DT880 (2005) headband replacement
I've been using my DT880 since 2010 and my ear cushions and headband are quite worn out. Where should I order replacements and in case of a headband there seems to be atleast two different versions (buttonable leatherette or softskin cushion). Any opinions which one is more confortable?- warbaque

Help with choosing soundcard, DAC, amplifier for speakers, and suggestions how should I switch between headphones and speakers
I just recently got DT-880 headphones coupled with Phenix G3-T7 tube amp and I'm currently driving them from my Audigy4 soundcard. I'm currently lacking a good DAC for this setup, and I'm getting set of 2.0 speakers (passive) later this year and I need to get good amp for them also. Any...- warbaque

I'd like to hear differences especially between Phenix G3 and The Bijou. I've heard that The Bijou is better of the two, but it also costs about twice as much. Is it that much better?- warbaque

Phenix G3 $115 LDMK2 $145 or $190 for MK3 Or some DIY project CK2III $130 CTH Bijou $200 I really would like to build Bijou, but is additional cost and work worth it? There's also additional $40-60 postages to all these.- warbaque

Hi, I'm looking for a new headphones and amplifier for them. I really liked Beyerdynamics DT-770, DT-880 and DT-990 2005 editions. How do those compare to older versions? From those I tested, 990 was my favourite, while I also liked 770 closed design despite it's flaws. I really...- warbaque

Opinions between DT-990 PRO and DT-770 PRO, and differences to newer version
I really appreciated mids and clearness of DT-990 over DT-770. Since I only tested 2005 editions, I do not know if my results would be similar with older PROs. DT-770 + Closed Design + Cuts you from outside world + Less sound leaking - Closed Design - Cuts you from...- warbaque
