I am rocking stock pads for now. They work fine for me. I agree i never ever EVER use over ears outside. Someone even tried to compliment me on them but he had to smack me on the shoulder because I didn't realize quite how much these isolate. Keepers? Yup the bottom end is powerful, capable...

FedEx had my DD's waiting for me when I got home. Ripped that notch open and plugged those notches in. Consider me FULLY IMPRESSED, crazy wide open stage that is simply ridiculous for a closed back. the venting holes work. and deep rumbling sub tones on acoustic drums comes thru clearer than...

Hbb and dr blue both singing a headphones praise might be the highest level of respect for a product i could hope to hear. Hopefully my dd will be at home when i get back today? I never got a tracking # but drblue got his pretty fast so im hopeful. Then again he's closer to DD HQ

^^^ If turbo mode 4W could damage the SZ's, mine would be very very broken by now. I'm turbo-ing my SZ2ks with the bass switch on right now.

You'll be glad you did. I also got rid of my mojo long ago with lack of bass power being one of the reasons why. But whereas on the old iDSD I had the bass boost always on and never touched it, I don't always have it on with my black edition. The thing to remember about the black edition's...

I bought the dd's before i even watched hbb's video, and then i watched and stoked is all i can say.... This breaks a long long streak of only sz's. Oh my god, dd headphones!!!! This is completely unexpected. Fully sick! Will test with idsd black edition. I need to figure out how to edit...

I grabbed some of the KZ Star tips that are so popular. They fit fine on Sony style IEMs but somehow manage to make all the sub frequencies disappear. Slapped my good ol Spiral Dots or Sony hybrid tips back on and the bass came right back.   

I had that one on order and the cancelled it for the one i now have when i saw a review by someone who had both and claimed the smaller one had superior low end! Otherwise we would have had matching amps. But yeah not bad at all! Claims 1400mw @ 32 ohms

  $55 on Amazon tube amp is tiny and hits harder than expected. Was unsure if i'd even bother trying it, until when I saw one of the reviewers had a set of SZ2k sitting next to his lil itty bitty Nobsound and said it delivered impressive SPL. I have been listening for about 30 minutes    I am...

Look at all the people who have been here for over a decade and use budget headphones out of TOTL amps here and love it. same holds true of stax. we keep trying to tell you, believe in the  power of the amp! 

Thanks a bunch. I guess the google ones were right then =)   i will post when i have mine with linear PSU, swapped opamps (probably burson v5i), russian tubes

Can anyone post a shot of the pcb? thanks

Phew, ok good. Yes the sony are very tip dependent. Hope they help you maintain a good fit. I use those Sonys on the Roses too

E100 is good but kind of fragile. Flat cable though (well triangle)

I feel bad for you talan bro, you got worse iem fitting problems than me! :( I guess i will have to give the 1more a shot?
