The New HD 560S: Linear Acoustics at a Breakthrough Value
What would be a headphone that might be more expensive, but better in any way than 560S , and not require an amp, and have a decent built, and not uggly? I am interested in analytic sound, as close to Hartman as possible. It's not 600,650,660S,800. So ? And ... I haven't seen comparison to...- viperxp

You are simply misleading. There are buttons and the headphones are foldable (just not in the way of the older models).- viperxp

The FiiO X3 2nd gen (ex X3K, X3II) Thread : 192K/24B, CS4398,Native DSD, USB DAC with LO and inline remote
I have two questions: 1 - What would be a good alternative to this guy? I would like a more compact form factor, Bluetooth and at least the same power output. 2 - Will there be a difference in sound between a good DAP and a good mobile phone, when played over bluetooth? The more I think about...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
Went from the wonderful PX to Bose. Sound-vise - the PX surely beat the Bose's, but can't say the same about comfort, with those Bose's you hardly know you have them on. Angry at BW engineers, seems that they chose design over functionality, if those ear cups would have been 5 mm wider and 5 mm...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
Thanks for that case suggestion. The problem is that the case will not solve the comfort issues. Well need to think what's more important - SQ+overall refinement or comfort + better ANC.- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
...loose in SQ, but will have a much easily enjoyable product. Too bad there is no perfect product. If there are some suggestions of how the comfort problem can be solved - I would be happy to hear those. *** off topic - "The Great Gatsby" soundtrack is a wonderful experience with those PX's.- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
Anyway, it seems that i will get those second-hand PX's. Will give them about a week of listening, and write a more detailed review. The current owner is selling because of comfort issues, he felt that the headphones do not feel great when he bought them, and thought that he and/or the phones...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
Hi, let me clarify 1. The arms that hold the earpieces are not very thick, they could be thicker. 2. The arms, when they rotate - rotate thooth but I would expect to get more resistance from them. 3. Simple thought. What headphones to your opinion would break if you would unfortunately sit on...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
Well, had a short (about 30 min) session with those PX's and here are some impressions: Comfort - I prepared for the worst, but.. I did not feel any discomfort, not from the earpads and not from excessive clamping force, they felt just right. I would be happy if the earcups would have been a...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
I listened to P7 once, but was scared off their price so there was no critical listening. Wow, what you wrote suits my needs greatly, because otherwise perfect Bose don't sound good to my ears in the upper end (when in active mode), and from what I understand those PX's are much better...- viperxp

Thanks for the detailed answer to my query. Another question if I might ... How is the sound compared to say .... ATH-M50X ? I have those but don't like them at all, because of the very V shaped sound, and lack of midrange (all subjective). The only music that shines in ATH-M50X (for me) is...- viperxp

Bowers & Wilkins PX Noise-Cancelling Over-ears
I have a couple of questions to the owners. 1. How is the max volume of those phones, say comparing to the QC35? I am asking because when I compared Bose to Sony Bose were much louder, and it's not mentioned in reviews. 2. How is the SQ when using in internal DAC mode (USB only connection to...- viperxp

Review by 'viperxp' on item 'Zorloo ZuperDAC-S'
...volume. I listened to the unit for about a week, and could not find a genre where the unit fails or excels, it's universal fro m what I can tell. *** Listening via PC was done using Foobar2000, 24 bit 192 Hz mode (also in driver), WASAPI (event) setting. Music - really different genres...- viperxp

Koss Pro DJ 100 - The Budget King
I use the "Auray-Deluxe-Velour-Earpads", recommended in this thread a while ago. Those are very comfortable, the sound is great too. You can easily find those on Amazon. They hold up the test of time very nicely - I used those with other earphones as well.- viperxp
