Any suggestions on wether I should cannibalize my wonderfully made 48" TWag cable from Whiplash Audio and re-terminate it w/ connections for my Senn HD600's. It was made for my Senn IE8's and I figure I will get much more listening enjoyment out of my 600's benefiting from the more expensive...

Ok, I'm curious as to how my set-up fairs against a more modern one or how I can improve any weak links. The following is what I'm using:   iMod 5th gen 80GB, Pocket Dock by 'Send Station',  Mundorf Silver/Gold in Oil Cap dock, Jena Ultra wire interconnects with gold plated Cryo Neutrik...

I have an imod with a portable V-cap dock (sold by Audio Line Out) and a headphone amplifier. The dock currently has OI v-caps (1 each channel). Can you please tell me if I add a more OI caps or add Teflon caps or do away with the OI caps and add just Teflon ones if , theoreticaly , I should...

Anyone with suggestions on either/or for me Senn IE8's. If the difference is big enough from my Hornet I'm thinking I could tolerate some low level "hiss" from the Lisa if there is any. Skylab's review just makes the choice more difficult for me.

I recently got my custom tips back from Westone for my IE8's. After the second time, the first set didn't seal as tight as I wanted, I finally got a chance to try them out. Well, I must say it sounded bad, really bad. The treble was muffled and there was a bad resonance around 5-6khz. Some...

Not sure where to post this question as it deals with IEM's and source components and imod etc. I have 100 hrs now on my imod/vcap OIMP and about 200 on my IE8's. When I first got my IE8's I was not pleased with their limited high end extension( sounded muffled to me) Through 50hrs it...

Has anyone recabled their Senn IE8's. Is it worth it? What cable did you use? If so, where do I get the connector plugs? I know the higher end Full size headphones benefit from changing/upgrading the cable, just thought that the IE8's would also. Your thoughts?

I've been reading extensively about the iMod and V-dock combo and I trust that what I read is true. Headfiers have not let me down in the past and don't think they will this time. I have kept my Pocket Dock by Send Station to use for now, I hope this does not make to much degradation in the...

I tried to diyMod my old 5th Gen and it did not go well. holy cow are those components small! I have not purchased a replacement one but I would like to have an diymodded 5th Gen or newer and also a portable vcap dock. I know RWA/ALO does this but waswondering if someone with a good reputation...

The following is what my current portable setup consits of: iPod 5th Gen, Jena labs 22 ga ultra wire with cryo treated naturik terminations for interconnects. Send station line out( so I can charge the iPod while listening, although I guess I don't need to charge while listening), The Hornet...

I was wondering if you allow members to post their playlists or a favorite list from iTunes. It would be a pretty lengthy post depending on the size of the list. I exported one of my playlists to my desktop, opened it with Microsoft works spreadsheet and then copied the Song title and artist and...

I just received a pair of IE8's with about 50hrs on them and here are my impressions and my questions for those who have IE8's that have been "burned in". Impressions: When I first heard these I noticed immediatly that 'Senn veil' that I first fell in love with fom the HD650's. The signature...

Looking for IEM (not SE530's) with excellent staging, voice realism, and imaging. $ no object I recently bought the markl modded Denon AH-D5000's with Jena recable and I absolutely love them. The problem is that I thought, being a closed design they would be more isolating. I also have a pair...

I have a pair of Beyer 770pro's and a pair of Denon D5000's. I want to recable both and am not sure which is the positive and which is the negative terminals on them. I'm assuming that I need to get this right or face damage to something. They are both single ended terminations. The Beyers have...

I just installed the new 3.0 version of rockbox and i was wondering if anyone has problems, well THESE problems, I downloaded an ipod playlist converter so I can play my itunes playlists and it works fine. Anyway, I can't access my ipod when it's charging via usb, it just says "do not...

I last posted this question about a year ago. I was wondering how Rockbox now works with the iPod 5G as far as battery life, freezing up, slow scrolling etc. There were all those problems back when I posed this question. Any comments?

Does anyone know where I can buy a pair of Senn 650's that have the deep cup from Larry? I have a pair of Darth Beyers and they're great but I must say, the first time I listened to the un-modded 650's they blew me away. I know they're not closed phones but I think I want to take the chance...

I have about 100 or so LP's that I would like to put on my iPod. I have a record player w/ RCA outs and no pre-amp. Can anyone tell me if the following is a good idea to get reasonable sound quality from LP to mp3. I found a stereo phono pre-amp online at this link...

I've been trying to find info about how well Rockbox works w/ the iPod 5G. I tried the current build a month ago and it had a bunch of bugs, delayed button response, pauses during playback(especially w/ advanced EQ settings). Those were the three main ones that caused me to change back to the...

I installed rockbox's current build on my 5th gen ipod and, like any new software I get I experiment with different settings and features etc. I started messing around with the sound settings like crossfeed, attenuation advanced EQ settings and stuff. Anyway, certain songs would stop playing for...

Does anyone know if and if so how to add your own EQ setting to the iPod 5G. I went into iTunes and opened the EQ and added my own setting, I called it JIM but it didn't show up on my iPod.

I just got my Darth Beyer V3's from Larry and I just had a few questions. Does any one know how burn-in will affect SQ of V3's? I like them except for the base seems a little muddy on rare occasions near the high end. Anyone else here this. I had Senn 650's and I loved them except they were...

I have Darth V3's on order, what is the worst song in terms of SQ that I can listen to for the first time on my new Darths. I figure if I start out with bad SQ and am impressed then stepping up in SQ should negate the usual phenomenea of getting "used" to the Darth sound. Dumb question I know...

I have some DB V3's on order now just a few short months....yeesh...till I get 'em . I have the RSA Hornet now, anything else I should consider?
