    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...

    Browser freezes when PM message box pops up

    I'm using Mozilla, Windows 7.   Once a PM notice pops up on screen, the entire browser freezes. I am unable to exit the box, close the browser entirely, or even look at other tabs.   Been happening for about the past week, as far as I know.

    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...

    (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...

    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...

    RTF isn't working

    All of my editing options have disappeared and it won't let me access my settings to double check the format.   EDIT: Seems to be working now, but it's kinda been a hit or miss recently. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    The "HD625" Throughout this review, I'll explain why I appreciate this headphone to the extent I do, and how it competes with more exquisite offerings from Sennheiser, as well as from different manufacturers. Not to mention, with me finally getting my hands on an original PX100, I can now...

    FXC51 Review | Another Hidden Gem

    Introduction: (The secret behind how the FXC51 can get so amazingly good)   Okay, so I’ll admit this is going to be a tough review. Mainly because I’m not judging the sound off of its stock signature. Yes, that’s right, this review is based off of what you can transform this IEM into using...

    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...

    Expensive IEMs and Traveling...

    Okay, so here's the problem.   I've always loved listening to music anywhere but at my desk. Unfortunately, I would always pool my money into a desktop system instead of a portable system because I knew my home rig would always be safe. But even to this day, I probably use my portable rig...

    Micro Stack + HD650 = No Improvement?

    Alright, so I've been really frustrated for the past hour or so.   You know, comparisons going as normal. HD600 vs HD650. Q701 vs HD600. HD650 vs D2000. Then all of a sudden, I wanted to try the HD650 unamped, just to see if it sounded as good as it did amped. So, I pull it out of my Micro...

    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...

    So, I got my Q701 today...

    My very first "serious" headphone was the K701. I didn't really like it. My current and most present headphone is the Q701. I absolutely love it.   Well, it kinda started out with the K601. One of the members here was kind enough to loan me his K601. Turns out, I actually really liked. And...

    So I kinda modded my HE-500...

    I just hope it does nothing to the sound...   So, today I had the revelation that I still owned the HE-4. I thought to myself, "Well, I tried swapping cables, but what about other parts?" Well turns out, I admired the grills on the HE-4 greatly. Instantly, I had a fabulous idea! Turns out, I...

    Use EXTREME caution when removing HiFiMAN earpads!

    Today, I got curious and wanted to see what it looked like underneath the earpad on my HE-4. Well, after I took a look, I attempted to get the earpad on with no success. In fact, I snapped the super cheap plastic ring underneath the earpad, rendering it unable to attach back on. When I heard...
