The Beyerdynamic Byron Series (IFA 2016)
Is there anyone who has the wired Byron headphone who can try them on an iPhone? I'd be interested to know if the controls work, if the mic works, and if there's any difference in sound quality/volume. They apparently only have Android wired remotes, and I've found conflicting reports about the...- Magnakai

Comfy full size phones - upgrade from Grado SR-60
A little update: So, following an unexpected bonus, I bought the Sony MDR MA-900s new, and a very lightly used second-hand pair of HD600s. The Sonys arrived about 10 days ago, and I've been using them constantly since. As promised, the soundscape is startling wide, with sounds popping up...- Magnakai

Comfy full size phones - upgrade from Grado SR-60
I'd be plugging it into an iMac almost all the time. I do have an M Audio FW410 from my wannabe rock star days, but it's apparently got a poor headphone amp.- Magnakai

Comfy full size phones - upgrade from Grado SR-60
Well, I'm dithering over several fine suggestions. The Sonys (£130 on Amazon) and AKGs (not easily available in the UK) both sound like really good buys, and very comfy, but now I'm worrying that the quality difference over my Grados will be too slight. On the other hand, spending around...- Magnakai

Comfy full size phones - upgrade from Grado SR-60
Thanks for the recommendations so far. I've been reading up quite a few reviews - there's a lot to consider! I think part of the problem is that I'm not experienced enough! I certainly like the idea of airiness. I imagine it's going to be less fatiguing over long periods than deep...- Magnakai

Comfy full size phones - upgrade from Grado SR-60
My Grado SR60s have been a constant companion for many years now. After trying many different pads, the big yellow Sennheisser HD414 pad has made them comfy enough to sit on my head for anywhere from 4-10 hours a day, 5 days a week. However, I recently got a pair of Klipsch X10i phones...- Magnakai

Official K-81 DJ thread
Does anyone know anywhere in the UK (preferably online) selling these? I had a wander up and down Tottenham Court Road last time I was in London, but nobody stocks any AKG stuff. I'm in Glasgow atm, if it helps. EDIT: Never mind, they have them at Dolphin Music...- Magnakai

KSC75 -- Wow.
I'm on the cusp of buying some KSC75s. (about £15 inc shipping from Amazon.co.uk) The PX100s are only £5 more on Amazon when you work it out with shipping, but I swore off Sennheissers when they kept breaking in travel. The money's not the main bother, but comfort and overall sound is. I...- Magnakai

Sony MDR-D66 (Eggo) problem/upgrade
Thanks guys! I'd already sorta decided on the AKGs from reading other posts on here, but I just wanted a second (third) opinion. I'll go ask on the DIY forum, and see if anyone can help me out. Thanks again!- Magnakai

Sony MDR-D66 (Eggo) problem/upgrade
Hiya I've been using a pair of MDR-D66s for about 18 months. They're my first quality pair of headphones, and I've really enjoyed them. They're comfortable, are very portable and most importantly they sound pretty good. For about the last 6 months I'd been noticing an occasional rattle in...- Magnakai
