I have some AMAZING pre-production SR325s that I absolutely love, but the cable is starting to become very stiff coming out of the headphones.    Does the cable turning stiff change the sound of the headphone?    Also if I do get it recabled I don't want to change the sound too much...

So I have tried a few IEMS, some old shures, UE super fi 5eb, and UE triple fi 10 pro fisher customs.  The Shures had no bass, the Super.fi 5eb's were great except all I can hear is the deep bass (the mids and highs are very recessed), and the UE Triple fi 10 pro which had recessed mids and I...

So I saw NANOPOOL and instantly thought, sweet!, a way to coat all of my audio cables with awesomeness.

Anyone live in southern Maryland that would like to show me the ropes. Basically all of my DIY endeavors have failed in some way or another, and I'm thinking I'm not cut out for it.

Hey guys, I absolutely love the sound of my grados, in fact they seem to grow on me each day. Right now I am powering them with a cmoybb, which does the job quite well, but I can't help but think I am missing something. What amp, diy or otherwise, is a good match for these? edit: ~$200-$500...

just fyi. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...SIN=B000089GN3

I need to find a good mp3 player that has all of these features as I am not allowed to have wireless devices where I work. Any suggestions?

So, I recently found a new job, unfortunately it is a job which requires that I cannot bring any electronics into work. This does not mean headphones, but I cannot bring in a dac/amp or anything remotely similar to this as they would probably bring a bomb sniffing team and I would go to...

I'm so happy right now, I found a job in Linux Administration! Exactly what I was looking for. This is sooo great. --Specto

My friend went to a conference and they were handing out free 1 year licenses for ESET nod32 Antivirus, so I thought I should give one to the community. It has to be activated by Dec. of 2009.

I am wondering if there would be any interest in a meet in Baltimore MD. I would need someone else to do the organizing really because I am not good at that, but I would like to see if there is any interest.

So I made a cmoy desktop amp, very simple, sold to me by Zigis, But of course I am having problems..... I don't know why because I can't seem to find anything wrong with my connections except for my not so good soldering skills, but it seems like everything should be ok. There is a constant...

Can anyone recommend a good diy full size amp that works well with the ultrasone hfi-780s? I appreciate it.

So, I bought both of these headphones thinking that the jvcs would be good to use at work since they're not as expensive and I won't mind hauling them around. I also bought the HFI-780s for some higher end sound at home. Well to make a short story shorter, I feel like the sound of the ultrasones...

So, first keep in mind I am completely new to all of this. I soldered most of a board that Zigi sold me, but I don't know where to put the resistors. They have labels, but how do I know which type of resistor goes where? Btw, that is his picture. Oh and I pm'd him a few days ago and he...

Can I re-purpose an old dell power supply to power my cmoybb? The voltage is correct so I think it should work? Specto

So I went to this electronics store after work... Skycraft Parts & Surplus, Inc. . It really looked awesome, it looked like they would have everything I would ever need for diy audio. And while they had an awesome amount of transistors capacitors etc, they had so many crappy off brand monster...

I want a really cheap interconnect that I can get fast. I don't care so much about quality of sound as much as quality of build, but I can't really find anything short length from amazon or some other store. I only want like a 3-6in interconnect. Anyone have any ideas.

So anyone in the Maryland area that has some decent cans, and wouldn't mind me coming to listen to them. I know that is asking a lot, but it's hard to get into spending so much money on these things without hearing them first. I would love to go to a meet, but it doesn't look there are any in MD...

So, I like head-fi because the people on the forums are generally nice people, but there is WAY too much "I love these" "I hate these", I really want some headphones that sound decent, and as a noob with little money, reading these forums confuse the crap out of me. I like Bass so I thought...

I'm currently in Orlando, FL and I was wondering where I could audition some of these headphones everyone is so fond of

I have been reading the Head-Fi forums for several days and looking for information directly relating to what I want, but it is very difficult to find an exact match. ( of course I know this is near impossible but I would like some direct input that has a consensus) I would really like to...
