Full size equivalent of RE400?
Does anyone have experience with the RE400 IEM that can recommend a full sized headphone that sounds extremely similar? I've heavily used the RE400 for a couple months now, and I'll have to crown it as my favorite sounding headphone to date. The only thing that I can remember coming close is the...- Katun

MA900 Review | The HD598 Killer
Meet and Greet: Just a quick refresher for those who already forgot what the MA900 is; it’s one of Sony’s more recent headphones and uses 70mm angled drivers. Styled after its predecessor, the F1, (or hints at the SA5000, but more so the F1) the MA900 is Sony’s current open flagship headphone...- Katun

(WARNING) Fake PX100-II's on the market (w/ comparison to genuine)
This probably wouldn't effect me as much as it does, but the PX100-II's are one of my favorite headphones. Appearance differences WITH the need of comparison: 1) Entire black appearance of the headphone is more sparkly on the genuine pair, while the fake has more of a semi-shiny black...- Katun

Do orthos have a life expectancy?
I've been longing to own the HE-500 again, but I fear some type of driver failure in the short future. I find while shopping around and trying many headphones is fun, it just isn't getting me anywhere realistically. I've really wanted to buy something more expensive and just kind of...- Katun

Schiit Relays? (Advice needed)
Question for those who have lots of amp knowledge. My Asgard says it has a relay that mutes the output for "10 seconds when turned on" and "immediately when turned off". My main question is, should I play it safe and not plug in my headphone for 10 seconds and then unplug it before I...- Katun

Question for "Asgard" users ~
(Guess this can apply to any Schiit owner) So I just got my Asgard today, and the volume knob is suspicious. Laying flat, rotating the volume knob is smooth until 3:00. And then from 3:00 - 5:00 (max volume) there is significantly more resistance accompanied by a scrapping sound...- Katun

W2 vs W4 | Comparison & Review
Westone 2 ($250 Dual Driver) Westone 4 ($450 Quad Driver) Build, design, and comfort: Comparing the W2 and the W4 to each other reveals something quite shocking. The W4 is literally twice as thick as the W2, not to mention taller and wider as well. In other words, it’s a mammoth of...- Katun

Got my Westone 2 today! Better than my old W4. (UPDATE)
So first I'd like to say, I bought the RE262 about a week ago. And let's just say, my faith has been rekindled in IEMs. Now only one problem: I simply could NOT get an equal fit with any of the tips (my L and R ear canals never agree with each other). I even bought the MEelec 10 pack of...- Katun

Westone 4 = Disappointment
Alright, so I got these today. I admire the packaging, that's for sure. The tip choice is even more diverse then what Monster gives you with the Pro Gold. Plenty of tips, sizes, and types to satisfy any listener. I tried the oval grey tips and found those to be a perfect fit. Speaking of...- Katun

Expensive IEMs and Traveling...

Micro Stack + HD650 = No Improvement?

HD600 vs HD650 - Initial Thoughts
Alright, so I've been comparing these two for the past hour. So far, I'm liking the HD600 quite a bit more. But first, I should start off saying they both sound very similar. Main differences include the HD600 having a larger soundstage, more neutral and balanced sound, and being more...- Katun

Use EXTREME caution when removing HiFiMAN earpads!
