Nope, I have the standard EDC. Maybe I'm just used to a more extreme V-shaped sound profile? Idk haha! I mainly listen to my Beyerdynamic DT1770 on the SMSL M6 dac, boosting bass by ~4dbs and decreasing high trebles by ~4dbs. This is while using Dekoni Velour earpads, which push my ears further...

Well I guess the overwhelming recommendations for the IT01 here and the sound descriptions from reviews align nicely with what I'm looking for in an IEM. Plus it's half the price of my budget, so can't go too wrong with saving 50% of my money! I'll be ordering a pair of the IT01's in black...

Wow, I was reading up on the IT03 before your post which is sadly out of my price range. Idk how I didn't see a suggestion or related link to the IT01 when reading IT03 reviews. But the IT01 sounds very inviting to buy! I'm going to hopefully try and find some direct comparisons to the ones I...

Successfully got the Elite Velours onto my DT1770 Pro's. It took a good 45-60 min to get both ear-pads on because of the stitching around the velour lip that is supposed to slide into the ridge surrounding the ear-cups. It's quite a tight fit, but using a credit card or cardboard/cardstock of...

Thanks for the headsup! I'm sure the AKG cable will be plenty for me. I won't be using it portability too often but enough to warrant the choice of a closed back. I'll be using it mostly on my PC. 

Something like this?    https://www.amazon.com/Replacement-upgrade-pioneer-HDJ-2000-Headphone/dp/B00KAST95Y   Btw, I just ordered the 1770 on amazon from Audio46. Should arrive on tuesday! STOKED

I have heard of the MMX 300, but I want a standalone headphone instead of a headset. I have a stand alone microphone now and would like a really nice pair of cans to pair it with the can accommodate gaming and music. I'm going to just assume the 1770 and 1990 have way better sound quality than...

What's the comfort level for these cans after 4-6 hours of listening time? Do your ears get sweaty, ears hurt from clamping force, etc.?

I'm just going to jut in here and ask if anyone has played games, specifically FPS, with the 1770 or 1990? I play a lot of CSGO and am looking for a headphone upgrade in the $600 range to replace my PC360 headset. Is the sound-stage substantially better on the 1990 than the 1770 (1990 being an...

So I'm looking to buy a new DAP. Currently I'm using the Fiio X5 (1st gen), which was my first venture into the audiophile universe. After looking around, I've "narrowed" my search down to the Onkyo DP-X1, Fiio X7, Pioneer XDP-100R, Astell & Kern AK120, and Astell & Kern AK Jr.   I purely...

I plugged these into my external SoundBlaster X-Fi soundcard and they came ALIVE. They're damn good not amped, but the bass definitely needs a little boost for my musical tastes.

Can't decide between getting the Cayin C5 or Fiio E12A to pair with these suckers (i use the Fiio X5 DAP). I listen mainly to electronic music and hip hop...

Are you talking about the Cayin C5 or the JDS Labs C5 amp? I am using the KC06A's with the Fiio X5.

So I currently have the Monster Turbines and they're getting old and boring to me. Trebles aren't that nice but the bass is good on them. I've been looking at the Ostry KCO6A and based on reviews it seems like it would fit my musical taste perfectly. I listen to dubstep, drum & bass, rock...

Found out that I had to force similar paths in the options menu for my device. :P This is beautiful.

So I recently purchased a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi HD to pair with my Audio Technica ATH Pro700 MK2 and it works flawlessly. I use my cans to jam out in public (w/o the amp obviously) and also in my dorm while I'm producing. I also have a pair of SteelSeries Siberia V2's and I'm thinking...

Currently have a Sager NP9150 laptop.  Anyone have any opinions or suggestions?

what do you guys think of the cowon x7?

Anyone have any good comments on the Son Walkman F Series? It comes with the new Android 4.0 (ice cream sandwich) and I LOVE that OS.

My friend has some crossfade lp2's and they're pretty nice. But don't let their looks deceive you. I had the same comparison a year from now and I ended up going with the AudioTechnica MK2. Wonderful bass and the treble is pretty good too! Very good for a budget set of cans.
