    AKG K550 and Lawton Angle Earpads... am I doing it wrong?

    I've just replaced my aging AKG K550 earpads as I had gotten advice from Mark Lawton that the angle pads would solve the bass loss, seal and fit/stability issues that I and seemingly most people have found with the otherwise quite nice AKG K550s. I've put them on.. but I'm finding that ALL the...

    Can Con Sydney Australia 7.0 - Sunday 26 March 2017 -

    I'm very unlikely to be good exactly on the 25th of June but am usually good around then, as it is a family birthday date. But will be watching this space :)

    Can Con 6 ~ Impressions Thread ~ (27th February 2016)

    I'm personally in favour for Oct 17.. while 's a long time away, I don't really feel a lot has happened lately either to justify a new meet right away.   That being said, I'm not going to stand in the way of anyone who wants to get together (I hope to hold a home exhibition sometime for my...

    Sorry about that! I wasn't sure (and as is obvious, wouldn't know the difference either!). I took a guess.. leave it to me to have the wrong one. Thanks for the kind words - and even more your time, company and guidance through listening to your gear!! It was great. :)

    Can Con 6 ~ Impressions Thread ~ (27th February 2016)

    Hi everyone! I know this is a bit late but I put together a running diary of my experiences from Can Con 6. This was my third or fourth one attending and while I don't have as much to offer as the other attendees, I know my own understanding of the hobby, the products and also the social...

    I'll likely write more later, but I just wanted to say how much of an enjoyable day it was - still worth the trip down from Newy. :)   @hpz and @pkwak - you guys do a great job keeping this meet-up going every year, and I'm really grateful. Paul, you're a real hero for all the work you do and...

    Can Con 6.0 - Sydney Australia meet ~ 27th Feburary 2016 ~

    Feels like, as I sit here listening and comparing happily, making eye contact with the others as they do the same - that we should endeavour to set up a slack chatroom or something for these events :)

    Does anyone know of and/or have any velours that would be suitable for the A900x? I would love some recommendations, chance to trial, any assistance with putting them on. I'm kinda stupid/hopeless? But if not, no big deal. :)

    Can Con 6.0 - Sydney Australia meet ~ 27th Feburary 2016 ~

    I personally think this is the best sort of thing to go to if you don't have anything to bring or don't want to bring anything. Don't be intimidated by it, is all I mean.    It will be a decently long day, but basically just having so much available to try and talk about and play with without...

    I can bring Grado PS-500 JVC DX-700   and AKG K550 Shure SRH840 ATH-A900X Beyer DT1350   if anyone hasa  particular interest, otherwise I'll be keeping it light.   I likely will bring a laptop and an E07K.
