Ultrasone HFI-780 with Denon d600 pads
I know there are several threads on this topic but I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried putting denon d600 pads on the ultrasone hfi-780s? I was able to compare them today and it looked like they might fit. If they definitely don't fit I may just try to make my own. I am curious as to what...- acegazda

"Pairing," optical and coaxial inputs and more
So I'm pretty set on getting a D4 mamba for my ultrasone hfi-780s but I had a few questions first: the d12 has coaxial and optical input/output... what are these for? do they offer better sound quality? Another thing I'm wondering about is "amp pairing," specifically with the ultrasones...- acegazda

Ultrasone HFI-780; not a lot of bass impact
I currently have the Ultrasone HFI-780s that I got a couple weeks ago and now they have about 10-15 hours of listening on them. Maybe it's just that I've read too many threads about how much bass these phones have or idk what but it doesn't seem to me like them have a whole lot of bass...- acegazda

Ultrasone HFI-780 arrived today: first impressions and the burn in begins...
I was pleased to find these pair of cans finally had arrived after a bit of a wait (stupid ensenda shipping). After opening the package a couple things immediately jump out: 1.

Compare the Shure srh840 and the Ultrasone HFI-780; headband comfort and more
It seems like people think both of the aforementioned headphones have a lot of clamping force. Can someone who has had both speak to the comfort of either after a bunch of uses? I have heard the shure loosens up... what about the ultrasone? in terms of sound; the ultrasones are a very "forward"...- acegazda

Does the sony walkman LOD function the same as an iPod LOD?
I'm thinking of getting this: http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-L5-Line-Cable-Walkman/dp/B003UCI2CI/ref=acc_glance_e_ai_purchase_similarities_t_3 for my dap. Is this a true line out? Will it improve the sound if I run my Fiio E5 from this instead of from the headphone jack? Thanks.- acegazda

Ultrasone HFI-780 an upgrade from Denon D1001k?
I have a pair of Denon d1001's from a couple yrs ago and I'm wondering how the ultrasone HFI-780 stacks up against it. It seems to me like some of ultrasone's "technologies" that they put into their hfi series are pretty gimmicky but i don't know because I've never listened to any of them. How...- acegazda

I've ripped some scratched cd's...
So I've ripped some scratched cd's and some songs skip, probably b/c of the scratches. My question is, does this mean that the data is lost in that part of the song, or could I use a cd cleaner to buff out the scratches, making it like new?
