Is this a good idea? I don't see my self needing this length of cable. I am thinking of re-terminating the cable and actually I am thinking of going for an angled jack. What are your opinions? Am I better off buying a second shorter one ?

Suggest some great tracks or albums that would change my life on Christmas Eve to listen to during and after the party.

comment please on extension, tightness and clarity and of course extension.

Any options to be able to move around the house without removing my headphones or having long cables on the set? Out of my remaining pairs of headphones, this one is my favorite. I mostly listen to my AirPods Pro for practical reasons. But if there was a way to mod those to wireless I guess...

I have been a headphone-phile since 2003 and I've been a member ever since. 18 years have passed and after numerous headphone adventures I have gradually lost interest. As I grew up my free time has become more and more precious and scarce. Family also requires me to be more in touch with my...

Well, actually I am not trying to start a VS thread. But here is what I am looking for: I am looking for a great headphone up to 600 euro used. I appreciate the Sennheiser mids. I currently own a pair of HD650s and a pair of DT770 pro. I like the low bass impact of the Beyer's but I feel like...

from some of the better IEM that come with high end galaxy samsung phones. My samsung pair is dual driver and sounds pretty good. I was wondering if buying a hi end pair of IEMs to use un amped with my laptop and phone is a good or bad idea.

Could somebody perhaps explain the technical difference to me?    Do those two units have a different amp in some way? Does it mean that the E17 has a greater voltage swing and current abilities when powering headphones?     Does this spec mean that the E17 could be able to drive headphones...

Which ones do you suggest with the following criteria:   -Low Price -Ability to Decently Drive the HD800s -Good DAC for 16/44   My laptop besides being unable to drive the HD800, it has a very low sound quality. So using just an amp is not an option.       Currently I own a Fiio E12...

Do you miss the medium? Or do you reminisce the old times associated with it?   Back then LPs, CDs , MDs and Cassettes were in our everyday routine.  Collecting the discs was something special. Going to record shop every other day was a nice habbit for me and I really miss that. Downloads have...

How can a true 24bit recording fit in such a small disk and take up the same space as the 16bit recording? 

the spec says up to 150ohms unlike the previous Alpen model. Has anyone tried them with hd800s?    At that price range, what would you recommend as an amp/dac combo that will sound significantly better than the laptops output?

Please comment on how visceral bass is if you've owned-heard the HD800 vs any of the aforementioned STAX. 

I read a variety of opinions about the amplification of the HD800s and it seems that most people claim that the Sennheiser flagship cannot reach its full potential (or anywhere near that) unless they are amplified by a good matching high end amp.    Are there any bang for buck options for the...

Deep (like DT770) and punchy lows with a decent soundstage (at least similar to HD600)   The HD580/600 seem to roll off at deep lows, but their midrange is not recessed to the degree the beyers are.    I love the mids the Senn HD600 have. Actually if they had deeper bass like the Dt770s or...

Could you list the High End headphones you consider euphonic? 

Any suggestions? Do the QUAD ESL speakers come close to the LAMBDA sound?

The idea can be applied to various little DIY amp kits from ebay or your own home built kits.     http://www.ebay.com/itm/DIY-Kit-RA1-Headphone-Amplifier-Kit-Power-AMP-Kit-For-DIY-/150942801493?pt=US_Amplifier_Parts_Components&hash=item2324e45e55   This is the one I bought in...

I will be doing a project with the aim of making an amp enclosure similar to the one of the RA1.   The amp I will place inside it will be the RA1 clone sold on ebay for 20 dollars. I just bought it and made it and it sound great with RS1!!!         Is anybody interested in me...

Ranging from tube cmoys to more complex designs. Has anybody built one? Or has anybody heard one?

Especially  unamped? Or is it waste of money? Any exceptions perhaps? 

I hear they have pretty fast transients resembling electrostats in that respect. I really love the lambda sonic signature. Would the HD700s sound anything like electrostatics? I particularly enjoy the lambda's mids, and the airy treble in the sounds of acoustic guitars.   Another thing I...

I have this ipod and when it is completely off and I start it up it might take up to a few seconds (a few button hits to power up). The 6G used to turn on instantly. When I turn it off again it starts up immediately. When I leave it off for a few hours it behaves like I said in the beginning. Is...

I just ordered a 5G refurb. with a new Toshiba 120GB hard drive and a new battery and shell casing. I wasn't too happy with the quality of my Classic 80GB so I am thinking of this as an upgrade actually. But I won't actually know till I hear.... Also, I am thinking of diymodding it...

Is anybody here addicted to caffeine?? Details pls...
