double liked and shared, thanks for the chance!

Quote:   This sounds like how I feel with my pro 900, BUT only when the cups are sitting too far back on my ears.  I always have to tell people who try mine out to adjust the position of the cups because it makes a surprisingly large changes in the sound.   Did you try adjusting the...

Saw the TBSE1 at Tuesday Morning a while back and held off at $50 then happened to be in the plaza today and dropped by again. I thought they were sold out until I was leaving the store and saw there was one left on a shelf right by the door. For $37 I couldn't resist at that point and snatched...

Interesting day seeing xb 500, pro 900, pro 650, and some sorta bose I think qc 15

With the release date drawing closer, can't wait to see finalized color schemes too.   Also for those that submitted pictures for the contest, are we allowed to redeem the 10% discount on a ppu?

Id' leave it hooked up and playing overnight/for the day and see if it opens up. Although I will say that the hfi-580 doesn't have a big boomy bass in comparison to vmoda's crossfade lp2 for example. For me, the hfi-580 has a controlled punchy bass presence which isn't overwhelming; it'll also...

So M-100's come with custom cut outs and 24k gold shields? Sweet deal But seriously, it would be interesting to see custom cutouts on shields available to all, although it doesn't sound like it'd be a very plausible option.    edit: ^I vaguely remember a post saying that cups with joints...

I ordered all my replacement parts from Frank at AKG and everything arrived very fast.  If you want to buy oem parts such as the foam, damper pieces, etc. I'd recommend giving him a call. http://www.akg.com/site/distributoren/powerslave,id,12,nodeid,28,_language,EN.html The parts list is...

Favorite genre is definitely Electronic with vocals at the moment. As someone else asked, are these circum-aural or supra-aural headphones? Thanks for the opportunity!

Wait a minute, I know this campus lol. Saw 2 sets of xb500 there recently.

Since my main concerns are having a dac and driving the two 600ohm akgs, I'm looking at several options right now.   So far it seems like a used nuforce hd would be a solid choice.   Also briefly read a bit on the audinst hud mx1 which doesn't seem like a bad choice either at $180 new...

Thanks for all the input, I'll look into these once I'm off work. Although portable is preferred, if it isn't really a viable option I'd entertain some semi-portable options as well. Something like the nuforce hd seems like it'd still be a good size. I'm avoiding anything big and not as easily...

Thanks for the suggestion, I feel like I may have read some of that thread.  The only problem is that I'm not sure how well it would be able to drive the k240 monitor & sextett.  If I remember right, there were some posts in a review thread for the leckerton mentioning that it doesn't power 600...

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'm taking a look at the nuforce and from what I see, please correct me if I'm wrong, it has to be powered through a plug adapter?   It looks interesting to use as a dac/amp for my laptop, but I'm leaning more towards something that can alternate as a portable amp...

Oh yeah, I always run the e11 set on the high power mode.  Personally, not worried about battery issues on the e11 either since the micca package came with a spare.
