    Head-Fi.org Featured Content

    I have to scroll past 11 Head-Fi.org Featured Content things to view the recent forum activity.   Do we really need 11?  2 or 3 should be enough, and then right below them a link to "more featured content", where older / less important stuff can be viewed.   I promise you I'm not the...

    MOT question

    Hello.   The day this site changed from vBullitin to the current software, there was a message displayed talking about the switch over.   One of the things it said was that there were going to be less restrictions about what type of content MOT's could post on head-fi.   I was...

    First unread post

    Hello.  Often when I click on a recently updated thread it takes me to the first unread post but then the images load and the thread changes position, so that when all is said and done in a blink of an eye I am no longer seeing the first unread post.  Usually it ends up showing parts of 2...

    Image resize

    I'm not quite sure what the forum is doing, but if I try and post a somewhat large size photo it is resized. I'm not sure what the resize is dependent on resolution size or whatnot.   Either way, it's frustrating.  There are times when a large photo is simply what is required.  Linking to...

    Large free space suggestion

    Hi Jude.   I think a lot of people liked the old forum because the content was much tighter in display.  This implementation has large amounts of free space.   If the software could be optimized to trim off some of the free space, along with a few placement changes, the forum could be...

    PM broken

    When I go to send a PM, I can't type in the dynamic text part.  If I click on source, I can type in stuff there, but not on the other text part.  It looks normal, but I simply can't type in it.   I can type in the dynamic places in all other parts of the forum, like I'm doing now.

    New Forum Complaints

    Hi Jude and all others interested.   You asked for feedback on the forum if there were things we did not like, so I would like to offer my advice.       I am having a hell of a time navigating the site.  Things do not seem logically organized for me.  I seem to be flooded with a wide...

    Wooaudio GES channel imbalance?

    Hello. I just made an adapter for my HE60 headphones and am using them on the WooAudio GES that I purchased. This is my first time trying the GES since I received it. I'm getting a slight feeling that there is a slight channel imbalance to the left side. I'm not sure if this is the...

    Boston MA 3-6-2010 Meet Impressions

    I'm surprised there isn't an impressions thread going yet, so I decided to start one myself. Just got in. Great time. I'll post impressions later. Pictures probably to come tomorrow.

    Larger Ads...

    Hi all. I just noticed the ads on the right side got bigger.... They now take up 1/3 of my screen. Makes the rest of the forum a little compressed for me. Are they here to say, or is google at fault?

    HE60 adapter question

    Hello. I was wondering if you know who is able to make an adapter to go from the HE60 plug to the Stax pro plug. (Not reterminating the HE60 cable, but an adapter). I also have heard people say that a resistor in one of the leads needs to be added, which I can only assume is to lower the...

    HD800 Initial Impressions (and vs. HE60)

    Hello. These are my initial impressions on the Sennheiser HD800. Most of my listening has been done with my main headphone setup sourced by the MHDT labs Havana NOS tube dac with WE396A tube, feeding either the HeadAmp GS-1 or WooAudio WA6 headphone amps. I have had these for roughly 3 months...

    Speakers on a budget?

    Any recommendations for a nice sub 500$ pair of bookshelf's? Ideally very neutral and musical. In favor of a smoothly rolled off sound, with preference given to tighter more detailed bass vs. more bodied bass. Any come to mind? These would be for my dad.

    RE0 vs. RE2 Initial Impressions

    RE0 vs. RE2 I’ve used the Head Direct RE0 and RE2 with my little Ipod shuffle and nano. I’ve also tried them out of my home setup for haha’s. What follows is what I would like to call my initial impressions. I do not review items, I just tell you what I think. This is my 3'rd RE2 and my first...

    HD800 price speculations

    Lots of people like to speculate about possible price drops on new products, and I have received a lot of feedback in the HD800 thread. So much that it warrants a new thread. Some have said that production will be slow on the HD800. Some have said that sennheiser will try and control prices...

    IC: Western MA (NE) minimeet

    Hi there. So the NE regional meets are a thing of the past now that no one is willing to host one and I miss seeing the local NE crowd. I don't have the funds to put on a full fledged regional meet, but I was thinking about the possibility of hosting a mini meet. Mini meets are cool...

    Sennheiser PX100 Impressions

    Hello. These are my impressions regarding the Sennheiser PX100 headphones. My listening has been done using a Mhdt labs Paradisea+ with WE396a and WooAudio WA6 with 274B. I also mention times when I used them with an ipod nano. A quick check on bhphoto.com shows the PX100 selling for 38$us...

    Koss KSC75 Impressions

    Hello. These are my impressions regarding the Koss KSC75 clip on style headphones. I have owned these for about 2 years now, and used to use them for portable use. A quick check online shows they can be had for 16$us at amazon.com. My version does not have the built in volume control. My...

    6L6GC tube question

    Hi all. I was wondering what part of the 6L6GC people refer to as being a 'black plate' or a 'grey plate'. I'm not sure what part they are talking about. Can anyone explain this?

    Oddball headphone Journey...

    I noticed something just a few days ago that really ticked me off. My first nice headphone was the Senn HD590. I really liked it. Sounded nice and was comfortable. I was driving this off my computer sound card (audigy 2 zs). I wanted an upgrade, so I: bought the Beyer DT990pro 600ohm...

    Initial Impressions: WA6 vs. GS-1

    It's silly for me to be calling this my 'initial' impressions, since I have had the GS-1 now for a long time (over a year), and the WA6 for quite a few months. The reason for this is that I've found it very hard to form my thoughts on how these two amps differ. Is that a good thing? Maybe. I...

    Budget CD player

    Hi all. Looking for a somewhat decent budget CD player. I am not expecting very good sound quality, just average for the price range. A CDP with good build quality would be ideal. The NAD's just don't impress me that much. The only ones I can find in the ~350$ price range that seem...
