I really appreciate the ideas guys, I did the following today:   1. Rearranged my desk and moved the Pan Am about 2 feet from my computer 2. Took extra care to route my USB cable away from other electronics and their power supplies 3. Switched USB ports on my computer 4. Added the tube...

Good call, I was not using the tube covers earlier. I now have the covers on the Pan Am, but unfortunately the problem persists. This seems to have reduced the frequency of the distortion/interference a little bit, but it still happens approximately once every 15 minutes or so. It was a good...

Hi Pan Am owners, I'm looking to get some feedback on a problem I've encountered. I picked up a Pan Am (with Passport battery) and some Sennheiser HD650s during Black Friday as my first real setup, but I've only gotten around to playing around with the two for an extended period of time tonight...

All 3 are pretty well regarded on the forums, however, I can only really comment on your concerns regarding the HD25s. The sound stage is a bit cramped, but this is to be expected of a closed can and I doubt the other M50 or M80 would fair a whole lot better in that category. In regards to sound...

Got the the song part right, but I feel like I'm hearing some kind of background distortion in the test tones so I'm not sure where my hearing actually cuts out.

Just to note: the T1's are open, or at least semi-open, but the T5p's are closed.

Excellent comparison, has definitely got me interested in the HD598s. I was really surprised to see it beat out the HD600s on a full testbed. I know this test was done with a full setup to really max out the competitors, but can anyone comment on the 598's sound when unamped, like from a laptop...

Quote: I take that as the Amperiors being the best sounding of their type, a closed on-ear portable. Unfortunately, at $350 I doubt they would stand much of a chance against Beyer DT880s, AKG K701s, Denon D2000s, Senn HD600s, etc. Same ballpark price, but obviously very different type...

Hey guys,   Really considering the DT1350 for my first high quality set of headphones, their Tesla drivers seem incredible when considering that they are actually portable. Also considering the Sennheiser HD25-1-II, Audio Technica M50 and the Grado SR325is (I am aware they are open and would...

What's up guys, new here (though have lurked from time to time) and have come to ask for advice. I have a pair of Klipsch S4s that recently broke and and I'm looking for something new as a replacement/upgrade, something a little more high end. The S4s were my everyday earphones and did a decent...
