    Best Smartphone for audiophile

    I'm actually interested in getting the m8 for my dt770 80 ohm... how did they sound coming from the m8? These will be the hardest to drive headphones that I use on the go so if the 1.2 volts from the m8 can get the dt770 to loud levels... I'm golden.

    Best Smartphone for audiophile

    Has anyone tried the V20/V10 with dt770 80ohm or beyerdynamic custom studios? looking to get a used v10/v20 or m8 as a dap for my custom studios. From my understanding, a headphone with high impedance, low sensitivity or a combination of both needs to be detected by the phone to unlock the full...

    Searching within a section of threads

    Trying to narrow down my search for a headphone int he for sale section, but is it actually possible that there isn't a way to search in just the forsale section? I can't find the advanced settings on the regular search so idk if there's a seperate field for searching in a section or thread.

    Old site's buying guide by budget is gone :/

    yeah, unless something gets fixed soon, there's a wealth of information that is about to go down the drain and that's really unfortunate.

    Old site's buying guide by budget is gone :/

    Does anyone have the updated link for the old guide that broke down headphones by budget and tier? this was the previous URL https://www.head-fi.org/a/headphone-buying-guide It was a great resource and I hope it survived in some form.

    Sony MDR-7520

    Morty @ B&H got me to try these today and I couldn't take them off! OHH MY what a revelation! The MSR7's were next on the list but these just leap frogged damn near everything on the list. Can someone give me the quick rundown on how the whole sony 75XX line runs? I think the 7520's are the...

    AKG new headphone K545?

          I have attached a pic of the pad properly attached to the cup in the same manner the stock ones are. I used the notch to fit the lip and just spun them till they were securely on. They sounded pretty good too, but i felt that they looked alittle off. with the lip completely over the...

    AKG new headphone K545?

    I have to warn you, if you look at the particular HM5 pads that I got, the back side of the pads that secure onto the driver is black, not dark red. When ordering the white pads, the pack part of the pads are white... so it might look out of place.

    how do these pads differ from m50x pads? and are the only replacements for the brown ones from here and here?

    Sennheiser HD 598 CS Closed Back

    that's exactly correct. the hd598CS cable will go into a m50x like it belongs! Apparently the 598cs port is deeper than the 598se or 598 and those redditors were claiming it worked based on the openback versions.

    Sennheiser HD 598 CS Closed Back

    people on reddit are telling me that the m50x coiled cable will also double for the 598cs. Im sitting here like a moron trying to get this in and the fat part of the plug wont let me extend deeper into the hole. Luckily this is only a problem with headphones, whereas I can see this being a huge...

    AKG new headphone K545?

    for ****s and giggles, I figured I try my hm5 pads on the k545. But I put mine on a little differently, I actually put the entire pad lip around the driver housing! I can't tell you how much the comfort has improved. Does the lip furl up a tiny bit? yes, but honestly it doesn't look too bad at...
