    Blessing 2 and Blessing 2 dusk eq question

    for me, I had to put on some fairly large foam tips for my zeros, about 13.5mm foam tips, and I recently found out they are insertable in my ears without compressing them at all, so if I had to guess, my ears are on the large side, so size of the hole is not an issue unless it wants me to do...

    Blessing 2 and Blessing 2 dusk eq question

    are you able to eq a blessing 2 to match a blessing 2 dusk, and vice versa? I got salnotes zero, and I like them, to the extent that I stopped looking at headphones for an upgrade and instead am looking at iems, and I fell on timeless, the two blessing 2's and the variations. So im wondering...

    Reply to review by 'alidan' on item 'Moondrop Blessing 2'

    If you are able to compare these, I would love to know how they stack up against salnotes zero... I know, 20$ vs 300$ but hear me out, my only experience with iems tends to be on the cheap side, while my headphone experience is on the more expensive side. the zero these have been shockingly...

    Cheap iem to fit a need...

    Ok, my last iems were crap, i'm not going to pretend otherwise, they were sound liberty 94. while they were crap, they did show me that I can like iems, they were great for blocking sound if not good at canceling it, especially bass sounds like a box fan to the point that I wouldn't even know...

    software equalizers question

    Not sure if this is where it belongs but I don't see a better category. Ok so I tried to get EqualizerAPO64-1.2.1 to work, but I can't get it to function, and i'm extremely hesitant on screwing with audio drivers because of past experiences where I have had to go without any audio for a period...

    Is there a way to eq headphones and/or iems with a mic?

    Ok, long story short, I have a blue yeti and I would like to play audio through my headphones to the yeti to get a good idea on if i'm going to far or not far enough with an eq, currently I have it set up how I think it should be based on frequency charts for my headphones and iem, but if I...

    hd595 earpad replacement help

    Ok, I have a pair of hd595's and the ear pad is splitting open a a seam. I got it glued, it will likely hold for a good while, but I need a proper replacement. sennheiser proper is 30$ - I really don't want to pay for oem parts at this price when better is cheaper for other brands. Geekria is...

    Looking for headphone cable for diy.

    for the wires, I got a set of 30 gauge wires a while ago due to my brothers akg constantly breaking due to flexion damage on the inside, so I said screw it took all his wires out and replaced them with 30 gauge silicone wire, which are far more flexible than any cable/wire I ever came across...

    Looking for headphone cable for diy.

    I likely am going to go the hardwire route, however I have something interesting to try first. I got I think 7 or 8 different 2.5 to 3.5 adaptors that work, and one completely broke on me, I also have a headphone cable that the 2.5 jack died on me and nothing goes to the right headphone, but the...

    Looking for headphone cable for diy.

    To give a bit more detail, I'm going to replace the normal way a sennheiser hd 598 hooks up I think the official cable is a bit to expensive, and the replacement cables made for it are to fragile due to the way they are potted and how inflexible the wire is, it caused flexion damage which either...
