    Help - need new pads for HD280's

    Anyone know where I could find some replacement ear pads for a pair of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's? The only place I can find that seems to sell them is B&H Video but they are out of stock. Thanks for the help.

    Will anyone here be interested in SEX (headphone amp)?

    Just curious if anyone thinks that they will spring for Doc B's new headphone amp kit? Sounds like it will go for $300 or so. I don't have much personal experience with his other kits but there aren't too many people who don't consider the vast majority of them "high bang fpr the buck" products...

    I need a MP3 player that can read Compact Flash Cards.

    I am a photographer and I need an inexpensive portable hard drive to read my compact flash cards. There are several 20+GB portable hard drives that are available that cost $200-250. If I am going to buy one though, I thought it would be nice to also have a portable MP3 player. The MP3 player...

    Has anyone compared a PPA to other amps?

    Have the designers or anyone else compared a PPA to some of the pretty nice commercial amps that one can buy for the price of the PPA parts? I can't seem to find any information on comparisons. I like to do DIY projects just for the fun of it and am intrigued by the PPA but I already use an...

    My Earmax Pro - HD-600 experience.

    I was looking for a very high quality headphone amp for my HD-600’s and decided to get an Earmax pro. They were hard to get this winter. I waited for 2-3 months for mine but got it a couple weeks ago. I have about 30-40 hours on it now and am very pleased. I put a couple pics on yahoo of...

    Interesting review of the Shanling CDP

    Here is a link to an interesting review of the beautiful Shanling CDP. http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/gen...es/186697.html I am glad I didn't try to order one. It also makes one wonder about some of the other recent Chinese amps that have been the hot topic here recently. I think that I...

    Anyone tried to make a DIY Senn replacement cable?

    I own HD600's and it sure looks like they could benefit from a better cable but it is hard for me to justify spending $100+ for a commercial replacement. I would also like to have a shorter high quality cable for portable use (2 ft or so) which does not apper to be available commercially. I...

    Best place to purchase an Earmax pro?

    It looks like there are very few dealers for this amp in the US. Does anyone know of anyone that sells this except (http://www.audioadvancements.com) and (http://www.theme-gifts.com/earprovactub.html). Has anyone bought one for less than the $750 list price? I will be using it with HD-600's. Thanks.

    How would a MG Head OTL compare to a CMOY.

    I use a stock CMOY with my Senn HD-600's for primarily portable use and find it to be very good although it is a definite step below the quality of my speaker system. I have been considering getting a MG Head OTL (with tube upgrade) for the times I use the 600's at home. How much improvement can...
