Exclude all that I said While I was drunk. Anyway.... The amp I recommended, DAC-01a is on par with schiit vali. Vali has tighter bass but besides that I could not tell a difference. If there were an Xiang Sheng amp with crossfeed I would keep these.

Mikros will become a classic! Over time people will laugh and /cry) for the price these were sold for.  

...opening after the magnet? Make something to direct the airflow after that magnet hole. I have not tried this with   mikros, but it WILL work with any headphone. SOme headphones will end up sounding like ****... Put plastic around the hole, metal, paper, you can tune the headphones itno your...

DX1000 is easy to drive. No power needed. One of the best amps I had with DX1000 was XIANG SHENG DAC-01 a,Cheap ass amp... UNtil I went with beyerdynamic it became obvious that my amp had not been that good. While I did thtat I had DX1000 on the background. I asked something to be uprgrade from...

House of marley TTR.

To avoid custom fees the sender was propably Darth Vader, receiver¨was L. Skywalker and the package made "swhooshhhnn" sound when shaked. "Gift" and send by "your father" is not going to cut it here mister!   EDIT: I would understand if it were some jvc carbon nanotube technology, that is some...

...tried a lot of headphones. I even posted at this thread, but I always excluded this find. I knew I had found something so special that I would be a *******d idiot if I'd just gave it all away.   At the same time I got the beevos I got AKG K550. I wanted to like the AKG's but I did not. My...

it does not matter if it is Bv-hM700 or BV-HM710 those both use the same drivers. As in itself it might not be worth the investment...well, actually it kind of is. Best portable headphones for "free" but after significant burn in. These things will rock your world and that is guaranteed!

What I'm talking is Beevo headphones. Those are cheap plastic headphones. At  cheapest you can buy those for 7 euros with free shipping. But ******* those have some insane drives. 40mm basic drivers. First time I heard the beevos I kind of laughed. These had a huge soundstage, not realistic some...

I have very unstable connection, so I might be able to get only few messages through. Which is coolbecause  what I'm talking about is the biggest fullsize headphone thing since the dolphins.

Sorry about that. I did not find the foam pieces. Then I had to move all of a sudden and now I'm not even sure where the headphones are. Too many headphones, and definately too many cardboard boxes filled with headphone stuff

I also like the MH438, especially the build quality is impressive for the price. Somics make more expensive Sennheiser hd228 and PortaPros feel like cheap toys. Not counting the heavily discounted Mikros90, MH438 and JVC ha-s400 are the best inexpensive portables I have. Definately better than...

I tried the open mod  long time ago. Imo it did not work. Hm5/digitech is one of the best bang for the buck around but  I don't feel it compares to takstars's offerings so I gave up with them. However hm5 and its copies are great place to start a headphone hobby. Amazing build and accerories...

I understand that there are different variations between the mikros and my dx1000 is a modded one... My modded dx1000 is tuned more to a "normal" sound. Stock it has quite wonky but rather enjoyable presentation. But it is indeed incredible how well these two match. I did not hear the...

I used to own DT770 250 ohms. It was my isolating headphone for night hours. It got replaced by  HM5, well to be exact by Digitech pro monitors which cost third of Beyerdynamic price. Eventually DIgitech's got replaced by Takstar Pro80 which got replaced by Mikros.   Damn...Each day I...

What is your relationship with dx1000? Do you like it's soundsignature? Seeing Aria has very similar specs to fa-003 I would guess it doesn't sound all that different. Fa-003 being is rather neutral and dx1000 is complete opposite so comparing those two is impossible. Have you heard fa-003 or...

Thanks for the suggestions. Isolation is important if I stumble upon a pair of iems I like more than Martin Logan Mikros 90. Then those would get actual headtime and I would be using them with my phone with no amp. None of the iem's will have a place in my home setup but I would also like to try...

If I could have only one headphone I would prefer quite laid back sound. Slightly bassy, lush mids but some treble presence is also needed. Big soundstage is a huge plus. My main headphones dx1000 and sa-5000 are complete opposites but I enjoy both. I'm just looking for good iem's be those bass...

I*ve heard/owned all of the mentioned above except dj100, I recommend Takstar HI2050.

I'm sure all the information is in this thread but since I'm lazy and busy I'll ask anyway. I'f I were to buy affordable iem's what should I get? I don't need iem's but I've been thinking about getting a pair anyway. I have my mind set on a certain high end iem's but before that I would like to...

Thanks for the reply. I have many better headphones thand h228. I was just asking because I read a lot of reviews and hd229 is a headphone often refferred to. I just like to know if hd228 and hd229 are the same so I can make my assumptions on reviews more precisely.

 Sorry it took me a while to reply. I'm not talking about soundstage. I'm not talking about in your face or out there presentation. I don't know how to explain it. I know what soundstage is and I prefer large soundstage. I'm not in your face front row kind of person at all. I love huge...

M1 and Mikros are both headphones. So are Lada and Lamborghini. At a first listen M1 is a nice warm enjoyable headphone. After listening to Mikros you don't ever want to listen to M1. Trust me, I tried. M1 has a nice build and are more comfortable than Mikros but soundwise those don't compare at...

I'm not talking about noise floor. I'm talking about that black space, dark void, instruments appearing out of thin air. You know...When the first note hits it is a surprise. I don't know how to explain it properly. Lack of that is not a complain towards k550 actually, even if akg's were sold...
