As the title says I am looking for a place to get cheap m50s as they recently bumped the price up. Any good ebay sellers? Thanks, Lane

I have finally scrounged up enough funds to buy one of the aforementioned headphones, I just can't decide which! I have searched and could not find any direct in-depth comparisons between the PS1000 and the LCD-2, just a couple tidbits here and there in the massive LCD-2 thread. Does anyone own...

I'm not saying that all songs that do this are bad. In fact, I appreciate the effect when it's used in short periods. When a song is imbalanced for the duration of the song though (i.e. one instrument playing in the left channel), it gets kind of annoying. I actually didn't experience this...

Unfortunately I have to return mine due to defective inner wiring. Damn. I adore the sound quality though when working properly (or rather positioned properly!) but since I need to return mine I'm thinking about possible alternatives again - no problem at all with the audio quality, though...

I've been looking into a decent set of headphones and have narrowed it down to Audio-Technica's ATH-M50, AKG's K-240, and M-audio's Studiophile Q40 (trying to stay around the $120 range).  My current setup is PT 8, with a Delta 66 audio interface.  I'll be using the headphones mostly listening...

First off I gotta thank qazwsx for recommending these so strongly in another thread. At 50 bucks (newegg) I couldn't pass up trying them. Plus I really wanted to give Sennheiser another shot after somewhat struggling with my HD595s. I think they do serve a purpose (the 595s) after a lot of burn...

Dear all,   I have acquired a K702, as i want to modify it into dual cable entry (cable are come to each cup directly). I have ordered the parts of "cover left + mini-XLR" to do the modification. However, when i opened the Grid cover, i found the original "ring right" does not match the...

  which model is this with what specs?  i guy is selling these here, but i have no idea what they are worth. 7 years old ..   anyone with an idea?

With a $2000 budget I just bought some used HD800's and Little Dot DAC_I and MKVII+. I'll be running these balanced.   I'm reading that the HD800's are really picky on what's driving them, but also read that what I bought powers them fine. And they should do better than any single-ended...

I got a pair of Grado SR125s a couple of years back, but just moved and haven't received them yet, so in the meantime I'm going to buy a new pair of phones. My music choices are mainly rock. Stuff like: The Beatles, Jethro Tull, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Pixies, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Smashing...

Same as most, I'm a long-time browser, first time poster on the forums. I could really use anyones advice. I'm looking to break open the piggy bank and get myself a set of headphones I can be proud of now and despair at later when they die. Help me, Head-fiers, please.   I'm looking for...

Why is SPDIF better than USB?  Aren't they both digital signals?  Why would one be an improvement over the other?   I apologize if this has been discussed (seems like an obvious topic), I just can't find it.   I've seen DAC's that have USB and SPDIF inputs, and everyone says the SPDIF...

Hey there,   I currently have the Cute Beyond headphone amplifier. I am happy with it except for the  hum/noise I get due to the power supply (ground loop).    I also have the Little Dot I+ and with it I don't get that background noise.   I am not looking for any "sound flavor", in...

For some years now we have been discussing the merits of connecting a DAC to a computer via USB. The original USB Audio 1.0 spec was issued almost 10 years ago and it defined 3 different connection models. The key difference for these connection models is the location of the master clock...

If I had my druthers, there'd be an easy way to carry a good turntable setup and LP's around, as the best I've heard from analog sources still trumps (to my ears) the best I've so far heard from digital.  That said, I ended up abandoning vinyl a long time ago (I know, sacrilege!), as it simply...

So I've finally decided on a model for my first high end headphones. It's taken me a good week to decide, and for my situation these seem to be the best choice for me. Now, from what I've read / seen there's minimal difference between the two. It looks like the following changes were made...
