AirPods Max
Airpods Max (APM) I really like them. Never have I found headphones comfortable for say 3 hours. I forget I have these on. Like pillows to my ears. I ordered after market case for them. I am impressed. Normally I use IEM's. Moondrop S8, Blessing 2 Dusk. Plugged in to a Schiit Stack...- kg4fxg

Is Koss Porta pro endgame? What are similar headphones or above?
I mostly listen at work and home and podcasts in the car via car audio which is pretty good. I am sort of fumbling around trying to find my way as my method of listening to music in the past was components and speakers. I sold most of it. Very few use turntables, reel to reel, or 80 pound...- kg4fxg

Grado e Series
Stacker45 Thanks for the vote of confidence. Where does one get the L-Cush? I looked where I got the Grados and did not see any. So far they don't bother me. And I am really surprised by the sound, I just did not expect it. Bill- kg4fxg

Koss Portapro Thread
Well At work I am sort of isolated. Me and the copy machine. I have tried some open cans and asked co-workers which are real understanding. They will let me know and more often than not if I bring it up they want to try out my cans too. I have had about 6 kinds in here to play with...- kg4fxg

Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)
Reel to Reel I have always believed Hi Fidelity rested in serious reel to reel decks. Chromium dioxide tape Dolby B Low wow-and-flutter And this was great until I moved to 8 track tapes! And yes, just kidding, I did really have a portable reel to reel much like this as a kid.- kg4fxg

Grado e Series
For what it is worth.... I ordered the Grado SR80e. I love them. I love them enough I would consider looking further into their higher end line. The cords are fine as are the ear pieces. I don't find them scratchy. They don't move. I ordered them on a whim. Can't try them, well...- kg4fxg

Koss Portapro Thread
You all make me so curious I ordered a Porta Pro. Looking for something to listen to at work. I have various headphones and looking forward to them very much. Does anyone have just one headphone? Just one IEM? Thought so. If I don't like it I am sure my 11 year old daughter will take...- kg4fxg

How to listen to music at work? What do you use?
Good point on the Grados, they are great at home. I am actually in a temporary office, the new one is being remodeled. Something about cubes that the desks go up and down for sitting and standing. Will move in three months, current cube is next to the copy machine and not so good. In...- kg4fxg

How to listen to music at work? What do you use?
Many thanks.... I am not unhappy with the setup. If the Shure's get my ears tired I could try other cans even tempted to take my Grado SR80e to work and might if I don't drive the volume too high. The Apple devices are convenient and the iTouch is the latest model. I use a very cheap...- kg4fxg

How to listen to music at work? What do you use?
Hi, Do any of you listen to your music at work? The office I work in the PC's don't even have speakers and everyone uses headphones. Listening to music is actually encouraged. Anyway, all I have is an iTouch or a few older large iPod Classics. Or, I could load some music on the PC...- kg4fxg
