    Wanted: Full size equivalent of Etys

    All right Etys are not to everyone's taste. For example, in my experience they have the lowest WAF yet achieved by audio equipment. But assuming someone likes the Ety sound signature--all that speed and detail--what full size phones are there that deliver something like it? May be even a...

    So I've hacked a bit off some foamies so that the end of the foamie is just about flush with the tip of the transducer's tube.

    DT-880 -- to tube or not to tube

    I'm thinking that my Beyers deserve better than the OBH-11 I've been feeding them with.

    Cardas cable for DT880: opinions?

    I'm thinking about the Headroom Cardas cable upgrade for my DT880's. Anybody tried it or made any comparisons with the stock cable? Are there other DT880 cable upgrades out there? Cheers, Matthew
