    DIY Headphone pad inquiry

    I have some DT770s with extremely worn and flat pads (I don't have large ears, but they're close enough to touch the driver pad-- I've tried stuffing the edges with tissue, which helps but eventually gives me a headache).  I've seen pad mods before, but instead of the porous material that's...

    Anyone ever hear of an x-fi "Hendrix"?

    My friend knows someone who can get me a "Creative X-FI "Hendrix" OEM" for $15 ea. I couldn't really find any information on the cards but from what I could find, I'm guessing that they're cards that come with premade computers (HP, Dell, and Alienware use them). They're pretty cheap so I'd be...

    Favorite snacks?

    I bought a bag of Snyders of Hanover Honey Mustard and Onion Pieces a while ago and just popped the bag open and I gotta say that they're probably the most addicting snack I've ever had! I couldn't stop munching on them until there were no more left; I then proceeded to head over to Amazon and...

    Zero Amp/Dac static :[

    So I've had my Zero for about three months now and just recently noticed some static (sounds very similar to pink noise) when I turn the volume knob past about 25% I couldn't really notice it before unless I turned it up to 50-60%+ but now the threshhold is way lower and it's sort of getting...

    Anyone try out the DT770 leatherette pads?

    I wanted to grab some DT770pros and was wondering if anyone could comment on the leatherette pads included from the Beyer outlet store link I've always been a fan of the velor since I find them to be very comfortable. If they end up being really cheap and peeling, I'd rather pick up a used...

    Finally back in the market for some new cans!

    A few months ago, I sold my 05 consumer DT770s to fund books for schooling and have been using my KSC75s exclusively. I love them but I've finally been able to save up enough money to grab a new set of cans and I'd like to ask you guys for some advice! I really wanted to wait until CanJam so...

    Cleaning pads?

    Does anyone have any suggestions for cleaning headphone pads or cushions? Specifically, the velour ones that come with Beyers? I think they cost between 30 and 40 dollars to replace with new ones and just don't feel like paying it XD I clean my KSC75 pads with detergent and warm water and I was...

    Question about soundcard to DAC

    I bought a Zero a while ago and recently I've been running it through my Audigy2zs via coaxial because I wanted to take advantage of the soundcard's mixer. Everything sounds great at all neutral settings, however I noticed when I pushed the bass up on the mixer, the audio would become...

    A little head-fi inspired idea... plausible?

    So I was reading in the Headphones (full-size) forum and someone was wondering about places to demo headphones. Then I had an idea-- would we be able to set up a google-earth style interface to search for points of interests? That way people can physically see the distance between them and a...

    Shure SCL3s on sale

    Beginner question :[

    I just set up my Zero and am using a usb>optical to run it from my computer. This might be a dumb question but is it normal for my headphones to work only when I have constant sound running (such as a music/movie)? Whenever I start some media, the Zero makes a clicking noise and when I stop, it...

    Amp for my DT770

    So I just picked up my DT770s last week and my Zero today. I can't say I'm disappointed but I thought the DT770s would have deeper bass. I know I haven't properly burned them so I'm looking forward to that but would a proper amp (currently using the Zero's amp atm) give me that extra effect...

    Zero or LD MKIII

    I didn't know where to ask this so I thought I'd try here. I'm starting up with a pair for DT770s (as my computer as the source) and I was wondering whether I should try out a Zero with DAC first or a LD MKIII. I really only have enough in my budget for one so I was wondering If the DAC was...

    Looking for a few answers and a bit of advice

    Hey guys. I've been hanging around here for a while... actually, closer to an unhealthy amount over the last week (but I'm sure that's normal) Anyways, I'm planning to pick up my first set of headphones, the DT770s, and I've been doing some frantic research trying to figure out what to pick...
