    Looking for westone 3 replacement tips

    Hey guys, I lost my favorite tips for my westone 3s (mid size olives) and was wondering where to get replacement tips for them online. This was also a chance for me to start thinking about some um-56s. Opinions seem to vary but I'm thinking about taking the plunge. Anyone know of a cheap place...

    Lighter headphones in the 100-200 dollar range

    Hi guys, Long time since I've posted but I'm looking for headphones for a friend and he's looking for some headphones in the 100-200 dollar range. I lent him my denon d2000s and he feels that they're a bit too heavy but he likes the way they sound. He says he listens to anything with a beat and...

    Earphones ~$30

    Hi guys, I haven't bought headphones in this price range for a while so I was wondering if I can get some advice for my friend. I've been telling him skull candies are terrible and he's been happy with them but they finally broke on him so he asked me to find him a set of headphones that are...

    Amp for D5000/k701/hd650/

    Hi guys, I currently have a Shanling PH100 and a mini^3 amp and since my experience with amps is limited to only these two amps, I was wondering how do you guys think it pairs with my headphones: MD5000, D2000, K701s, HD650s. I don't have any other amps to compare them to so I was wondering how...

    Japanese Amazon d7000 review

    Hi guys, Since there aren't really many reviews up for the d7000 yet, I'm in the process of translating the d7000 reviews from amazon.jp. I haven't really given back to the head-fi for all the recommendations and help the community has given me yet so I felt that I finally should. I've been...

    K701, HD650, D2000 scaling question

    Hi guys, I have all three but I had some questions regarding scaling. I have both the hd650s and k701s but regrettably with my current setup, they can't beat the d2000s. Is this normal? I currently have a EMU 0404 -> Shanling ph100 as my source and amp. I know the k701s and especially the...

    Jack of All Trades?

    Hi guys, My headphone collection is growing and regrettably I still only have my emu 0404 -> Shanling PH100 and the emu 0404 -> mini^3 as my source and amp . I just picked up the 650s so my collection has become: hd650s, d2000s, k701s, re1s, and the ms1s so I'm thinking about expanding my amp...

    k701s vs. d2k woes -- md5ks?

    I have both the k701s and the d2000s right now and I really don't know what to do because I like both of them. Having bass in headphones is soooo nice but the mids in the k701s are to die for. Which one do you guys like more and is there any way to get the best of both worlds? How do the markled...

    Recabling Advice for D2000

    I just got the D2000s maybe a month ago and I'm loving them but reading so much about how much they improve after a recable, I'm kind of considering recable now. I find it kind of hard to spend 170 on a cable though as my headphones costed me only about $190. As compared to the APS recable, how...

    Static problem =(

    Hi guys, Under my current setup, Computer -> E-MU 0404 -> Blue jeans TRS to RCA Cable -> Shanling PH100 -> d2000/k701s, I'm getting this annoying static/noise in the background which gets louder as I turn the volume of my amp higher but is independent of the main output nob of my emu 0404. I...

    New Ipod Earphones with dual drivers

    Just saw these today on engadget and thought I'd share. They sport dual drivers which you usually don't find in this price range. Hopefully these apple buds don't suck. Here's the link: Official: iPod nano reaches 4G, looks tall for its age - Engadget

    AKG K701 setup

    Hi guys, I just bought the e-mu 0404 as a source for my akg k701s at music123 for 170 dollars using the 15% off coupon and am currently looking for an amp to replace my mini^3 for my akg k701s. I'm looking for something rather inexpensive as I just bought the 0404s, something hopefully in the...

    Next upgrade for AKG K701

    Hi guys, I just bought myself the AKG k701s and I heard that these guys aren't so easy to drive. I have a mini^3 amp right now which I don't think will make the cut given what everyone says. Also, my source is a zune and my computer's onboard soundcard. I need some advice for my next buys. I'll...

    Regarding DT770/250

    I was wondering if these headphones can get darth treatment. I bought these recently and haven't enjoyed them as much as I wanted to. I was wondering if I can give it new life with Larry's mod.

    Need help with next purchase!

    I recently bought the Beyer DT770pro/250 and I'm honestly not enjoying it as much as I wanted to even with the leather pads. (send me a pm with a reasonable offer if you guys are interested ~120 bucks with leather pads shipped in the US would be great!) Around the same time, I picked up a mini^3...

    Where to buy portable amps

    Hi guys, I'm looking for my first portable amp and I have decided on either the mini^3 or the minbox e. The problem is that I don't know where to buy them. It seems like if I want the mini^3, the person I should contact is misterx. Do I just send him a pm? How long does it usually take him to...

    RE1s with amp vs. triple.fi advice

    Hi guys, I'm currently looking for some IEMS and have decided on either the triple.fis or the re1s with an amp. I currently don't own an amp and thought it would benefit my allesandro ms1s a bit also so I'm currently leaning towards the re1s. I know the triple.fis generally sound better than...

    Recommendations on next buy (willing to spend ~400)

    Hi guys, I'm a long time lurker and this is my second post here at head-fi. I'm pretty new to the scene but from advice here at headfi, I've tried out some of the sub 100 dollar headphones and earphones. I have the jvc marshmellows which I thought was pretty muddy even after the kramer mods...
