Same boat here. Good communication until I shipped my SE530 for recabling, and now haven't heard from Brian in over a month. Did you manage to receive your IEMs eventually?

My old Shure 530 have gone completely busted, and given they are out of warranty, the vendor would only replace them for 535s with a charge of £250 which is not very attractive. I wonder if anyone got any recommendations of where to go to get them recabled, or maybe a trusted head-fier I could...

Thank you, my next question would be, what % do mdr-1000x start to leak for you? Some test results I found show about 7 db difference between them (31dB and 38dB respectively) which doesn't seem like awful lot.

What is the sound leaking out like on these compared to Momentum wireless? I just got these and feel like it is a bit too much and I'm afraid I will disturb people on a plane/train as I like to listen quite loud (i.e. 75% volume on pixel 2)... When listening quietly the sound feels muffled. I...

Not so long ago I've bought 2 different headphones from 2 different sellers here on For Sale forums. But I've not received either of them, and since I was stupid enough to pay with Paypal gift, I couldn't open a dispute or get my money back.   The first one, W1000X, was bought from...

According to this test here http://vst-asio.ru/news/2010-02-18-8 cplay and xmplay are supposedly "better"

what do you think about using DB-2 as a dac for meier concerto? that way i would be able to use it with pb-2 portably and with balanced phones, and with concerto at home and unbalanced

They sound very good. I have the Jena Labs ultrawire on them, 22 gauge. Also J$ v2 pads and d7k cups. The cable was the most significant improvement in mids and highs. The bass and soundstage were enhanced by cups and pads. I really like them :P   The only thing left is to replace the...

Can i join the club? :D

Quote: Nah, it'll still be not enough bass. Because there are other frequencies besides bass in xb-500. So in the overall picture because it'll hear also mids and highs along with bass, it will sound like there is less bass than in the headphone that produces just bass. Thus, it won't be...

  kyuuketsuki, TMG is great ;)   I would also like to mention Reb Beach, one of the best currently playing.

Guys, is anyone travelling past Hull or around that area? (York, Doncaster).  I would gladly chip in for fuel if somebody could give a lift 

  I love grados electric guitar sound. I haven't heard the rs1i, but i had sr325i which was upgraded later to gs1000 which was sidegraded to hf-2 (after owning both for 1.5 years I preferred the hf-2 after all). Guitar and male vox sound divine on grados. Comfort issues are easily...
