    Ety er4P to B

    Their is a lot of discussion about changing the er4p to er4s by using an adapter cable or FixUps replacement cable. Is it also possible to change the Er4p to Er4B (the binaural version)? I actually has a lot of binaural recordings so it would be interesting to be able to switch, but very...

    which crossfeed?

    Hi acs236 Yes, I think it could be really interesting to hear. I think Chu Moy has som interesting discussion on the quality of the Linkwitz crossfield in his description of the building of the crossfeed - but I know that their must be a lot of personal preferences in this. I mostly...

    which crossfeed?

    I´ve been looking through the forum and find a few links for different separate crossfeed filters - but no direct comparisons between them. How do the headroom compare to the Chu Moy filter and the filter on the Cordas. What kind of crossfeed is used on the META42s. Does anyone build...

    Etymotic ER 4's and comfort

    I found the answer about the questions between er4 and er6 in DGS´s nice review of the er4p, er4s an er6 from january - That review should definitely be in the review section!!!!!!!!!!!! Still there is one question left - Why doesn´t Etymotics do something with the microphonic effect on the...

    Etymotic ER 4's and comfort

    Gonna buy a pair of Etymotics soon. Reading this thread I understand that there are differences in the level of the microphonic effect from the cord : er4s > er4p > er6 - the er4s having the most pronounced effect. Why is it so? Why doesn´t Etymotics use a less "microphonic" plastic for the...

    Creek obh11 se alternative

    In my opinion the obh11se was absolutely superior to the obh11 with the obh-1 power supply - much more detail and a more warm sound playing classical and jazz. But they really need to be burned in before they play good I´ve found out.

    Creek obh11 se alternative

    Just heard my first amps - the creek obh11 and obh11se. Nice experience. Bought the obh11 se with the obh2 powersupply (the better one) for 210$. But after looking at this forum I´m not so sure I made a good buy. I think the crossfeed option on some headphones sounds appealing. The source...

    portable + amp =no hiss?

    I have no idea what the Santa cruz sounds like. After playing a little with the EQ and 3D effects on the control panel of the Xfire I´m now fully satisfied with what I got for my money... I cant get my headphones off again - it´s a new situation. Next step will be better headphones and an amp...

    portable + amp =no hiss?

    Only comparison is my old SB 1024 live card and the onboard AC97 chip (probably can´t be worse). The sound is much better than my old SB (which worked fine on my old pentium III machine but made my new athlon machine with VIA 133A chipset crash every half hour). The Terratec Xfire is half...

    portable + amp =no hiss?

    Thanks for the advices. Just put a Terratec DMX Xfire 1024 in the computer - how there is absolutely now hiss in the headphones ... so maybe it´s time to get a pair of Etys and an amp... The sound of the Xfire is the best I have heard from my computer yet though too "clean and cold" to my...

    portable + amp =no hiss?

    Would like to buy a new portable cd-player but found out that even more expensive players like the panasonic 580 has a annoying hiss when playing music very low (as I normally do). Will a headphone amp like the total airhead/airhead remove this hiss? When using the headphone out from my home...
