Is this an X3 / DX50 competitor?   I was browsing around again rereading impressions on the Xueling IHIFI 812v2 and the bigger brother the 960 ( again yeah ), and ran across this IHIFI 760 from Xueling ( a.k.a XUELIN ) .  It appears this is a smaller version of those two and if the sound...

Hello fellow TDK T-300 fans, and also those who were on the fence with the MT-300. Yeah there's always a few of those folks also.    As many who had the opportunity to hear them and be a part of the "cheapos surprise tour" were so impressed with the bang for beyond buck TDK MT-300, we...

Was browsing around and ran into these. It reminds me of the old Bonephone from a decade or two ago that used simply a rectangular pad to transmit the sound to directly vibrate your inner earbone. Nobody could hear a thing except you. The last Bonephone I saw on ebay fetched a very...

Just ran across these while browsing a dedicated headphone shop and saw their interesting mechanism for the fit.  Anyhow here is their site, you'll see what i mean. definitely, well, different.   http://www.molami.com/#/home   Simply scroll down and you will see what I mean. They...

Not sure how long these have been around but there's no hits in here for them.  Thought I would ask and/or let people know they existed for what it's worth, as the only thing I see by them is usually their IEM's.   The only ones I can see look like they are hovering around the $130 mark.  ...

Well. It has taken me quite some time to get around to this post. December 17 2011 exactly 5 months to this date. Wow never noticed that one.   Taking for granted you know about the infamous Peter Belt. If not look him up. I won't go into that here.   I'm sure many of you will be...

  Just got a notice today about these new Koss Striva sets.     While it's not my particular thing I have quite a few friends who would probably be interested in this and can see how it would appeal to a number of people who have their places wired to the teeth already.  Looks as...

Pretty creepy. Bordering on freaksville. http://www.geekologie.com/2012/01/terrifying-ultra-realistic-beavis-butthe.php

I did a search but nobody seems to have this posted up just yet. Hang onto your wallets! (Coming in Q2) 2012 Talk about design. I think it's aesthetically excellent, maybe you disagree. They were mentioned as hovering around the $399 mark retail on release. At least that's what the rep...

Check this out the second video link there looks real in spots,  This is so amazing I don't know what to say. Co$t a fair bit and took 6 years. "It took a grand total of six years to build but an incredible new miniature model, called Knuffingen Airport, based on Hamburg’s airport, has finally...

I'm trying my darndest to prevent the Bose purchase. ( YOU too can help ) My folks were originally going to get a Bose system to replace their stereo setup I graciously permanently borrowed after blowing up mine ( don't ask...some things don't like a common ground I forgot ), and I sent them out...

Well I am intrigued. I ran across a pair of what i think my be electrets, but were advertised as Electrostatic Condenser Headphones. The reason I think they may be electrets is the plug end. From electrets I have run across so far , that I have seen and own, this style of connector with the...

 Just ran across an AM radio kit that has as part of the package  20 MILLION OHM Ceramic Crystal Piezoelectric headphones. ( fullsize and mono of course )   Is that a typo or? Its from a "hard to find electronics" shop.  I assume they mistook the 20k for million instead of thousand? The...

Nabbed a set of PWB ( or is that P.W.B.) Electrostatic headphones online. Talk about audio history. They're just missing one label on the side but otherwise they sure do look interesting. Unfortunately there is no Transformer box with it, which as I understand was slightly different inside than...

   

Maybe this has been put out there already I could find no post of the sort.  With all the sponsored cans floating around, as well as so many OEM manufacturers and custom modders in here, together with the massive knowledge, experience and INFLUENCE this forum has, why is there not ( at least...

I think I just scored something very rare. Not that the phones themselves are that rare, ( actually I think they are getting so ) but an unused 38 year old pair,  still in the box and never fired up sure is.( according to auction ) That's what I just scored on a buy-it-now. For some reason it...

Do the Audio Technica AT-705 Elecrets need to have the adapter box they plug into ( 4 pin DIN ) or can these be modded to run off a decent amp with a 1/4" jack? I searched around a fair bit for an answer but nothing. I would assume they do but on the off chance the mod will work somehow that...

Someone in here has to know somebody.... Was wanting to know if anyone has a restored amp or knows someone with an amp that SAM KIM of Sam's Audio Labs has worked on? I am debating whether to send in my tube to him for a nutso resto. I would consider it an investment for down the road that...

This should be the place to post this. Basically I was starting to clean up my Heathkit AA-151 tube amp and what do you know... no headphone out jack anywhere to be found.  How do I go about grafting in a 1/4" headphone out jack on this beast? My headphones are all higher ohm ( 600 and 400 )...

I figured the CABLES section would be about the best place to hit up. I recently got a pair of 1968-1970 German GRUNDIG model 211A 400ohm headphones and they have odd ends. I need help with either adaptors, options for replacing the connectors, information as to what they used to connect to so...

I'll get some pictures up later today, but can someone please enlighten me on what looks to be a vintage set of Grundig  211 A headphones... Wondering what their construction is, sound quality, rarity, what year roughly, etc etc. These are in amazing shape and they have the ribbed cords from...

FIRST DECENT CAN PURCHASE. I have a feeling that this website is going to send me off in an entirely new and expensive direction. I really didn't take the warnings seriously..... I'm taking the bait. This place made me grab a set of Nu-Force NE-7M's a little bit ago and now this.  They are a...

I am new around here for posting but am constantly browsing these forums for reviews and info. Incredible place this is.  There has been one thing in particular that has been eating at me for ages now. I picked up these headphones in '91-'92 for $4 at a garage sale as I have always been...
