Just a dumb name for fake leather, aka "vegan" leather

^^ Also does anyone have a line on new ultrasuede pads for NightOwl? Mine are starting to flake and AQ support says they only have the protein leather pads in stock.

I dig this EQ! I had sort of drifted to the Innerfidelity-measured AutoEQ, with the top half of the sliders cut about in half, as you mentioned, but I like yours better! On another note, I just can't upgrade this headphone! I've had upgraditis since about the new year, and I've tried the...

Well, that's nice to hear, given the discount price!

Don't have them yet, hoping they'll arrive by Friday. I'll update with some impressions then.

Just picked the pro IEMs up for a song from Nordstrom's, and was alerted to the fact that while they advertise them as "quad armatures", they really only have 2 per side (so four total). I've only ever seen that in Chi-Fi products such as the CCA C10. Just so everyone is aware.

I've been looking for an upgrade to my 1More Triple In-Ears, and this CCA C10 has me interested. Can anyone compare these?

How is the sub bass on these cans? Can anyone compare it to the (imo excellent) sub bass on the Denon D2000s?

Can they play music via the USB cable like the Parrot Zik 3?

Hey guys,   So I recently picked up a U7 and have really liked it, but I'm having a problem.  When Dolby Home Theater v4 is active, I get intermittent popping/crackling while playing music.  Goes away completely when I turn DHTv4 off.  Any ideas how I can fix it?   FWIW my computer is a...

After 5 years of loyal service (and only having to replace the cable once), I've unfortunately lost my pair of Triple.Fi 10s.  I'm looking for a decent replacement on the cheap; can anyone compare the sound quality of these Piston 3's to the TF10?  Optimally I'd like the clarity of the TF10s...

Hi All,   I absolutely love my AD700's for gaming and most music, but I've finally grown tired of trying to use crappy desk microphones.  I bought the V-Mode BoomPro mic, which fits in my UE6000s and works beautifully, but the UE's are just nowhere near as comfortable as the AD700s (they make...

I'm in the same boat as you and was considering the Philips Fidelio X1.  They have a removable cable which means I can use the V-Moda BoomPro mic I already own for gaming and VoIP.   Any thoughts on how the K612 and the X1 compare?

Quote:   I realize this reply may come a couple months too late, but if anyone else is having this problem with Android, install an app called Headset Button Controller.  You can't (and probably never will be able to) use the top and bottom button, but you can set controls for the middle...

Thank you!  I will audition the UE6000.

I absolutely love my D2000's sound signature, but they are pretty much the polar opposite of portable.  Is there a circum-aural closed-back headphone that is close to their sound?   Some likely suspects? V-Moda M-100 Ultimate Ears UE6000/UE900 Sennheiser Momentum   If anyone has...

Could I use this cable to recable my Philips Citiscape Uptowns?  Just snip off the current cable above the control pod, snip the new cable in the same spot, splice together, solder and electrical tape?  ...

Hey, I'm also planning on recabling these headphones due to crazy channel imbalance caused by the volume slider.   Did you figure out which of the four exposed wires goes to what?

+1 for the Hear app.  It actually works with PC too, and a single purchase allows you to install on both, which I have.  I've been looking for a global EQ for a while now, as I'm listening more and more to sources like Pandora/Grooveshark/Spotify than iTunes nowadays. Quote:  

Just curious - what condition were your open box D2000s?  Truly "like new"?  Mine should be here next week.

Do these Xonar cards have a way in software to mute the headphone output?  I'll be alternately running headphones and the line-out jack to a speaker amplifier, and I'd hate to have to keep reaching behind the computer to plug/unplug the headphones.

So I may have gotten the last pair of open-box D2000's from Electronics Expo, as all of a sudden (immediately after I purchased) they're no longer searchable on the website.   Does anyone have experience with the NuForce Icon-2?  It's a DAC/Headphone Amp/Speaker Amp, I hope it's powerful...

So according to the Camelizer plugin for Chrome, Amazon's current $219 price is the lowest ever for the DT990 Premium 32 Ohm.  Is this as good of a deal as it seems?  The 250 and 600 ohm versions are $30 more ($250); is the difference in price worth it?   These would replace my AD700s for...

Got my SHE3580 yesterday from Amazon for about $9.  For the price they really are incredible.   I also have a pair of TF10s that have been my main earphones for a year or so now.  However, as they're *huge* it's impossible to wear the earwarmers Chicago winters demand while listening to...

Just want to put in my $0.02.  I, too, got a good deal on these from the Amazon sale.   First, a little background.  My first pair of high-end IEMs were SE530's which I loved and used for about 18 months when they were stolen.  Not able at that moment to drop another bundle on headphones I...
