    Sony WH-H910N discussion.

    I am looking at these (H910N) and H900N as well as XB900N. The prices available to me are: Sony WH-XB900N - $180 Sony WH-H910N - $180 Sony WH-H900N - $120 ($84 refurb.) Which would you get for this price? This thread gives 910N a lot of good criticism but I found some reviews describing bad...

    Purchase advice for wireless over-ear headphones, from a list!

    I'm looking for a pair of wireless BT headphones, over-ear, possibly ANC, and I have come up with the following list based on prices, preference and availability in my country (Sweden). In general items are a bit pricier and less available here than in US, so try to take that into account if you...

    Which BT headphone for around $200? Northern Europe

    I have been looking for BT headphone, preferably over-ear or on-ear. I will use it at office or home, possibly from/to office as well, not sure. I am not against buying second hand, but I am from Sweden so I am limited to that country or at least Europe if I consider that. I don't want to import...

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    Thanks, I'll take a look at those. Don't know really, I think I just took a liking to them. I think I saved the clip but it was so long ago and I've been using headphones since.

    Functional IEM's similar to JVC FXD70 availabe in EU

    I had a pair of JVC FXD70 a few years ago. But last time I ordered them, 2016, they came in DOA and when I returned them it seems the seller never received them in Japan. I don't even know if these are still available through import, but I don't really wanna go through that hassle again. So...

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    Are there any IEMs that can be fairly easily ordered to Europe that are similar to this line? Specifically similar to FXD70. I am not necessarily talking about audio here: they had a good fit in my ears and were incredibly functional with the cable clip etc. So anything that I guess is...

    [New] Philips Fidelio X1

    Is there anyway to make these headphones more clampy on your head? I've had mine for about 2 yrs, and initially found them uncomfortable so I stretched them out a bit. I haven't used them for quite a while but now I find them too loose.

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    I'm on my 2nd pair of HA-FXD70 with some foam earbuds from ebay, and I love them. I love the sound, I love the cable collector, I love the clip, I love the durability. I'm not even much of an audiophile, frankly. But when it comes to these IEMs, they have held up remarkably despite heavy use and...

    Are there any good IEMs or portable headphones with a Lightning connector?

    yeah but those are kinda expensive (although headphones with lightning connectors also seem expensive) and I would imagine my battery would drain if I had bluetooth on all the time and listened to music through it. I guess I could get a DAC instead, but I'd prefer a non-bulky option

    Are there any good IEMs or portable headphones with a Lightning connector?

    I dropped my iPhone and it messed up the 3.5mm jack a bit. It's deformed now and I have to use force to plug my headphones in, although the sound still works. I don't really know if it's repairable, I think the whole metal frame would have to be changed. I haven't checked out my possibilities...

    Lightning Cables - Official and Custom (welcomed).

    Hope this is the right thread. This is not DAC related but I figured you guys would know. I have an iPhone 5S with a messed up 3.5mm jack. I dropped it and ever since then I really have to push the 3.5 mm plug in with force, although the sound still works. Is there any way you could get a small...

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    Where would I buy the FXD70 for fastest shipping to Europe (Sweden)? They don't seem available in Europe at all. I bought them on ebay last time, still the place to go?

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    How does the FXD70's sound signature differ from FXD80's? I've had the FXD70's and I loved them. Not only the sound (it could've had a bit more bass, but I found it to be great overall), but the fit, comfortability and durability most of all. (Although they broke after 1 yr & 8 mo of care-free...

    Review: RHA MA-750 (one of the best sub $200 IEM's around)

    So, anyone know any good tips for these? The foam ones supplied are pretty good but I'm having trouble getting a decent fit in my right ear canal. I've tried the silicon ones but they don't quite cut it for me either.

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    Exactly what can the FRD80's remote do? Play/pause and forward? No volume control? Comparing the FXD70 vs the FXD80, would the latter be an upgrade in sound or just a move sideways (different signature)?
