for...

Could you explain to me how you did this?? Sorry but I'm a newb.
