Hello new to posting on head-fi I have been lurking for quite a while. I am looking to upgrade my headphones from AD700. My current setup is Foobar(mostly flac or 320kbp cbr mp3s) > E7 > Little Dot I+ hybrid with mullard m8083 OPA2107 > ad700   What would be the best headphone to upgrade...

Hello Head-Fi.... I've started to have issues with the 3.5mm plug on my AD2000s. When the strain relief of the 3.5mm plug bends, the signal crackles and/or cuts out.   Pretty much all I need is for someone to replace the plug with another 3.5mm somehow..   I would replace this myself...

Well guys, here we go. I have been extremely satisfied with my set up for the past 1.5 years. I've loved my MD2000 like a ridiculously large chocolate bar, taking bite after bit out of it, mmmmm. But the time has come, to experience other sides of this hobby.   Not only has my music taste...

About 2 months ago I upgraded to the ATH-AD2000s and have fallen in love with them, but i dont think my little ibasso P3+ is giving me the power or the sound im looking for. So i ask you guys... has anyone had experience amping this phone and what your suggestions may be? Im willing to spend...

I love the sound of the TF10, however their cost in relation to their build quality and cabling ruined them for me as I couldn't keep something like that. I'm looking for a fun U shaped sound, good soundstage and at least decent in everything else (comfort, build, details, maybe a little...

Which one is better? i can't find anything on the 2900...

An informal poll of headphones with the best midrange: ATH-AD2000 Grado RS1 AKG K501 AKG K240(600oms) and other variants DT 48 (variants) EDIT: ESW9 & 10 Other (...) The Midrange Champion Is? So far in the thread, it's seems to point to the R10. Thought it would be the akgs.

I'm looking for more great help from you guys!  The music I listen to most is Contemporary Jazz. I really appreciate the clarity, and accuracy of individual instruments. Bass needs to be solid, not too overbearing. Crystal-clear highs, and up-front mids are most important for instruments and...

I am looking to make the entry into a proper set of headphones over the crap headsets I have been using for years.  The last headset I had where the Logitech's G35, seemed massive when I bought it.  It lasted two months before both cans cracked off the headband when I put it on one day.  Turns...

I have a pair of Grado Sr325's and they are great! Except I find the jumbo pads much more comfortable and in doing so I think I am over driving them and have blow drivers twice now.    This is very frustrating. My only gripe with them is I would like a little more bass but not a lot more...

I think I've narrowed down my choice in cans to these: ATH-AD2000 and ATH-AD1000PRM   I have no heard either and I live in the middle of nowhere, so I can't try them and I doubt people would lend them to me. Anyways, here's my full play list:  

Alright this might not seem like a fair comparison, but you might be surprised at some parts.  I'm probably a casual when it comes to audiophiles, so I don't know all the proper terms.  My A900s are a few years old, and the AD2000 is new at over a week.   Setup Primary: PC onboard digital...

Now almost all of my Headphones are Audio-Technica except for YuinPK2 and SonyE888, so my Full-Size is all ATH. Now I want to ask if I can use HA5000 with all of ATH full size headphone ? Like AD2000 , AD1000 , A900 , A1000x , A2000x , W1000x and W5000. Is it suitable to use as an all-rounder...

I was wondering if HA5000 is suitable with AT A series ? I currently have many A series [included A2000x] and plan to buy W5000 and AD2000 soon so as I stated above, I wonder if HA5000 can drive a variety series of ATs full-size phones.  

I bought these, I think they sound good enough. The highs don't hurt my ears at loud volumes. The highs of the A900 hurt my ears at high volumes. (I listened at yodobashi umeda, so it's not fair at all). The bass doesn't get in the way but it's there. There's a bass line in "Good times"...

I'm currently in search of the best headphones around $300-$500, maybe higher if it's really good.  I tried several of the recommended ones, and found problems with them, so I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.  I currently have the DT990s.  The only thing I don't like is their...

Hi, I'm a newbie Head-fier.   I drive my ath-a2000x with a portable device and find the sound rather light and fatiguing even though there's no problem in volum. For now A2000x sounds somewhat harsh, dry, hard and cold (with a bit of sibliance)     So, I'm looking for an amp that can add...

Hello,    I want to know what are the best Headphones for listening (Jazz - Jazzrock) - Budget 300 400 dollars ??      Akg 701 maybe ?     Thanks for the help      

I've been out of the portable game for a long time (Been sticking to my ESW9s for a while, and before that I had no portable setup at all.)   So I'm looking for a pair of budget IEM setup with a very luscious and full sound that can handle a wide variety of genres with authority. I'm not...

Regarding the Audio-Technica ATH-AD2000. I have read some of the feedback these cans have received here. Most of which has been very positive. The thing is, not many online businesses seem to sell them anymore (that I am aware of anyway) As they seem to have been discontinued. I have seen a few...

According to Musician's Friend, the AD 2000 shares the exact same FR (5-40000), driver size (53 mm) and sensitivity (102 dB/mW) as the ES10. They also both use neodymium magnets. I'm wondering if perhaps they share the same driver? Could anyone please get a picture of their AD 2000's driver...

would love to hear what everyone thinks is the most fun set of cans out there that suits their individual preference. Price is a non-factor so it doesn't matter if it's a $50, $200 or $1,000 set of cans that gets you buzzing. This to me, is purely about going back to the basics of enjoying...

I was surfing and wandering around audiocubes.com and came across this amp. http://www.audiocubes.com/category/H...phone_Amp.html Was wondering if its decent enough to power my AD2000. Does anyone have other better suggestions? I dont know how it performs but it sure looks good...

Mini-Review: Luxman P-1u Intro First, thanks to Todd @ TTVJ for allowing me (and the other people in this loaner program) to audition the Luxman P-1u at home for serious evaluative listening. I wanted to participate in this loaner program because I've had a long-running interest in desktop...
