moon 8/10 this movie, more than any other I've seen, depends on the performance of one person, and Sam Rockwell does an amazing job. Great score too!

I'm guessing a convolver is like an equalizer? I use VST and Electri-q (like the equalizing headphones thread suggests) and have a -7.4 dB valley at 6400 HZ and a -5.0 dB valley at 12000 HZ, and that smooths the treble out (for me at least) Enjoy the 'phones!

I actually bought Shure 750dj's from an ebay seller, then returned them. If they were mine, they were well taken care of and burnt in for over 100 hours.

Have you done any of the diy markl mods?

The Pico dac/amp would be out of your price range (even used). I would go for the iBasso D2+. It has good performance for iem's, and with 38 hours battery life, it's a better choice than the D4 (~9 hours).

One to look at would be the iBasso T3 and use it with their LOD Skylab Review http://www.head-fi.org/forums/6293868-post2565.html With the LOD and shipping ($22) it would still be shy of your $200 mark.

My amp isn't clipping, clipping would be in the dac (I think?). Anyways, when I turn the 9v on with the stock buffers, it works for about 20-30 seconds, then starts going to nothing, then full volume and back about once per second. Putting in the bypass buffers fixed this, but I like the...

I'm having a bit of trouble with my new D4. When I power the amp with 9v power and the original buffers, It starts to oscillate after about 20 seconds. USB and the original buffers works fine. I got the bypass buffers (Hiflight), and they work fine with 9v power. I was wondering if there...

I just did the Markl mods on my D5000 last night, and the differences are amazing! If you don't want to do the entire thing, at least try the 3 steps at the bottom of the first post. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/how...0-mods-299627/

This is just from what I remember, I had the 840s, then returned them to the seller, because of the power hungriness. The two have similar sound signatures, but the dj's have more bass and less treble.

Shure SRH-750dj, just got mine yesterday, and they absolutely fit your description perfectly. They are bassy (maybe too much for my tastes, but burn-in will tell), incredibly punchy, even from a sansa clip. The soundstage is pretty good, comparable to SRH840s For $150, these are very good...
