    Massdrop AKG K812 Giveaway! - COMPLETE!

    WHOA! Sweet.  MD username is Fumobs.     Someone mentioned HE-6...been looking for anything planar, really, but it would be nice to see Hifiman's.   Personally been waiting for UE900's if possible. :)   ***EDIT*** UE900...or the UE 4 Pro.  I'd be more excited for the UE 4 Pro.

    Livesoundwave.com and Head-Fi promotion - $50 off orders of $200 or more!

    I could never understand how these deals really work at all for the customer.  GC does this a lot and it's always turned my head sideways trying to figure out why you would even do such a thing.  $50 off $200 is the best deal here...a maximum 25% discount.  But once you hit a price point of...

    Memorial Day "Make an Offer" Sale

    Question: while this deal is live, will you guys be putting in more products on the list or what's there now is only what's available during the deal?

    Memorial Day "Make an Offer" Sale

      Thanks for your response!  What I'm wondering is if performance is worth the price tag.  I've seen some posts in my past browsing that claimed headphone 'A' is either: a) a huge steal, b) worth it but if you have extra cash go for headphone 'B', or c) totally overpriced.  I certainly...

    Memorial Day "Make an Offer" Sale

    I gave it a try on the Westone UM 30 Clear today.  It shows a retail of $399...tried $299 and it was accepted.  Is that a good deal?  Or...the better question, is 25% a good deal?   Also, I thought I could try three times on one item?  After only one try, I'm now getting the message to come...

    Reply to review by 'fumobs' on item 'Sennheiser HD530 '

    If I may offer a simple suggestion: it would be a good idea to not take shots at a crowd for their preferences, or straight-out trash-talk the products.  Some of your choice words are uncalled for, are a useless statement, and do nothing to benefit you or your review in light of the readers. ...

    FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread

        Hmm!  I like what I'm hearing (with regards to explanation)!  I always like better controlled bass these days.  I've been such a huge fan of the rubber tips, but I guess if it means a more enjoyable sound I can learn to live with foams.   I've liked the Comply foam tips so far, but I'll...

    Wow.  Only $400?  I'm getting tired of my Fidelio X1's and have been thinking about planar HP's...but I really like having a wide sound stage so I guess I'll have to hold back on these.   But very nice, thank you for your review.  And they're white--very pretty!

    FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread

      Hm??  I'm confused. :O  I've been under the impression that foam tips add more bass...but no?  Or is there something about the Monster foam tips?  And those foam tips are advertised as more bass (and clarity...but I can't quite figured out how adding more bass adds more clarity, unless they...

    Quote:     Aw.  How unfortunate.    I got lucky with using Comply TS400 tips, but i'm betting you probably already went through those, too.

    FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread

    I see.  Glad to hear Fidue's on it!   I couldn't find a contact info (email or #) for ProStudio...seems like they defer everything to Amazon unless your message is an invoice request or a thank you note.  In chatting with Amazon, they've recommended I just do a return-for-refund and...

    FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread

    Hello, all!  I recently bought these about three weeks ago.  I am certainly enjoying them...not quite what I was initially looking for, but once I did away with my expectations, I ended up enjoying them for what they offer.  I've mainly keep them at work connected to a Fiio E17 since this is the...
