    How much heat will it take to ruin my headphones?

    The only hot place I leave my headphones is in the car while I'm out and about or something, but is that hot enough to damage them? Namely, the m50s and 840s.

    Audio-Technica ATH-OR7

    Anyone in Europe/Japan managed to try them? They don't seem to be in the US yet, as basically every site with them is European or in Japanese. Here's the link to AT's shop: http://www.audiotechnicashop.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=35_43&product_id=87 I'd really like to try these...

    Volume of Headphones

    Something I've had on my mind ever since I first heard headphones until now when I finally remembered to post something about it. So, when headphones are on your head/in your ears, are they really as loud as the perceived volume? For example, if one perceives the volume to be 100db, but takes...

    Closed rock/metal headphones

    I've been looking for some for so long, but the only thing I've found is Grados, but Grados won't work as the design is 100% open. My house is somewhat noisy, so me having open phones is nearly impossible for it to be enjoyable at all. M50's are the only real headphones I have, but the bass...

    Spring at the end of M50's wire...

    So, basically, after apparently too much pulling on the spring to remove it from my headphone jacks, the spring at the end of my M50's wire came off the jack. I can't, for the life of me, get it back on, and the rough edges of the jack where it comes in contact with the wire would, probably...

    Some closed Senns?

    I recently heard some HD595's, but, I didn't like the open-ish design. So, I'm looking for some closed Sennheisers. My range is about $150. Currently looking at some PX360, as they look really comfortable...

    Grado's that isolate?

    I'm currently eyeing some Grado headphones, but the isolation, from what I hear, is sub-par. I also hear they're good for rock/metal, my main listening genre.   So, I would like to know if there's a way, even as a mod, to have some isolating Grado's. If there isn't a way, are there any other...

    How did you come to be an audio lover?

    Be it your first hi-fi 'phones, your first lossless-music experience, or a friend: How did you become an audiophile?   For me it was a personal thing: I realized one day that my iBuds just weren't cutting it anymore. After moving up to a better, but still low-fi headphone, I figured out that...

    Looking for my first "big" purchase(as if you guys don't see that enough)

    I'm not gonna explain all the details, but basically, I'm a budding Audiophile looking for my first "big" headphone purchase. I have a pair of XB500's, but after the break-in period, they just got WORSE! The bass cracks at about 50% volume and on top of that, the mids got worse. My warranty is...
