Hi everyone. It's been many many years since I've posted but I'm still alive and still enjoying music with headphones and whatnot. So here is my problem. A few years ago I started a new project at work that had me inside a large laboratory that housed a lot of people and equipment. This...

So I went to unique melody to get my SE530's remolded and they came in yesterday. At first I was concerned because all the bass I remember being there was gone, replaced with what I could only describe as disappointment and mild rage. Then I realized the kind of music I listen to (synthpop and...

Howdy so instead of doing the obligatory take pics of your rig....I just made a YouTube video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGrCmVUqoLU&sns=em Here are the specs iPad 32gig iPad camera connector Fiio e7 Grado SR325is IPod 240gig Fiio LOD iPhone 16gig Ultimate ears TF-10 This gets paired...

As many people have discovered the iPad camera connector kit (specifically the USB one) has a couple of surprises. The first being that it opens the entire USB host stack wide open on the platform. This allows things like keyboards, microphones and other interesting things not normally supported...

I had been trying to sell off my SE310's for some time and there were no takers. Honestly I was unimpressed with the sound they made. In the end I had a friend visit and I ended up giving them to her. She likes them but agrees they have no low end. She still enjoys using them and as these are...

So I was hanging out with some phd candidates who grow carnivorous plants (another hobby) turns out the guys roommate is also an audiophile. So we were talking and it turns out he bought a pair of tf10's when they were 99 bucks...in fact he bought two pair. He sold me the other pair for 150. All...

For the most part I've heard a lot of what I think is pop music and the singers voices are whiny. Girls Aloud sound whiny, Jason Derulo, Ke$ha, I mean it all sounds like they are trying to sound as annoying as possible. Am I alone in this, cause if that's just changing trends then more power to...

So I plugged my iphone 3GS into the new XM4 I just got, when I turned it on I got a wonderful amount of interference from the cellular chip. I'm doubting this is normal especially since I was using the LOD. Anyone had this happen?

This only happens when I use my 530's, but when I plug them into the DAC I get this rather quite tick tick tick tick noise. It sounds like current frequency honestly. This only happens with the 530's and a pair of e2c's, with my 325is there is nothing but clean darkness. So is this a Shure...

So here is what I'm going to attempt. Right now I have an absolutely wonderful pair of Sennheiser HDR45 cans which sound delightful....just one small problem, they use RF and they are full of static and they sound awful. I'm going to attempt to mod them into a set of wired cans for general...

Just like the title says, I'm trying to find one that doesn't cost 150 and 160 dollars. I know of the one that's 20 dollars from a shop in uk. I recall seeing one a few days back for about 40 or 50 dollars that said it would work with the 3GS. Does anyone know of any LOD that fit this criteria?

After showing my audiophile nature to my coworkers in the lab I work at. I think they are all getting a slight case of hi-fi fever. My 325is's have been passed around to every person in the lab and they are all blown away by them. My manager is borrowing my se310's to audition. One of my...

Okay something is strange. No matter what flanges I use, they make my ears hurt. By hurt I don't mean ears ringing I mean like the headphones feel like they are weighing my ears down and it hurts. Has anyone had this problem.

So far I've been testing out the 530's and they sound really good, they have a lot more bass response than say the 310's, however I've noticed something. Certain songs sound great (Hill Valley 2015 sounds spectacular and it is an itunes AAC purchase (the higher quality ones) while some of my...

So obviously I'm a bit of a black sheep at work, I love what I do and not only that, but I love doing what I do at work outside of work. Now I usually bring my hobby into work with me for various reasons (I love music, I like being able to shut the world out etc) So when people see all these...

So let's start this blog off with a bang. Hello my name is Alyson and I live in San Diego. Now that the pleasantries are done and over with, let us begin. A few months ago I moved out to San Diego from Virginia to start a new job. I knew few people here and I was essnetially starting anew...

I went to the audiologist today and got my ears filled with nasty silicone goop so they could make ear pieces. The doctor was really nice and she even explained that me opening my mouth was a natural reaction because my body is trying to change the pressure in the ear drum. After about 5 minutes...

So far I'm cautiously optimistic that these are great IEM's. My only complaint is that the sound, specifically bass and lower mids seem to bottom out and not have any push at all. If that's the case then that's fine, as I figured out how to tweak the EQ to get it to sound how I like, I just...

As the title states, does anyone else have this hobby? I grow Dionaea muscipula or venus flytraps. I have a couple of them a sawtooth and a B-52 division. I also grow napenthes which are tropical pitcher plants. I love them to death and think they are probably the coolest things in the world...

Well I knew this day would come. I have had almost 5 years of nothing but wonderful enjoyment out of the headphones, I was even privy to Shure's unbelievable customer service, but my little e2c's have finally passed on. It started as a slight recurring short in the right side and finally a total...

Hi, I've had the wireless sennheiser HDR 40's for almost 3 or 4 years now, and as the years have progressed the signal has gotten weaker. What I mean is there was a time when I could put the anttena/stand in my window cill and walk over 100 feet and pretty much have clear audio. Now, if I walk...
