I want to know the size of the SHURE factory tips - not the comply tips.

Looking to get some comply tips, trying to figure out what size I need. I use the middle sized tips that came with the headphones... Anyone have exact measurements?

I could have done a better job of what I was looking for.     Excellent sounding "albums" or "records" that are good to listen to the entire way through.    MorbidToaster got it right. More!

I'm not that old and I miss the concept of playing a record, or an album, from start all the way to the finish. Not the new pop stuff that has one or two tracks produced by some overpaid individual.    What are some of your favorite (and best sounding) albums you like to listen to?     ...

What am I missing? I've got some decent equipment and lots of appreciation for stuff that sounds great.... This feels like some rubbish stuff recorded in big fancy halls and someone actually bothered to do some left/right separation. 

I want to replace the coiled cable on a pair of Sennheiser HD280's    I am subject to your run of the mill information overload!    I just want some nice low(er) weight cable and a 3.5mm connector. I'm perfectly capable of soldering the connections/heatshrink/braid etc.    I'd like...

Bump. I also want to recable some 280's. I hate the heavy coiled cable.

I gave the 550 a second shot today. I really like them. I listened to all of the music that was built into the display and everything sounded great. Stuff from my ipod/e7 still sounded kind of harsh; but that could have just been them dicking with the inputs. Again, nobody around to pull the...

Thanks to everyone who's commented! @tdockweiler - I've got a pair of the HD280 Pro's. I've had them for....12 or 14 years maybe? I recently did the sticky tack mod. They're pretty nice cans for the price. I think you can find them for 79 bucks on newegg. My only gripe about them is that they...

I was there close to closing time and couldn't find anyone to help me. I think I'll go back tomorrow during the day and ask if they'll remove the headphones from the demo unit thing.    I'm guess that they have things cranked up to sound impressive to people who are mostly ignorant about hifi. 

I went in to check out some AKG550's and Sennheiser HD598's - Both of which they have attached to this wall mount listening station with 6 or 8 total headphones. You can plug in your own audio source, so I brought my iPhone and FIIO E7 along for the ride.      Everything sounded...
