    Which ones to keep? HD6XX, AKG K7XX, Shure SRH-1840, HE4XX

    Yes, agree.. I could have bought a display model but I saw 1) Cracked veneer 2) the headphone connector was not working properly on one side, when moving you could hear cuts.... So I guess the v2 addresses those, but at 3k I think it's, is just insane... beside, I get to enjoy open designs less...

    Upgrade path from Burson HA-160D?

    Hello, I have this DAC/Amp combo... I'm wondering how much better I can get after this. I do love that it has multiple inputs (I use currently only two of them) and looks nice and solid. I know the DAC section is the weak one and I do have a Dacport LX connected to it, so the sound comes...

    Which ones to keep? HD6XX, AKG K7XX, Shure SRH-1840, HE4XX

    Hello guys, I have these open headphones and wanna know your opinions about keepers. I do listen to music and nothing professional. I'm mostly feeding them from a Burson HA-160D, Dac sometimes switched to a Dacport LX (sound gets cleaner) and occasionally from my mac on a DragonFly Red. Shure...

    Build Quality You cannot expect to pay 400 USD for a NC wireless headphones, then after a couple of uses you can hear creaks all over, thus defeating the NC itself. I would avoid these because of quality issues.. I have Bose QC15 with years of use, I only had to change the earpads, the rest is...

    Denon AH-MM400

      Thanks.. i gently pulled them off and were easily removed, putting them back is a little trickier. The 1840 are way too big for them.

    Once you remove the pads.. done? You cannot put them on again? Also.. I have a Shure SRH1840 with extra velour pads... would they fit? they seem bigger than the stock ones.

    E-MU Wooden Series Headphones

    I would really like to try teak against some other wood to see if the difference is so big as some people say....

    Does anyone knows which ones (if they are there) are the zebras here? It's difficult to get Chan to send me pics :/   Also no other housing has the same sound signature as the Teaks?   http://emu.com/index.php/gallery/housing

    E-MU Wooden Series Headphones

      Thing is, at least from the pictures, I don't like the look of the teak wood. According to this http://www.lawtonaudio.com/type3woods.html it should give a natural tone.   For the pics I've seen, E-MU is miles away from the Lawton quality, but again... I would never pay like 450 usd just...

    E-MU Wooden Series Headphones

    I asked Emu also and I'm quite confused about the wood selection and also the price seems went up a lot?   Teak headphones with detachable cable are 500.   Cups:    $120 for Ebony, Palo Santo  $100 for Rose,  Mahogany, Purple Heart, Sabili, Zebra   He suggested to take Teak + Ebony to...

    It's just amazing he has a HD800 and does't even use a proper DAC. To be honest it's a useless review. I'm still more surprised you bought a O2 with 0 knowledge...
