In the past I had 2 caps in my (about 20 year old) Woo3 going bad. I have changed them out, but now I wonder if anyone has re-capped their Woo3 and what caps did you use.

I have a Stax Lambda headphone and for some reason, I get a squeaky noise coming from the fright side of the headphone. I believe it is a squeaky noise the moving parts on the housing make, even with the slightest movement of my head. Just wondering if anyone had similar issues and how it...

Hi folks. I have an older Woo WA3 that I seldom use. Last time I turned it on, it made a nice buzz through the headphones, that reminded me of a bad cap in the power supply. So I changed out the ONE cap that is right next to the rectifier. That fixed about 90% of the buzz. But there is still a...

My Woo3 is going on in age and is at least 15 - 20 years old. Since some time I hear a low level hum coming through my headphones I have changed tubes and unplugged the rca cable but the hum is always there. Does not get louder or quieter with change of the volume. Just wondering if the caps...

Hi folks; Haven't been on here for a while and haven't used my Woo 3 too often lately. Since today there is a hum, that does not get louder or quieter with the volume setting. Changed all the tubes, unplugged the input, but hum is still there. Just wondering if the caps in the PSU are going...

I have been using a Sansa Clip for years. Just recently I bought some Fidue A83 IEM and the combo can sound good.   Just wondering what I am missing compared to higher priced sources. Thinking on the line of Fiio X3ii or similar price range

I finally found some IEM that I can listen to and enjoy music while working outside. However, the right channel cuts out on and off and I traced it down to a connection issue with the MMCX connector. I have used a contact spray to clean the contacts, but that seems to be only a very brief...

I love my AKG K501 but would love to have some closed headphones so my wife can watch TV while I listen to music in the same room without her hearing my music and me not nearing most of the TV.   So just wondering if the K550 would sound similar to the K501.

Planning to re-cable a AKG 501 with Toxic cable copper.   Question is: How do I get the cover off on the headphone without messing up the headphones?

Just got me a portable headphone amp for my Sennheiser 238 and am wondering if I would get better sound if I used a decent LOD with my Sansa Fuze, instead using the headphone out into the headphone amp. Been looking for some LODs and have read that for 'best' performance the cap in the LOD needs...

Since I've modded my Grado SR60 with some dynamat like stuff inside the plastic housing with good results, I was wondering if anyone tried to do some 'resonance' control on the 580/600/650 since there is plenty of plastic surface inside the headphones.    

Recently got a Sennheiser HD580 headphone and am planning to make myself a DIY cable for it. Needing about 12 - 15 ft. I do have some Canare L-4E6S I could use, but in my experience Canare has full bass and mids, but slightly recessed highs. So I am looking for a cable that has good(smooth)...

Thinking bout recabeling my Grado 60 with Mogami w2893 Miniature Star quad cable.   Not sure if it will be any upgrade to the original Grado cable or just a side step.   Any experiences?

I know you propably answered this or a similar question many times before, but I never really cared for mp3 music/player. However, working out at the Y sometimes make me want to listen to some music, to make the time pass by. Here are the things I am looking for: Want to be able to just...

I have 2 old Beyerdynamic DT990 headphones, one re-cabled with Canare start quad. My plan is to re-cable it with Cardas. When I replaced the original wire on my Beyer with Canare star quad the highs 'calmed down' and the bass and mids got fuller. Got similar experience with a solid core...

I am wondering, if there is something like 'female' Sennheiser connector? I want to try my Equinox and (soon to be here) Cardas cable on my old Beyerdynamic headphones. Both come with the Sennheiser connector. But before I cut of the Sennheiser plug off to attach them to my Beyer cans I would...

I am trying to figure out what to do with my Sennheiser HD600 and a 14 foot (or so) long Equinox cable. I had it for about a year, but used it only verp seldom, since I prefer my 20 some year old modded Beyerdynamic DT990 (600 ohm). I am trying to figure out if I should try selling the phones...

I still got one of those really old Beyerdynamic DT990 - 600 ohm version. For the longest time these have been my reference phones. I even prefer them to my HD600. Some time ago, I spoke with KZEE and he recommended recabeling my phones with a solid core wire. After much debating back and...

I just bought some SR225 of another head-fier. According to the seller the drivers were repaced by Grado last fall and may not be completly burned in. I've been using the SR60 now for 2 years. From the SR225 I was expecting a headphone with more bass slam and fuller midrange than the SR60...

Liking the sound of my Grado SR60 I've been think of buying some higher grade Grados somwhere in the future. However, I would not want to get an extra amp to drive the Grados. At the moment I drive the SR60 directly from my portable CD player. I have been looking through the archievs about...
