    Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review

    TR-X00 Ebony owner here. I just wanted to update this thread to say that the $15 Amazon NewFantasia cable has basically fixed the microphonics problem that I personally felt plagued these headphones. Always loved the way these sound, but found the microphonics on the stock cable (and the...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Hey everybody. Wanted to check in as a first time Grado owner. I bought a pair of SR60e's on a whim when I was demoing headphones in New York. Gotta say they really surprise me with their sound. I own a pair of HD-598 Senns and am seriously thinking I prefer my SR60s, at least for now!

    Westone 4 Impressions and Reviews Thread

    Had my W4R's for about a week now. Love them.   I do think it's odd that joker made the comment in his review about these being forgiving when you don't have a perfect seal. I find that, although they sound pretty good with whatever tips I'm using, they are quite finicky with your tip...

    Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread

    How hard are these to power? I'm thinking of upgrading my Phonak PFE 112s (another fairly inefficient IEM). From what I understand, the SM64s are pretty difficult to drive, and from searching this thread, I can't find a thorough answer to whether or not they're acceptable unamped. I would be...

    Did I melt my e7?

    I'm not totally sure if that's where the battery is located. The spot where the bubble appeared is just over the mini-usb port, which is what is used for charging, so I would guess that the battery isn't too far away.

    Did I melt my e7?

    It looks like my recently-purchased e7 has melted just above the mini usb port on the lower left side of the device. I had it plugged into my PC and was using it for only a few minutes when I noticed that the device had become extremely hot, and then noticed this bubble.    Is this something...

    Strange Problem with my Phonak PFEs

    So I recently (2 weeks ago) bought a pair of Phonak PFEs. I've been absolutely loving them, especially since they are the first phone I've ever paid >$100 for. I've been generally using them during my metro commute to and from work (live in DC) and powering them with my iPhone 4. I've loved the...

    Phonak Audeo - Grey or Black Filters?

    Just got a set of Phonaks in the mail today. Have to say, I'm amazed by how different the two filters sound. And how much LOUDER the grey filters are.
