I've had SE535s for a couple of years now and mostly I like them, except that I've gone through about 4 or 5 iPhone cables in that time because the cables are poorly made and keep fraying near the earpieces.   As the drivers are now out of warranty I'm thinking it might be good to get a new...

Hi,   I have a LOT of music in Apple Lossless format, and last night for the first time I did some tests with my B&W P5s and I wasn't able to tell the difference between 320kbps mp3s and apple lossless. I'd like to know if people with Edition 8s can tell the difference, so I'd be very...

Hi,   I've cracked and ordered a pair of Edition 8s :)  Really can't wait to hear them, but my primary source is an iPhone so I'm wondering if it would be worth getting an amp to keep at work that will bring out the best in them while I'm coding.  I know the iphone dock's line-out is better...

Hi,   Currently using the B&W P5s which i LOVE, the only problem I have is that after an entire day of use my ears hurt a bit.  I'm painfully tempted to buy the Ultrasone Edition 8s, which I can afford, but it's a lot of money to spend on headphones.   I know the P5s have a weird sound...

  Hi,   I recently bought the B&W P5s and I love them, they sound gorgeous out of my iPhone 4.   My only minor complaint is that they become slightly uncomfortable after several hours of use, and whilst I don't mind too much as I'm sure I'll get used to it, I am wondering if it would...

Hi,   I'm looking for a new pair of headphones but have quite a specific use-case.  I currently use QC15s because I used to work in a very noisy office but that isn't the case anymore and I'd much rather have cans that sound better than have the noise cancelling.   So my criteria is...

Hi,   I am interested in the RS1i, but would primarily be using them with an iPhone 4.  I don't want to carry a portable amp around with me. Assuming that I would be listening to lossless audio, would these be worth the money given my use-case or would I just not get the best out of them...

  Hi,   I'm trying to figure out what portable headphone amp I should get.  I'm using the 32ohm version of the DT880 with my iphone and my macbook at work.   So far I've considered the E7 and the PA2V2.  The E7 seems nicer in terms of features, I could plug it into my macbook and use...

ugh sorry i just realised that i posted this in the wrong section.  i can't find a delete button so i'll just repost in the portable amps section and ask any admin reading this to kindly delete this post :)

Hello, I'm new to this forum so hello :) I recently bought a pair of beyerdynamic DT880s (32ohm).  Today I snipped the cable and put a Neutrik connector on them because the cable was way too long for portable use.  Whilst doing this, I noticed that the wiring inside the admirably thick...

      Hi,   I'm new to this forum after having recently upgraded from Bose QC15s to a pair of Beyerdynamic DT880s (32ohm version).   I'm reasonably impressed with them so far, although not completely blown away.  I suspect this is mostly because of poor amplification, I've been...
