Hello people,   The Sennheiser parts service apparently does not stock the leather head pad for the senn HD250 Linear II. This is the leather pad that is suspended underneath the plastic head band.   Is anyone aware of other sources for Senn HD250 Linear II parts?

Hello guys!,   Can anyone recommend a good DIY-er to re-terminate the headphone connectors on an Oyaide headphone cable?   I bought an Oyaide headphone cable (HPC-35 HD) some months ago with Senn connectors. However, they tend to pop out of my headphones (the Senn HD 250 Linear II and...

Head Direct supposedly introduced a new flagship IEM at CanJam '09, the RE3. Did anyone give it a decent listen? If so, how does it compare to the Head Direct RE0? Thanks in advance for any leads.

As the title reads, I am interested in knowing how the Sennheiser HD650 compares with the Markl-modded Denon AH-D5000? I am especially concerned with comparisons regarding resolution (i.e., details), soundstaging (or,perhaps more appropriately, headstaging), and neutrality/transparency.

Gentlemen and Ladies: I was hoping that one of you could assist me with a little problem I have. I need someone who can produce professional recordings from LP's to CD-R's. I have two brand new, still sealed LP's which have sat untouched for five years while I tried, in vain 'till now, to...

For those who have sampled multiple IEMs, which of these are the most transparent? By transparent, I refer to the phone's ability to let the signal through with as little coloration as possible, to the phone' ability to "disappear" and allow the signal and all downstream elements to pass...

I asked this question within a thread on the Amplifier forum, but, on second thought, realized it may well deserve its own thread: I am wondering: is there a discernable performance difference between the Premium Grade Black Gate Capacitors over the Premium VK Black Gate Capacitors or the...

I am considering a new HeadAmp Gilmore Lite amp but would like to know if it is capable of driving tough-to-drive headphones like the AKG K501. Anyone has any insight here?

As the title says, the left earpice of my Grado SR80 has loosen from the headband. I believe it was originally connected to some sort of pin, which may be broken. I can still attach it temporarily by inserting the metal band into the earpiece slot until it "catches." However, there has to be a...

As the title says. I have a couple of records I need to copy (both by Esther Satterfield), and I want the best to do this lady justice. Her music is not available on CD/SACD/DVD-A although she has guest appearances on some album tracks (e.g., Chuck Mangione's "The Land of Make Believe"). Does...

Inquiring minds would like to know: how does the bass of the HD650 compare to other prominent bass phones (e.g., the Stax Omega II, Beyer 770 (Pro), Sony V6, etc.)? I have heard the 600's with the Equinox cable and fully expect the 650's to bring sweet mids and clear trebles to my ears. Early...

As I promised previously, I am posting the response from Ultrasone regarding their new Edition 7 Limited headphones. My apologies for being late with this info as I was getting up to speed with a new job. Von: John A. Prosper [mailto:japrosper@hotmail.com] Gesendet: Dienstag, 11. November...

I have a Sony Walkman WM-D6C that is on its last legs. I am not willing to let it die until I have rebuilt CD/MD versions of my cassette coollection. In particular, the unit tends to eat tape quite a bit regardless of my extensive cleaning. The motor has stopped altogether at times but...

From research on past threads, I see that both DanG and Vka appear to prefer the MS Pro to both the RS-1 and the HP-1/1000 cans. This only leaves the obvious: who is going to volunteer to A|B the MS Pros against any of the leading headphones out there?

Has anyone who bought the Tivoli Audio PAL (by the late Henry Kloss) attempted to use it as a headphone amp? How does it compare with a true HP amp?

I asked this question in another topic thread and since it wasn't answered, I'll start my own thread. Have any of you Super Mini Amp V4 devotees ever compared this amp or any of its previous incarnations to the Grado RA-1 or other portable amps? How does it compare sonically with these amps...

[FONT=times new roman][SIZE=3] Hi, Folks! My name is John, and my handle is JAP. I have been lurking for all of one day before I decided to post some of my own audio concerns. As soon as I clear up some pressing business matters, I plan to retool some of my audio-ware, beginning with...
