Hello, I just got my Alessandro MS1 back from a recable. The tech installed the Mogami 2947 coaxial cable, which is rated at 75 ohms. I am not very educated in sound science, so I do not know if this matching is right. The MS1 is 32 ohms. Thank you all in advance!

Guys, should I exchange my ATH-ESW9s (used) for a pair of mint-condition Dunu Titan5 s? I like my ESW9s, but someone offered me a mint-condition Dunu Titan 5 in exchange for it. I like IEMs. Should I do it? Cheers!

Hello head-fiers! I am going to the USA in a few months, so I will take the opportunity and get a new pair of headphones. I currently own a Grado SR325is, and it is my only headphone (ditched away my DT990 Pro, as I couldn't stand the treble). I simply love the Grados so much for the genres I...

Hello guys. Some of you know how much time I spent on researching what earphone/headphone I would purchase in July. Well, time has come, and I got myself the Yuin PK1 and a Headsix, thus spending the same money I would spend on the Triple.Fi 10 Pro alone. Now that I have my PK1, I loved it so...

Guys, I ordered a HeadSix and I'm wondering how will I firmly attach it to my iPod. It doesn' come with velcros or straps.. where can I buy a strap or some velcro kit like the ones from AirHead? Thanks

Guys, I've noticed this more than 10 times since I started reading Head-Fi. Some old posts containing links are dizzy: the links point to different things. Here is an example: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/yui...thread-227027/ I'm sure Kramer didn't want anyone to think about cheeses...

Hello guys. Posted this here because it involves Full-Sized and Portable phones, so I thought it made more sense to post here than on the portable section. After lurking around for some months, I've almost made my decision on new 'phones. I will buy the SR225 or the Yuin PK1. Which would be...

Which one would you guys pick for audio quality? I'm gonna use a Triple.Fi most probably. Thank you (obs: feel free to suggest other players from the same price range.)

The new iPhone 3G was announced today at the WWDC 2008, and will be released in July 11th, in 22 countries, and go to another 70 countries after some months. Reading about the key features, I depared with two great things for us head-fiers: "a flush headphone jack, dramatically improved audio...

Guys, I currently own a 5.5gen iPod and a Sony Walkman w580i cellphone, which I never used as a mp3 player because I have only 512mb of memory on it, currently. But in curiosity, I put some albums in, and it sounded way better than my iPod... clearer, and with a sweet sweet bass that made my...

I would like to know if there is any retailing website that sells the MS2i, accepting credit card checkout on their website... I would like to purchase one of those, but my father won't trust a website like Alessandro's, so it would be nice if they were sold in a better store site... Grados are...

Hello! I am currently debating on the best can around $200-250, and I narrowed down to HD595, SR225 and the AH-D2000 (which has dropped in price from $350 to $200-230) These are all low-impedance cans, and I plan to use them directly from my X-Fi XtremeMusic, which is an above-average source...

Hello guys I am pretty sure about purchasing the Grado SR225 instead of 325i, because of the price difference and the sonic characteristics of both.. SR225 attracted me more. As of it's $100 price difference, my budget allows me to purchase a HeadRoom Total AirHead portable amp (I would prefer...

Hi guys! I have a $400-450 budget, and I want to purchase the best for personal music listening.. that means, no speakers. Thats why im here at head.fi Anyways, I thought this week about purchasing a $200 SR-225 plus a $180-200 Super.Fi 5 Pro, and maybe a Westone ES cable to tweak it. This...

Hello all. I have already posted lots of IEM comparison threads, this will be my last one, hopefully. In my journey for my next IEM, I've narrowed down some interesting ones, and they are: Q-Jays, SE530, UM2, and Triple.Fi. What I want to ask here is: What are the sonic differences between...

EDIT: This thread now is more than just a discussion about the ranking. Seems like it's covering all about Sound Quality on DAPs. Feel free to discuss everything about it. Hi! This ranking was released on the french website Generationmp3.com: 12 baladeurs MP3 classés suivant leur...

Hello all I'm reading some reviews, but people speak mostly about design and screens, and forget about SQ, what Head.Fi loves most. I currently own a 80 gig 5.5 iPod, and i'm not very satisfied with the sound quality (mainly bass control). How would it perform against the 80 gig Zune? I know...

Hi guys! I was going to purchase a $350 Triple.Fi, but I realized that I can have a full sized $200 arounder can plus a $100 amp for the same price. Actually, K701 is $250 at amazon and HeadRoom Total AirHead portable AMP is $99, so It's the same price. I'm here to ask if the airhead is a...

Hello! This may sound like an unfair match, I know both are in very different price ranges... After thousands of hours reading about se530 vs triple.fi, i decided to go ultimate ears, for several reasons. But I also read about the Q-Jays, and they attracted me because of the price and how...

Hello! I wanted to know which portable players have the best synergy with UE Triple.Fi 10 Pros and, if possible, why is that so. Im very interested on Cowon D2 and the Sony A720 line, but any other options are welcome. Ty!

Helloes! I will purchase one of those two IEMs, and I've read enough comparations thread to know that one is better for a kind of music and vice versa... Since I listen to lots of different kinds, I still can't decide! So, I'm making a water-drop here: Which one will sound better with...

Hi! I'm looking for the best headphones around $300, and I was almost convinced to purchase the UE Triple.Fi IEM, but I'm also considering full-sized cans because I dont need much portability... So, what goes on here is only sound quality. Which one performs better? Triple.Fi or ATH-ESW9? I'm...

Helloes. I've made a thread before, but this one is more specific... I simply want to know the best cans I can get around $200, maybe a little more (or less?). As a source, I've got an X-Fi XtremeMusic and an iPod 5.5gen, no amps. Simply as that. Musical taste is varied, but mainly hard rock...

Hello Headfiers! I'm about to purchase a new headphone. I currently have an iPod 5.5gen w/ Sony MDR-EX90s for portable use, and I also use them on my PC with a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic soundcard, no amps on either. I like the sound, but I do realize I could get a lot more. I was...

Hello Head-fiers. I've always read the threads here, and I enjoy this forum a lot! I currently own a pair of Sony's EX90 and use them with my 80gb 5.5g iPod. Im planning to purchase a pair of UE's Super.Fi 5 Pro and I would like to know how better they are comparing to the EX90s, in most...
