    Audio Only Cable for V-Moda M-80

    I've recently purchased a pair of V-Moda M-80's...   They came with two 3.5mm jack plug to jack plug cables, both with controls/mic built in.   Whilst these cables work fine, I would prefer to use an audio only cable as I'm using a Sony MP3 player with a Fiio E11 portable amp so have no...

    Are Akg K141 mk 2 good for keeping noise out/in

    Just reporting back now I've had some use out of these headphones: To clear up the sound leakage situation - yes there is a reasonable amount - so I'd say for your purposes using them out in "public", spend the extra £10GBP & go for the K 171 Mk II's as they're closed back. I'm very...

    Shure SRH440 vs Ultrasone HFI-450 vs Audio-Technica ATH-M40fs ??

    I'm very new to the world of cans & am far from being an audiophile! Forum members advice on getting this right first time will be greatly appreciated. Based on a wealth of information found on these forums I've upped my budget from my initial first post to a maximum of £65 GBP. I've been...
