    New high-end headphone amps: Vorzuge VorzAMPpure and VorzAMPduo impressions and review thread

    Wow! 6 months since last post in this thread! What have I've been up to? As of a few weeks ago, my Vorzamp duo started discharging when not in use. It does this quite rapidly. It goes from full charge to empty over night, even when it's not in use  I thought it might be a battery issue, so I...

    Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread

    Before my left driver failed it started making a crackling noise when pressure was applied on the driver. If I for example added some (light pressure! Don't force it, because that is not good for the drivers!) pressure on the earcups when putting the headphones on the left driver would make some...

    Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread

    I have tried boosting using both hardware and software, but I can't get the effortles reach down low that I'm getting when I allow the drivers to breathe. And to me, when the seal is slightly broken the signature is just spot on without any SW or HW adjustments. I'll report my findings once I...

    Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread

    I've thought about cutting a piece of "marinade syringe" tube (thin metal tube) and sticking it under the back side of the pads. Feels pretty weird doing DIY mods on a 2k $ pair of headphones, but at least this would be totally reversible and I don't have to reduce the clamping force (really...

    Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread

    I have a question regarding the airtight seal of the pads combined with the fazor drivers. About a year ago, my left driver died on me, and since I live in Sweden, the driver replacement process has been a long one... Anyway, I got both my drivers replaced a couple of months ago. The were ofc...

    Perfect Sound Dido D902, another one to watch?!

    No interest in these? Been googling impressions and pictures nonstop since I found them a couple of days ago! I find the EXTREMELY appealing in the aesthetics department! Don't really understand why you basically have to buy 2 pairs of headphones minus one headband to get these. I'd like for...

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80-Ohm Thread

    Anyone using the Dekoni memoryfoam leather pads with ther DT770's? I joined a Massdrop on these, but paypal screwed me over so I'm not getting mine  Still interested in hearing impressions if anyone has them. I like the Alpha pads, but they are a bit bulky. I'f you have a massdrop account...

    The JVC HA-S500 thread.

    The ES7 replacement pads are basically identical to the S500 ones.

    The NEW ATH-ES700..

    Highly recommend doing this! In addition to making the headphones far more comfortable, it also gives them a more premium feel.

    Speaker amps for headphones

    I also have a 2 x 12W into 8 Ohm amp and it's way to powerful for my LCD3f straight off the binding posts! No play on the volume control what so ever. Mine is a Elekit 22 hybrid, which should be quite similar to yours. I'd suggest you start by adding a 10 Ohm resistor in parallel. That ALMOST...
