I thought some might be interested in this:   Scientists have found a way to ease chronic ringing in the ears, known as tinnitus, by stimulating a neck nerve and playing sounds to reboot the brain, according to research published Wednesday ...more here: ...

Can i please pick your brains again, i aways got great advice from you dear fellows... (starting with the Karma long time ago) I need a real cheap mp3 player (something i can pick from ebay second hand maybe), budget i'm affarid this time is $30-$50 - will be used to listen to low quality...

Any idea what these headphones are? The markings say EIF3 and there was no headband. They sound pretty terrible too, there is a lot of muddy bass and that’s about it. Just curios if anyone know how old these might be… Thanks.

What’s the best bang for the buck portable amp to use with the Karma headphone out? I’m looking to spend around $100, but anything cheaper will be great, because I can put it towards headphone purchases. The amp will probably be used with future DT770’s. Option B: The other thing I’m...

It looks like my PortaPro foamies need replacement, and I’ve been to RadioShack (The Source now ) and I’ve seen 2 types, one seems too small and it’s a bit thicker and another one that seems too big but thiner. Any ideas which one will fit?

To keep this short; I was planning the get the A900’s but reading this thread about the apparent lack of bass, I’m more inclined to the DT770, but I’m wondering what would they sound like without an amp? I was hoping the Karma has a bit more power the drive them. Of course any other...

How are SportaPro comparing to the PortaPro sound wise? Do they have the same drivers? Would the grado-style mod (cutting the holes in the foamies) help with the heavier bass? (I’m asking because I could get the SportaPro at half price, plus they look less awkward)

After I burned them in for 60 hours or so, I was still not very happy with my K26P; too much flabby bass and honky mids, but I was feeling the drivers had potential, so I opened them up and tried the mod bellow: Their signature has shifted up significantly, but they still have very...

I’m looking to get an MP3 player with 5 band parametric EQ and strong output, but portable, for sports and travel. Any suggestions? I was looking at the RIO line (Cali, Chiba, Forge or Nitrus; Karma is too big and hard to find in Canada). Thanks!

I tried searching a little but it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack, because I’m not even sure what I need. I want to build a cheap (cmoy I guess) portable amp. Just point me to an website or a previous post please, with instructions on how to build one (from parts available in...

I wanted to get the MX500-W (white) because they’re $10 cheaper then the MX400 or MX500. They should have the same sound as the MX500’s right? I thought I’d ask since I don’t want any surprises….

The only ones I can find around here are the Koss KSC55 or KSC50, photos below. Are these still the same?

I just found this mod for KOSS the Plug headphones, but I don't really want to waste time and money on it if it's not at least comparable to MX500 with the isolation as an added bonus. If anyone tried this, or atleast the unmoded headphones, a little feedback will be great. Thanks! Mod looks...

I guess, “portables” is a better word then “sporty”. I’m looking for headphones for my Ipod, that I can wear at the gym or biking. I searched a little through the form and came up with these in my price range: $20: Koss KSC35/75 $40: AKG K26P $100: Sony MDR-SA1000 $160: Beyer DT 770-80...

I’m looking into getting either the above or the HD 497, to use with an MP3 player. I had a listen to both and "I think" I like the sound of the HT850 better (or anyway better suited to portable audio). It seems to be it has a “brighter” sound, also the bass (tho not as strong) is more...
