You can bend the headband slightly to fix this issue. Make the bend a little bit tighter at the top center of the band and then make the bend a little bit flatter on the sides of the band. This will spread the top of head hotspot to be more even across your entire head. Did the trick for me...

Yes, my ears are fully inside the cups. I have even gone as far as using my hands to press the cups tightly against my head to ensure that the earpads are making full contact on all sides of my head. The bass is quite satisfying, so that also reassures me that I am getting a proper seal. It has...

I just received my MSR7 gunmetal a few days ago. The sound is absolutely delicious (yes), but I am getting virtually zero sound isolation. I understand that these are ported so they are not 100% sealed, but other reviews I read before buying nearly unanimously described at least mild isolation...

Although I don't listen to Trance, I do have the Pro 900's and I can say that yes, the bass is extremely strong, but that it doesn't overpower the other frequencies like would happen in a lot of cheaper bass-heavy cans. I am still able to easily follow the sounds in the mid and high range just...

I run Foobar through ASIO to my EMU 1212m. Whenever I come to music with a different sample rate, the EMU software makes this big deal about the sample rate switching. I then have to select a new profile for the card and restart Foobar before the music will actually play. Does anyone know of any...

I see its been about 6 months since the last Utah meet so just checking to see who might be interested in gathering some time in the near future.

Quote: The HD650 leakage is low enough at normal listening volumes to not go beyond 1-2 feet, and the closest person sits about 5 feet away. Unfortunately I can't say the same for my RS1's that will go 10 feet at the same volume.   Also, in case anyone is interested, I ended up buying...

I currently use 5g Ipod > LOD > RSA Tomahawk > Senn HD650 at work. I have decided that I want to upgrade my source. I don't care one bit about portability, so I plan on bringing in an old netbook that sits unused to host all of my music in FLAC. I still plan on using the Tomahawk and HD650, I...

OK Computer!

Any help?

$3300

they dont isolate at all, but I would recommend Yuin PK-3, their earphones are extremely durable.

iPod 5g 30GB - $250 ALO Custom Silver Dock - $100 RSA Tomahawk - $295 Yuin PK1 - $110 Etymotic ER-4P/S - $180 TOTAL - $925

It wouldn't.

HD650

KSC-75 > Darkvoice 336i > Oppo DV-981HD

wouldn't an imodded nano be kinda pointless? I was considering having my 30gb ipod imodded and decided not to due to storage capacity, or lack thereof. The nano would be even worse. 8gb of flac/alac doesnt go far :P

Or possibly Grado SR-225 or MS-2i depending on what type of music you listen to

Saint-Saens - Symphony #3

Having owned SR-225's and having extensive listening sessions with others' K-501 I definitely have to say that PK-1 sounds far more like K-501 than SR-225.

Last call for any Alabama persons who wanna carpool!

I use my PK-1's on a daily basis in my (usually) quiet office. As long as I keep my volume decentl (50-ish dB), I can always hear if someone needs me, and when I take them off to talk to someone, I can't even hear the sound coming out of them when they are less than a foot from my ear...
