no matter what source i plug into my AKG are louder on the left earpiece, i know its not my hearing cause when i wear the headphones backwards it becomes louder in the right channel. its becomes more pronounced in bass heavy music.

...they took my beloved modded and well used sony MDR-V6 *sniff*. so im looking for a replacement headphone, for just walking around town, as well as sitting at home and listening(but i have a good fullrange stereo for when i feel like the good stuff ). When im walking around i listen to...

Im getting a pair of beyerdynamic dt770-80 soon, and have come to understand that they NEED amplification. This isnt really a problem, but I've only got 100$(canadian!) to play around with. so what should i do for a portable DT770 amp under 100? go vibe? PA2V2? Cmoy even? LDM+ looks too weak but...

Well its xmas, and i have about 200$US to spend on headphones. I listen to a lot of metal, classic/hard rock etc, but also have been known to listen to a lot of jazz, sigur ros, rachel's type indie stuff. As of now i don't have an amp, so the source will either be a portable CD player, my...

greetings! on this years xmas list is a nice shiny new pair of UE super.fi 5 pros, which is all well and good, exept that at THIS price point, it really makes sense to get an amp, which as of previous i had just gone without(and therefore have no knowledge of whatsoever beyond what a cmoy...

Well im getting new headphones soon, and Im torn between these two. my other headphones are blu-tack modded MDR-v6s, and im just looking for a better headphone with smoother highs, fuller mids and maybe a touch more bass extension than the v6s. the v6s were also tough meaning i could throw...

ive had my sony v6s for a long time, but tonight i did a couple mods and it really put some life into these old cans! i did two mods, one is a already proven mod (blu-tak) the other is one i jsut thought of (a single ply of tissue paper over the drivers. the results are astounding! the Bass...

wow, although the recording is the now standard sup par of alot of modern recordings these days, the music si fantastic. of all the dark tranq ive heard charachter is one of my favrouites. if there are any fans of opeth, in flames or kalmah type stuff id reccomend you pick this cd up or at...

Im really into the pixies these days some good music for album listening also goes very well with ermm....one of my other "hobbies" so i was just wondering if there are any other head-fiers out there who like the pixies? also is it just me or is the bass on doolittle really hot...

I noticed some guy saying that his ipod mini with 7506 wasnt loud enough at full volume. out of my ipod mini at full volume my v6s are VERY VERY LOUD I listen to my mini-sony v6 with volume at 3/5-3/4 and i find that loud enough anyway what cans do you have and whats your average volume on...

i keep wanting to charge my ipod, and run it off usb power WITHOUT it syncing to my computer, but when i mount it, it just goes to do not disconnect(cant listen), and if i stop it it runs off battery power, which is messed up its a 2g ipod mini 4 gig if that helps (dont laugh at my harddrive!)

well my friend is stuck with some v500s unfortunately, but doesnt have money to get new cans yet, so hes been trying mod after mod. They are getting closer and closer to decent sounding, after a blu-tak mod the bass has tightened up, the midrange has smoothened (less cabinet resonance) and bass...

just came in the mail today, got opened at customs. no breakin yet as theyre new but here are some things i noticed. PICKY. picky picky picky, they really show a bad recording for what it really is ( i like this quality). the treble is decent, but my energy c-1> v6. and its still not...

Im confused how adding a small power amp to your ipod apparantly "adds" quality, and imporves the sound of your headphone. how would it be any different than the signal coming out of the ipod? just bigger! if you put a clipped 60hz wave through a 200 watt amp, its still clipped, its still...

I'm ordering my phones tonight, and its a tie up between shure ec2 and mdr v-6, this is mostly for punk, ska, metal and jazz listening. will also be used ofr watching dvds with dolby headphone.

Well im still a realtive n00b to all this headphone what not, and i frequently find myself asking stupid questions, and not having anyone to ask, then i found this forum, but it would be nice to me and others if i didnt post a new topic for every question i had(if searching didnt bring results...

Well it was less than a week till my mdr-v150s got crushed by someone on the bus bumping into me(dont laugh at them phones!). Anyway, ive decided im willing to drop down up to 100$ canadian currency, no more, and hopefully less, on some new phones. Some things im looking for -dont look to...
