    bluetooth controller

    ok, bare with me...   I have an iPhone, which connects to a C&C portable headphone amp via the iPhone port (not jack), to which I connect my Grado SR225i headphones. I used to use a bose headset with in-line mic and music control. I miss this functionality greatly.   What I want to be...

    Your first eargasm...

      hehe - another set of multiples with my SR225i grados and shostakovich no.5 plan on getting a C&C amp this afternoon, so i'm looking at a very exhausting afternoon for the ears later... ;)

    Your first eargasm...

    Quote: i totally agree with this. the in ear phones are great fun to listen to. Just a really nice sound. Nothing special to write home about, but just a very pleasing feeling. I was just digging the comfort i gained over the er4ps. Ear rape. that's what the er4ps specialize in (although...

    SR225i with 3.5mm jack?

    Quote: actually, this is exactly what i want. I've tried out a few bluetooth controllers, with the headphones intended to be plugged into them but instead the headphones plugged directly into the iPhone jack, but to no avail. the phone tries its best to send out all sound to the bluetooth...

    SR225i with 3.5mm jack?

    I'm now invisaging a y-split just before the amp, the remote line coming out with no other connected, direct to iPhone jack port, then the amp connected to the iPhone port.

    SR225i with 3.5mm jack?

    the scariest thing I've ever done was that moment when I got a pair of wire cutters and 'snip', right through my new SR225i cable. Haven't soldered for about 15 years. Proved to be a right pain in the proverbial because of the layout of the jack, but the result is that i now have a usable cable...

    just finished ripping clapton unplugged = eargasm again. you can hear the creaks in the floorboards of the stage. I can now see why it is said by so many that voices through grados are so blooming marvelous...

    I just got a pair of Grado SR225is. Absolutely fantastic. But the proverbial hit the fan in my previously naive mind when I listened to Philip Glass' Koyaanisqatsi (sp?) soundtrack. The opening ominous bass line blew my mind, then being able to hear almost every single person singing...

    t50p, DT880, (T1?), SR225i (with end choice...!)

    Hooza. A night of ghost listening, and a rerip of some music at 320k is surely fantastic! Best, most impressive so far is koyaanisqatsi soundtrack by Philip glass.

    t50p, DT880, (T1?), SR225i (with end choice...!)

    i was running around with my iPhone and no amp. there was a DT70p, but only a 250ohm version. Couldn't hear it properly with the background noise (despite the isolation, the iPhone still wasn't enough to power it). I couldn't really hear what it was all about. the T1 and the DT880s were in a...

    t50p, DT880, (T1?), SR225i (with end choice...!)

    thanks. I did my absolute utmost to go in with an open mind. I have to admit though, I did have to take a leap of faith. The grades had to be paid for before listening to (beijing is like this...). It was just that the others all didn't really do it for me (apart from the T1s which were...
