Hi guys, I have a set of speakers that always has a static noise when I play something on the TV. When initially turning on the TV it does not make much of a static/hissing noise (maybe very slightly) but as soon as I put on Netflix and play something the hissing starts. I've actually purchased...

Thanks for the reply! I'll be ordering either a switchcraft or a neutrik tonight and will post pictures after the fix 

Yup, same issue

I have a pair of Klipsch S4i II headphones. After a few months of using it (it's not under warranty) the sound coming out of one of the ears cuts in and out but if the wire is held at a certain angle near the 3.5mm plug it would work. I've been doing this for a few days but now holding the wire...

Hey guys, I'm looking to mod a pair of fostex t50rp's I bought a few weeks ago. They have a very neutral sound to them (little lacking in the bass) and I am looking to mod them in a way that will bring out the bass. I'm going for a more "fun" pair of cans than an accurate pair. What mods have...

bump,   anything guys?

Hi guys. I have a Samson sr850 and a fostex t50rp that I listen to land love. Many people recommend I buy a dac/amp to up my listening experience. In the past few weeks I've been reading a lot about fiio e7, e10, e17's but before I bite the bullet and buy one of those I was wondering what you...

Quote: Why?

Quote: I'm gonna listen to them for a while, burn 'em in. I think i'm gonna go with the thunderpants just because I hear so many good things about it.   I don't think I'm gonna purchase the v-moda cable. I think I'm just gonna cut the tip off this one and put in a 1/8" plug.

Hi guys, just bought a pair of fostex T50RP. I wanted a pair of headphones to keep for a long time and mod. After reading a few reviews here I was under the impression that they come with an 1/8" jack and have a 1/4" as an adapter. Mine came with an 1/4" input. Any idea if there are two...

For anyone reading in the future I'm using 1/8" paracord and it works just fine.

bump...

bump.   What other material can I use other high quality then techflex/show string?

Quote: A few people have told me this. I feel like shoe string material might feel too cheap. What other options do I have?

Hi guys I'm rewiring my headphones with a standard 4 strand mogami wire (don't exactly remember which one right now) and I don't want the new wire to be thicker then then wire I have on my headphones right now. Will I be able to fit standard mogami wire into the 1/8" sleeve? I'm a total noob at...

Quote: According to this thread the general consensus is that the FX 101 delivers more/better bass than the riptidz. I haven't received my FX101 yet so can't tell you how it'll compare to other over ears.

Hey guys, I posted a thread in the DIY forum but there isn't much traffic there. I'm hoping someone on this forum will be able to help me out quicker.   http://www.head-fi.org/t/622759/help-broke-my-headphone-jack-want-to-re-cable-but-have-no-idea-where-to-start

Quote: I guess it's settled then. I just wish the amazon prime applied to the FX101. I just broke the jack to my other decent headphone earlier this morning =(     BTW: If anyone is knowledgeable with re-cabling or can point me to any good tutorials please help me out...

I kind of pulled it out of my laptop in a weird way and when it popped out I noticed a chunk of the tip missing. (I've attached a picture of the broken jack)       I have a Samson SR850, and even though they are cheap and easily replaceable I spent over 300 hours listening to music on...

How does the JVC HAFX1X compare to the FX101 and FX40?

I'm looking for a pair for sub $20 headphones. I'm not exactly set on the FX101/FX40, so I am open to suggestions.   I am looking for something I can run in and wear on my commute to work (and also at work). I'll be wearing these headphones for long periods of time so comfort is very...
