I am planning on getting a x3 soon but am doing my homework first. The headphones I currently have and will be using are: Shure se530 iem, Grado SR 80 , Son:)hy MDR-V6 and Loss Portapros. This is my current list. In the future there will be others. I think I have chosen a quality source. Given...

Last night I fell asleep on my left side of my head and when I awoke, there was no sound out out of the left earpiece. So, I figured wax, and used the cleaner tool to clean it. The sound came back, but it is not nearly as loud as the right ear. Could the wax be so far down in there that it is...

Something terrible happened to me yesterday, and I was wondering if it has ever happened to anyone else and how you prevented it. I was staying at a friends house overnight, and I always take my Denon's and not my se530's. Well, I fell asleep with the earphones on, and in the morning, the...

for the past 1/2 hour, I have been listening to them both with cd's on a sony d-nf340 as the source, and also listening to mp3's on my laptop using winamp. I am using the total airhead amp. Here is what I can see so far. The sound is much smoother than my denon ac551's, and the bass is...

I just got a pair of comply foams for my Denon 551's. I was hoping it would make the sound better. What I have noticed is that now the fit is better, the isolation is better, but the bass has been muddied, although a bit tighter, and the highs have diminished, as compared to the silicone...

Hi, I will soon be receiving the total airhead I recently bought. I intend to use it using the line out from my portable cd player and then plugh my earphones into it. No problem. But, I also like to listen to the music on my computer. I have a laptop, and there is no line out. Just...
