I just got a pair of B&W P5s Series 2 for my birthday. I almost opened them, but then thought what if I add some more $ and upgrade to something better. I have a HD650 at home and over-ear momentums at work. I would get something for my home rig, but I don't really spend much time...

I've owned my amp for more than 5 years and never had any issues. A year ago , I noticed that the right channel was slightly quieter than the left. I re-seated the tube and everything was back to normal. This happened last week and re-seating the tube didn't fix the problem.    I'm using...

Hey guys,    My coworker is looking to spend $300 or less on headphones and the 2 main requirements is that he needs them to block out noise/sound isolating and to have a microphone to be able to take calls.   I believe he will be listening to music straight from his iPhone.    He...

I'm currently using my D7000's at work and they are not working out too well. First of all, I'm always scared to scratch the wood and then the FiiO E7 doesn't really make them sound so well.    My company just started to offer $100 grant to get any headphone so I need your expert advice. I...

Hey guys,    I need some help, or should I say my coworker needs some help deciding on how to upgrade his audio listening experience.    He listens to mostly MP3s on iTunes 256 AAC, but he also has his favorite music in FLAC.    His current listening setup is:    Macbook...

Hello,    I've been going through all the threads, but couldn't find anything relevant.    I got the Ultrasone Pro 900's a few months ago and I'm really enjoying them. I use them mostly at work through my FiiO E7. The only thing that bugs me are the ear pads. After long listening...

Hey there,    I just got the Fiio E7 to use at work with my Ultrasone Pro 900's out of my Macbook Pro and have a few quick questions:   1. Once I plug it into my laptop, will it work as an amp and a DAC or just as a DAC ?   2. Should I turn my laptop volume all the way up and then...

Hey guys,   I just got a really good deal on a WA6 SE from a fellow Head-Fier here and I've been searching through old threads trying to find a good source for it. I'm probably not going to get a DAC for a while though as I have spent more than I planned on an amp.   I currently listen...

    Hey everyone,  I'm getting an itch to upgrade but I'm not sure if this upgrade will be drastic enough so I need your help.  I'm currently using a Little Dot MKIV SE with the following upgrades:   - 6H30-DR Russian Supertubes - output capacitors to Auricaps - internal signal...

Hey guys, I'm using an Auzentech Prelude as my source. I use a splitter to connect it to the Little Dot MKIVse, but I get very annoyed having to go behind my pc to change the connections everytime I want to listen to my speakers. My father suggested using an A/B switch from Radioshack.  ...

I just bought HD650 from J&R. I have read that there are 2 versions of the HD650, the older one which has a little muddier sound and the new ones that sound much brighter. I forgot to ask but do you guys think the ones I bought will be the newer version ?

I'm currently using HD555's but I'm going to be upgrading to HD650's and I'm in the process of possibly buying a LD MKIVSE from a member here on Head-Fi. I wanted your opinion on whether this amp will be a good fit with the HD650's and also whether I should be looking into other amps at this...

Hey everyone, I bought my first pair of nice headphones last summer (HD555's) and they've been great and I love the sound. I'm about to graduate next semester and I'm thinking about getting something better. What do you guys think would be the next logical upgrade, would I feel a huge difference...

My buddy just got a pair of ATH-AD700's and he's going to be using it with his Samsung 52 inch lcd tv to watch blurays via PS3 and wanted to find what would be the best way to hook up the headphones without loosing any sound quality. I think he needs a splitter cause he needs to have both...

Hey everybody I joined head-fi during the summer but I just spend my time looking around and reading up as much info I could get my hands on. That Summer I bought my first nice pair of headphones (Sennheiser HD555) which is probably considered a low end model compared to the types of headphones...
