    IER Z1R - Alternative wearing style

    This way of cabling and wearing I find much more comfortable. I struggle with any cabling touching behind my ears. The cable is a very fine Litz wire made by a Danish company whose name eludes me.

    Stax SR-303 versus SR-404

    The only difference between the published specs of the 303 and 404 appears to be that the 404 has a cable capacitance of 110 pF against 120 pF of the 303. This small amount would only affect the higher frequency components of the audio signal with the 303 perhaps having some of the HF shunted...

    Ergo 2 Rear Pads

    I wonder about these pads on the Ergo 2 which press vertically behind the ears. I suspect that they are there mainly to help stabilise the 'phones on the head rather than for some sonic benefit. Has any Ergo user experimented in removing them and come to any conclusion? It would be nice to...

    Audio Technica W5000 fit issue..........

    The Audio Technica W5000 fit issues raises a question that I have been pondering. The W5000 does not appear to have the cups suspended on a swivelling yoke which would allow rotation of the cups on a horizontal axis - this would cause fit problems at the top or bottom of the cup if the users...

    A match made in Heaven

    The Audio Technica ART ATH A900 driven directly from iPod 5g (80gB). These phones must have been made for the iPod. Classic Rock and pure Classical - superb. The A900 must also be one of the most comfortable phones I have ever used.

    Sony MDR F1 owners unite!

    Got my F1s just after HeadFi went off the air. So far I only listen to them, rather than my HD650!! Amazing phones - why are they so unknown on HeadFi? I have absolutely no problem with bass on my Opera amp with classical music. I do find them a little less comfortable than I had expected...

    Opera DAC performance

    When I received my Meier Corda Opera last Friday I compared the performance of its DAC with my Meridian 506 24 bit CD within the first 3 hours of setting up the Opera. I reported here that I did not expect the Opera DAC to match the Meridian and that in fact I found the Meridian better in the...

    HD600/650 Headband pad.........

    Does anyone know how to slip out the pad from the inside of the Sennheiser HD600/650 headband? It slides back and forth - but how can the end pieces be got out? Can't find anything under Search on this topic.

    What matters the most to you.............

    ...................... the music or the hardware? I often get the feeling on HeadFi that all the gear and having it is an end in itself and very often the music is used solely to demo it. No flames please

    Denon AH-D5000 ~ Beyer DT880 (250 ohm)

    I have read all the reviews of the Denons and how they compare to other 'phones. Is there anyone with extensive experience of the DT880 who could compare them in depth with the D5000? Thanks IanR

    Have my new HD25 for a week now......

    Sehhheiser HD25 70 ohm. At first I was completely underwhelmed. Very high clamping force and a poor soundstage plus the fact that I did not quite get the product as advertised by seller all conspired to make me unhappy with them. I had elected to buy the HD25 II bundled with a carry bag and...
