    PFE - one earphone louder than the other

    i had this problem with my PFEs and it ended up being the filter, but since you have checked that I would contact the manufacturer again. I ended up losing the PFEs and ordered the Westone 1 instead for about the same price.

    AKG 272 HD

    the 272hd run nicely out of my laptop and ipod touch without an amp but an amp will bring them to another level. I have gotten out of the whole portable amp idea, desktop amps (like the hifiman ef2) are just much better for these headphones. definitely still quality out of an ipod. the bass will...

    REVIEW: Head-direct.com HiFiMan EF2 tube Hybrid Amp with USB DAC

    Just ordered mine today! I am excited to hear it with my AKG K272HDs. I am sure it will sound better than the Nuforce Icon Mobile. Ordered an Ipod Lod to RCA as well but I will be listening mostly from my laptop through the USB DAC. Down the road I hope to upgrade the tubes and get a DAC.

    Studio Monitors: The comfort edition

    akg k271 mkII or 272hd are nice. I wear glasses and I think they are a nice fit in terms of comfort. Pretty good sound isolation.
