Would there be any complications if I use my friends Trade Me account to buy the ticket?

  I am still considering the HD600's as an alternative to the HE-400's (if I do decide to lean this way). I can't say for sure but, a faster phone is probably better for me.   Thank you for the link! Mad Dogs are also looking more and more likely although I am worried about their...

  Thank you :) I have asked in the Mikros thread if they know any ways of getting it but I think I'll live if I miss out on them.     Quote:   Sorry, probably a noob question but what do you mean by they approximate the new target curve?

Hey guys,   Has anyone had any experience using eBay to buy headphones?   Thanks.

So I was just about to pull the trigger on the Mikros 90s only to find out that I can't find reliable way to get them in NZ. I could ship from ebay but that would cost me another $80, almost the same as the phones so it really doesn't feel worth it. So now, all my money is pretty much focused...

So I made my mind up on these, however there is a slight problem. Does anyone know a site that ships these to NZ? Amazon doesn't, the one I could find from an NZ site costs $65 more and has an unreliable product warning and the Sonic Electronix site are out of stock. Anyone aware of other...

Oh my gosh I'm so sorry I got mixed up, when I said RE-400 I meant HE-400 sorry about that!

Thank you :) What about the RE-400s? I've heard they require more amping so I'm not sure if C&C BHs will be enough.

So general consesus indicates that the Hifimediy Sabre USB DAC and C&C BH amp work well with the Mikros, but would they be powerful enough to use on other headphones such as the RE-400 and Grado SR225is? (This is basically the last thing I'm trying to work out before making my decision.)  ...

I'm incredibly indecisive but I think I've narrowed it down significantly. I emailed a nearby store and can have a listen to the NAD HP50s and make a decision about comfort.   However I also have another option which could preferable; getting the Mikros with a relatively cheap amp and DAC and...

I've crossed Amperior, Momentums and Shures off my list. My main concern is that the Mikros 90s might be too revealing for poor quality recordings (currently investigating this). Also the Philips Fidelio x1, Senn HD600 and HD650s are going for relatively cheap, anyone think they're worth looking...

Hey guys,   I was wondering if anyone had any experience pairing these up with the Hifimediy Sabre USB dac? Also are the comfort problems really so bad that numerous people end up returning them?

  Yup living in Auckland, but I'm a student so my transportation options are very limited, so i haven't been able to get there. Also where can I get the tickets? The trade me link is closed.  

  My sources will be an iPod video (rockboxed), iPod touch 3rd gen and my laptop (will almost always be used with this). Is it worth getting both an amp and DAC?

I'm extremely interested but don't have much experience in audio so this could be a great opportunity. Unfortunately, I am looking at buying some headphones (although nothing too expensive) and this could lead to a horrendous outcome on my wallet. Has anyone indicated they're bringing any mid-fi...

Hey guys,  I'm relatively new to head-fi (although I joined a while back) and was just wondering what happens at these meets. Also if i'm able to make it would there be any obligation to bring your own equipment?    Cheers.

Seriously considering these now. By mods are you referring to changing the cable and getting an amp/DAC? If I plan on using this from a laptop am I right in assuming a DAC may serve more of a purpose? (I'll stick with my GR07s as portables)

Because of the price (and all your hype) I'm extremely tempted to get these. If I do, would it be worth getting an amp/DAC (thinking FiiO E7) or should a new cable be the main focus? I am planning on using this mainly at home.  

Okay so this thread has left me rather confused as to whether or not I should get these. I love the sound of my GR07 mkII's but want to get a headphone so this looks like a good option plus it's really cheap at the moment. But I listen to post hardcore and metalcore so even though everything I...

Thanks, I'm trying to find a place to test out the Amperiors. Have you had any experience with the Mikros or FC300?

Hey everyone, so firstly I'll apologise for making another one of these threads but I've spent a few days searching through the forums but due to the numerous factors which I need to consider I figured it would be beneficial to make a thread. Firstly, this is my first foray into headphones so...

Hey guys I was just wondering if I could get some advice as to whether or not I should get the RE0s.  I currently have the Meelec CX21 but I want to upgrade and I'm tempted to try an analytical IEM  before jumping in and paying $200 for something like the GR07.  My music sources will be an...

Sorry for the double post, just thought i should say, i bought the CX21 this weekend for $20 and $3 off shipping! No regrets there, but now i have to wait 2-4 weeks.

Quote: Okay this i may be able to help you with in the bass department, if you want bass and don't mind muddled mids i would say head for the MEElectronics M31. I was recently reading a review of it and i quote;    "I am a bloody bass-head who like to feel as if a sub-woofer is...

Quote: Ok thank you for clearing up the mp4nation shipping, if it means i just have to wait that's fine considering my PL21s are still working so i am in no rush.  Also i too hope the M1 is simply out of stock as i was planning on getting that. Thanks for clearing up my confusion about...
