Wow! Thank you so much for your informed and excellent reply. 1) I figured - 1W of power would produce extremely high listening levels. No clue why that's still to this day up on the site, as 101db is already plenty loud and that's at 1mW 2) I think I gave the equation for voltage. I found it...

Hi everyone, I got into headphones because I love music and now am getting more and more interested in the electrical engineering behind our fancy hats. I recently got the Audeze LCD2C, and also have a pair of Sennheiser HD800S that I pair with an objective2 / Massdrop CTH. I have read online...

Hi everyone, I noticed on Amazon that there are only "18 left" of the Sennheiser HD650's. Now, I'm assuming there's only 18 left for now, and that there obviously will be more in the future. With that being said, does anyone know how long these cans will be produced for? I read a review about...

thank you very much! I'll be sure to look through those.

Hi everyone, Every time I go on this forum, I feel totally outclassed by the other members because you guys are all just so knowledgeable about headphones and amps and sound tech. I love music and am slowly developing a passion for high quality headphones, but I really don't know what a lot of...

Hi all, Some background: I am pretty inexperienced when it comes to audio science and the nitty gritty specifics of headphones but I absolutely love music.    Substance: Right now, I own a pair of ATH M50's but I'd like to upgrade sometime soon. Online reviews only do so much when it comes...

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/HOT-sales-M50-DJ-headphones-High-Quality-DJ-Headset-with-retail-package-freeshipping/555016918.html You mean that?....Jeez. Chinese merchants have no sense of decency (and I'm Chinese. It's a shame).

Hi guys. I know what an amp does...I think (increases the power output to headphones so that headphones with a higher impedance can be driven).  (is that even close?) My real question was, what is the point of spending thousands of dollars on amps? As in, why is a Woo Audio Wa22 worth more...

I got the JVC HA M750's when I was just getting into the world of headphones, and was thoroughly impressed. I'd definitely recommend them enthusiastically. 

Nobody seeing this?

I'll preface by saying that I do not know much about audio so perhaps another opinion should be sought.  From what I understand, the Fiio E7 is a USB DAC OR an Amp, so it either acts as an external soundcard (thus bypassing and pretty much making useless Xonar DG) or making the music louder...

Hey guys,so back when I was super cheap on audio, I bought random Philips headphones and what not from the CVS next to my house for 10 dollars. One day I took an adventure on ebay, looked up "headphones", and got a pair of Awei Q5's on ebay. They have since gotten lost, but does anyone know...

I'd love to go but I feel so overwhelmed... :( You guys all have legendary headphones and I have very run-of-the-mill stuff... You guys have probably all seen my setup 100000000 times. It's just a Fiio E7 into an ATH M50. I'm a high schooler buying everything with my own money from my job...

Oops...I'm a moron. Was toying with my headphones, the spring came out and I clipped it...does that do any damage to the headphones (besides the obvious)?? I can't imagine the spring being integral to sound...it's not connected to the cable or anything right?
