    That _____ Sound

    In the process of upgrading from my A700's, this idea ran by me: do companies have a signature "sound"?    I'll elaborate a little. When I started looking for a replacement for my A700 that sounded similar but was open instead of closed, the first thing I though was, since it's in the same...

    PL30 Replacements

    Well after about two years my PL30's have finally developed their first issue, a little buzz in the left diaphragm. So I'm looking for a replacement.   As far as what I'm looking for, I liked my PL30's response. Very neutral, very flat. At times it would become boring, and didn't respond...

    House of Marley Positive Vibrations (review)

    My roomate mentioned something to me about getting a new mp3 player and some headphones a week ago. This past weekend I reminded him of it, so we nabbed an open box Fuze off New Egg for $40, and so it was on to headphones.   We went to Best Buy, and despite having both the Koss DJ100 and the...

    I'm back, and looking for the next step.

    Well I have been on these forums for a couple of years, but I'm actually just returning from a hiatus due to being so very satisfied with my MS1's, PortaPros, 238's, and 75's. These headphones, especially the 238's and MS1's, have kept me occupied for quite a while, and so I focused my very low...

    How do you solder LOD pins?!

    I bought a lod on ebay and it has proceeded to die on me, so i decided to make my own. After a idiotic 2 week wait for quables my 4 docks came in. I began by using navships 24g 19 strand silver coated wire and a neutrick jack and such to make it easy. I have a 2g touch, so i had to get the...

    I need a precise way of testing channel imbalance.

    I recieved my Meelc M6s yesterday, and im fairly positive there is a channel balance favoring the left side. I have tried: all tips included and some foamies from some philips with 9mm drivers. the tips dont fix the issue, but just change the amout of severity, with the foamies coming closest to...

    IEMs with slight V curves.

    I decided to head straight on into this, as my other thread failed. Im looking into ~$40 IEMs as my first ones (and only because i don't frequent them, but need some arshmallow replacements). I prefer a natural V curve to the sound signature unless i'm at home in peace, where a flat...

    USB? DAC? SPDIF? Amp? Soundcard? AH!

    I swear this forum is like alphabet soup sometimes... Well I'm on the warpath to upgrade my computer setup. I'm running out of an Asus X83V to an MS1i, currently on the headphone out. I'm stuck from here on. Quick question, my headphone jack says "S/PDIF" and has a headphone symbol, and...

    Custom Headphone Rack (Pics)

    My week + weekend product has yielded its great result. Neck recover from old broken guitar (because the neck cracked). All wood was cut and sanded by me with some assistance on assembly from my father as the end neared. Total working hours was approx 40 hrs. The final product was the...

    Who wants to sacrafice about $30?

    Haha, well the first "decent" headphones I got were a pair of Maxell DHPii (Digital High Performance 2) from a local music store in our mall. They came with a great bag, extension, and 1/4" adapter. But as for the important part, to my "analytical" listening, I cant seem to find a set that...

    Songs That Give You the Goosebumps (the good ones)

    Those songs where you hear a piece of the composition, a piano lick, guitar riff, bass drop, break, key shift, or anything else you can think of, and you are always overcome by goosebumps and a general pure sense of glee, as though, for that two and a half minutes, nothing else matters. For...

    I'm trying to take my first real dive and order an ms1 from alessandro, but my norton security is freaking out and complaining about some "certificate error." Anyone wana tell me why norton says, and i quote, "If you choose to ignore this error and continue, do not enter private information...

    Why isn't there a sticky on ear care?

    Of all things i consider most important in my listening, its how well I can actually hear. I know it may "gross-out" some to think about earwax, infections, or general anatomy of the ear, but it is very important. If you don't mainain the cans your mother gave you, than what good is a $1400 or...

    Well, after dinner, me and my brother took a trip to Best Buy (I wanted to laugh a the bose's , and see what else they had) and low and behold, I stumbled upon this Porta Pro. I was debating on getting my MS1i currently, but since the Koss's were $50 less, and I had heard the good reviews, I...
