Eh, I've had the HD650 for more than a year now and I've never gotten over the clamping. I don't think I have too big of a head, but the clamping is just really bad when I wear glasses. I do stretch them out over a pillow, and they initially feel OK, but they start clamping again in no time.

This might be a silly question, but I'm wondering if it's OK to connect my Audioengine A2 speakers to my NuForce DAC/amp? The instructions that came with the speakers say not to connect the terminals from the speakers to a receiver, but it should be safe to connect my speakers using RCA to RCA...

Quote: That's correct. They're still sending me the IE80. They're just giving me the CX310s for free due to the inconvenience of the delay.

My warranty replacements for my old IE7 got delayed until mid-April, which sucks, but the customer service rep is sending me some free CX310s due to the inconvenience. Sennheiser gets more points from me again.

Just called this morning and it'll be about 2 weeks before they come in (currently on backorder). I can live with that.

from the hack.

I bought some IE7s when J&R was getting rid of their stock for cheap, and one of the cables had the inside wiring detach (no more sound). I sent it in for warranty service, and according their email they're sending me the IE80. I didn't even know there was a new model out.   I'm really...

Sibilance on the D2000 and D5000 really bothered me and I had to return them. M50 definitely reminds me of the D2000, although the bass doesn't thump as hard, but the highs also don't hurt my ears. And this doesn't have anything to do with the sound, but the headbands are practically identical.

If they're good enough for FlyLo, they're good enough for you.   Quote:
