NAD Viso HP50 - Replacement Cables
I recently purchased the V-moda coilpro cable for my HP50s. It has worked out well, but it did require some effort, so I thought I'd let people know. On the headphone end of the cable, there's a little tab that prevents the cable from being inserted into the HP50s. I shaved off this tab (it is...- newprof

BTG-Audio Cable Impressions, Reviews and Discussion | Sunrise, Starlight & FitEar
Just wanted to add to the excellent testimonials. Brian re-terminated some Etymotics for me and he recabled some Hifiman HE-600s. Everything sounds and looks great! I'm particularly happy to be rid of the awful stock cable of the Hifimans (and the adaptor).- newprof

NAD 3155 and Senn 6x0?

Specific Recommendation
Thanks! This is really helpful. I am leaning towards the AT AD900s, though I haven't decided against the Grados. I have to more questions 1) I know the AD 900s are supposed to be comfortable, but they look bulky. Are they too big to, e.g. lay on a pillow while listening. (I'm revealing one of...- newprof
