    Corda Move, Only 4 amplifiers left!?!

    Just checking on http://www.meier-audio.homepage.t-online.de/ It says only 4 amps left... Is the Move being discontinued, or is this just a temporary shortage? Or maybe a successor?

    Another excellent JVC earphone...

    I haven't heard any talk of these on Head-Fi before, so I thought I'd share my thoughts on them. JVC HA-F130. They're the new version of the 'Gummy' line of JVC (as you can read here) which interestingly are the #1 selling earphones in the US. I'd been curious about the old 'Gummy' earphones...

    Zune LOD Development

    Anyone know anything about a Zune line out dock being developed by anyone? Seeing as Zune speaker docks are being developed, the Zune dock must have line out capability. I guess the only thing holding it back is the availability of the little dock connector part and demand for such a device.

    Apple iPod Radio Remote Appreciation Thread

    There have been a few scattered posts about the iPod Radio Remote, but I thought I'd try to get impressions gathered here about the device. I've spent the last couple days listening on my iPod with all of my headphone, switching between the iPod headphone output and the iPod Radio Remote output...

    Contemplating A Switch To Portable Setup

    Lately I noticed that I don't use my desktop setup all that much (AV710 -> Number Cruncher 203.2 -> Headfive), mostly because I don't like being stuck at my desk that much. So I was thinking of selling my DAC and Amp and buying a good quality portable amp (Hornet, Portaphile V2^2, etc...) and an...

    Sloppy Grado, Or Nitpicking?

    Examining my SR225s, I noticed something: I've owned several other Grados and never noticed anything like this before. Also the cord to the left earcup was pretty twisted when I received them too, more than I've ever noticed before. Is this just sloppy manufacturing on Grado's part or...

    Keep a pair of headphones for Lo-Fi recordings?

    It seems everyone here is striving to get more detail from their headphones. So I'm wondering how many other people keep a pair of headphones around for when they're listening to Lo-Fi recordings, such as poorly recorded/mastered cds, mp3s, streaming music, radio, etc... There are times when you...

    Next step up from Headfive...

    The upgrade bug has bitten me, now I'm curious where I should go from my Headfive. I enjoy the sound of the Headfive and pretty much would like more of the same, more detail and clarity in particular. My MS2is are my main headphone, so something that pairs well with them would be ideal. And I'm...

    Favorite Solid State Amps for Grados

    Theres alot of discussion about favorite tube amps for Grados (Melos, MAD Ear Purist, etc...), but I haven't seen much consensus on favorite solid state amps for Grados. Dynalo, Dynahi, PPA, Corda HA-2 MkII, Grado RA-1 or something else?

    DT770 Headphile Recable or Full Darth Beyer

    I've seen alot of impressions of the Darth Beyer mods, but few impressions from those who just got the Headphile recable. I'm trying to decide if the full Darth Beyer treatment is worth the cost or should I just get the recable. I'm mostly interested in revealing the recessed mids and would like...

    Cheapest HD600 retailer

    Can anyone point me to the cheapest HD600 retailer out there? The best I've found is ~$220 from some shop on Amazon.com Marketplace and I'm wondering if I could do any better than that.

    Disabling Volume Control On LineOut of Apple Universal Dock

    When I have my 5G iPod connected to my speaker setup through the Universal Dock lineout, the volume control is enabled which is irritating since i just one a line level output for my speakers. Does anyone know if its possible to disable the volume control on the Universal Dock somehow?

    Most affordable entry into electrostatic headphones?

    Ok, I've gotten a little curious about electrostats and would like to give them a try. I'm guessing used will be the best route, so I'm wondering if anyone could suggest some good/cheap electrostatic options. I know this might be a bit of an oxymoron, but I thought I'd give it a try.

    eBay Grado 325

    Anyone see these on eBay yet? Grado 325s with closely matched drivers, longer cord and 1/8" plug. Apparently he got these extras for only $100 after visiting Grado Labs and having a talk with John Grado. Interesting looking. http://cgi.ebay.com/GRADO-LABS-SR-32...QQcmdZViewItem Edit...

    Anyone heard the Panasonic RP-HTX7?

    Today at Fry's I saw a big stack of Panasonic RP-HTX7's at the end of the headphone isle. They're very eyecatching with their retro design. They look like the old headphones my high school had in the foreign language room, except with a nice leather headband and much nicer paint job. They're...

    Headroom: E4C & E4 Better Than E4G?

    MS2i + Headfive, Any Impressions?

    Okay, I love my Grados, far more than Sennheisers, so I think I'll use the money from my HD580s and sell my SR225s and step up the Grado line. I really like my SR225s, great impact, nice highs and lows, I probably listen to 90% of my music through them. From what I've read, the MS2i's the...

    Headphone jack won't fit over DAP case...

    Okay, I've got a 5G iPod and an iSkin eVo3, and I have a probelem when using my SR60s with them. The SR60s headphone jack is pretty large and is too large to use through the outlet the eVo3 provides for the headphone jack. I have to peel back the skin in order to use them. I figure i'm going to...

    HD580s Too Laid Back... HD595s or K601s?

    Okay, I've had my Headfive now for a few weeks and its had time to burn in and I've had the time to let the sound sink in. I'm pretty happy with the setup, except for with my HD580s. I use my HD580s as the 'soundstage' and 'accuracy' headphones, but the warm sound of the Headfive and the laid...

    Just recieved Entech Number Cruncher 203.2

    I finally hooked up the Number Cruncher 203.2 I bought off eBay for $50 shipped. This DAC sounds amazing and not just for its price. From the hour I've spend listening to it through my AV710 I'd have to say its SQ exceeds that of the stock 0404 that I've listened to and definately stomps over my...

    eBay Sony MDR-E888LP Experiences

    I'm thinking about going through with some eBay Sony MDR-E888LP. Anyone else get a pair of MDR-E888LP? How much were they and how did they sound? (Were they legit?)

    K240 or DT770... My Next Bass Can

    Ok, I've been searching for some good bassy headphones for a while now. I tried the A500s which were way too harsh and sibilant and I didn't apreciate their colored sound. Next I got K81DJs, which were just about right sound wise, but just killed my ears comfort wise after about an hour of wear...

    Value Stereo Amplifier (Not SI T-Amp)

    I'm looking for a good value reciever besides the sonic impact t-amp and super t-amp. I'm not adverse to Class-T amplifiers, its just I'd like something solid and substantial that will last a while. This amp will be paired with a pair of bookshelf speakers (I'm currently considering Polk RTi6 or...
