Hello Folks I’m on to my second year at the university on which I study “sound and music production”, and I’m in need of some serious full-size cans that I can use while working in school and in the studio. I have an old pair of DT770 that I’ve been using for over four years now, and since...

Hello folks, I searched through my father’s old equipment and found a Technics SL-BD22 that, beside a noisy engine, works perfectly fine. Since I’m new to vinyl playback I don't know if this is a good player? The pickup seems pretty horrific and I wonder if there is any way to upgrade...

Hello folks, I've bought myself a new stereo (Bowers & Wilkins DM683, Cambridge 740A/740C -combo) and I've decided to make my self a really nice interconnect instead of buying one. I'm going to buy some silver wire 0,5mm (24AWG) from "MrMajestic2" and I need some help with a few questions...

Hi, I’m going to make myself a new set of cables, both to my stereo as well as my portable setup. I have some question though. Let’s say that I’m going to do a pair of interconnects for my stereo; should I or should I no braid the signal and ground conductors together? And if I make a new...

Hi, Thinking of getting a new amp that would work good portable (iPod) as well as with my laptop through USB. Any tips on an amp that would work nice with my DT-770 80ohm (that will eventually become Darth Beyers), and that's not bigger than my Go-Vibe V5? Price: About $300USD Thanks...

Hi, Since I don’t have too much time, I’ll get straight to the point. I love my Beyer DT 770 and their sound, but they are a bit to big to walk around with – especially in the summer. So, I’m thinking of getting some nice IEM’s to go with my iPod>Go-Vibe V5 setup and I would like some help...

Hi, When I opened up my DT-770 for about 15min ago I accidentally made a hole in the thin paper surrounding the membrane. I screamed out in pain for almost a minute - followed up by over a hundred curses. I then quickly put the thing together again and listened to it, to find out that the...

Hi, Now that I've finally got my self an iPod Video I feel that a new amp would be nice, and of course I now need some help on which one to go for. First; I wonder how much I would actually have to pay to get better sound then my Go-Vibe V5 (AD8620/8610) and second; which one would you get...

Hi folks, I’m going to trade my 1st gen Nano to a used 5th gen iPod Video 60GB tomorrow + about $30 in between, but before this I have three questions that I hope you have time to help me with. 1. Why I will get it so cheap (my Nano + about $30) is because the headphone jacket on his iPod...

I'm thinking of recabling my DT-770 and I wonder which cable to go for? Share all of your tips, please! /Chopha EDIT: There's got to be some tips out there. What does Larry at Headphile use?

Hi, Many of you as well as my self love the DT-770 from Beyerdynamic, but to many think that they have just too boomy bass and too recessed mids - and sometimes I agree. I’ve been thinking about a way to change the sound for a while and when I read kramer5150’s thread about recabling the...

Hi! Since I'm self interested in modding my Beyerdynamic, I wonder If we could make our self’s a thread to sum up all the available mods that could be done to the Beyerdynamic headphones - both DIY as well as mods that others does for you. I'll start with one mod that we all know, and if...

(searched on the forum after an answer, but couldn't find any) One quick question! Do the Iriver e10 have any form of line out like the Ipod dock connector? If yes, can you buy those and make line outs of them, or do you have to use the standard 3,5mm line out even if you have a separate...

I'm thinking of making myself a new interconnect for my portable rig and I wonder how important it is to solder one of the conductors as ground? Is it crucial or can I skip that? Why I ask is because I have taught myself a really good looking braiding technique which contains four wires, and...

Hi! Found a pretty cool sound clip called Virtual Barbershop. Try it with your best phones – sounds really amazing. Knock yourself out: http://www.speedyshare.com/207155599.html /Chopha

Hello! Since the summer is around the corner and I sooner or later will end up wearing only t-shirts and shorts I think my DT-770 will be to big to carry with me, so I’m thinking of buying myself a pair of IEM's. I plan to use them straight out of my Ipod (loaded with 320kbit/s mp3 songs) and...

Hello! Quick question! Have anyone tried the Creative Zen Vision W media player? I wonder how user friendly it is, how good the video function is and - most important - how good the sound quality is? Do you think that my DT-770 would be driven properly from it? Been thinking of...

Hello Folks! For about 1 month ago I got my Go-Vibe V5 with AD8620/8610 op-amps mounted and now a problem has occurred. The amp works crap at all volumes except the really low.When the volume knob is between 7 ('o clock) and up, a buzzing sound occurs and remains there. If I listen to music...

Hello! My brother-in-law becomes 40 next week, and for birthday gift he says that he would like the Bose in-ear headphones. Are they any good, or should I instead buy him a pair of Shure E2c or Etymotic Research ER-6? He will use the IEM’s straight out of his Ipod 80Gb video and he will...

Hello folks! After a few threads in the headphone, amp and DIY section on this forum, I’ve finally received and completed my new portable setup. A few days ago I got my Go-Vibe V5 "low gain version" with AD 8620/8610 op-amps installed from Norm in Canada. Norm was a very pleasant guy to...

Hello! I’m thinking about making my own Ipod connector > 3,5mm interconnect, but I’m not quite sure on which of all the pins in the contact that I should solder left, right and ground on? Could anyone show me a picture or a guide that will solve my problem? Thanks in advance… /Chopha

Hello Folks! At this moment i'm sitting with a pair of Grado SR60's and most of the time i really do like them. But now I'm in a big need of some closed headphones because of all the sound leaking in through my Grados makes them unuseable on my way to school. What I like with my Grado's is...

Hi! I wonder if anyone here knows if i changing cable on my SR60's will improve the sound on them? I'm pretty good at soldering, but I don't know what cord I should go with (that isn't to expensive), how to do it and if it's worth it? I'll be happy for any tip... /Chopha PS. Can I...

Hello folks! I have decided to order a pair of Liberators and the guys at Dark-Audio want me to pay by using PayPal. I have never used PayPal before and I wonder how secure it is? After I send my money from my user-account to his user-account at Dark-Audio, how do I know that he will send me...

Hello! I’ve been thinking about order and install a pair of Liberators that I’ve heard so much about. I still use the comfy-pads on my Grado SR60, but I don’t know I should replace them or not - and if yes, which pads should I use? Thanks… /Chopha
