    Shure SE215 replacement cable

    Hi everyone, I bought a Shure SE215 phones several months ago and I've been loving it for my daily use. However, I've been experiencing issues with the cable. One of the sides doesn't work anymore. I tried to clean the contact but had no success. It seems the cable must have broken (I'm not...

    Shure SRH440 vs Grado SR60

    Quote: I meant the around ear (those which seals the ear). I don't like them because of the heat. I'd rather those headphones which sits ON the ear, not around it.

    Shure SRH440 vs Grado SR60

    Quote: Just a question: are the 440 earcup headphones? I definitely don't get along with those cans. They make my ears burn quite easily...

    Shure SRH440 vs Grado SR60

    Quote: It's hard to tell, cause I listen to a lot of different stuff. If I were to tell what I'm into, I'd say folk, alternative/indie rock, blues and new metal. But regarding the comfort factor, which one would you recommend?

    Shure SRH440 vs Grado SR60

    Hi there, I want to buy a good pair of full-sized headphones and I saw those two are in the same price range. Which one is better? My priority is comfort. My ears are quite large and prominent, so they tend to be sore after being pressed by a tight headphone for a few minutes.   Moreover...

    JBL Creature III

    Quote: Just keep in mind that I am not a hardcore audiophile. I mean, I like enjoying good quality music, but I don't want to spend loads of cash in sound equipment, and I don't have an old receiver at hand to draw off the speakers. Can you recommend a good speaker set costing $100 or...

    Gaming Headphones suggestions

    I'm looking for a good pair of headphones for playing games (below $50). What do you guys recommend? I'm considering Senn HD201, for it is said to have strong bass. Is this a good choice?

    Koss KSC 75 ( worlds best valued headphone)

    I'm asking this because I'm planning on buying a good pair of phones to listen to music on-the-go. It would be better if I could use them while jogging, so I guess it is recommended to buy waterproof phones and also they must provide a good fit in my head. Is the SportaPro a good choice? I'm...

    Koss KSC 75 ( worlds best valued headphone)

    I was reading about those KSC-75 in Koss official website. The specs are the very same from PortaPro. Frequency Response (15Hz-25KHz), impedance (60 ohms), sensitivity (101dB/mW), and distortion (below <0.2%). I was wondering if they use the very same drivers as the PortaPro. If this is true...

    Possibly fake PortaPro (Help me!)

    I just figured this out. I was using my speakers plugged in the green connector of my sound card (line out). The headphone was plugged in the blue connector (which I set up to use as headphone output, using the Realtek Audio Manager). I figured out that this blue connector is supposed to be used...

    Possibly fake PortaPro (Help me!)

    There is something I noticed today. They came in a white package, just like this. But today I passed by a store and saw some Koss phones, and I noticed the packaging were totally different, in a blue color, like this one. Other slight difference that I noticed was the plug. While my phones...

    Possibly fake PortaPro (Help me!)

    Comfort is not an issue at all. They actually feel great in my head, an this is itself a great feature, because my ears are a little bigger than average, and I had problems with all supra-aural headphones I've tried before PortaPro. And about burn-in, what procedure do you recommend me to do...
