    I stepped on my Senn's and now one ear doesn't work

    I was halfway sleepwalking and stepped on my HD600's, not hard and there's no visible damage. Now the left ear doesn't work. I checked the cable to make sure it wasn't disconnected. Could I have killed the driver somehow?

    What's up with my 880/600 beyers?

    Ok, so I'm a total tard....I had the right phone wired to the same terminal as the left. That makes even a nice pair of phones sound like garbage. On another note- I notice no difference from the completely "burned-in" driver from the brand spankin'  new one. I don't have great ears, but I...

    What's up with my 880/600 beyers?

    Hey all,   I just put in a replacement driver to some 880/600ohm beyers I got off ebay. One driver was dead so I ordered a replacement, and after putting it in I was really excited to hear them....however something must be wrong. If the 600's are better than the 250ohm, then I don't like...

    How to tell Ohms of beyer 880 and driver/cable issue

    Quote: And removed the diodes I did, now there's no sound at all through the driver...? I did accidentally pull out one of the terminals when trying to remove the diode, but I pushed it back into place. I seems that that's how they're put there in the first place though. Ugh, I think...

    How to tell Ohms of beyer 880 and driver/cable issue

    Cool, thanks for the replies everyone. I guess it was silly of me to still think they might have been 250ohm with the marked plug. STV- That's exactly what I've been looking for! I couldn't find that on the American/English site, but I have emailed them so time to play the waiting game. I also...

    How to tell Ohms of beyer 880 and driver/cable issue

    So I bought a pair of what I thought were dt880 premium 250ohm headphones on ebay, the right ear not working. When I opened the package the original box says they're the 600ohm version, though this was actually a nice surprise as I've heard great things about the 600ohm set. I figured maybe the...

    Potential issues for no/weak sound in hd600's?

    Quote: Thanks! If it is just the cable then it shouldn't be a problem and plenty of fun. However, would a faulty cable cause intermittent to no sound in just one can? I was thinking the issue might be somewhere inside the can after the cable connects to them.

    Potential issues for no/weak sound in hd600's?

    I'm looking at a pair of hd600's which has one driver with a weak signal or none at all at times. Being that I'm in the market for these headphones, I was thinking of buying them and hopefully fixing them for an overall cheaper price than most used 600s. So my thoughts are either a connection...

    Recabled and now one ear is louder than the other

    I just recabled my dt880s and after my initial reaction of happiness that sound actually came through them indication that everything was connected and working, I noticed the left ear is louder than the right. Putting left cup on right and vs only made me more certain of the difference.   I...

    Should I recable and replace ear pads or sell as-is?

    I made somewhat of an impulse buy on some grado sr60s since the price was decent and I wanted to try them. I've since bought and been very happy with another pair of phones and will be needing to get rid of the grados sometime soon. Since the cables are a little twisted and the ear pads are...

    Using Beyer DT1350's as a main phone?

    I have some dt880/250's that I love more and more each day. Initially the lack of bass compared to the 770's was a let down, but I've grown to dislike the bass bump of them. I'm not wanting to be stuck listening to my phones in my room with the door shut as not to disturb others in the house...

    looking for a good step up from dt770 pro's.

    Wanting more bass than the dt770s is nuts to me, as they already have tons, but personal preference I suppose. The 770s are great phones, most people complain about the bass over powering the recessed mids from what I've read, but if that's what you like then perfect. A headphone amp with give...

    Fiio E11 vs JDS Labs CMoyBB v2.03 (Taking suggestions)

    Just got the e11 about 5 days ago. Seems as though the differences between the e11 and the cMoyBB are pretty narrow, and an sub-par eared person like myself probably wouldn't hear the difference. For example, I really don't hear much of a difference amped or unamped with the e11, on either 770s...

    Something to replace that damned coiled cable (dt 880s)

    I switched from dt770s to 880s and I'm so much more happy with the 80s in about every way...except the damn coiled cable! It falls off my desk as tugs at the headset. It bounces around when I walk and tugs at the headset. If I want to get up and walk further than 3ft away from my audio source...

    Do the DT-990 Pro 250ohm's leak considerably?

    Yep and nope. Leak considerably and I wouldn't use them in a public space. Even at very low volumes the highs And upper mids are easily heard outside the phones.
