I hope this is the right place to ask, if not please let me know where I should post this instead.   My original 4r cable is broken, left side of the y connector has finally broke inside I think and I'm not getting any sound from the left anymore. Based in Hong Kong, I've gone to a few local...

DMA Audio should have some speakers for audition. It might take some time for them to set it up for you to try depending on what you want. I tried some Genelecs that were "hidden" on a top shelf in the Sham Shui Po store. I've seen them have many on display on their Mong Kok store in Sim City as...

It's really simple, just pull them off and slide the SRH840's on.

Thanks for the suggestion. She doesn't really like music, she just enjoys talking. It is difficult to have a conversation when you have to yell everything you say so that she might hear parts of it. She isn't liking headphones or IEMs. But the idea is to have something she could put on or we...

Ok, I didn't know that. Thanks for the help. 

Hello HeadFi,   I'm looking to find a way to help my grandmother hear better without using a hearing aid (she refuses to wear them but can't hear unless people are yelling).   Since amps like the Fiio E6 are small, cheap, and contains a battery already, would it be possible to connect a mic...

Count me in. I don't have much gear but I can bring my M100 if anyone is interested.

Sounds good, where do I sign up?

Time and location is most important.

That's the idea. Just wanted to have more information so that I can be sure that I can make it before putting my name down. :)

Quote: Sounds like fun. When will you have more info? 

Sounds like fun. Can't wait for the next meet since I missed the last one.

Quote: Depending on the time you guys want to me I could do those days, but I get off work at 6 from Fanling for Tues-Fri.      (My place is... how do I put this.. crowded? messy? crowded?  And I still haven't gotten the speakers *yet*)

Quote: I have not checked the speaker shops in Shamshuipo yet but I might have to do just that and see what's available there.   If I could find room for larger speakers, I would definitely do it. Sadly, it isn't an option right now.     Measurement mic for measuring and tuning...

Thanks for letting me know Rhcw, I didn't know about the AV show. I'll see if I can wait that long since that is still a few months away. Hopefully I won't end up finding something around the same size at a much higher price point that I want. The lack of space is really reducing the number of...

Thanks Rhcw! I've been to Sim City and was around Mong Kok going to the different headphone stores a while back. I knew I had seen it somewhere but couldn't remember where and I also wanted to know pricing and place before going searching again. Thanks for the help. 

Hello HK HeadFiers,   I know this is Head-Fi, but my question is speakers related instead of headphones. Hopefully someone here can help me out. I'm looking to getting some desktop speakers with somewhat decent sound without too high of a price and was hoping to test out either the Swans M10...

Closed-back will not blocking out all the engine noise but depending on the closed-back noise isolating headphones, it will reduce the noise. This will depend on the headphone and the fit, if NC is extremely important to you then it won't be a match as you will still hear the engine noise, but...

  Hello hiki08, I'm also somewhat new here even though I've been following the forum for some time. From what I understand a non-NC and NC headphone in the same price range, the non-NC should be able to provide better sound than a NC version. If you are worried about noise leaking in and...

Thanks, it took about a week from when I ordered it to get to the east coast.

I ended up going with the M-100, their build quality seems a bit more durable and their size is easier to transport than the DT770s. Thanks for all the help TwinQY!

Quote: It is the lighting. They came out more of a greyish white. 

Quote: By more open I mean not sounding like it's in the head.   Thanks for the help!

Quote: I didn't know that IEMs are better values than full-sized equivalents. I'm not sure what sound preferences would be, I like my variety in music. From what I've tried I've found that the SE215 sounds appears to be just in the head instead of something more open? Not sure if that is...

Hello Head-Fi, I'm currently looking to purchase a new pair of headphones/IEM. I currently own the Shure SRH440 and SE215 and am looking for an upgrade. I do not prefer Shure over other brands but had gotten them due to finding them for a good price when I needed them. I would prefer something...
