Hi guys, so I recently picked up a like new in box pair of Denon D2000s here on the forums and absolutely love them.  It has been brought to my attention that Denon might've changed the drivers on the D2000 line sometime in the last few years before discontinuing them.  Can someone tell me how I...

Hi guys, I have a quick question that I was hoping some of you guys can shed some light upon.  I'm currently in the process of helping my cousin find a good dac upgrade to his current system.  He is currently using an Asus Xonar STX soundcard, and while he is happy with it, he is looking for an...

Hey guys, just picked up a pair of AD900s and just as I remembered with the AD700, the clamp force is a bit big for my head.  Has anyone here successfully increased the clamp force on these headphones?  I'm a bit hesistant to juset straightup bend the wired headband since I don't want to risk...

Hey guys, quick question for those of you who had/still have the original Audio-GD compass.  I see a couple of these floating around on the classifieds here and was wondering how they stack up against today's DAC/amp combos such as the O2/ODAC, Aune T1, and Magni/Modi stack.  I know there were...

So I'm very close to picking up a pair of DT990 pro's and am a bit worried about how bright the treble are on these things.  I was hoping maybe someone who owned or used these can help give me some reference on exactly how bright the treble are on these things.   I have owned a pair of Denon...

Hey guys,   Unfortunately, after 1 year of loyal service, my trusty pair of Brainwavz M4's have eaten the dust (my fault, T.T).  I'm looking to get a new pair of affordable IEM's and have been lurking a bit on here and see that lots of people love the Vsonic GR02 bass editions, and noticed...

Hi, I was looking to get an affordable cheap DAC/amp and have noticed these 2 floating around on ebay.  A quick search on head-fi here shows a favorable review for the U2 plus but I wasn't able to find more info on it.  Has anyone here had any experience with either of these DACamps?  The U2Plus...

Hey guys, I was wondering what are some DACs that you guys out there are pairing with your O2's?  I currently have a Fiio D3 that I'm gonna pair up with my O2 when it arrives, but was wondering if there were any better affordable DACs that would pair well with the O2.    Thanks guys!

Hey guys,   Finally just picked up an EF2A and am really excited about changing out the tubes once it arrives.  I was wondering if any of you guys out there can give me a cliffnote version on some of the other tubes I can use with this amp and basically what I can expect from each one.  I'm...

Hi guys, I recently acquired a pair of Denon D1100's, and although they sound great, I find the bass slightly overpowering at times.  I saw on a few posts here before where some people have mentioned that with some EQ-ing, the D1100 can sound almost as good as the D2000.  I was wondering if...

Hi guys, this isn't meant to be an advertisement or anything, but I wanted to ask any MMA fans here on head-fi to donate some money towards the making of the Jens Pulver documentary project. I've already donated 25 dollars, and unfortunately the project is still over 7,000 short which has to be...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a decent low-priced pair of closed headphones to use as portables for when I'm at school. Was looking around at the HD228 but haven't been able to find one for that low of a price. I noticed that amazon has a refurbed HD218 for 33 dollars shipped and was wondering if...

I couldn't find any direct comparisons between these two amps, but I figured that since they both use AD8397 opamps, is there really a difference in performance? I'm still a bit new to this whole amp thing, and was wondering if someone out there has owned both of these amps and can give me a...

Hi guys, I was wondering if there were any full sized headphones out there with a similar sound signature to Yuin PK3's. I've had a pair of SR60i's which I found a bit too bright and fatiguing after listening for long periods. The Yuin PK3 however, has the perfect sound signature for the type of...

Hi guys, I just got a Sansa Fuze recently and noticed that the volume on it seems to be a bit weaker than on my old ipod mini. What volume do you guys typically listen to it at? I'm using my sennheiser HD485 (32 ohm) on them and have to have the volume on it at around 75% to achieve the same...

Ah! i forgot and accidentally put my new sansa fuze into my pocket along with my keys and now have some light scratches over the screen. Does anyone here have any recommendations on any scratch removing solution that actually works?
