Ooowww, so many options make my brain melt. Thanks for all the input!   Off the list are the SR80i, MS1 (to open) and the Image One (to small). the Denon D2000 is way out of budget. The HP700 looks ok (except that i dislike its style ).   The Shure 440 - 880 are really one to look...

The HD212Pro is my trow around headphone for in the studio. It s also not a headphone i want to wear for long periods of time. And on top of all that it blocks a bit to much sounds, so i cant hear the phone or a colleague.   The Alessandro/Grado appealed to me because it is a really inknown...

  Quote: Thanks for the info.   It seems that i can get the K-240 MKII at a respectable dutch shop, and they come with leather and velor pads. I also love replaceable cables, just because i know how bad i sometimes handle them ;-)   The M50s is also one was i am looking at...

Quote: Let me answer question 1, the rest i leave to the fellow users.   You cannot use the USB plug to charge, just the power brick. You can use it with only the USB plug and sound from the dac, even with and empty battery.   -m4rcu5

Quote: That sounds like a really good tip! Are you talking about the MK I or II? Or do you know what the difference is except for its better looks ;-)   I will be listening at low volumes most of the time.   I also see in your signature that you modded the cable. Has it a normal...

Hello Head-Fi'ers,   Most of my listening i do at the office. And i wan looking for some cans i can use there. The office is not a cubicle, more a open room with 8 desks in it. They have a radio playing quietly, but after Monday i cannot stand radio 3FM anymore for the rest of the week...

I just could not help my self posting an pic of my new listening setup. :-)   Using: - iBasso D6 - Sennheiser IE8 - Foobar2000 + ASIO4ALL   So here they are:     I have to say, it sounds perfect!   -m4rcu5

Ah, that seems to work. Thx! I'll do some long listing tomorrow at the office.   -m4rcu5

Ah, now i have the good and the bad.   It comes with at European power plug when they ship to the Netherlands. Nice thinking of them!   Unfortunately it is not recognized as an ASIO device by windows. Foobar2000 cant use it that way. Does anyone know where to grab some ASIO drivers...

Ah thank you for the reply!   Now i think of it, i might have an converter somewhere in my desk at work. Else i grab one at the local hardware store.   For the ASIO users under us, have a look at the ASIO plugin for Foobar200: http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_asio  ...

I ordered mine last week, its estimated to arrive on Monday, maybe Tuesday. Cant wait!   Does anyone know if the power cable to the adapter can be changed? I live with European connectors here. Also does it support ASIO out of the box on windows or does it need drivers?   -m4rcu5

Thanks,   The packaging worried me a bit with the bar-code and the little tape, but its the IEM that counts.   I am running them trough the IsoTek cd now, and see if they start to sound a bit brighter. They now are very nice for acoustic and electro, but rock not so.   -m4rcu5

Hi,   I would like to ask someone to take a look if these are the real thing or not. From what i can see they do. From what i can hear they sound a bit to dark. The cable has the red chip in it, and a nice connector instead of a blurry one. The package looked good, but had the barcode...
