    New Beyerdynamic Pro X line: DT 700 Pro X and DT 900 Pro X

    After a botched attempted to replace the cable on my 770 after a decade of faithful service I was faced with the difficult choice, a new 770 or the 700. I'm not a wealthy gearhead, I just like to listen to music. I think for the DT700 the designteam of Beyerdynamic sat down and pondered the...

    Seriously big memory foam tips?

    As in larger than the comply large (so more than 13mm). Does such a thing actually exist? Preferable with a 4mm bore hole. Who can point me in the right direction?

    bluetooth receiver for high impedance headphones

    I'm considering a bluetooth receiver for my DT770 250 ohm as a solution for occasional usage with my phone as a source. However browsing around it seems that most lack the power to drive something with this impedance. Has anyone any experience with things like a Fiio BTR3 or 5 or a Hiby W3 with...

    CHIFI LOVE Thread-A never ending IEM-Heaphones-DAP-Dongles Sound Value Quest

    I think I just busted my UIISII HM7. They're my favorite lying-in-bed-watching-youtube earbuds because they're small and very competent midrange. I did notice however they've gone steadily up in price. Is there anything else to look at for me? Or should I just buy them again? universal IEM...

    Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 250ohm Impressions Thread

    I've had mine for about a decade now (And they show it but that's another story). I think old age is getting to me now, that and the fact that I work from home 90% of my time now and have rigged up a nice sony cd player to an old technics amp I had lying around. Thing is.. if I hook up my Fiio...

    Is there a "comfortable" headphone?

    Full size cans I have here right now.. Sony xm3. OK shape size, do get sweaty after 2-3 hours. The headband presses a bit on the top of my head and I have to position it just right Beyerdynamic DT770 pro. There's a reason you see these a lot in radio studios. They're insanely comfortable. Hours...

    Problem with reference-audio-analyzer is that a lot of the equipment on there is already out of production. And my Russian is terrible.

    upgrade from Fiio X1 mk2 to Fiio M6

    I'm considering this upgrade. The X1 is doing fine but the battery is aging and I miss a functioning bluetooth sometimes. So I'm considering the M6. Has anyone done this upgrade? Or listened to these side by side?

    Any Pioneer SE-MS9BN owners here?

    What impressed me recently was the AKG nc700. Their ANC was a bit mediocre but everything else beat the sony by a fair margin
