So I'm an old-timer that kind of found a sound that suited and was good to go. This sound/product was the Denon AH-D2000. Unsure anyone still has this model but throwing a hail-mary in case. The problem is they fall apart all the time and are hard to put back together. They have a very small...

Wish I could have snapped a pic of these but I saw this girl wearing these in-the-ear buds/IEMs and wondered what they could have been?  They looked like they were perhaps custom molded--they were all purple and had a black wire coming out of the center of them.   Any clue what comes in...

Can someone tell me or point me in the direction of a thread that explains the differences between the D2000 and the D7000? I tried some extensive searching but didn't find anything that spoke to this comparison. I've not been participating here for awhile, and been using a D2000 out of a...

My searches in this thread are failing me. So if this has been covered extensively already I apologize--but direct comparison between ESW9 and ESW10 -- other than a general sense of ESW10>ESW9 -- what are the sound signature differences? More/less bass quantity? More detail? etc..?

I have an odd issue. I want to use my ipod with turbodock in my car. Unfortunately, the output is too high from the Ipod's line out so I get distortion/clipping/whatever when running it into the line in jack of my car. Can I buy a attenuating mini-to-mini cable? Does such a thing exist? I...

Grrr...the headband on my pair just broke right at the earpiece hinge. That's pretty disappointing since these are only used at the office--meaning very lightly--so the plastic they chose for this piece is obviously pretty cheap for a headphone in this price range. Will have to see how easy...

I must be fundamentally missing something here. I'm spending so much time trying to get this one ground connection with not so much as a hint of success I'm wondering if my equipment or something isn't up to the task. I'm using Lead Free Rosin Core Silver Bearing Solder and a...

I can't believe I'm posting this...but after 2 hours of work and no success I have to give up and ask. *How* do you get the wires to "stick" to the ground part of the jack? I'm soldering and soldering and simply wind up with a big blob that is attached to the wires but comes right off the...

I did a variety of searches in this thread for clarification unsuccessfully--in the case of the mini-to-mini cable (with switchcraft right-angle plugs), the Canare cable has 4 wires. 2 wires clearly go to right/left, and the third goes to ground. I'm still unsure where the 4th (positive)...

Is there any U.S. sources for the colored pads? With the Euro conversion rate and shipping, I'm concerned if I order from Decks or some of the other european sources the pads will cost US$100 or so.
