    Hi all, Debating between these two phones. I have the Panasonic Htf600's driven by a p-51 and would like a bit more low bass. I love vocal trance, and are looking for clear detailed bass that is not bloated and does not muddy the mids. I also am not a fan of strong treble. Has anyone...

    Issue with La Figaro amp?

    Hello All,   I received a La Figaro 339.  It looks beautiful!   Couple of questions:   1) It arrived with 5 screws completely free and moving about the inside of the amp.  I discovered it was the screws that help the two of the three big black squares in their place.  I screwed them...

    Goodbye DT880s (600 Ohm), hello HD650's!

    Hi All,   After spending HOURS reading threads on this great forum, decided on the DT880's.  Got them, burned them in for 100 hours, and they just didn't do it for me.  They were a bit bright and sterile sounding.   Then decided to try the HD650's.   Bingo.   Much more organic...

    Help modding a Senn HD650 cable to an XLR

    Hi All,   Is there a digram/explanation that will show me how to remove the 1/4" plug off my HD650's and replace it with a 3 plug XLR?  I am a complete newbie at this.   Also, are there advantages to a 4 plug connector over a 3 plug?  How would I wire a 4 plug?  Not sure if the balanced...

    Bottlehead Smack - can't find any real reviews on it. Anyone have one?

    Was considering the Crack to use with the Beyer DT880's (600 Ohm), but want the flexibility to use with out other lower impedence cans.  Anyone have the Smack and able to comment on it's sound?  Thinking where the Crack is for cans from 300-600 ohms, it's too limiting on what I can use with it...

    AKG K 701 vs. SR 225

    Hi All, I have the SR80's with a Corda Move amp. I was planning on getting the SR225's, but have started reading up on the AKG K 701. I know they are a different price point, but I don't like the SR325i's, and I see on the web you can get the AKG's for $250 or so. All that being said, does...

    Is my Corda Move broken?

    Hi All, Sorry is this has been covered - I searched but didn't see it already. My Corda Move crackles something terrible if I touch or even brush against the input cable. I just received two other cables (both ALO's) and they do the same thing. Sometimes, I will entirely loose the sound...

    Saw Tiesto this past weekend - review of venues; Boston vs. Dallas

    I love all types of music except heavy metal. One of my loves though is Trance...specifically vocal trance. A little about me: I am a male in my 30's and recently moved from Boston to Dallas, and I don't miss Boston at all. The ONLY thing I do miss about the city is Avalon. Avalon has been...
