    My SR 80X are sounding better and better is this because they are getting burned in or are my ears just adapting to them?

    Is rock music especially electric guitars good sounding with the Senn HD 6xx?

    I have not had my Grado SR 80x cans long. About 10 days and have been listening to many rock albums and just finished listening to the Quadrophenia album by The Who. I must say that for 80 minutes of this album I was in bliss. The bass of John Entwistle, the drums of Keith Moon, the guitar of...

    I know I alluded to this in a previous post but my new Grado SR 80x just makes the music seem so vibrant and alive. I don’t detect any harshness either. Such a fun set of cans. I am getting to the point where I like listening to cans more than my living room speakers. Do any of you also sense a...

    Hello all, I received my Grado SR 80x phones yesterday and wow! I love rock music and these are tremendous. Such clarity and separation. I have the Schiit Audio Magni and Modi Dac and Amp driving these. I have been binge listening since yesterday. I have to admit that many albums I have heard...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Hello I have pair of HD 650s and love them. I have also thought of adding a pair of Grado SR 80x. Is it crazy to have 2 different headphones in the stable? Would the Grados be a nice counter to the 650s? Impressions on the Grado SR 80x?

    Are the Mid ranges blown?

    Hello All,   I recently bought for dirt cheap a couple of 80 watt full speakers from the 1980s. They are Sherwood S-2080s. They have a 10 inch woofer, a 5 inch mid and a 2 inch tweeter. I recently noticed that I never hear the mid when I put my ear up to either speaker. I can hear woofer and...

    THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD

    Thanks again ... Hope you don't mind but I totally stole your idea :] Last question for you: What do you use to affix the drumhead to the rubber coupling?       Hey it looks great!!..........I used Rubber cement to attach the logo. I may remove it and get it laminated.   Good Job!

    Yes the coupling is also from Lowes..........3 inch coupling in the plumbing section.

    THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD

      First of all, thanks for comments........I got the Beatles Drumhead off of Google Images and just enlarged it to fit the 3 inch coupling. The only thing I might do different, is that I wish I would have had it laminated. I may still do that. Otherwise, I get to look at that famous Drumhead...

    THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD

      The 3 inch coupling simply fit over the bracket and the sides of the bracket hold the coupling nice and snug. Do not have to worry about it coming off.   Thanks for nice comment.   Mike

    THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD

        Hello All,   I also used the hose rack hook from Lowes, and a 3 inch rubber plumbing coupling. The total cost was around $20. I then got online and searched for the Beatles Drumhead Logo of my favorite band and......voila!.........I love it!..........they hold my Sennheiser HD 439s quite...

    Why do high end headphones require good headphone amps?

    Would the Sennheiser HD 439 require an amp? Would you recommend one or would I be better served saving my money?   Thanks

    Yes the sound out of the receiver sounds a bit more rich and full......not as thin........if that makes sense...........   I could pay up to $100 for an amp if needed.   Thanks again for your great help......much appreciated.   Mike

    What headphone amplifier would you recommend? I would be more interested in a desktop model.   Thanks.
