    Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations

    Yes, I do know that. But I hate deleting my own posts, I'd rather show that I was wrong.

    Buying portable or in-ear headphones? Seeking guidance? DON'T START A NEW THREAD. Ask for advice HERE!

    Howdy, I've begun thinking about returning to a workout schedule and need a pair of clip-ons or IEMs to help motivate me. I don't really work out to classical music or jazz, so I am looking for something that can play electronic music, hip-hop and a bit of rock decently. A big factor I am...

    Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations

    If you are referring to the wood clip-ons (ESW9) and not the headphones, then I have some experience with them. In my opinion, yes - the treble switch makes them more enjoyable, and sometimes it's nice to have a bass boost for some songs. The difference is not amazingly different however, I...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-002W High Edition

    Just an update: I recently received a pair of these cans, and MY WORD are these simply incredible. I ordered from Musica Acoustics (thanks for referring me to Dimitri, Twinster!) and they came within 5 days. The purpleheart/amaranth wood cups are very beautiful, comparable to Denons and the...

    How deep is the audio technica ATH-M50

    Balanced headphones, deep pads/comfort, headphones that produce good bass that overshadows nothing... My friend, have you considered the Fischer Audio FA-003? It can be had for around the same price as the M50s, (and in my opinion) much more balanced, while still having a bass presence. And the...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-002W High Edition

    ^ Wow, now that's quite a source you've got there! I looked on your profile and it seems you've not gotten them, but do you know as to when these first came available? I'll write to the email you listed anyway though, thanks! I will mull over both your and John's testaments and weigh my...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-002W High Edition

    John, I was curious as to who you went to for your woods. I have been putting off ordering these for too long, mostly because of work and fear from the horror stories about GD-Audiobase. Is GD-Audiobase the only source to get them from, by the way? And finally, to anyone who owns the High...

    Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations

    I don't think so - it wasn't during a pause, I'm wondering if its because one of my cables for some reason got loose? I just tried it again, and during the exact same song it powered off again! Strange... I'm really not sure what's causing the problem, as the rest of the album runs completely fine.

    Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations

    Has anyone else been having their Arrow randomly powering down? When I tested mine a few days ago (after a full charge), I hooked it up to my K420s and was enjoying a song by the Bill Evans Trio - when suddenly the Arrow cut out. Nothing - for at least several minutes. I then unplug all the...

    Review: Fischer Audio FA-003 - a neutral champ!

    Finally came back to this thread after a long hiatus. The woods on those FA-002w are really tempting, but I'm not sure exactly how they are classed - so there is the regular FA-002w and then the Master Series? I was looking at the Zebrawood or the "Zerawood" pairs, but when I emailed Dmitry...

    Review: Fischer Audio FA-003 - a neutral champ!

    I listened to the FA-003s for a couple minutes a while back, and I have to say - I am impressed! They sounded much more appealing than the HD 598s, and possibly a bit better than the K601s. Something about the spacey-ness and clarity in the mids (especially for a sub-$200 headphone) makes me...

    Hey there! Really late and new to this, but I and a couple friends will attend. We don't really have anything to contribute, but we'll bring the HD 598 and the PROline 900. Sources will be a 5g Ipod Classic and a Cowon J3.

    The Deals Thread (CLOSED! See the last post for the link to the new thread)

    I dunno if this is old or not, but Redfli Electronics is having an AKG sale - up to 50% off. I just ordered K420s for 45 instead of 80 USD. A number of AKG products are on sale here: http://redfli.com/akg.html Do note however most of these are portable/IEMs - you're not going to be getting the...
