I'm thinking about getting a pair of MA750i to replace my Westone UM2 due to damaged cable for the second time. By the sounds of it the build quality and durability will probably suit my slightly rough usage. I wonder if the MA750 is a step back in terms of sound quality (or just different) and...

Hi Headfi-er,   Anyone know if there's a place / store that can do repair work on my Westone headphone in London / in the UK? One side of my UM2 is intermediately cutting out due to a minor damage to the cabling towards the headphone plug end. On close inspection I can see one of the...

Bump!

I'm moving over to the Uk for two years & I'll need something portable as a replacement. I've been listening to my K701 + Aria Corda setup for quiet a few years now. I'm looking at getting a pair of in-earphones, probably straight out from a iphone 3G or from a notebook with no amp. I...

Great album! "Dawn of the Dead" & "Epic Last Song" are just two of the stand out tracks!

It's like comparing a bike with a sport car

I have to agree with james444, because I compared my w950 with my brother's 4G ipod (20GB U2edition) and my dad's 1G nano (2GB), all with the same tracks and with their respective standard headphone, and I can tell you the sony is actually a little better. It's only when you pair the ipod with...

I've own the W950i since last November, wow nearly half a year already! From the stock earbuds, they are bass heavy but not much else. Then I got a pair of v moda vibe, was travel around Europe for a month using them. It really made a world of difference, I had the eq set to dance and I...

I've been using my new W950i for nearly a month now and have pretty much worked out the pros & cons of this baby! Overall the phone is very well styled & all the buttons are well laid out. As a designer myself, I know how much effort it takes to make something that looks good aesthetically...

+1 from Sydney. Well, we are only 3hrs apart

Coming from a pair HD570, which was super comfortable the K701 took sometime getting used to. But it’s getting better with more listening and crucially wearing. I must admit I should leave before it gets too late

Hi everyone newbie from Down Under here. First up, I have to confess I'm a serious lurker! Even though I visit this site at least twice a week, the last time I posted was back in 2002 I decided at the start of the year to give my listening experience an overhaul and invest some money on my...

I know Australia is not a very good place to buy headphones and even worst for amps (hard to find!) But since I do happen to be living in Sydney, I was just wondering if anyone can tell me where I can find some decent places to splash out more of my hard earn money! (on some new amps for my...

I don't hate them, and there are some other people who don't hate them. (I got a pair and I try very hard to find people who has a good word for them) It's nice to know I only paid about USD $95 for them, but maybe I should have gone for those HP 890 that I keep seeing in Sydney for USD $70.

I recently got myself a new pair of Sennheiser HD 570 (My first ever pair) from Spain, while I was there for my holiday. (I've been looking around back in Sydeny before and many of the Senns were a lot more expensive than in Europe) I don't know what was wrong with me but for some reason i...
