     About 6 months ago i got some ATH-AD700's, and for the first time, a nice little headphone amp to go with them, the iBasso D2+ Boa. I love them for using on my PC, i use the D2+ as a DAC/AMP for listening to music and games when on my PC, and the sound is excellent. However they are not...

    iBasso D2+ quick questions

    Hello, I have just ordered an iBasso D2+ Boa with a Line-Out Dock connector. I am aware that you can use it just as a DAC, AMP or DAC+AMP. Although i am a little confused how i use each one. I have had Sennheiser HD650's, Grado SR125's and now some ATH AD700 headphones before. But never a...

    Need some cheep, but good headphones - totally lost!

    I havn't been looking at headphones for over a year now (or listening to them). I last had some Grado SR225, and before that some Sennheiser HD650, and some Shure SE530. Now i'm listening away on my computer to some Studio Monitors, but they are failing me because the soundcard they require...

    Best SQ <£120 MP3 player

    I'm currently using my shure SE530's with my Creative Zen, it sounds okay in my opinion. But i expected better, would the SQ improve a noticeable amount with a better player ? i know the SE530's are bassy headphones, but the zen doesn't seem very good at delivering it for some reason. So if i...

    SE530's benefit from burn in ?

    Just got my SE530, they sound okay-ish, that's about it thus far to be honest. The bass, erm..it's deep, but its not impactfull, it's not powerfull, and it's underwelming. I had read so many things about this headphone being warm, with big deep bass.. i don't hear it thats for sure. Half of the...

    Only me that finds the grado's extremely comfy ?

    I find my new Grado SR225's even comfier than my HD650's (now sold) they just 'dissapear' after about 5 minutes. I don't even know there actually on my head, which is what i would class as ultimate comfort for headphones. They've only had the pads washed in warm water (after which the water...

    SE530's a big improvement over ATH-CK7's

    I got the Audio Technica ATH CK7's a few months ago until the right driver suddenly went very quiet. I loved them - but have now just sold my HD650's and PSP to get some Shure SE530's and a Creative Zen. However i just can't help but think they won't sound a lot better. I just don't see how such...
