Does anyone have a measurement on the internal height of the PM-3 cups?

  Price sounds great but fair warning these seem to have a recurrent cable reliability problem (look them up on Amazon). You'll be taking a chance and maybe getting a great deal or maybe a pile of aggravation.

I bought a pair of LCD-2 Rev 2s non-Fazor over a year ago and loved the sound but found them really uncomfortable for long listening sessions so returned them.   Looking for some feedback from the community - I heard the pads were updated to be more like the LCD-3 pads - do the new pads make a...

I bought the $20 UE6000 from Compuguys on Ebay recently.The battery compartment appears to be sealed, so I would not count on the active noise cancelling working (it's not very good anyway).   The condition overall was good, however, and the sound indistinguishable from another pair of UE6000s...

  I tried a pair of Grados at the Washington DC Canmania for the 1st time recently  - I don't know where they are built, but wherever it is foam must sell for the price of gold given how stingy they are with it.   X1s get 90% of my head time - wonderful extremely comfortable headphones.

It all comes down to your ears - no way to tell other than trying them. I'm more sensitive than most to hot treble, so there's a good chance they might not bother you. Other than the hot treble (which kills them for me), the 668B is in many ways a good value. My recommendation is to make sure...

I own the TBSE and have owned the DJ100 recently - I did not notice any appreciable difference.

Forgot to add - given the topic of the thread - I easily prefer the X1s over HD650s (never listend to HD598s).

JDS labs CMOYBB starts atf you like slightly warm.

Just bought a pair of these as a beater for travel.   Sounds a bit thin out of the box - do these change meaningfully with burn in?

I'd be careful on the HE-400. Definitely +1 on the sub bass, but for me there was a sharpness in the treble that consistently caused my ears to quickly hurt. 

Hmm sure seemed like a ground loop but I put my amp and laptop on the same plug and the behavior did not go away.   When the laptop is plugged in I get a slight buzz on the JDS amp (connected to Schitt Modi DAC back to laptop by USB), ONLY when the amp is in the off position.   This...

Just for reference - it was a ground loop.   Showed up when using a Schitt Modi & JDS 2.03, but not with the Modi/Magni stack - I assume the Magni has some level of filtering that the JDS does not.

I use Spotify premium at 320 kpbs and the quality is good.   The best reason for utilizing Spotify or any other streaming service though is music discovery.   When you can type in almost any band name and listen to something, you will find yourself trying a much wider variety of music...
