Hi All,   I've been slowly going mad trying to find a suitable USB DAC and headphone amp for my DT990's at work. I would like to keep to a budget of $200 or less. Given the impedance, many of the built-in headphone amps I've found are not suitable. At present I'm considering getting either...

Does anybody know of a website for headphone modifications. Or does anybody have ideas on modifying AKG 701's or Beyer dynamics Dt990s.

I really loved my DT990s, I really screwed up one of the drivers today though and was wondering, what is a nice comfortable headphone with good bass and clarity, but without the sharp treble of beyers.   I am going to see if I should get a new set of headphones or just replace the driver and...

I'm looking for a tube amp in the $100-$150 range. I'm currently using a Schiit Magni and am finding that the pairing is not very good. The bright DT990 sounds too mechanical with the Magni. I would really like something warmer. I think that with the pairing the sound is distant and recessed.The...

Right now I am using the Fiio e10 which is fairly new and it is nice although I am getting some static issues only through my macbook air. Not sure what is up there but it works fine on my computer. It can drive my DT 990-250 well and not going past 30% volume on it (Approx 2.5/8 on volume). But...

I have a pair of beyerdynamic DT990's bought in April last year and they are brilliant however recently the right earpice has started doing something very strange, at seemingly random points when I'm using the headphones the right earpiece will start to mute, it does not do so instantly but...

I really want these headphones to be extremely comfortable which is why I have had an eye on the DT770/880/990 however I do not have the possibility to test these out myself I have gotten different opinions from...

I got recommneded Creative Live and Grado sr60i   The problem is the i listen to rock, pop and rap and the grado is not the best for rap and the creative not the best for rock   is there headphones that will be good for all genres?

Hi guys. Currently I own IE80 earphones from Sennheiser. The sound quality is amazing. However, I also want to get myself a headphones for home usage, and also for my computer sound card Essence STX. What could you recommend? Budget is $500 max.

I have a koss ur40. While I really like the wide and open feel, I am always finding that it is lacking something.   Firstly, it lacks bass and the sound is not full, as if there isn't much weight. When the volume is increased, it simply get loud, without the weight. The sound also feels very...

Hello, fresh mole here. :) Got my feet into this tube amp world just a few days and have some interesting feelings.    I'm very amused to find that although the LD has some slight issue it pairs with my headphones well. I noticed that for the two medium gain settings there's channel imbalance...

Hey guys,   Need some advice with my DT990s 600ohm. One day, the left driver decided to quit on me, and I discovered that it was the extremely thin, hair-like wires that lead into the driver itself was detached from the metal tabs. I have since resoldered it and I can hear sound coming from...

Id like to know which one you think is better, both are selling for the same price, looking for a more fun oriented sound as I had neutral headphones only by now, would use it for gaming and music

Hey people im looking into a set of headphones for my tablet/iphone for flying,can anyone recommend some that I can look into?   noise cancellation ofc Pretty loud  for movies/music/ games Hopefully look pretty good on flight and out and about/     Would appreciate it guys im stuck...

Has this ever happened to you? Its been with me for the past three, four days, and its now starting to worry me....how to put it simply...all headphones sound bad to me. I mean literally, horribly bad. I cant even force myself to listen to any of them. I don't know how this happened, one day I...

Hello fellow head-fiers,what would be the best headphones under 300 bucks? I listen to rap,pop,rock,classical, well, everything. So yea, what would be a good model?

Hello, I am looking for some headphone recommendations for where I work.    The headphones I have from before is LCD-2.2 and HE-500 + some BeyerDynamic DT 990s, but the 990s is a bit ****ed up at the moment so I can't use them, and I'd rather not drag along the HE-500 or LCD-2.2, they are my...

Hello, new Head-fier here and just getting into all these audio info. So I recently bought Sennheiser HD518s and a Fiio E07K amp and I LOVE the music coming out of it. However, I do want more bass. I've searched through the forums + google and everyone says the HD558s and HD598s has a lot...

I love my Sennheiser 598's but I feel for certain types of music they are lacking in bass.  I'm looking for headphones that would go well as a contrast to these headphones, with a budget of up to $300 but not a hard limit.

Do such headphones exist? I'm a pc gamer but also listen to techno, jazz, classical. Looking for something that has the nice soundstage for games but also has great bass. I just picked up the superlux 668b and so far really liking them. Haven't tested in gaming yet but music is a big step up...

Help!  I have several brands of cans, HE-400, Audeze LCD2, Grado 325i, Beyerdynamic DT990 and HD 600. On any given day they all sound nice. I'm using a Little Dot MKIII with 6 sets of tubes. I still want to upgrade the cans. Is the HE-500 worth the extra $$$ over the 400?  I could live with out...

After trying to resist the headphone buying bug for a couple of eyars I broke down and bought a FiiO E10. And now, what the heck, might as well get the cans I want, something that sounds like my well broken in 780s (mod with beyerdynamic cushions). I have a pair of Grado SR80, and while the bass...
