    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    I'm looking for some input on a problem I'm having with these earbuds, a problem I have had since Day 1.  I actually got these earbuds over a year ago but stopped using them soon after.  I just came back to them and remember why I stopped using them.   It seems like the entire soundstage is...

    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    Hey guys I've had a pair of these sitting in my drawer for over a year now, and I was hoping you could help me finally use them.  I bought them in the Amazon sale that was either a year or two ago and when I got them, I remember never being able to get the fit right.  It always seemed like the...

    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    Just got mine today.  It takes a little effort for me to get the perfect fit with the Comply tips, but when I do, I absolutely love these phones.  They sound amazing.

    First real setup: Nuforce Icon HDP + HD650's? (best under $1000)?

    I would like to build my first real audio setup and keep it under $1000 including DAC, amp, and headphones.   I've been partial to Sennheiser's since they are what I have used for the past couple of years.  From from I read, the HDP is a great DAC/amp combo and would sufficiently drive the...

    Is there anyway to "test" the soundstage of headphones?

    I've had a pair of HD555's for about two years now, and I'm unsure if they have stopped working to their full potential.   It sounds to me that the sound stage has been shifted slightly to the left, but it very hard for me to tell.  I listen to a lot of live concerts and sometimes the mix can do...

    Sometimes it feels like I have IEMs in when I don't....normal?

    Sometimes it feels like I have IEMs in when I don't....normal?

    This if my first experience with IEMs. I have a pair of Klipsch S4s and I use the large oval tips. It is extremely comfortable, and I usually barely feel them. But sometimes when I'm not listening to music and don't have the IEMs in my ears, I sometimes get a short feeling that they are in my...

    Clash of the Titans: HJE900 vs. CK10 vs. Turbine Pro Gold

    Thanks. I just got S4s and I'm having sort of a mixed impression so far. They are some things I love about them...and others I'm not so sure. I think I'm gonna let them burn in for a week....and if I still don't love them, I'm gonna return them for a full refund and pick up the HJE900's. It...

    AD700 comfort (vs HD555)

    I will make two points: 1) The HD555's are ridiculously comfortable, I don't see anyway in which another headphone could improve over it...there have been literally tons of times where I have completely forgot I was wearing mine and started looking for them 2) I've have my HD555's for over...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Hey guys, do you think it is possible to build a decent setup for the HD650's with a couple hundred bucks? I would need a DAC/amp...is it doable? I've been reading a little...two things that popped out were the Musiland Monitor 2 DAC and Little Dot MKIII amp...

    Will I see a big difference with a DAC/amp with HD555's on my laptop?

    Definitely thinking about a uDac....if I eventually got HD650's, could I use them with the uDAC if I also got a dedicated amp?

    Will I see a big difference with a DAC/amp with HD555's on my laptop?

    I've had a pair of HD555's for a while, and I generally use my laptop (Dell Latitude D820) to play music on them. How much would the HD555's benefit from getting a DAC or amp? Which do I need? Both? I'm very new to audio equipment, so bare with me....what exactly is the difference between...
