    I have never paid any custom fees from receiving packages from overseas.  Proud to be an infidel!  :-)

    looks like buy.com's Denon AH-D5000  is dead.  The $380 price offered by Beach Camera is gone and it is now at $480 through some other company.

    My turn to give back to the community.  buy.com has Denon AH-D5000 for $379.95 + free shipping.  Saw this on Ssickeals.net first.   http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=204242051

    AKG K550 vs Some others (denon d2000, akg k271, ultrasone edition 8, shure 940, shure 840, beyer dt770.....)

    Quote: jisora, thanks very much for the instruction.    I opened mine today.  I looked around in there, and decided to put some stretched, re-shaped cotton balls in the cavity of the cups.  Just listened to it for a couple minutes and didn't notice any obvious change.  I've had probably...

    AKG K550 Review.

    I get pretty good bass from my K550 before I did anything, even without turning on bass boost from my cMoyBB.  With BB turned on, it is even better.  To get a good seal, push around the cups' edges to get a good fit.  I also later on bend the wide metal head band just a little bit to get a...

    Could anyone tell me how to open up the K550?  I want to open them to see the inside, but I don't want to break them.  Thanks.

    AKG K550 - NEW!!

    AKG K550 - NEW!!

    I received my K550 2 days ago. The only comparison I have is a pair of HD 650 that is 1.5 weeks old. The build is very solid and it looks good. I'd say it is a bit better built than HD 650 by a hair because it has more metal. K550's clamp force is much lower than the HD 650 though. K550's foam...
