Would any of you know where one can go about finding 1500uf 6.3v TEAPO capacitors? I've got some bulging ones that doesn't work Stores in Toronto would be nice Any help is greatly appreciated

Yup, I kinda gave up on IEM because they isolate too much and I am afraid people are gonna sneak up on me and scare the crap out of me. Is Senn's MX400/500/550 all there is? Any other brands? Preferrably sound not too much worse than er6?

in terms of IEM and around the same price range er6? the e2 doens't do the highes well enough for me

Question just popped out of nowhere. Just curious

This is fromt he description of the Rage Ear: "The Ear simply connects to the tape output of an amplifier via phono leads" What is a tape output? and what are phono leads? So if I plan on just running this thing from a line out of an mp3 player, what cables do I need?

Inspired by the ER-4S that's on sale in the forum... Seller mentioned that he drove with IEM on. Isn't that very dangerous with the good isolation? I remembering reading in like the first page of the manual that came with the e2 that you shouldn't bike or drive with IEMs. I think this is...

It's been said that $1 headphone = $8-10 in speakers for the same quality. What about headphones and in ear monitors? Something like $1 headphone = $5 IEM? I have the e2 and they don't sound as good as Grado SR60 for the higher price. How high do I need to go to get the same kind of...

Just getting into the amp market since I am getting an AKG K501. Interested in the Supermono http://www.fixup.net/benchmarks/mono...mono_v1_0b.htm So what do all these terms all mean? Noise level, Dynamic range, THD, IMD, Stereocrosstalk??? Is there a site I can learn about all thses...

Any suggestiongs? Any experiences? And just how silent are they?

There is a small thumbnail on the right with Natalie Portman with some cans... Perhaps too small to tell. In the trailer, about 4/5 the way in, there is a pretty big shot of her hanging that around her neck again. Just wondering what cans are those, because it looks good. Maybe because...

For example, the stock soft foam pads on my sr60?

And it has to be powered by nothing higher than Cmoy or PIMETA. Basically, the cans plus the amp can't be more than $400.... preferrably much less I am looking at the AKG K 501 but seems like it needs quite an amp. Is it really bad for general apps like watching movies? If the 501 is...

I hope this is the right forum to ask. Where can I audition high-end cans in Vancouver BC? Preferrably downtown

For example, HD600 use plastic, HD650 use carbon fibre. And we've all seent he Sony that has gone woody So if I get some cans and want to do some machine-shopping and transform it into some phat anodized aluminum bracket and stuff, would that kill the sound? It seems like the woody...

How come I don't see any? It seems like there is a market for it. AM I missing out on something I ain't seeing? Closest thing I see is stereophile and most stuff are too expensive for me (nhence the small interest)

Hi people, I thought I'd just have my first post (well, not technically) in head-fi by showing what humble cans I have Some of you might know me from Sharky So what is here are my Grado SR60s with quater-size holes cut in it. It opened up the mids and highs nicely. I think I...
