    DT 770 Pro 80 driver rattle

    Thanks to those that said it may be dust or a hair. I decided today to take the "risk" and take apart the headphones and give them a thorough cleaning. One little hair in particular had made it's way halfway through the white fibrous material that covers the driver. A careful tug got it out in...

    DT 770 Pro 80 driver rattle

    Recently my DT770's left driver has developed a rattle when reproducing bass notes. They are still under warranty but I'm having a hard time navigating their website to figure out how to start the RMA process. Is anybody familiar with their RMA process or how good their customer service/repair...

    Probably too weak for the HD600, definitely too weak for the 701

    "Active" or "Passive" listening, where do you stand?

    Interesting poll I'd say 25% of the time. When I was younger it was more like 50/50 because I would actively listen to music while laying down to go to sleep. Now that I'm in college and have a job, I generally listen to music while writing papers or while driving around.

    Koss A130 Driver Fix

    I just took apart my Koss A130s to fix the rattling issue with the drivers. It was a very easy fix but I'm sure that many others, like myself, are weary about taking apart their headphones if they've never done it before. I took pictures showing how I did the fix in case others are interested in...

    DT770/80 at Guitar Center

    Alright. If I'm not happy with my A130s I'm going to try that. I just got them today and am trying them out. I took them apart and sealed down the drivers with sticky tak because they were jiggling around like many others have said. Easy fix and only took a few minutes and $1.59.

    DT770/80 at Guitar Center

    What did you say to them to get them to match $150? I can't find them for cheaper than $180 anywhere and the guy I spoke to at GC said they need proof that another place is offering them that cheap.

    KOSS A250 from KOSS eBay thread

    So it would be best to pair these with an amp that improves bass while "softening" the highs? What do you recommend to tone down the brightness?

    New to head-fi, need help for gaming headphones!

    People are probably going to ask you what kind of sound you prefer... heavy bass, exciting, laid back, airy, etc.

    KOSS A250 from KOSS eBay thread

    This thread sold me. I'm getting the A130s for now and then will get another pair of headphones around Christmas. What amp should I get to go with them? Will the LDM+ suffice?
