I originally purchased CanOpener many years ago and it turns out I never backed up the IPA of the app. I have my original purchase still in the App Store system but I cannot download it again since Good Hertz, the developer, pulled it from the store. If I could have the IPA, I could install it...

I am planning on recabling my Denon D2000's and I want to make sure I have do not have my wires crossed in my understanding of recabling them. ;) Am I correct in stating that the positive lead goes to the hot/red pad on the left and the ground led goes to the opposite on the right on the back of...

I just broke my pair of stock IEM's which came with my Samsung Galaxy S4 and I am in the market for a new pair to replace them. By way of introduction, I have never warmed up to IEM's because I have found them way too darker, even more veiled than Sennheiser headphones. I just want IEM that is...

I was glancing through the forums and I noticed the Beyerdynamic DT880S in my sidebar. Has anyone ever heard of it, have any experience with it or know about its history?

I am looking for information behind the math of crossfeed in order to better configure crossfeed filtering to the actual position of my headphone drivers. My thought process has been that crossfeed would very likely sound better, each spectrum (bass, midrange and treble) lining up and providing...

Before responding to this thread, please refer to the subsequent updates made by me. There could be a few changes here and there which make all the difference.   I am now at the crossroads of upgrading in the hierarchy of headphone audiophila. But I have a lingering thought in mind that is...

It is time again for me to buy new headphones to take the place of previous ones--Superlux HD668B, Audio Technica ATH-m50--which have found a lucky owner on eBay. To keep this simple and self-explanatory, I will give some background on my audio preferences and preferences:   I used to own...

I am (hopefully) posting this in the appropriate section of the forum with the purpose of asking this open-ended "what if" question. Many years ago, Sennheiser went out on a whim in the design process and masterfully engineered the very first open(-backed) headphones, an innovative feat for its...

I'm looking for an upgrade from my ATH-m50's and I want to know if the DT880 and DT990 are good upgrades.  The problem is, I can't really decide which is best from all the comments and review given in the forums.  Confused, to say the least!   For what I have read, the DT990 '05 and DT880...

Christmas time is here, and I've got a $250 budget (~$350 if I can get my SR225i sold off). Okay, I've told you cash limit, but what do I want? A headphone, with: +Great Soundstaging +Sharp Transient +Fluid Midrange Specifically, I want cymbals to float, and have that uppermost...

Not to confuse everyone, but there was less treble extension on my burned-in SR225s compared to my burned-in HD555s. People told me that the SR225 would have sharp fast treble, so much so that it can hurt ears. Not so for me. In fact, I've had that problem more with my ears with HD555s from...

I've been working on this for quite a while, so here's the (or what I think is) the perfect EQ config for modded HD555/HD595s: Attachment 23430 The equalizer used is Electri-Q (AiXcoustic Creations: Electri-Q - posihfopit), which I added to Foobar with a VST bridge (like George Yohng's VST...

I'm interested in getting a HiFi recording device, and was wondering if the Zoom Q3 would fit the bill? I especially like the video recording aspect (similar to Flip Ultra HD), but I don't know about the sound quality. How does the Zoom Q3 compare to a Zoom H2 in this respect? Thanks!

Does anyone know if there is a crossfeed audio enhancement for Windows 7/Vista? In stating "audio enhancement", I mean this: Just wondering. Now that I've mentioned it, this will probably become some Head-Fi'er's or geek's next big programming project if this hasn't been created yet (or...

Hey everyone! What do you think of this new Sonic movie? + YouTube Video ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed. (Movie's official site>link) From the site says, it's based off the old Sonic Saturday Morning TV show with...

Question: What/When/Is AKG releasing a new top-of-the-line headphone? I thought I saw information for this somewhere, but Google and me are not working together after 15 minutes of searching.

"The Guide to the Etymotic ER-4B" "The E-R-Four-B, The I-E-M of yore, With legendary crystalline clarity, Who could ask for more?" I hear so many good reports of the ER-4B that it literally gives me goosebumps! Pristine detail with class-leading clarity in a...

I want to also add a sealed can to my collection with equal performance to that of my HD555. Will K271 fit the bill?

I've have been able to listen to both a HD650 and SR225. Both sounded very good to my ears, especially coming from an HD555. The SR225 was DEFINITELY NOT ugly bright (like an DT770-80 Pro), or bright to me at all. Sounded neutral, like a top-of-the-line pair of floor-standing speakers. The HD650...

Please help get NewEgg to carry Grado headphones. This is my latest reply from them: Dear Customer, Thank you for contacting Newegg. Thank you for the kind suggestion and if we get enough requests from various people, we may more than likely add the item on our site. Your email...

Maybe this is a leak... or it isn't. Found this on HeadRoom's graph page: If the link at anytime becomes broken, look at my attachment. I hope the HD380 sounds as good as its graph! I will get one of these if HeadRoom's entry isn't a mistake!

I am getting Asus EEE 900HA netbook for Christmas, but 'cause I am going on vacation for Christmas, I got to set it up early... After I copied some music over, I tested some things, including the headphone output. Boy, does this thing sound good. Better than anything by Creative (including my...

My Senn HD555s...yuck. I hate their sound. Virtually no upper treble, so image separation stinks. Worse yet, they have no lower bass (20-50 Khz). So.. I want some AH-D2000s. I hear they run good unamped. Is there A LOT MORE upper treble than my Senns? More lower bass? Should I get 'em?

Which is the best in terms of output quality: the Creative Zen, the IPod Classic, or the Archos 504?

Is it just me, or does it need to be amped (properly) so the bass comes out. Have other people noticed that with some sources (a regular iPod seems fine)? Thanks.
