Mine have shipped! Thanks Todd!!! ************************************** Todd The Vinyl Junkie ------------------------------------------------------ Order Number: 5672 Date Ordered: Mon, May 18, 2009 at 11:59:48 PM The comments for your order are: Your order will be shipping July...

Just placed my order Todd. Thanks! I thought I was happy with my HF-1 and would never need to upgrade...

Blerg! I've been away from Head-Fi for a few weeks and come back to this madness! Ordered. Much to the disdain of my wallet.

I'm using a Meizu M6 (older SP version, before the SL) as a FLAC player. IMO, most of the firmware issues don't apply if you're just going to play FLAC files. And actually, right out of the box, you probably won't notice many issues at all.

I was also having a hard time with the fit (kept slipping out) of my PK1 and PK2. I put on the normal yuin pad, and then slipped another yuin donut pad over it. Now I get a much better seal, more bass . Depending on the size of your ear, this may be worth trying.

Bump! I'm also wondering if anyone has tried these two together...

I got my PK1 earlier this week and... Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Amazing earphones. Worth every penny, and then some. With an Entech 205.2 and Perreaux SXH1, I'm actually getting a lot of bass.

#196. Wow. And they're still breaking in...

I have all three of these headphones and this is how I would rate them in order of less to more isolation: 3. AT A900 2. AKG 271s 1. Senn HD280 Hope that helps. The only thing I've heard that has more isolation than the HD280 are my Shure E2Cs...

I just pulled my buttons off my 325...and was wondering about using a hairdryer (on low setting) to warm up the glue and make it easier to pull off? Bad idea? Would the heat damage the headphones in any way? I really don't want to remove the cups...but I would like to get these unsightly glue...

I have unported beta c-pads and thought they de-emphasized the highs on my sr60s. So I was thinking of getting the 325i or 325 to get some of that back. Ended up finding silver 325s for about $160 on audiogon, seller said they were only a few months old. I think they sound great with the c-pads...

You could also just run your 6.1 computer speakers in a 2.1 config (don't hook up the extra speakers until you have room). I did that for a while with a Cambridge 4.1 setup... I never tried stacking them like you're describing...but I guess it wouldn't hurt to try... I think that's one of...

I have an NAD 304 integrated amp from the mid 90s. I used to use it with NHT SuperZeros and I thought the combo sounded great. I also used it with some NHT SuperTwos (another great sounding combo). I think a newer NAD integrated amp would go great with your SB3s. If you need something more...

I've stuffed as much cotton as is humanly possible into the earcups, and the bass impact is still not there. But UNFORTUNATELY my wife was bored the other day when I was doing this mod...and before I knew it, she had snipped one of the DADS donut-shaped pieces of foam into about 50 pieces, 15 of...

I've gone from 5 cottonballs per earcup to about 9...and the bass is returning. Still not as much as there was before, but it is does sound tighter and more accurate. Think I'm going to have try squeezing in 2-3 more per cup...

That makes sense. Like stuffing a subwoofer enclosure with polyfill... Isn't there some kind of formula to determine how much stuffing should be used, depending on the volume of the enclosure? Wonder if that would work for headphones...but then I guess a headphone is a full-range speaker...

I got my beta c-pads last night. Thanks again Larry!! Snapped on to my SR60s with no problems... Comfort is great, although I think I lose a little of the swivel-movement of the cups with the c-pads attached. That leads to a less secure fit. Less clamping force? I'm trying to bend my...

Thanks Tyson! I was thinking, the foam donut is pretty thick, and the amount of cotton I put in doesn't come even close...so time to open it back up and stuff it! Mega, I lost almost all of the lower bass slam, and what little there was...not sure if I could call it tight? I found the mids...

I'm very curious to see Tyson's work...I just did the mod last night, and I'm wondering if I used too much or too little cotton (I used about 5 balls per earcup). I got the boost in mids, but I think I've lost a lot in the bass regions...

This place decimated my wallet... Hehe...in order... 1. Grado SR60 (but wanted something comfier) 2. Koss KSC-35 (but wanted something more detailed) 3. AKG 271 (shoulda stopped here) 4. Koss Portapro (for the wifey) 5. Senn590 (wanted something open and comfy) 6. Beyer DT770...

I was wondering if maybe one of you could post some pictures of the A900's with the new A1000 pads? I've been seriously thinking about doing that upgrade too, but $50 for pads from Audiocubes is kinda steep. BUT, if I see what they look like, I might be persuaded...

Thanks bg4533! Worked like a charm. Unfortunately, while stuffing it all back together, I dislodged one of the wires on the left earpiece. I was able to resolder it, but it was quite a pain to strip the jacket off that tiny wire. Ok...so how does it sound? Right now, I'm unimpressed. I'm...

I've tried comfies, bowls, and flats on my SR-60's, and actually find that I like the flats best on them. For me, the bass was stronger (but not boomy) and the highs seemed more detailed.
