Wow that's a nice looking right angle adapter. Where did you find that?   And is there a screw-on version?

In Canada, Futureshop is having them on sale for $69.99 at the moment.   I bought a pair but I am hesitate to open them because Futureshop has a strict no return policy due to hygenie reasons (in my opinion, its a stupid made up rule used to block people from returning the products).   Would...

Hiya,   Personally I think I prefer the UE6000 because it is more neutral. Dont' get me wrong, I enjoy the AKG sound signature of emphasis treble which reveals a lot of detail in the music but UE6000 for me is more relaxing. And at home, I rarely have listening sessions now, I only listen to...

UE6000 Update 2

UE6000 Update

I recently purchased the etymotic MC5 and found them to be surprisingly inefficient.   I read the specs of the headphone at 16ohms and 100db.   However, when compared to the other IEMs I own, these MC5 requires twice the amount of volume to sound even with my other IEMs which are similar in...

    I don't think one needs to go that in-depth with the word bass; especially the difference between mid-bass and sub-bass.   Bass should be taken as is, when you hear it, you know it is bass (e.g. you would not call mid, bass)   I can make an argument that, what defines sub-bass...

Here's my take on the bass:   I agree, it is quite neutral sounding. But it is not bass light - at all. I might even say it is a bit north of neutral.   Comparison: Q701 = south of neutral (bass light) K550 = neutral DT1350 = north of neutral BUT of course... when comparing DT1350 to...

Retracted!

Retracted!

Could I get some help with these headphones?   The rivet have become really loose, before I could adjust them so the earcups do not lean on the back of my ear. But now the rivet is loose, its hurting my ears...   Anyone know how to tighten the rivet without sending them to beyerdynamic? It...

That's actually a really good point! I always think from the audiophile side of things, maybe in the consumer world people do want on-ear just because it is smaller (even though its not that much smaller, a little bit counts I guess!)

I pretty much nailed it down to the Etymotic HF5 or MC5 for under $150.   Please keep in mind sound quality is not what I'm after. I really just need the maximal amount of isolation possible.   I've seen the MULTI IEM Compared Thread and I see the HF5 have a score of 4.5/5 and MC5 have a...

I understand what you are saying. But for headphones like momentum... It doesn't seem necessary to have on ear model as they are quite similar in size and would take roughly the same space. The difference is not that big... That's where my confusion is pointing to...

On-ear have an advantage (in my opinion)... ...to be more portable (but I feel like a lot of over-ear can fold away into a small package for travel [ex. UE4000 versus UE6000], so this doesn't seem like an advantage. Furthermore, IEM tend to be more portable than on-ear) ...on-ear models...

Was there a deal for this that I was unaware of?

That's a beautiful picture! Wow...

Anyone in Canada, can pick these up from Tiger Direct for $69! (ends in 1 day i think...)   I would pick these up ... but I don't need another headphone :(

Thank you for your reply.   I did see the Fiio replacement cable, but people say that cable is very microphonic :(   I'll check out the UE900 cable! Thanks!

I'm looking for a cable-type similar to my JVC Marshmallow. I love the cable on my Marshmallow because of how thin it is, how tangle-free they are, and how easily I put them on.   The SE215 cable just bothers me being so thick, rigid, and it takes little effort to put them on.   I've looked...

How would you say your Schiit Magni/Modi setup compare to the Fiio E11 when using the K545?

The K550 have tight, accurate, reference style bass. Don't expect the bass to be big, with any type of burn-in.
