I swapped the pads to the Dekoni elite velour, which give a extremely smooth mids and treble response, then i eq them slightly just increasing the upper mids and treble by about 4db. They sound perfect. You can find the fr gaph for the lcd2c with dekoni elite velour pads on google images if you...

Sorry i went a bit nuts, these photos came out better than i expected.

I just think the audeze sounded closer to the real life instruments. The quad also had a weird soundstage.

Ok guys..... So i went today to try out the Quad era1 and some other headphones. Let me list the headphones first: quad era1, hd800s, lcdx, lcd2c, focal elear, hd660s and my k701's to compare. Let me just say straight away...I didnt like the Quad era1. I didnt like their tonality, they just...

I will be going on saturday to try out the quads at some place near me, as well as some other headphones. Also last time i went to try out headphones at some place i took my k701 and i was comparing them against lots of them, like the hd800/s, audeze, hifiman, focal, etc and i dont know if its...

Yes but i still would want to see exactly what i would be missing so i could eq it. Plus theres some planars with dips in the upper mids that lose too much information and is not fixable. On the other hand with the k701 i have dont have that problem. They only have 2 main spikes around 2.2khz...

Im quite interested these headphones but i wouldnt buy headphones unless i can see a frequency response graph, because i want to know exactly what im getting. There could be a negative peak in the upper mids or treble or something and i dont want to lose that information. I have the k701 atm...

My nx4DSD strapped to my phone case with velcro. I cant understand why people use those rubber bands when you can use velcro. Its nice and clean. Also i havent seen people with my colour scheme before, or with any colour scheme for that matter :/ Might post a pic with everything connected...

oh very good. So that means i just use it on preamp mode and it will be fine?

Guys im not familiar with studio monitors enough to know the answer to this question, so this might sound stupid but:    I heard that studio monitors need an audio interface, but I have my nfb10se, which is similar enough to the nfb 28 (thats why im posting this here) so i was wondering if its...

Quote: £450?? didnt you pay for import duties? with import duties and shipping it should come to around £538.   I would love to pay £450 but i dont wana risk getting charged import duties :(   i used the ebay calculator and typed in the ID for the he-500 from head-direct ebay and...

plus i put my 701 on like 2 hours ago and the damn plastic thing snapped........... Ive seen a pic someone else posted on the forum that has a snap in the same place.  Im annoyed because the right driver rattles a lot when i listen to music with any bass in it and i was going to send them...

ok thanks hifiman rookie.Its just £700 is a lot of money and i just want it to be worth it if i buy it.  I was thinking of buying studio monitors instead since i got headphones but not sure.

hifiman rookie is it worth me upgrading to the he-500 from the k701

Quote: they did it all on their own even though i try to stretch out the headband max so its maximally loose

the bumps create massive grooves in the head. It doesnt matter what position you put them on your head. I didnt use them my a few months and the grooves in my head stayed. They are permanent now. The bumps on the akg headband reshape the scalp.

why didnt they do this bump less headband in the first place....
