    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    Any way to still get new universal K10s? Would have bought off MassDrop last year if I knew it would be ages till another drop (if ever).

    Mission: Replace the HiFiMAN ear pads with other brand ear pads

    Have been trying to find a set of J$ earpads if anyone is selling. Are there any earpads similar in form factor and/or sound for HE-500s?

    HiFiman HE-500 (HE as in High End) Proving to be an enjoyable experience in listening.

    Used to have a pair of HE-500s way back when and my favorite pads were the J$ ones. Barring a stroke of luck I don't think I'll find another set of J$ pads since they've been out of business for a good decade now. Anyone have any experience with J$ pads and can recommend a similar alternative?

    Headphile Grados

    Wondering if anyone has had their Grados modded by Larry at Headphile. What was your experience, what changes did you have done, and how did your headphones sound before/after?

    Grado RS1i Impressions thread

    Picked up a brand new/un-opened pair of RS1i’s (AudioVideoExpressions had an old new pair for sale). Only Grado experience I have was actually my first high-end headphone experience, a pair of SR225i’s that I got back in ‘10 or ‘11 and loved. Don’t know why it took me so long to try another...

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Matt has been quick/responsive through email and quoted a 2-3 week time to set up the new workshop, before beginning to process outstanding orders in the order received.

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Unfortunately, speaking with my bank at least (Wells Fargo), they are unwilling to reverse any payment or take any action since the payment was approved by me. The fact that delivery of the purchased product was not expected for 6-18 months and was never received makes no difference to them...

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I’m wondering why Frank hired somebody with a dubious HeadFi history. By all accounts Frank was highly respected & trusted, seems odd to undermine that with somebody who maybe wasn’t 100% trustworthy? Wish this concern had been flagged by somebody while Toxic was still run by Frank.
