As my cable just started giving up on my DT-990 (not pros), I'll try to do a DIY cable replacement. Started looking at tutorials - further pointers are much appreciated. Are there any other mods that people commonly do on these headphones? I find them very comfortable to wear, but the sound...

I went here to check out equipment reviews.. but I ended up listening to all my old music instead.. and even though I'm a metalhead the hifi talk made me go through song after song... until I hit jackpot:    Beethovens 9th symfony.  This must be my all time favourite composition.  Beats ZZ Top...

Hi! I'm visiting NYC in july, arriving on the 8th and leaving on the 19th. Any hints for live music I shouldn't miss? Jazz, hard rock, classical.. anything goes, as long as it's good.

Last summer I spent parts of my vacation touring New England by car, and the other part of my trip just bumming around New York - mostly the touristy areas of Manhattan. Now I'm thinking of a second visit, with focus on seeing more of The Big Apple - any hints on what I should see and do? And...

Hi there, new on the forum, hope I don't ask too much of an FAQ now... but here goes: I currently have a pair of AKG K-701. Amazing phones. I also have a pair of Beyerdynamic DT250-250. Not so amazing, somehow. Several different sources, mostly run through a an amp called Harmonic Design...

I'm considering my 2nd amp to build after a CMOY to get even better sound. Given the choice of forum, I'm not looking for something necessarily battery operated but rather something with good sound and power enough to drive all possible headphones (within reason of course). Since I'm kind of...

Been into music for at least 25 years, picked up my first guitar more than 20 years ago and listen to most kinds of music. Beeing an engineer, I also naturally are drawn to the equipment side of things... A couple of weeks ago, a few friends started talking about headphones - and one guy...
