Anybody have any cable replacement recommendations for a Fostex T50? I've purchased a few V-Moda cables...they used to work great. I've had to replace a few because they seem to fail if they're removed from the 3.5 to 6.5 adapter plug a little to harshly. The last 2 I bought though just...

Does the Modi or Uber2 version of the Modi ship with a USB cord? Emailed Shiit, but thought I might get a faster response here. If not, I want to get one heading this way via Amazon.

I currently own an audio-gd NFB 15. Before that I had an Audio-gd Sparrow. The Sparrow died so I replaced it with the NFB 15. I like that both were combo units, but I never really utilized the optical in on the Sparrow. I do with the 15. NFB 15 connected to computer via USB, Big screen...

Looking for some help getting NFB 15 drivers to install on a new computer. The unit works fine on the Compaq with Windows 7 I own. Successfully installed the drivers twice on that. Once when I received the unit new, and once after I reset the computer to factory. Can't get the drivers to...

My Audio GD Sparrow just died so I'm soliciting some recommendations to replace it.   I'm thinking about getting the Modi and Magni from Shiit because that's basically all I need, I've never used the optical input on my Sparrow but I like that it's available. What the Sparrow doesent have is...

  Chris Whitley ~ Living With The Law   Lot's to choose from in 91, but this is easily my favorite. This is just good music. There is not a weak track on the entire record IMO. Lyrically Whitley penned some great songs, and he can sing. Musically, if you like a blues stew of sorts, Whitley...

Thought I would start a thread seeing what people have on order or in pre-order status.   Releasing May 22nd     Sonny Landreth - Elemental Journey     Tedeschi Trucks Band - Live: Everbodys Talkin (2 CD set)   Releasing June 5th     Joe Bonamassa - Driving...

I had to laugh…I looked up fetish in the dictionary and it’s defined as an object of irrational reverence or obsessive devotion. That probably more aptly describes my feelings toward my Grado’s; or just a headphone fetish in general. When I first stumbled across Head Fi though, I never imagined...

I’m curious as to what sort of impressions those of you that have added wood shells to your Grado’s can share about the sonic improvements you’ve netted.  I’m guessing from the traffic in the SR60-mod thread and the post your Grado mod thread that a fair number of folks got wood.   I’m...

What headphones will you be wearing when the rapture comes?

Just curious if anyone else uses their local Public Library as a source for music?  

...use with my Clip.   Right now I'm using Porta Pro's which I like, just want something a little different. Most of my music is bluesy classic rock sort of stuff, some acoustic too. My main phones (home rig) are Grado HF2's. I'm open to something more neutral and analytical as opposed to...

Who's thinking about what, just curious. I've been thinking about a Fostex T50RP for a while. Lot's of thoughts coalescing together as to why. First off I imagine it's because it can be had for not a whole lot of money. Second a thought SLaRe posited in the HF2 review impressions thread that I...

I've been listening to Grado's almost exclusively for almost a year. Started out with a pair of SR60's because after reading several threads and posts here on head fi, discerned they were great entry level phones and also quite possibly the best brand for rock. I've had other Grado's that have...

I need to get a pair of wireless headphones for my Dad to watch TV. He's older and lost hearing in one of his ears and probably has some hearing loss in the other one. Anyway he compensates by turning the volume up on the TV which drives my Mom nuts. So I'm thinking wireless phones would be a...

OK maybe the cords to short for a home rig, and maybe there are some issues with the headband, but I dont have a whole lot of hair, despite what my avatar pic might indicate..   Got my Porta Pro's plugged into the Sparrow and they are rockin it.   Lot's of tight quick bass, mids are...

I'm seriously considering biting the bullet and getting a pair of these but there seems to be a school of thought out there that describes them as laid back.   But if the bass is better and tighter than the 225's wouldnt that translate into more dynamics from the percussion and make the...

I’ve been thinking about a new source. I have a uDAC now and it pretty much suits my purposes. I’ve considered a dedicated amp but think that might be a little more than I need. The uDAC 2 apparently has a better amp for the headphone out than the original; and the DAC section is supposedly...

  I havent even got my new Grados yet, a set of 225's winding their way to me as I type this; and already I'm thinking maybe I should have gotten the ATH M50's.   So does anybody have both or listened to both?   I did the search thing and there doesnt seem to be a thread comparing and...

Physical burn in or mental burn in of new "cans"?   That's the burning question for my first ever post.   My primary phones are Grado SR60i's that replaced some Some Sony MDR150's. When I first got the Grado's I couldnt tell much of a difference between them and the Sony's. The more I...
