    Uh oh... Now you're worrying me. Is it the replacent turnaround time or the quality of the replacement you are referring to?

    I'll let you know. Should be fairly easy to tell if its new or a refurb. I already sent the headphones off, should get my replacement within 2 weeks I think.

    Quote:   Hi Eric, thanks for the reply.   I have the original payment receipt from the original owner. I actually just received a call from a HiFiMAN customer service rep who provided me the return instructions for the headphones. The headphones were originally purchased on Nov. 10...

    Quote:   I do have the seller's address, but unfortunately I'm past the 45 day range for a PayPal dispute. I was on a long trip abroad when I bought the headphones, they were shipped to me house and sat in the box for ~2 months since my trip was extended. I just listened to them for the...

    Quote:   Unfortunately like I just said the seller is not willing to take the headphones back. I believe him that the headphones were working when he shipped them to me, so I guess they got messed up during shipping or something.   I originally had the bad driver hooked up to the L...

    Quote:   I just got a PM back from the seller and he does not want to take the headphones back :/   I'm not positive it's the driver, but I have tried switching the cable and that didn't help. The cable I have is just the stock one.

    Thanks. I definitely did not know about the defective driver, so I contacted the owner and hopefully he will take them back. If not, I'm not sure what I should do...

    I recently purchased a lightly used HE-400 from a fellow forum member, and one of the drivers is completely dead. Can I ship these headphones to HiFiMAN/Head-Direct to get them replaced?

    Wil the Schiit Asgard amp make a difference for my setup?

    Quote:   Yup I couldn't resist buying the HE-400, but at least I found a cheap one off the classifieds here. Nah I don't own any Grados I just saw you were interested in the Asgard and at that point I was heavily debating between the Magni and Asgard(2).

    NEW - Schiit Asgard 2

    ...XLR are... http://www.m-audio.com/images/global/media_hqpics/BX8-back.jpg   I faintly remember reading that post also, and how orthos aren't affected by amps as much as dynamics. I understand that the difference *between* amps may not be that great, but what about from NO amp to the...

    NEW - Schiit Asgard 2

    ...and aesthetics.   Also, I'm unfamiliar with pre-amp outs, so can someone please explain to me what exactly they are for and why they are called *pre*-amp? I read somewhere that they are for desktop speakers, but all the speakers I've seen have copper wire connections... not RCA. Does this...

    Upgrading PC Audio Rig on $300 Budget

    I have read a lot of similar things on the Magni concerning it's performance for price. Like I said I think I'll start with sound card (Xonar DX) + amp and then eventually maybe add an external DAC. I'm still not sure if I should get the Magni or Asgard 2 for the amp though. It seems to me that...

    Upgrading PC Audio Rig on $300 Budget

    Thanks for the reply. The reason I was leaning towards the DX over the STX is that I was under the impression that pretty much any external amp (Magni, Asgard2, etc.) would be a better amp than what is included on the STX. Is that true?

    Upgrading PC Audio Rig on $300 Budget

    Hi all,   I've recently decided that I'm in need of some headphone-related upgrades. I am currently running an Audio-Technica ATH-A500 from my desktop's onboard sound. I love the A500, and it has served me faithfully since it was recommended to me by Head-Fiers 6 years ago... but I crave...

    new Ear Pads for Audi-technica ATH-A500

    Quote:   I would suggest this to anyone looking for replacement pads for any Audio-Technica headphone. After seeing the ridiculous prices on AudioCubes2, I called AT's parts department and was able to get A500 replacement pads for $11.16 shipped. Much cheaper than any pads on...

    Cans for new gaming laptop?

    Damnit damnit damnit! I am so close to buying the A500s, but I keep on going back on myself. I was talking to my friend who is in college today and he said he doesn't really use his headphones much in his dorm, but if he had wireless ones he would. Are there any good wireless rigs in my...

    Cans for new gaming laptop?

    Ok guys... so I'm pretty sold on the ATH-A500s One more question... Do I need a USB soundcard or some such device to take full advantage of these headphones? or is the onboard sound sufficient?

    Cans for new gaming laptop?

    -The headphones do not have to be portable at all, I will be using them in my dorm 99% of the time. -Hmmm I guess isolation would be a plus, I'm not exactly sure how loud my dorm is going to be. -I'm more of a leisure gamer, and I love bass. Also, can anyone give me a recommendation of...

    Cans for new gaming laptop?

    I just got my Asus G1s gaming laptop, and the speakers rrreeealllyy suck, so I need some new headphones badly. I would like to spend < $100, preferably around $80. I will be using these headphones to listen to music, watch movies, and play games. They will be worn for long periods of time...
