Telefunken is best known for their microphones (though in these parts, they're probably better known for their tubes!), but they just released a new set of headphones intended for live concert use. As far as I know, this is their first pair of headphones in a long time... most of the Telefunken...

This a thread for everyone to share fixes for bugs on iDevices experienced after upgrading to iOS7. If you are experiencing problems or annoyances please feel free to post here and someone might be able to help you out.   I'll start with two of mine:   1. Keyboard is VERY slow to respond...

Just curious as to what people on Head-Fi generally listen to, at least partially because I have somewhat unusual tastes in music.   I don't want to do a "poll" because I don't want to limit you to only the categories that I picked, and everyone else being stuck with an "other" category.   So...

This might stir up a lot of controversy, but help me to understand here... when it's all in the digital realm, it should all be bit-perfect, so why would the transport have any affect on the sound? And on a related note, why does different playback software sound subtly different, even when...

Hello everyone, does anyone know of a good budget DAC (something along the lines of ODAC or Schiit Modi) that has S/PDIF digital input (optical or coaxial, doesn't matter) in addition to the standard USB? It will be paired with a Matrix M-Stage amp which is a very high performing amp for the...

Ok that title was probably funnier sounding than it should be. But when I blow my nose too hard, I hear this squeeking noise in my right ear - sounds like air is escaping out of the ear. It doesn't happen to my left ear, and it's not just a one-time thing, it's been happening for a while now. Is...

A lot of modern recordings are mastered too hot (i.e. too loud, no headroom) and there are some songs I have where some instruments distort/clip because they're too loud. If I import a track into an audio editing program like Adobe Audition, visually I can see that the waveform goes way past the...

How come some people have this underneath their usernames? I thought you couldn't change your name.

I'm beginning to suspect that my ears are significantly changing the sound signature of IEMs compared to people with "normal" ears because they sound completely different from what other people here are describing.   First, let me describe my ears: I have very large ear canals and must...

Beats headphones get a lot of hate around here, but I think we can all agree that the CABLES they come with are pretty decent. I'm thinking of getting one so that I can use my cans with my phone. However I'm not too fond of the red colour (my headphones are classic black).   What good...

I'm in Toronto. Prefer not to wait for shipping so local would be good. Thanks.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a budget set of IEM's with remote control for my iPhone 3GS and I've narrowed it down to the following choices based on price, reviews, and availability. Please feel free to make other suggestions but only if you know for sure that they are available at a store in...
