In perfect shape, nice communication from seller.

The headband and pads have been exchanged to lambskin types, and the cable has been replaced. They have some marks from wear - see pictures, but they are in fine working condition.

After 4 hours of burn in, they still sounded horrible. So I had to take them apart and change the polarity of the connection. That did the trick. They are back to sounding great again!   Is this on? [taps microphone]   Cue crickets!

Ok, now I was able to do a proper A/B test with another pair of headphones, and they sound horrible after installing the new speaker. The treble is fine, but the bas is not present and the mids sound out of phase.   Anyone knows if Beyer changed the position of the + and - terminals or is it...

Hi One of the speakers in my Beyerdynamic DT770 Edition 600 ohm broke after 4 years of gentle use. Still not sure why that happend. When I soldered the wires of it, one of the terminals fell of, so I don't know if it had a bad connection in that place.   I bought a new replacement driver from...

I did a recabling of my Creative Aurvana Live. Not to improve the sound quality, but because I wanted the single cable entry like my DT770 and DT880 have.    The end result:                                

Great review! I'm considering one for my living room. I read somewhere that it consumes 40 W in idle, which might not be a lot, but mine would have to be turned on allways, so consumption is an issue for me. Do you know if the number is correct? Does your get noticeably hot on the chassis?  

Quote: Yeah, I was afraid of something like that. They would have to be a lot better than MX880 for me to be satisfied. In the mean time, I have reverted to the JVC FX700 in ears, because they didn't sell as fast as I had expected and also because I lost the desire to listen to music...

Quote: No, I can't slow down more. He'll notice my snoring then

Quote: Ok, why? I can't use IE's since they isolate the background noise too much.   Is the effect of an amplifier greater on small headphones, since for me there wasn't any with my large ones?

Quote: Thanks for the support   At least I have my required 15 posts in sight, so I will soon be able to also SELL some headphones  

I'm leaning most to the MX980's, with the G2A's second in line. If they larger Sennheisers sound good, then they are the best of both worlds.   But it is a bit frustrating that I have to buy and sell so many headphones untill I find a solution which works for me. I thought it would be easy...

That is off course true, but I was worrying the difference might be neglible at low volume?

Quote:   Hmm. I guess I should ask my boss first if the size is acceptable. Nice reviews. But maybe they are too cheap for what I'm looking for? In my experience things cost as much as they can, so maybe they are no match for the MX980, which supposedly are on par with the top model...
