On my ipod touch and sansa clip+ both jacks are broken and only play mono on the right headphone due to bending. Any advice on how to fix them? Also if this helps, i would suppose that the cause was using them in my pocket while walking with my HD595s (HD5x5 owners you know how the 1/4>>1/8...

For those of you that wear huge ugly headphones in public (opinion) Aside from enjoying your audio bliss, how can you stand the ridicule you receive?

I just ordered the HD595 and I'd like to ask just how big of a change I would like to expect in sound quality coming out of a laptop/ ipod touch 2g with 320k Mp3. Currently using Hd201 and Ksc75 Thanks for all replies:)

Hello, can someone who has got the Aune Mini USB DAC MK2 SE (or a previous version) and a reference-quality audio interface please publish RMAA or similar measurements of the headphone out, preferably also with various Ohm loads? Thank you.

There is no sound coming out of the left headphone, I think the cord was pulled. Is there any way to fix it myself? Warranty is not an option.

What's the difference between the three? I haven't experienced the 33/34 but so far the 35's sound terrible. Also is there any possible way to kramer mod the 35's?

So i ordered a pair of sennheiser HD555s and after reading some forum posts I realized that I might need an amp. but do I really? How much better is the sound quality with an amp? What im asking is, is the increase in sound quality so incredible that it justifies paying more than the cost of the...

I bought a new pair of Sennheiser HD555. Im planning to connect them to my TV using a simple RCA Y adapter, which goes from the regular red and white cables to a female mini jack on the other end. Will this be sufficient for good sound quality, or do I need some sort of in between device. Im...

I stream a lot of shows and movies from netflix but dont want to bother my roommate so I ordered a pair of Sennheiser HD555 headphones. They haven't arrived yet, but I realized that my TV doesnt have a headphone jack. I went out and bought an rca to mini jack cable, and now my earbuds work when...

Hi All   I'm trying to buy some headphones that I can play at very low volumes without the sound quality falling off a roof. I have a pair of igrado's which sound fantastic as soon as I turn them up uncomfortably loud, but at lower volumes are disappointing and loose all detail- my £15 pair...

Ok so i read to get a better seal on the IE8 you should wear them upside down > ok works perfectly. Then i read to make them fit better you should switch the cables from the left to the right one and just wear them the other way arround.   However when i do this i don´t get any sound from my...

Does it make sense to get a portable AMP (like the next Fiio) for inears in general? Exspecially the IE8 ?

Hey everyone,   I'm looking to get my first pair of nice headphones, with a budget of $50-$100.  I don't mind buying refurbished/open box items.  I prefer a natural, realistic, detailed sound that isn't too harsh.  I listen to a variety of genres: primarily vocal stuff (like Norah Jones...

Hi, I'm looking to buy a set of entry level earphones in Australia. Because of this forum I have been looking at mostly IEMs (it seems that information on normal earphones is scarce - does that mean there are no viable contenders in this category?). In particular I have been looking at things...

Hey guys, I'm about to start building a new PC after years of relying on laptops. Now that I have the funds to support my endeavor, I'm hoping to get some decent sound equipment, but don't know where I would get the most bang for my buck.  Suffice it to say that I'm still a newb at a lot of...

Over the past few months, I have been harvesting and archiving all the measurements of (mostly) headphones published by HeadRoom. Although this archive contains measurements that have since been removed, it probably lacks some older ones, too. It additionally includes the individual...

Hey, I always wanted to buy really great headphones for me, but I never did it because no one could help me. So I ask you guys, because you have made so much experience to find the right headphones for me. I don't want any in-ear headphones or something like that! But it should be portable...

Just wanted an appreciation thread, first of all for those who suggested I try out the ATH M50, and second of all to everyone (which is practically everyone) who advised anyone to burn in their headphones. Whether you believe burning in really reaps audible results, or you think that the process...

I've done a fair bit of research, and narrowed down my list to the A-700, M50, and SRH440 (though it's been recommended that if I can find a cheap SRH840, to jump for that instead). Now I'm to the point where I'm not sure if there's really going to be any discernible difference no matter what I...

So, I'm up for a new set of earphones, since the ones that bundled with Walkman NWZ-A818 (MDR-EX082, I guess!) just stopped working after two and a half years. These headphones I'm looking for now may cost up to 80€ (100 USD, 65 GBP). The main usage will be outdoors, train riding, etc, with...

Hello, having gently removed a lot of dried-up earwax with the accessory tool, the right earpiece is now much quieter than the left one. I can neither see any more earwax, nor explain this phenomenon. It was all right before I cleaned it. Has anyone else encountered this problem before or...
