    HE-560 V4 ($269)VS HE-400 (original) thoughts?

    Adorama just posted a $600 cut on the HE-560 V4 headset down to $269 and I wondered if there is any point in going with this over my original HE-400 with aftermarket cable/velour pads/headband mod? I've always been very skeptical on Hifiman's newer offerings because the HE400 is one of the best...

    User who considers the HE-400 to be his sonic zenith requests your help with $100-150 closed replacement!

    EDIT: Sorry I did not see the new forum rules on suggestion threads! I could write a whole page here, but I will keep things breif:   I bought the HE-400's again at the start of the year for my musical bliss needs, but have just sold them (again) via this amazing community and now I request...

    Buttkicker Gamer/Tactile Transducer Thread

    I could not find much in the way of anything like this on head-fi, so I hope by starting a thread some people with experience can chime in. I recently purhased the Buttkicker Gamer 2 http://www.thebuttkicker.com/gamer2 as they have been rare and out of stock for quite some time for my computer...

    HD650 vs HE-400 vs AH-D5000 vs Mad Dogs T50RP REVIEWED!

    Through my headphone journey this month I ended up with all these cans (The HE-400's are on loan so i'll have to pick up a pair) will be returning most of them, but before I did I thought I would do anyone looking at these cans a service. I didn't have very much time at all to do this video, nor...

    Exploring music by EXTREME dynamic range

    While I question some of the sources they are based off of, this is still a very interesting site which gives a "score" on an albums dynamic range. I'm not sure what they use as algorithm, but something like plain recorded speech would score the highest. Looking through both extremes of the list...

    Amping 600Ω cans (With a 2.1 system headphone jack?!)

      So I just recently received my Beyer DT990 600Ω phones and have been toying around with getting them to sound right. Right now I have an HT Omega Claro Halo Soundcard with built-in Headphone amp (and am trading it in for a Asus Xonar ST soundcard this week, my guess is that the Asus isn't...

    Directsound VS Bit-Perfect

    Before anyone points out the obvious; yes I have looked around a LOT on people talking about different output types and comparisons. The issue is I have not found much in the way of constructive or helpful info. I've been using iTunes for years and I knew going into it, it wasn't the A+ choice...

    Speakers with a killer headphone amp? Zomg.

    So i've been really excited with my new Kilpsch's this week, almost to the point where I forgot about my headphones. I thought i'd try the tucked-away headphone jack on the Kilpsch control satellite. I am stunned. To my surprise there is some type of massive headphone amplifier somewhere...

    2.1: The Final Solution

    Ok that title sounded really bad. Anyway I just recently sold my $250 bose 2.1 companion 3 series setup I had been using for my computer (and thus all my music and movies) for the last year for $150. I sold it so I could pick up the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 system, it looked much beefier and had...

    D2000 praise/discussion

    Well it's been a exactly one month of constant listening and burning-in since I got my Denon's in the mail and I have to say I just discovered yesterday that I truly like these babys. The burn in effect is a little hard to describe, but I can tell how much smoother and well projected the low...

    Is Merzbow dangerous?

    Aside from maybe your sanity, Is Masami Akita's art harmful to your speakers? If you don't know of him, your probably a normal, sane person. + YouTube Video ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed. + YouTube Video...
