    Headphile Grados

    Wondering if anyone has had their Grados modded by Larry at Headphile. What was your experience, what changes did you have done, and how did your headphones sound before/after?

    Kaiser 10 DAP

    Hey guys, I picked up a Kaiser 10 during the Black Friday sales and was contemplating what DAP to pick up for them. I was considerig the Sony ZX2 based on some good things I've heard about the pairing. I was also considering splurging on a Astell&Kern AK240 based on the general reviews I've...

    Fostex TH900 DAC

    I've been using an Ibasso D12 for awhile and its been a pretty nice DAC, probably the bottleneck in my system, but still pretty passable.   Unfortunately my Ibasso D12 blew out last night and so I need a new DAC  for my Fostex TH900.   I'm looking for a mid-centric DAC that synergizes well...

    Svetlana 3

    I was hoping somebody could provide me some comparisons of the svetlana 3 compared to the svetlana 2.  I was considering picking up a svetlana 2 for my audio technica w3000anv and I noticed the svetlana 3 for $400USD cheaper, but I haven't heard anything about it. I looked around but couldn't...

    Source Recommendation

    I just got my w3k yesterday and I began to think about upgrading my source since it seems to be the weakest part of my setup.  Right now I'm using sansa clip+ to 3.5mm to ibasso d12 to 3.5mm to Bellari HA540 to w3k with the weakest part probably being the clip.  What are some good daps up...

    AKG tubes

    Right now I'm using a Bellari HA540 with a Tungsol AX7 goldpin to power my AKGs, anybody have any recommendations for tubes for these?  I like the goldpin as its airiness goes very well with the AKGs so something along those lines would be great.  Thanks

    Sennheiser hdr 130 vs sennheiser hd 650

    I've been hearing how the hd 650 is very forgiving with poorly recorded tracks and heard the hdr 130 today.  I actually liked the 130 alot especially with the drums.  It made tracks that I knew for a fact were poorly recorded sound on par with well recorded tracks and I was curious how its sound...

    AKG K702 music

    Just tried out Chris Clouse's album on these going Sansa Clip > Ibasso D12 > Bellari HA540 > Akg K702.  I can honestly say that I've never been so floored by any headphones I've tried or currently have.... ever.  Anyone else know any great bands for the K702s?

    Headphone Upgrade from Akg K702

    Over the last few months I've tried Beyer DT880s 32ohms, AKG K702s, and now Hifiman HE-400s.  The Beyers sounded unimpressive, the Hifimans too dark and bassy for me, but I loved the AKGs.  I currently have the Hifimans and keep find myself comparing their soundstage and ability to reproduce...

    Grado Customer Service

    Several months ago one of my gimbles on my Grado 225is broke and I emailed Grado's customer service asking how to purchase a new one being that I was out of warranty.  When they responded they simply asked my address and told me they would send me a new one free of charge.  Several days ago the...

    Gaming Headphones

    About three years ago I got some Astro A40s and I loved them for gaming.  About a year ago they broke and I got some Tritton AX720s as a present which I liked significantly less due to comfort and cord weight issues.  Now I am looking for a new headset strictly for gaming and movies, but I am...

    Senn HD 650 vs Beyer dt 880 (600 ohm) vs AKG K702

    I have been looking for a new pair of headphones and have narrowed it to these three.  I currently own some grado 225is with the sennheiser pads and love them, but want to try a few different sound signatures from different companies.  I originally settled on a pair of beyer dt 880 600ohms, but...

    Ibasso d12 opamp kits

    Recently I invested in a pair of beyerdynamic dt 880s 250 ohms and began to reconsider how I want to power them as well as how to get the proper sound out of them.  I plan to purchase the Bellari HA540 in about half a month as well as a 12AX7 tube and a 12AT7 tube. At the same time I would like...

    Rs1i vs LCD-2 vs LCD-3

    In a couple months I'm going to be graduating from my high school so I was hoping to get a new headphone setup before college with approx. a 2k budget.  Right now I'm using a Grado 225i with senn yellow pads and an Ibasso d12 with stock opamps.  I enjoy the "in your face" sound of the grados...
