Aside from the Bass Freqs I already have and am considering modding a little bit, as they're not bad for $20 IEMs from three years ago, and could possibly benefit from a better enclosure, some foam tips, and a recable, what would be other good $20-$50 guineapig IEMs for trying various mods on...

Since I tried my first successful headphone mod, swapping Portapro drivers into a UR40 enclosure to great success, mainly to have a pair of headphones that stays comfortable to wear for long periods of time again, I kinda wanna try velour earpads on these things, mainly as the stock leatherette...

Since I'm hopefully getting Portapros soon, and there's been mixed reviews on the headband, I kinda wanna try swapping the KSC75 drivers that the UR40s come with out with the Portapro drivers, and opening up the earcups and exposing the drivers by removing the foam liner.   I know it would...

I wanna get some Portapros now to upgrade my current Bass Freqs, and I'm wondering, would it be possible to get some replacement pads for a pair of MDR-ZX100s and swap the stock foam earpads out for them, and if so, how would they feel and sound?   Connected through a portable amp to a Sansa...

I've been looking at KSC75 driver mods, and now I'm a bit curious how using Grado aluminum shells and chambers along with velour or wool-wrapped L-cush pads along with some cheap headband wrapped in either leather or fake fur, with KSC75 or Portapro drivers, would sound.   Of course a...

Hi there. Just asking for the heck of it, which of the two Arch distros would you guys use? Arch with GNOME Shell and GDM, or the Arch-based Manjaro GNOME? On one side of the coin, Arch is set up to your exact specs and always has the newest stuff, meanwhile on the other side, although Manjaro...

Hiya! Hadn't posted a thread in a while. Anyways, a little curious, what would happen to the SR60i's sound if you were to swap the stock plastic shell out with an aluminum shell/wooden chamber combo, and then swap out the stock earpads with G-cush earpads, and then for looks, put some sort of...

Hi there! My UR-40s are in storage right now 'cause the plug shorted out on them a while back, and I'm thinking that modding them to use detachable cables would be a good idea, 'cause they are really great-sounding headphones and not worth tossing out over a broken plug.   Is that a good...

Just had the thought come to my head of possibly swapping out the stock drivers on my current V150s with the UR-40s whose plug bit the dust a while back, and wondering if it would really be worth the trouble, or even possible to do so? Not considering doing so until a little while after the...

Hi there! Just curious, would Kenwood still be worth considering in the home-audio world, although they moved to car audio a few years back? Because I mean while they were in the home-audio business, they built their stuff like tanks and they had some of the best equipment out there.

Hey guys! Just joined the community and want to ask what's going on with you guys? :) Also, how do you guys think the Sony MDR-V6 and Bose AE2 stack up to each other for home usage, and how do you thing the Sennheiser HD 202 II stack up against the Sony MDR-XB300 for portable usage? I've read...
