    Squeaking sound on K81DJ

    So recently got myself a new pair of K81DJ. After a few days of use I found that while wearing the headphones the right can produces somewhat of an annoying squeaking sound sometimes when I rotate the it (or just adjusting the right can). Has anyone experienced this with their K81? If so any...

    Newbie - AKG K81

    After reading bunch threads on this forum the last few days and checking on Tom Lee Music's website I knew Tom Lee has some decent headphones in stock. So today I went there hoping to get a new pair. Tom Lee Music had a few different headphones lying around so I got the chance to try a few of...

    Newbie questions

    Realy 455 is discontinued? So comparing HD455 and HD280, which one is better in terms of listening to music in a noisy environment (bus for example). Is there much difference between HD280 and HD280 silver?

    Newbie questions

    I'm kinda new with this whole headphones business. Been doing quite a bit of reading but I still have a few questions. Currently I'm using Sennheiser HD477. Being an open headphone, I found it lets in too much background sound in (and music out). I've been looking around and sorta have my...

    Which one should I go with?

    I'm confused on why they make open headphones. I thought the whole reason behind these big cans is to block out noise? Oh I'm from Vancouver. How is Sennheiser HD280 in terms of blocking out outside sound and the sound performance? Hd555 is open as well?

    Which one should I go with?

    Thanx for the replies for far. The problem with a lot of this suggestions is that I can't get them in Canada. I can always get them from E-bay I suppose. The HD477 let in outside noise and it's just pretty annoying when I'm on the bus listening to music and I can still hear ppl's conversation...

    Which one should I go with?

    I haven't even heard of Grado before. If I just plan to play without an amp what would be the best choice?

    How's HD580 compare to HD555? HD580's quite more expensive though.

    Here are some of the options Futureshop has... http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/sub...0&page=0&list= From that list which one would be the best? (Not HD600 I can't afford that). Ya I just read a few threads on Bose. Interesting. Scrap that from my list I guess.

    Which one should I go with?

    Hi all, I recently purchased Senheiser HD477 headphones b/c my old ones broke. The sound on the HD477 is decent but it's open so on the bus I can hear ppl around me, it's rather annoying. Also because it's open if I crank it up in the library ppl can hear me. So I'm looking for another one (I...
