AKG K501 love...
More than five and a half years since the last contribution to this thread... I received my second-hand pair of AKG K501 a few days ago. What a classic! I cannot hear the lack of bass that is often complained about, everything just seems to be in correct proportion. Moreover, the midband is...- anuenlil

Absolute best budget earbuds?
For my money, Dunu DN12 is still the king of (ultra-)budget.- anuenlil

Wireless Surround Headphones - Sony, AKG, Pioneer, Philips?
Just picked up a mint SBC-HD1500 U set. Surprisingly competent, both in surround and stereo mode! Also, the headphone amplifier (two 6,3mm outputs) isn't half bad, really. Bargain.- anuenlil

Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread
Back on topic: I rate the HD595 and HD598 particularly high on comfort: no headphone I know comes close to being so easy to wear, IMO.- anuenlil

etymotic hf5 isolation?
Thank you for the feedback! Clearly, experiences with the triple flanged tips are vastly different. I'll keep trying them (perhaps there is a magic trick I haven't gotten yet). Goodvibes's experiences roughly match mine, in that the experience of Etymotic tips bears a passing similarity to sex...- anuenlil

Pioneer XDP-100R
Agree, I have had mine for a month now and am rather impressed with its build quality. Somehow I'm less enamored by the battery autonomy compared to an IPod Classic, but I suppose all that Android stuff and the sound quality have to take their toll somewhere. I get about 12h without recharging...- anuenlil

etymotic hf5 isolation?
Dear all, When i first tried the much-acclaimed etymotic hf5 with the triple flanges that appear to be standard setup, it was horrible. I now realize that it was down to not achieving a proper seal, which i have never been able to do unless with the foam inserts instead. Is this normal? Are my...- anuenlil

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Your experience totally matches mine. Driven by Graham Slee Solo UL here, it's just so effortlessly natural in a way only the hd650 can be (apart from an hd580 :-) )- anuenlil

NECO SOUNDLABS PORTABLE V.2 AMP
Agree with the praise of portable Neco's. I have a v2, not only does the charged battery last forever but it rivals some seriously good desktops.- anuenlil
