    Where to buy HD 598 1/4" to 3.5?

    Hey,   I lost my stock Sennheiser HD 598 1/4 to 3.5 adapter, and now that I'm getting a new amp without a 1/4 input, I'm gonna need a new one. I googled around and couldn't find the stock one for sale anywhere. Right now I'm looking at this Sennheiser adapter, but before dropping $22 on a...

    Badass deal on audioengine a5+ for Canadians!

    Amazon.Ca has got a better deal going on for the audioengine a5+s than I've seen for any American site which is incredibly surprising. I already ordered mine on friday, however they haven't been shipped yet. I think the price went up since I ordered by $10 but still an amazing deal nonetheless...

    Hello everyone, I've had my Sennheiser HD 25-1 II's for quite some time now and I think that it's time for a cleanin'! I heard after you clean the velour it becomes way more comfortable and sounds better somehow.   So how exactly should I do this? With Google, I came up with half of the...

    Who's that one artist you're obsessed with at the moment?

    We all know you got one, you torrent their discography but ended up buying every single album from bandcamp even though you know you're going to get tired of them in a month or so. For me: MiMOSA Genre: Not really sure to be honest. Supposedly "Glitchstep". I just classify it under...

    HD 25-1 ii -- Velour vs Pleather

    Hey guys, I recently got the Sennheiser HD 25-1 ii's and I'm loving them. The only question I have is how do the ear pads affect sound? I'm using the pleather for now but would switching to the velour affect sound at all? Thanks, Jason

    Burning in with pink noise?

    Hey Head Fi'ers. I've had my HD 598's for a while now (I probably have 100 hours of use into them, gaming, music, and movies) and I was wondering if I should burn them in with pink noise. If so, for how long? How loud should it be? Is this site's pink noise good enough? Should I burn in my HD...

    Hey guys, I'm going to have around $200 to spend on audio equipment soon.

    Advantages to using a headphone stand?

    Hey, are there any advantages to having a headphone stand aside from space saving? I really want this stand but I live on an island with no Ikea and I probably won't be able to go to one any time soon unless I can convince my parents to go in Los Angeles. As for now, are my headphones fine just...

    I just got Sennheiser 598's, and I listen to lots of bass heavy music (Techno, no dumbstep though.) and I was wondering what the chances of the headphones blowing are (by that I mean, too much bass or too loud, then after that the 'phones sound like crap for everything) While on the topic of...

    Hey Head-Fi'ers, I was looking at headphones a while ago and was told that the Sennheiser 598's could be bought for only $180 instead of the price shown on the website ($250), if you order by phone.

    Does this setup sound good for gaming, music, and tv?

    After a bit of research I've decided with the Polk Audio RM95 Home Theatre Speaker System, with the Onkyo TX-SR508 Receiver. The only question I still have is, what is a good subwoofer to get?
