I was given a set of Snell Type J iii speakers today. The foam around the woofers is completely gone but I still hooked them up to try. They still work but I get a kind of vibration sound from one speaker woofer. Sounds like rattle that would probably not be there if the foam was in tact...

It is definitely a jack issue but it's weird. If I use the 3.5mm cable that came with the e7 or the cheap one that came with my e5 then it works fine. Using the fiio l3 iPod cable, I can easily recreate the static by turning it in the jack. It seems like the l3 plug is a bit too small for the e7...

I too have this exact problem.  I just got my E7 (from Amazon) this past Saturday and have used it with my Ipod and Iphone with the Fiio L3 connector.  I have tried the L3 line with my E5 with no issues so I know it has to be the E7 that is the issue.  It seems to be fine until I move around a...

Wow!  What a journey I've been on for the last month or so.  While the triple flange cutting option has worked for me, I've been trying out various other headphones for the heck of it.   I still have the HD25-1's which seem to be a perfect fit for my style of music (mostly rock) but they...

Mine only came with the one coil cord but they are clearly the newest made ones based on unbelievably quick customer service response from AC Gears and me confirming my second set of pads are the leather ones and not foam.  AC Gears does not list them as V3 as others have stated.  Seems the...

Actually, I stand corrected..I have an extra set of pleather pads, not foam pads.  Guess I have V3....hmm.....still loose....guess I'l try a twisting thingy!

I've tried every possible position with the HD-25's and I get WAY BETTER noise isolation than the TMA-1's but worse sound leakage....very confused.  I assume the better noise isolation is because I am getting a good seal.  With the TMA-1's on, I hear much more surround noise yet my wife cannot...

Ok..just read through 96% of this thread since I just got my TMA-1's.  I bought them from Amazon and I can't tell what version I have.  I have a average size head and these fit me quite loosely.  While I don't think they will fall off me just sitting around, I definitley woudn't try running or...

Been playing around with the TMA-1's for a little while and I can't believe how different they are to the HD25-1's.  Crazy!!  I am not an audiophile so the best way I can describe it is that the HD25's sound like I'm listening in stereo whereas the TMA-1's sound like surround sound.  Guess that...

Well, I didn't get any responses so either no one knows or my question was missed over the U.S. holiday weekend.  I did do a bit or reserach on my end prior to posting and everything i could find on noise leakage was mostly due to it affecting sound quality, no so much affecting people around...

Been using inner ear headphones for years but just received a set of Sennheiser HD-25-1 II headphones thanks to gift certificates from Amazon.  I LOVE the way these sound but they seem to have terrible noise leakage based on what my wife is telling.  Yes, I listen to music too loud but....  ...

Sennheiser makes some cheaper BT headsets but not sure what your pice range is.  I tried the 310's that have the noise cancellation.  Awesome sound, just terrible active noice cancelling.  They make a 210BT that is around $170 that just has the blue tooth.  Not sure if that's too much  ...

I got my new rubber/silicon tips yesterday.  I haven't cut the end flange off yet as I am getting a decent seal with them (i.e. getting some bass in the sound).  I used them on the train and listned to most of Porcupine Tree's "Lightbulb Sun" album.  One of my favorite sounding albums due to the...

Hmm...thought I posted a responseon your question above but guess it didn't get posted.   Anyway, I've tried both the QC15's and a version of the Senn NC headphones, the 310 with Bluetooth.  Here are my two observations on the two main things I believe you are asking about.   1.  The...

Umm....assuming this works, what do I do about all this new found knowledge I have and the fact that I want the M50's and HD25's???  My wife will kill me if 50 pairs of headphones end up around the house!
