    Headphones with better imaging than Sennheiser HD 800

    Hey there, guys.   You know... some people are bass-heads, other people are treble-heads... well, I am what you could call an "imaging-head".   I know that the HD 800 are outdated, thin souding and blah blah blah, but despite their flaws, I haven't been able to find a pair of headphones with...

    Problem with Unique Melody

    Hey there!   Like 2 months ago I bought the UM Merlin from their website, and everything went fine until yesterday: they sent me an email telling me that the IEMs were ready for shipping, and after that they sent me the tracking number. As some of you might know, Unique Melody site says that...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 v/s Pro 900 S-Logic (?)

    Hey guys.   I'm about to get the Ultrasone Pro 900, but I have read about a "Pro 900 S-Logic" model. Is the "S-Logic" part just a second name for the regular "Pro 900", or it is a totally different model?   Thanks in advance for your help.

    Question about balanced amplifiers

    First off, sorry for such a noob question! The story goes as follows: a friend of mine, who is a very good electronic technician, worked on a balanced amplifier for his HiFiMAN RE-ZERO, and I asked him if he could make one for me too for my HiFiMAN RE-272. The question is: is it strictly...

    Question about Superlux headphones' impedance

    Hey guys   I was wondering... I have the Superlux HD 668Bs, and they say they have a "56x2 ohms" impedance. A friend of mine has the HD 330s, which have a "150x2 ohms" impedance. What does the "x2" part exactly mean? Are they really 56/150 ohms respectively, or more like 112/300 ohms?

    Amp v/s bass roll-off on Cowon D2

    Hey there!   Well, now I own a Cowon D2 and Radius DDM headphones, and there is a noticeable roll-off in the subbass when using the Cowon, thing that doesn't happen when I use, for example, my computer's sound card as source.   The thing is that I'm planning on getting the UM Merlins in...

    Modding Radius DDM IEMs

    I'm going to be honest: I don't know a single thing about earphones "DIY-ing".   Now that you know the truth: I have been wondering a lot these days about what would happen if I opened my Radius DDM's housings, removed the 7 mm tweeters from them and somehow replaced them with the 9 mm...

    Rather stupid question about 'Radius' brand.

    Dear people,   I was wondering, is the company that makes the "Radius Atomic Bass" models the same one that makes the DDM models?   Well, why I'm asking this? There are two reasons: the first is that DDM models do not appear in Radius website: http://www.radiusearphones.com/   The...

    Audition problem

    Hi there!    Well, I want to buy a new audio player, and I count with a budget up to US$ 200. I will use unamped HiFiMAN RE0 phones and I'll be listening to lossless and high bitrate MP3 audio files. I'm aiming specially towards sound quality and expandability (i.e. memory card(s) support)...
