Has anyone had this before / does anyone know how to fix it? My speakers are the Swan M200 mkii's and it had static probably 10 months after buying it. I sent it in but they couldn't find what was wrong with it so I just lived with it since it wasn't too significant (though I wasted $40 for...

Hello. I've been on this forum for awhile and have been through quite an amount of headphones considering my age aka the amount, or lack thereof, of money I have. I've found what I presume to be my perfect portable CIEM, the Westone ES3X (and the ES5 I presume due to it technically being an...

Basically been looking through tons of headphones but still don't know what to get. Input would be appreciated.   For reference, my current headphones are the FA-011 and the Westone ES3X. Current speakers are the Swan M200 mkii. Not much of a fan of the FA-011 anymore; it is fun but it's...

I've been looking for the past few days/weeks (had my eyes set on the Z1060/F806, but couldn't find anything about it's SQ with custom in-ears. Using Westone ES3X) but currently in a dilemma as my phone (Samsung Stratosphere) basically just died in a fall. The phone's screen is now currently...

I've been using headphones for awhile (HD25-ii for on-the-go, FA-011 at home w/ E9 whenever I feel like using it though usually just use my M200mkii's. More recently been using MP8320s though just because they're more convenient than using HD25-ii's), and would like to switch because they're...

Which one do you guys think is better? Mainly looking for sound quality (I'm using a Samsung Stratosphere). From what I can tell, PlayerPro sounds better than Poweramp but poweramp is more popular.. Haven't tried UberMusic yet

Does anyone know which would be better? Space is not an issue, and they both run nearly the same ($250 for SS-B3000 + Dayton amp, ~$200 for the B1000 + Dayton, while the Swans are ~$347 after shipping, but they're currently including the H2s with it right now).   Thanks.

I've had the HD25-iis for awhile along with the M50s before that which both totally satisfied me for my genres (the HD25's more :)), but I'm wanting something for more at-home as the HD25s aren't that great in comfort..   The genres I listen to are anything from Drum & Bass / Dubstep /...

Friend is looking for headphones, but she wants WESC/Urbanears/etc so.. any recommendations for indie, some house, and some trance? She listens to indie the most and occasionally the other 2. Wants them to look good too. Full-sized.   Please note that I've been searching (and still am...

Also, must be available on Amazon as I have prime and I do not want to pay shipping / tax :).   Basically, my preferred genres are various EDM (psy/trance, techno, house, dubstep, etc). Was looking at the 4~500 thread but that is way too much for me. Also, I looked at the multi-IEM review...

So recently I decided my right angle plug was way too annoying to use with my iPod Touch + E11 LoD'd since I put it in my jeans pocket, so I want to recable it :).   I'm thinking of using Redco as they have the cheapest shipping (being ~$5 for USPS). The only thing is I don't know what I...

So I've been eligible to upgrade for a long while, but I'm wondering whether or not I should get an iPhone 4S to pair LoD'd w/ my E11. Currently use an iPod Nano + my HD25s.   Would you guys do it? Not really a fan of apple due to how closed in it is (I will be jailbreaking it though) and...

I think this could be the wrong section, but I don't know. Does anyone know of any headphone stores in Southern California, specifically Orange County? The closest Guitar Center doesn't allow people to test headphones and they're only on display for people to see how they feel. That and...

So I've been looking for headphones that I'd use for both gaming and music at home (I currently have HD25s for on the go), and I have no idea what to pick :). I'm not too sure whether or not I would like open or closed, but I kind of want open because I need to hear if anyone is calling me...

Which would you guys prefer? I've hated Apple for quite awhile now, though I won't get into that, unless you guys request it or something.   But then I figured that since I'm going to hack my device anyways (and honestly, if you guys care (I don't know if you guys do or not honestly, haven't...

I believe it got bent during shipping due to how it was like.. turned in the box rather than being centered.   If you can't figure out what I'm referring to, look at the bottom left of the.. sliding thing and compare it to the right.   Can anyone pinpoint the exact spot where it's bent...

Which would you guys prefer? Apparently the HD25-1 ii Adidas is in like new condition, never worn, but box has been opened (from Electronics Expo). I also heard that Electronics Expo shipping is quite literally crap. The normal HD25-1 ii I'll be ordering off e-bay if I settle with those and...

So.. Hi :). I'm currently looking for an upgrade cause I'm selling my M50s (honestly, I don't know why really, but one reason is because I'm selling it for $5 more than I bought it for, and then it's insanely huge still to be portable even with its swivel features..). Been looking for rugged...

"Upgrading" from an ATH-M50 so.. yeah. 3rd pair of closed backs :).   Mainly looking for bass, possibly soundstage, comfort, isolation, build quality / durability, overall SQ, and portability. Don't know if there's much else. Also rather have the better looking headphones due to I'll be...

Just recently got a pair of AD700s and noticed that within 3~5 minutes, my ears start aching (like, the insides) and sometimes I get a minor headache that resolves itself after I take off the headphones. Is there any mod to fix this? Don't even know why it's happening. I even find my M50s FAR...

Does anyone know whats more preferred between these two usually? I've searched for quite awhile and couldn't find any direct comparisons even though these are both at ~$200 USD.   For myself, I currently don't have a headphone that requires amping (only have an M50 at the moment, and going...

So like, basically, I'm currently deciding between:   Open Headphones for at home + Portable headphones for on the go   or   my M50s for both.   I do love sound stage, but at the moment, both my DT770s (returning) and my M50s look insanely large on my head (though the M50s are...

Just as a heads up, yes, I have been searching. Anyone have experience with either? I was nearly 100% sold on the M50's but the only thing I don't like is how it doesn't have an easily replaceable cord like the SRH750DJs (going to get the coiled M50 version by the way). Then I searched up more...

Hello. I just recently joined head-fi after lurking / searching for hours after hours over days and have recently just settled on the DT770 Premium 250OHMs with the FiiO E7. I was wondering if there was anything better than the DT770s as I don't feel too satisfied with them even after being...
