      Thanks for this, I used the promo on some Gemini HSR-1000s for $35+tax, apparently these are Takstar Pro 80 rebrands.

    Which version of DT-770 is this?

    If the 770 Premium is like the 880 Premium, then the impedance might be imprinted on the plug, assuming it still has the original cable/plug

    Has anyone tried one of those DIY Yuin earphones on ebay?

    I ordered one of these DIY PK3 from dasetn a few weeks ago, arrived today. It looks like the PK2 that dasetn is offering though, same Brainwavz/Visang-style cable. It came in a Denon storage case with a couple pairs of earbud foams.   First impressions of the sound so far are not very...

    There's also a chance of those used units being the old version with the bulky modular cable. Still a great deal at $79 though

    Samson SR850 (Superlux OEM) Review: A $50 Budget Champion.

    Quote: New revision maybe? The SR950, which was released not long ago, uses similar pads. Maybe they changed out the SR850's pads to match

    Superlux HD330..29euros gives you A LOT! ( Review )

    Quote: Agree with you here, IMO it sounds way too warm and congested with the stock pads. Definitely improves with a switch to velour pads though. I find Hifiman velours, although stiff and somewhat uncomfortable, drop the midbass warmth significantly while still keeping a decent amount...

    Review by 'kidcharlemagne' on item 'new version SMSL sAp-4s portable power headphone amplifier black'

    Not much info about the SAP-4S on the web, this was a purchase I made mostly based on curiosity; there's only a single review about it in English that seemed pretty positive so I went for it. Packaging is a nice little white box with relevant logos. When opened you're greeted by various neat...

    Quote: Mine was brand new, the seal on the bottom of the box was still intact, and they function fine, so YMMV I guess. You could always try to return or exchange them.

    Superlux has New Headphones: HD662MKII & HD681MKII

    Superlux has New Headphones: HD662MKII & HD681MKII

    Received the black HD681 evo earlier today (thanks a bunch Doyen+Audiohipster), some pics -     Looks like some stiff felt was added in front of the driver, I guess to tame the treble. Venting scheme has changed abit with the new design too. Also note the three screws; i've tried...
