Recently I have been (blessed?) with the opportunity to buy the beloved AKG K1000 for $600. The cans are used, with the drivers being in great shape. However, the cable housing on the left phone is cracked open exposing the insolation of the wire (the cable is uncut and perfectly fine, it's just...

Hey their folks, I've been searching hard and trying to find the answer. But after several days in the bowls of Head-fi and Head-room I figured I might as well ask. I'm looking for a portable amp (travel friendly might be the better word here) that will suit my low impedance cans. I have a...

Hey there fellow head-fiers. I'm greatly interested in putting together a meetup in the greater Las Vegas area and I wanted to see the level of interest expressed. I know this area has an extreme amount of DJ folks as well as plentiful studio and show techs. Give a shout out if you are...

After seeing several deals here and there, and several threads of people spotting new headphones deals it would be nice to have it all in one place where it would be easy to find and locate the most recent deals. So if you have any great deals that you feel guilty in not sharing post them here.*...

Hey there folks,   I return back onto the subject of my beloved pair of YH-3 cans. My question is on re-cabling the headphones. After years of love and abuse (they were used in radio stations for years, and the cable has seen its fair share of the crushing force a chair legs) the left...

Since as long as I can remember, I've always been greatly moved by African slave spirituals as well as African tribal music. I wish to get more, and expand that specific part of my library. Any suggestions? I'm looking for anything that falls under this really. For now I'll just continue to...

Hello Head-fi, the cash is in and I'm looking to spend $300USD on some cans to last for a good while.  To start, they will be amped from a NAD 7220PE where the headphone amp section specs are: "Output impedance:  220ohms Maximum output level: .10V into 600ohms >500mV into 8ohms"  That...

    Hello everyone, today I went over to my grandfathers to assist him host his occasional garage sale. When I was moving things around I came across some old headphone he had set out (I didn't help with  inventorying). Anway, the headphones are both old Japanese cans presumably from his...

Before anyone gives me any flack about buying Bose, these cans are my brothers that I use on occasion and now am finding myself fixing. Okay, so here's the problem. For awhile now the connections of the cable have been coming loose at the left ear piece and at the 3.5mm pin jack. I cut the...

I'm curious to see what the general opinion is here? I have been talking about this amongst friends and family. I'm for team Gabriel.

Okay guys! I've been on the market for some portable cans that do me justice at the $100 price point! I've been researching this site for months looking for a good set of cans. At first I was thinking about grabbing a pair of Senn HD280's or maybe a pair of Sony MDR-v6's. Finally though, I kind...

Hello everyone, let me tell you guys what is going on and hopefully some of you guys can give me some pointers. Awhile back I was digging around with some old audio equipment of my dad's and I found some of his old headphones from his days when he worked in the radio. Among the equipment was...
