In regards to recommended equipment for either the LCD-2 or 3(I have the 2's), I use the headphone output of my Oppo blu ray player and it sounds great. I don't know why the headphone cord has four separate conductors though, when the plug has only three (left, right, and common negative). If...

Yes, I can totally relate. You want to think that you're getting your money's worth out of your purchase. It's hard to justify a $500 pair of headphones when they're sitting collecting dust, haha....

I must say that your statements were quite "educational" to me.   Firstly, I had no idea that I was immature because I enjoy healthy amounts of bass in my music at the age of 46. I owe you a debt of gratitude for opening my eyes to that fact.   Secondly, you've made me aware that good bass...

I found an interesting pair of tips that work really well. They are like two in one, double stacked so that the first slips over the drivers and the second gets in deeper into the ear canal for improved perceived bass response. To tame the treble, I just pulled out the little wire mesh...

Are the bi flanges the ones that I'm using, that look like the old rubber ear plugs, with two bowl shaped flanges on one central tube? They came with my 600's.  There were two sets of them, both the same size, in the box the earphones were in. Y'know what though? After finding how much I dig...

I just got mine today and am enjoying them immensely as I type! It'll be a tough choice between these and JVC's ha-fx850. I like that the re600 has flatter treble, but it needed a little boost in the bass department (just up to 3 on my fiio x3 instead of 2). Does anyone know, by the way, if...

Are you talking about for home or travel? For home use, I like the sound straight out of my Oppo blu ray player headphone out, or my (admittedly el-cheapo) Bravo tubed headphone amp, which can drive any headphone with authority to spare.

Thanks a lot! I already have them on order, and will sell the ones that I like lesser of the two on usaudiomart.  I'm hoping I'll like the re600 more, because I could get more money for the hafx 850!

Thank you for the comparison! I have the 850's and love them, but the treble is a bit "treblesome" at times, so if the re600's are more neutral that's great. They won't be used jogging anyway... mainly during tv shows my wife watches that I don't like (Hell's Kitchen, etc.) haha...

Hi, and thanks for the in-depth review! Are you familiar with JVC's HA-FX 850, and if so, do the 600s best them in your opinion? Thanks!

Not quite certifiably, but enough to have fun, baby! ;0}

 Any time I have to remove a small amount of lint or hair, I just take some scotch tape and roll it around my fingers sticky-side-out and keep touching the offending material until it's all stuck to the tape. Works great for sweaters, coats, etc. although for larger items of course your roller...

  First, I wire-tied the rubber strap to the wire arches to get it into my comfort zone, then added this pad.

I have one of those for my Grado 325is in yellow, to match my yellow flat pads. Here's what I did to my Quincy Joneses: (See info. below)     First though, I used a couple of cable ties to cinch that annoying rubber strap to the wire arches to make for a more comfortable fit. Mary's...

Mine aren't really vintage, but I have a pair of JVC "Dynamic Super-A" class RX-817V receivers that are top notch, and I've had them for nearly 20 years. Their rated output is conservatively stated as being 105 watts/channel, while maintaining distortion levels at a whopping .007%. That's 1/4th...
