yay, dudes i CLEAR my ears often enough don't worry and yes: european mp3players or rather german ones have a fixed max-volume... i don't hear music that loud but at that volume my mp3player loses highs and lows (as said above -.-) and of course im gonna listen to them a further while...

please read the whole thread... we (or just i) got to another point considering about an amp... about pads: i'll try the 414 modded somewhen, they're not that expensive so it's worth a try and i leave my stock pads stock

hum.. that govibe seems to be a lot more expensive... also i don't really know how to pay the money to "gary" because i'm used to the europen currency called euro and i also don't have a credit card...

well, thanks for the advice, but these are not my first pair of headphones, just almost the best i ever had. i just don't want to make them better, but louder because my small mp3player is to weak to supply them with enough power! so i'm currently considering about an amp, you know? and i...

hm... gary is his nick? sounds very interesting.. does he ship to germany? (i don't think he's a german bloke) what do both cost? how do i realise that the battery is worn off? (don't know how to say that in english, sorry)

problem: i live in germany... 50 bucks, that's nothing... what does this (or what do these amps) amp increase else than volume?

about 260 :P but i'm a german fellow

what are these bowl pads? i got no amp (neither the money) and i got a cheap mp3player for most of my listening experience... they're for outdoor use

hi, got my pair of ms1's last friday and i was really suprised about the sound. i was just wondering, how i could just improve that experience due to so many readings through threads about these headphones. is it possible to make them circumaural? what else could i do?
