It seems that the TV in the room next to mine is getting louder and louder.

Has anyone tried BeyerDynamic DT100 velour earpads on their DT150?
I would love to have velour pads on my DT150. The DT100 velour pads would fit, but I also read that they are thinner/ shallower than the DT150 stock pads. So there's a risk that the drivers will rest on the ears. And how much would they alter the sound and isolation? Any opinions?- Tiemen

non-sibilant CD players, do they exist?
Since the invention of the CD and CD players, I have problems with their harsh treble and sibilance.

BeyerDynamic DT 770/80 Pro vs. DT 770/2005 consumer edition
A fellow headfi-er asked me about the differences between the Beyerdynamic DT770/80 Pro and the DT 770/2005 consumer edition. I replied, and thought is might be a good idea to share it with you all.
