    Alternative cable for AKG K450/Q460

    Thanks Vandaven!   It helps a lot to see the cable from a closer perspective, and to read your A-Bing opinion.   Is the cable sturdier than the original? You mentioned it being thicker, but is it well made?   And what is the approximate length of the cable?   Thanks!

    Vandaven, I think you should try the Superlux 668B if you're looking for precision on a budget :) My dad has a pair and the sound is amazing for the price.

    Alternative cable for AKG K450/Q460

    Hi, I've recently purchased an AKG q460 headphone. While  I am pleased with the purchase (I will post a brief review once I have some spare time), I am not pleased (to say the least) by it's cable. The cable is detachable, but the quality of the materials is questionable. Another point of...

    What is the first steps on the long road of becoming a reviewer?

    I, for once, don't mind asking if it means that I actually will get stuff for review. As you said - reviewing high grade equipment of your own costs a LOT of money.

    Closed portables for under a 100$

    Thank you for the advice - I've read great reviews about the m50. However their price in my country is almost 250$ (don't ask me why). And ordering them from amazon incl. shipping and vat. will be almost 200$.   Any other great headphones for 100$?
