    Koss KSC75's. Dont Forget This Giant Killer in all the ''Hidden Gem'' Hype.

    Where are you guys buying the Yaxi pads from? Amazon ? Does anyone know if the lifetime warranty includes replacing earpads that have deteriorated ? The website doesn't specify this. Thanks.

    Koss KSC75's. Dont Forget This Giant Killer in all the ''Hidden Gem'' Hype.

    What do you guys recommend for a cheap replacement pad for the KSC75 ? The pads on one of my pairs are shot. Thanks.

    New Monoprice On-Ears (reviewed glowingly by Cnet)

    How would you guys describe the clamping pressure on the ears? The reviewer says it's too snug. If so, any remedies?   Thanks.

    Sennheiser HD518 HD558 HD598 HD559 HD589 HD579 HD599 Support Thread

    Does the HD518 clamp as hard as the HD558 does? Is the main difference in the sound that the HD518 has more bass?   Thanks.

    [Review] NVX XPT100, A direct Brainwavz HM5 competitor

    I'm thinking of buying the XPT100 for music and movies. Does anyone know how the ear space and depth compares to the Takstar HI-2050? I recently received the Takstar and the inside of the cups are too small. Also, is the clamping pressure light enough(plus the cushy pads) to not cause discomfort...

    Pioneer SE-A1000 (Sennheiser HD 650 for $45?)

      Thanks. Which pads would fit? Are there velour and leather options?

    Pioneer SE-A1000 (Sennheiser HD 650 for $45?)

    Thanks. "Everything touches" means the cups are small and shallow? If so, I will pass on these.

    Pioneer SE-A1000 (Sennheiser HD 650 for $45?)

    How would you guys describe the amount of ear space and depth of the cups?   If you wear glasses, do you have a problem with the clamping pressure over your glasses frame?   Thanks.

    No love for Sony XB 700?

    Can these still be purchased new anywhere?   Would they work well with movies?   Thanks.

    Simple KSC75 to Headband Mod, Easy As Pie (Pics, 56k, maybe..)

    Are there any cheap headbands that will work with the KSC75, other than the Parts Express one? Thanks.

    The Takstar, Technical Pro, Gemini Greathon, CyberX, Qpad Thread

      Are those the velour pads? How does the ear space and depth compare to the stock pads?   I have the HI-2050 and wonder if the HM5 pads have more ear space.   Thanks.

    The Takstar, Technical Pro, Gemini Greathon, CyberX, Qpad Thread

    In comparing the HSR-1000 to the HI-2050, is the fit virtually the same? Inside diameter of cups, ear space, clamping pressure?   I know one is open and one is closed, but how does the sound compare?   Thanks.

    Thanks. I received my HI-2050 yesterday, and it sounds great plugged into my receiver's HP jack. Very comfortable also, with low clamping pressure. I finally found an over the ear can that works over my glasses.

    Does the HI-2050 need an amp? Will my A/V receiver's HP jack work well ?   Thanks.

    Takstar Hi2050 *First Impressions*

    Is an amp needed with the HI-2050, when plugged into an A/V receiver's HP jack? If so, how would it be hooked up to the receiver?   There's also a Blu-ray player in the mix for discs and streaming Netflix movies.   Thanks.

    Sony MDR-7506

      Thanks. They sound very nice, but they're bothering my ears after only 15 minutes. Oh well.

    Takstar Hi2050 *First Impressions*

      Thanks. I'm going to order it. Amazon has the HI-2050 for $59. Where are you guys buying it from?

    Sony MDR-7506

    Well I just got home and the 7506 were delivered today. On a Sunday? Amazon said shipped by USPS. Weird.   These cups are SHALLOW. This should be called an on ear, not over ear. The way they are now, I doubt I will be keeping them.   Has anyone used the "rope on the inside of the pads" or...

    Takstar Hi2050 *First Impressions*

      Thanks. I assume the clamping pressure is low then? I had to return the Senn. HD558 because it clamped too hard over my glasses. Do you know if it clamps less than the HD558?
