LOL, sorry, didn't realize I put everything but the model number. Yes. The DT-1350. Something I bought whim after watching Jude's comparison video to the HD 25 II and wow... no other headphone has cleaned out my collection like this. Sounds so good.   I ended up ordering from Sweetwater...

Just wanted to update here, while I was disappointed in getting a very much used product, paying for new, etc. B&H was very gracious and paid my return shipping. So hopefully this was just a Fluke. Still... other than Sweetwater Sound, which is a place you have to special order from, I don't...

I already have a set of these, easily the best cans in their class to me ($299 from some seller Amazon) and was looking to go cheap when I saw B&H Photo had them on sale for $269, but I got a well used, possibly abused pair. Anyone watch Hawaii 5.0? These headphones may have belonged to...

Quote: Wow! Thank you x100,000 my friend, you rock! I totally know what to look for now.

I'm writing because I am confused about something. With my full-size headphones, Ohms is pretty straight forward. If I plug in a set that is about 20 ohms like my Beyerdynamic T70p, it will be loud, however if I plug in a set that is 50 ohms like my Senny 380 Pro, I will need to raise the volume...

Hopefully I am posting in the right place. Being powered by USB I figured this would be considered portable? I was wondering if anyone else has used it and how it compares with others in sound quality. To be honest, buying an amp was way way down the road for me. Today, one of my clients, who...

Just curious here, I've got Jay Z's Gray Album, not something you can buy and just rip sadly, I'm sure your all aware of it. It is in FLAC and I need it ALAC for my iPod and iTunes.   I've got a conversion program, and I did some tests. I can hear no audible difference between the two files...

Yeah, it's a sound blaster X-Fi card, I know it may not agree with some, but I dig it. I just keep seeing pictures of iPod Touches strapped to FiiO's and the really expensive Fostex HP-P1 Amp and DAC... I ask myself, "OK, does this really help the fullness of the sound or do these guys just like...

After going through several sources, I've settled on the Ipod touch. It sounds the closest to plugging right into my laptop. So my question... Will using a portable headphone amp give me the extra bit of "omph" that my laptop gives me? I listen to music at low volumes so it is all about sound...

Getting to be less of a n00b now and have a specific need. My sources are Laptop (X-Fi), iPod Touch, and my files are Apple Lossless or m4a format... anyways...   I've got the Sennheiser HD-380 Pro which I dig a lot. It has a veiled sound, good sub bass, fairly forgiving, etc. Recently...

Quote:   Thanks for your reply and good timing as well. I was glad to read your post because about 2:00am last night I was on amazon and the T70p was on sale for $408! I had to jump on that one. It'll be here wed, so I'll post an update.   As for the Shure and AKG set, I got to try...

Quote: So if I could pin you down on this, your saying that ignoring the EQ settings and leaving them on "normal" the Ipod Classic is better than the J3 for sound quality? Could you go more in depth on this? Are we talking about an overall warmer or more neutral reproduction of the music...

OK, so fast forward to now and I have a Cowon J3 because...   a) I am not going months on Ibasso, I don't want buttons like HiFiMan or Colorify. b) Every review everywhere raves on this thing, felt like a safe buy. c) I love the OS, I know some hate it, but I can fly song to song! d)...

Quote:   OK I just want to recant all of this. I needed more time and should not have posted yet. The Cowon J3 is an amazing mp3 player. After only a day of use I can navigate through this device faster than any iPod or mini tablet. It does sound amazing and has no hiss with my Shure...

Ah, OK, thanks guys I appreciate it. Still working through things, but yes I do love the sound of the Shure se535's. I mean they are like the perfectly eq'd IEM to my ears, they do nothing wrong, except hiss and that is really my problem, not theirs.   I got a Cowon J3 and things are a...

I ended up keeping them. They are my favorite headphones. I bought many others in the $500 and under range, but returned them all. For my needs and sources (laptop, samsung tablet) these can't be beat. I love their sound, so I just deal with the cable.   I briefly had a pair of Beyerdynamic...

I've been thinking about it. I worry an amp would make the base volume level even higher and I've always got it on 1 or 2 most of the time, plenty loud for me... or am I thinking about this the wrong way?   Also, does USB out to an amp basically bypass the source making it more of a file...

OK so I have my J3 Cowon now and I hope I don't get hate because of this, but I am not impressed. Yes the BBE settings can make it sound amazing, but the music is more fake sounding to me then. I have nice headphones so I just need a good source. The sound coming out of my computer with sound...

Well it seems it is indeed my source. So I guess now is that hard question. I like the feel of the Shure / Westone style IEMs, but I need something for on the go with my Galaxy S. I was thinking maybe the Westone 1 would have the least hiss?    I tested the se535's with my laptop and the...

Quote: Very cool! I have been reading reviews of these all morning. Sometimes I wish I could not see what I was reviewing because I was leaning towards the AKG K550 by what you and others wrote... then... I saw them. Holy $%^# do they look cool?! Haha! To quote my wife, "It looks like he is...

Quote: Which model would that be, my new found graph making friend? :)

Quote: Wow, that is a great review. I am still a n00b myself, although I learn towards Sennheiser and Beyer stuff, I'm happy to check out new things. So far the only thing I owned from Audio Technica was the ATH-M50 and I can see why it is popular, but it wasn't quite reference or neutral...

How are you doing these awesome graphs? I would like to learn. It would be cool to see the DT-1350 vs the T70

Sweet, thanks for the graph, makes a lot of sense. With the risk of being off topic, have you gotten to try the T70p? Big price jump, but I've heard many different stories about it from perfectly balanced to spiky treble. I figure source and frankly how deaf someone has become could account for...

Quote:   Ah, that makes sense, thank you! I've heard people remark that the DT770 is slightly bass and treble boosted. Perhaps the change from semi open to closed is the reason for this? I was thinking the bass and treble would have no change to escape thus either a real or perceived...
