    Koss KPH40 Utility Review/Impressions

    Just posting this for posterity, an unbalanced 2.5mm to unbalanced 3.5mm cable works fine as a replacement cable for the KPH40. My cat recently destroyed my cable, and I ordered a Bose qc35 replacement cable to try to fix it. Sounds good and it only cost me $5. Turns out the pin out for the...

    Koss KPH40 Utility Review/Impressions

    There's a notion that because a pair of headphones is cheap, it can't be end game. But the KPH40s are my end game, at least for my home listening setup. I wasn't a huge fan of the KPH40 stock tuning, but it EQ's very nicely. You can take things to a whole new level if you delve into the dark...

    Grado GW100 v2 headphones in good to great condition. Still functions perfectly and doesn't really have any blemishes that I can tell. One of the original pads has a slight surface tear near the middle that does not go all the way through the pad. I will also include the yaxi pads I bought for...

    Koss KPH40 Utility Review/Impressions

    Sorry for the late response, but if you're still in need of info, you really shouldn't even try to use it. I'm not sure if there's any risk of damaging your amp or your headphones, but I initially tried it unmodified because I didn't know the wiring was different, and they sounded terrible. Just...

    Koss KPH40 Utility Review/Impressions

    I've recently successfully used a balanced cable with the KPH40. I bought a very short 2.5 to 2.5 trrs from ebay to use with my Qudelix 5k. I didn't have any issues with the connection being blocked by the rubber shroud over the headphone side connector, but I think it will depend on which cable...

    KEF M500/M200 Impressions Thread

      Depends what you are looking for. As others have stated, it is not the most secure fitting headphone. It does fine if you are stationary or only doing light exercise, but it is probably not best for a sports earbud. As I said, it all depends on what you intend to do with it. I chose it for...

    KEF M500/M200 Impressions Thread

    I'm going to join the hype train here and weigh in on the m200's I just got. I've only owned them for about 30 hours so far, but I am loving the sound. They have everything that I missed from my er-4s. Plentiful good bass, much wider sound stage, and a non fatiguing sound signature. Fit has been...

    ER4s or HF5 with Fiio e10

    I've never listened to Etymotic's impedance cable, but the one I have been using seems to do the job nicely, and the build quality is solid. This is the one I have: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Etymotic-Headphones-ER4P-ER4S-75-Ohm-Convertor-Cable-/280732730536?pt=US_Headphones&hash=item415cf984a8

    ER4s or HF5 with Fiio e10

    I have the E10 and er4p's, and I have quite enjoyed the setup. I prefer using them with my p to s impedance cable though. I find that using the bass boost switch in conjunction with the s version of the Etymotics makes for a very enjoyable listening experience, and the E10 has plenty of power...

    DIY er4p to er4s conversion cable

    Hmm, I hadn't thought of checking ebay. $20 isn't too bad, and it looks like they all have free shipping. I think that's what I will end up doing. Thanks for the advice. It's too bad none of them seem to be located in the U.S. though :(

    DIY er4p to er4s conversion cable

    Hey, I've owned some er4p's for a while now, and after reading some threads about the er4s's, I want to try one of those er4p to er4s conversion cables. $50 seems a little high for a cable and some resistors, though, so I am considering building my own conversion cable. I don't really know the...

    Problem with er-4p's

    Hmm, i contacted etymotic and asked me to send them in, but i forgot who i ordered it from, and hence I can't provide the proof of purchase they need to repair them. So I don't know what to do there. I've tried multiple sources, but the same problem persisted. Also, the soundtube seemed to be...

    Problem with er-4p's

    I have tried listening to the left phone in my right ear, but it still sounded muffled. I am out of ideas. I think I will just contact etymotic about the problem and see if they can help. Thanks for the advice ClieOS.

    Problem with er-4p's

    I've been enjoying my etymotic's for a while now, but I've recently been experiencing some problems with them. My left earbud seems a little muffled, and it can no longer produce bass. I've tried replacing the filter, but it didnt seem to do anything. In fact, I have tried two different filters...

    zamp v.3 as a headphone amp?

    I am new here, and I am gradually building my set up on a budget. Also, I don't know much about what makes a good setup. I need a good amp to power my HD 650's, and was considering the parasound zamp v.3 as an option. The only thing is, it only has a 1/8" headphone jack, rather than a 1/4". Will...
