Stupid question, I know. But I tried cleaning some of the parts of my Sennheiser HD650 and only afterwards did I realize it might have been a stupid move.   I wiped down the headphone plug with rubbing alcohol, then I did the same with the detachment points. If you're familiar with the 650's...

My pair of Audio-Technica ATH-CK100PRO just arrived but I seem to be having some kind of static issue. I'll try to describe the static issue and if anyone has any idea at all of how I can get rid of it, it would be great.   The static is constant even if no music is on. If the volume is turned...

I understand that I need one of these:   http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10218&cs_id=1021804&p_id=5611&seq=1&format=2   in order to hook up the RCA slots on the E9 to the headphone jack on the TV. But does this also make use of the E7? Since the E7 is run on USB...

Hello,   For anyone that has experience with these two combo's, would I be seeing a notable difference going to the Schiit Magni Amp with Modi DAC from a FiiO E9 Amp with E7 DAC?   If it matters, I am using a Sennheiser HD650. I've been using the FiiO combo for the past 5 years but I feel...

I have a problem. I have a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-ESW9 but the cable is tangled up and won't go back to it's original shape.   I think the problem is that I had stored in a case like this one:     I had the ESW9 in there and the wire stored in a circular bundle in the middle of the...

As the title suggests, I'm wondering if anyone could give me some input on what the best noise isolating Audio-Technica earphone is.   I'm a fan of Audio-Technica's line of headphones and was interested in trying one of their earphones but I'd prefer something with really good isolation...

As the title suggests....would the Little Dot MK V be an upgrade to the Fiio e7 DAC and Fiio e9 Amp? I've used the Fiio combo for about two years with my Sennheiser HD650's and was wondering if anyone had compared the two?   Would the Little Dot MK V be a big upgrade over the Fiio combo when...

  Could anyone with knowledge of fake Audio-Technica ATH-ES7's take a look at these images and tell me if I have a fake here? Some parts of them match the authentic images in the ATH-ES7 thread but some parts seem...fake as well.   The cable rests going into the headphones are both...

As the title mentions, can the wind damage open headphones? I have a pair of Sennheiser HD650's and I'm worried about this one time I used them outside in extremely strong blowing wind. By strong, I mean the kind of wind that makes trees shake and move...the kind that almost blows you away.  ...

I saw this ad here http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/ele/2606690693.html and I was wondering if anyone knew much about it? Is it worth the amount ($350) that the seller is asking for?

I recently bought the Fiio E9 and Fiio E7 combo to use with my PC. The problem is, the E7 being used as a DAC bypasses the internal sound card on my motherboard which is where my mic is hooked up to. Is there a way I can use the mic with the DAC or make it so the mic is recognized?

I accidentally left my Sennheiser HD555 playing at an absurdly loud volume for about 10 minutes. By loud, I mean, it was hooked up to a Little Dot MK IV SE Amp with the knob turned to the max...computer volume turned to the max...and winamp's volume turned to the max. I could hear the volume...

I've researched around but I can't seem to get a firm grasp on how much a Little Dot MK IV SE is. I can see that they go for $389 new from DavidZheZhe but there are other places that sell for cheaper from what I can tell.   I found someone selling one locally used for $200, anyone know if...

I've done some searching around but can't find much information or feedback on this amp. Anyone have any experience with it? How is it? Is it worth $100?

Anyone have any experience with this amp? I'm planning on buying one off someone for $40 but I'm not quite sure on how much it's actually worth seeing as it's pretty old and it's not exactly easy finding a concrete price on it.   Is $40 a good deal on it? Also, anyone used one of these...

Greetings,   I need some advice. I've been offered a lightly used (approx. 3 hours) pair of Sennheiser IE7 for $90. It comes with everything including the manual, box, tips, etc minus the Ear Hooks which are missing. Is this a good deal? Also, take into account this is Canadian dollars, not...

Yes, I know Bose equipment is overpriced for what it does but how is the Bose Triport OE version for $60?

Hello members of Head Fi, I require help concerning the Sennheiser PX200-II. You see, one day, I noticed that a thin piece of metal strip was sticking out of the side of my headphone (the plastic side between the headband and drivers). I made a bad move and forced it back in...afterwards, I...

I have my headphones plugged into the green jack on the back of my motherboard and the speakers plugged into the black jack. My question is: does this have any negative drawbacks? Will it split the power necessary to drive the headphones between the two so there is a degrading of sound quality...

As the title states, while I was trying to mod my Sennheiser HD 555, I accidently dropped the screws into the magnet. I managed to get them out but I'm wondering if this would damage the headphones?   Other than the fact I had screws scraping against the magnet, they also pushed the thin...
