Are there any Opera/classical fans out there? Does anyone have any recommendations for a good iem. I have etys er3sr. Just seeing if there is something better out there. I would like to keep it under 500 but I am also looking at the dunu zens. Anyone have anything else inbetween? I have a chord...

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could make a recommendation for full size heading for classical and opera music. I am look into to try to keep it under $300. Here are some things I am thinking maybe someone has had experience with any: Grado 225x - love the grado sound and have an old pair of...

Could really use some help here. Just got a new note 4 and wanted to get some new iem's for it. Used eyt's hf2&3 and loved them, but thought I would step it up a little. Also, have Monster Miles Davis trumpets, which I also love, but wanted something different and new and maybe a little less...

So I haven't bought a new iem's in a while. I have been using my ety h3's for years with my iphone, but just switched to a galaxy note 3 and I find them sounding too flat and unexciting. I don't know, with the iphone, their detail was just more exciting (I am sure that is because the iphone is a...

Trying to decide between the 2. I have had the hf3's for years, but my wife has commandeered them and I just moved to an android (galaxy note 3). I love the ety sound, but thought since I was buying something new I would try something new...was wondering if anyone had any opinions about to the...

Hello all, I'm am switching carriers and have a chance for a new phone. I have iPhone 5 (not s). I am thinking of going android, more specifically galaxy note 3. I really want the bigger screen and more customization and function I can get from android. However I am worried I may be disappointed...

I have a question, can you use an amp with a phone and still use headphones w/mic to answer calls and talk on the phone while it is plugged in through the amp (using the mic on the phones)?Or will the mic part not pass back through the phone with the amp? Thanks,

i know that grados aren't really considered the best for jazz typically (and i have a pair of k601's that i love for jazz). However, i love the grado sound and want to try them out. I listen to mainly jazz (classic stuff) an was wonering if anyone had experience with either of these and the...

I know this question has been asked before and have been searching around, but I have not seen a definitive answer. I am buying these as a gift for some of my friends (non-audiophiles) none of which have (or probably will have) an external amp. They are also mostly listening to music at 128k...

I am getting married and want to buy earphones/iem's for my groomsmen presents. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. Need to be something to please everyone. Would like to spend $50-60 (no less than $50, no more than $60) and would like to get the best I can. I don't think I need a mic...

Was looking for some advise. Does anyone think there is a difference in sound between having a removable cable verse a direct connection to the drivers. I ask because I have a pair of Proline 650's, which have the removable cable. A while back I bought a blue dragon cable form Moon Audio and...

Going to be doing some recabling this weekend (expecting my silver dragon cable from moon tomorrow). Does anywhere know where I could find cable pants (I believe thats what they are called) in nyc? I just thought to use them, I know I can just order them online, but I would like to start...

Looking for full size/portable headphones (non-iem) to use in my office. I listen to a lot of jazz and some rock and have an ibasso d2 boa that I use with my computer. I was thinking to get esw9 (maybe es7's if there isn't too big of a difference) or something similar in size (don't want...

I know everyone has different opinions and in the end its a matter of taste, but having a touch time deciding between the three and thought I would throw the question out there to see if anyone could help. They are both floating around the same $200 mark (my budget) online and I am really...

Which ones do you think would be best. I listen to about 70% jazz 30% rock. Going away in a day and was wondering what would be best. Both in my price range, but don't want to spend more. Will the s4's be good for jazz, I know they get a lot of praise here, but will they be to bassy for jazz. I...

Is the Headroom micro amp good to power/sound nice with my k601's as well as my Ultrasone's proline650, which aren't as hard to drive (and possibly a pair of beyer's that I am considering). Or is there something better in the price range. Can't go higher then $350 and don't want used (going to...

Have to repair a pair of headphones (full size, ultarsones). I was opening them up for some modifications and one of the connections came loose. I am OK with a solder iron, but haven't done a lot of headphone repair stuff. I was wonder what type of solder would be the best for this type of...

Not sure if this is the right place to put this but here it is anyway... Getting a bad shorting out sound from the right ear on my Ultrasone. What could it be and how can I fix it. I had opened them before to do some mods. Nothing electrical though, just putting some blutak on the back of the...

Trying to decide which ones to get...I have the HFI-580's like them a lot, but looking to step up. Listen to a lot of jazz and rock. Can't really find a lot of info on the Pro 650's. Does anyone have experience with either one? Possibly both? Thanks,

So, I want to buy a DAC for my Laptop. I want the DAC to use with my Audioengine A2's and my headphone amp. I am having a hard time finding a DAC with 2 RCA outputs, at least in my budget (no more then $200). My question is: could I buy a DAC with an intergraded headphone amp (like a Zero DAC)...

I am newbie, so I apologize if this is kind of stupid question... I know there are speaker amps and headphone amps, but does it make a difference for DACs. If I wanted to get a DAC for my computer and switch between using it for my computer speakers and my headphone amp, can I just get one to...

I am trying to decide which one would be better for me as they are both somewhat similar in price (I believe amazon has a discount going for them, though I am still trying to find the details). I listen to a lot of jazz, so I am not looking for anything bass heavy. was wondering if anyone had...

I am looking for some decent interconects, but don't want to spend a fortune ($25-35). Mainly looking for a mini to mini cable that is 6" or less, preferably less if they make them and not angled. I am kind of new to this. thanks,

Not sure if this is for this forum or the full-sized headphone forum would be better. But since I want these for portable use, I figured I would try here first... Has anyone tried the ATH-ES55. Are they anygood? Is there something better. Basically I want a good (prefferably closed) portable...

I recently ordered some items from Head-Direct. I was wondering if I live in NY, where are the items coming from. Do they come from somewhere here in the US locally or do they come from overseas? Just trying to figure how long it will take to get my order (because USPS tracking is a joke).
