    Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review

    I think the voice (mids) just surprised me - never heard them before... the more I listen and sorta change how i'm listening I am liking the sound more and more...

    Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review

    Its funny... my amp has dual gain... I flipped to high gain and put bass boost up and then turn the volume down... I get a little different sound... So i just need to play with it.  I told somebody else that I have always had V shaped sound and these are different.  The clarity and separation is...

    Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review

    Got them today and have spent a couple of hour with them across multiple genres... The best thing I can say so far is that my head is confused a little.  I think they are just nicer than anything I have ever had and I need to use them a little differently than I have in the past (I listen to...

    I just got mine today.  Trying to figure these headphones out.  Clearly the nicest headphones I've had but I think I need to get used to the sound.  Lots of separation - can hear everything clearly... vocals are in your face and can hurt your head as you turn up the volume.  I am assuming that...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    i had read that... with the c421 (from JDSlabs) be considered serious amplification?  I have had it for a couple years and it has been awesome.  I was contemplating upgrading to their c5 but decided it really wasn't needed.  I was playing with bass boost on the cmoybb - i don't think these...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    Just got my FA-011s today from JDSLabs... I need to get a repair for my c421s and my son took over my Denon AH 2000s...   I've never had headphones that weren't completely closed cans... these are open.  I hear people talk about soundstage a lot.  I assume this is the feeling you get when...

    JDSLabs C421 Preorder is live...

    Its really funny.  I'm kinda learning on the fly here.   I thought I understood music and the sound that I like.  The cmoy with my turbine coppers was heaven.  Then I got the denon D2000 cans and was listening to them on the cmoy.  Heaven.  Then I get the c421.  Different sound.  Jumped to...

    Bobsilver - I think that is what I'm finding.  I jumped to a conclusion right off the bat and now am enjoying...

    JDSLabs C421 Preorder is live...

    Quote:   That's cool.  I'm liking them more and more - so I don't anticipate that I'd switch.  Its like anything else - just takes some getting used to and you have to have an open mind and give it time.  Being very noobish in this arena, you sometimes have to accept the fact that you...

    JDSLabs C421 Preorder is live...

    So John, the question is - after listening to the 8620 for a while - Hypothetically, if a person decided that they really enjoyed the other chip better - would there be an option to send it back to be swapped?  I do not want to put you on the spot, but after a week or so of listening back and...

    JDSLabs C421 Preorder is live...

    Quote: Both of my headphones have nice bass - so I leave everything flat always.  I didn't use the bass boost on the cMoy and haven't been on the c421.   I left the amp on all night while music was playing.  It has settled a little - on bass-y songs, it isn't "breaking up" but is a...

    JDSLabs C421 Preorder is live...

    I just got my c421 today.  Been using the cMoyBB for about a month with my Monster Turbine Copper IEMs and then my Denon D2000 cans (both of which sound great on the cMoy).  My first impression c421 was..... bright and less bass (not as clear or defined).  I'm curious how long of a burn in an...

    Denon D2000 bass?

    I gotta say - I've had the D2000's for a couple weeks.  I usually use Monster Turbine Coppers.  I love them both, but I am now carrying the Denon's with me everywhere.  I'm just using a cmoybb amp right now and the sound is amazing.  The bass keeps getting deeper and more accurate the more I...

    Trying to find the right full size headphone - Grado vs. ATH - a700, a900 and ad line

    The D2000's are really nice.  Thanks so much for the help.
