Moving on from the Grado SR60
So I have had my Grado SR60's for about a year now, and while I have enjoyed them very much it is time for an upgrade. First off, I do not think I want to continue down the Grado line for the time being; I want a phone with more soundstage and instrument separation. Also, the highs get to me...- malushi88

which IEM's actually benefit from an amp?
I am currently about to buy a pair of new IEM's from shure (either the se310 or se420) because my friend is helping me get a good deal on them. It seems to me though, that they all have relatively low impedance and I am pretty confident my zune will drive them well. Anyway, my real question...- malushi88

need help from iMod owners
I have read a little bit around here about the iMod, and it sounds like a great upgrade but I have a couple of questions for iMod owners. Would it be worth it to invest in such an upgrade with my current set up (iPod 4G color with variable bit rate mp3's V0-V2, generally 320-192kbps through a...- malushi88

choosing a follow up to grado sr60
Ok so I have had my SR60 for a little while and I have decided to get another pair of headphones. I am looking for something a little less colored than the Grado. I like the in-your-face sound and all, but sometimes I would rather relax to my music. I am thinking Sennheisers; which model should...- malushi88

Computer headset with mic
I am looking for advice on a PC headset that I will primarily use for gaming. I play FPS games mostly, so positional cues are important, but I do like to have heavy sounding explosions and what-not. I was hoping to find something that also works well for music (but I have Grado's for that anyway...- malushi88

best soundstage possible (for gaming)
I am looking for a pair of cans to be used for gaming, so soundstage is absolutely key. Budget is <$150 They can be closed or open backed, I don't really have a preference there. I usually use my grado sr60 for listening to music, but if they have good performance for rock or metal then...- malushi88

Kramer mod the Sony MDR-EX71
I have a pair of JVC Marshmallows that I applied the Kramer mod to, and I find them quite suitable for use at work. However, I missed the bass that my EX71's had. I decided that since the EX71's were similary constructed (with a small tube covered by a paper filter) that the Kramer mod would...- malushi88

alternative to imod?
From what I understand, the iMod (for the 4th gen ipod) simply moves the line out from the dock to the headphone out. (Correct me if im wrong) Is there a way I could just listen to my headphones through the ipods dock? I know I could just buy an ipod dock and those have a headphone out, but I...- malushi88

Does anyone use Koss headphones?
Before I bought my first pair of quality headphones, I consulted my dad on the issue as I knew that back in the day he had some really high quality audio equipment. He recommended getting a pair of Koss headphones. I researched a little bit, and decided on a Grado SR60 instead. However, now I am...- malushi88

Moving from Ultimate (dissapointment) Ears super.fi 3
Hello, headfi! I have been reading around the site for the last month or so, and now I am in need of your help. I recently bought the super.fi 3, and while everything was very clear, there was no punch to the sound. I thought that maybe I didn't have a tight enough seal, but testing all the...- malushi88
