    Please help me identify the model of these vintage chrome 70s headphones I lost in a divorce

    I received these funky vintage chrome/silver/aluminum/metal cone-shaped on-ear headphones as a Christmas gift from an old friend in 2015. They were stolen by my ex-wife when she moved out, and I've been unable to track down a replacement pair ever since. 90% sure they were made in Japan and...

    Will be purchasing AudioQuest's Nighthawk headphones - would the optional Dragonfly DAC be a worthwhile investment for my circumstance?

    I've been using Sennheiser's HD380-Pro series closed back headphones for years. They're comfortable for hours of listening with no fatigue, and the 32db of passive cancellation are a nice plus. I'm ready to step it up.   My digital content is FLAC and V0 from my server. I also play vinyl on...

    Will the Audioquest Dragonfly 1.2 Measurably Improve Upon My Listening Scenario?

    I'm eying the Audioquest Dragonfly 1.2 DAC/Headphone Amplifier.   The Gear: • PC with a FLAC & 320CBR library • Subsonic Server with my Android phone as the access point • Denon DP-60L turntable with an Ortofon 2M Red cart • Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 phono stage (sorry) • Behringer...

    Pleather vs Leather: Debunking the durability myth.

    Just this week I suddenly realized that dried styling paste from my hair had gooped up on to the pleather padding across the headband of my HD-380 Pros. I panicked for a moment but was surprised to find that the gunk easily wiped away with a slightly damn cloth. I imagine leather would have been...

    Sennheiser Customer Looking to Upgrade

    You're right - a buyer comment exposed them as fakes.  Pardon my naivety, I instantly found several other questionable "factory direct from Hong Kong" sites offering them for suspiciously low prices.   But overall, at the $124 frequent eBay price point that I would spend on a legitimate pair...

    Sennheiser Customer Looking to Upgrade

    I've just found a solution that looks too good to pass up.  There are countless threads here praising the AudioTechnica ATH-M50's for best value under $200.  They meet nearly all of my specs - carrying case, rotating cups, leather pads, durable build quality, etc and from what people here say...

    Thanks for the quick response!   I just realized there is a thread called Buying headphones? Seeking guidance? DON'T START A NEW THREAD. Ask for advice HERE! and requested that the moderator move this discussion, but upon closer examination it seems a little "cluttered" over there.  Maybe...

    Sennheiser Customer Looking to Upgrade

    Hello all.  I've got a great setup and I'd hate to ruin it with a shoddy pair of cans.  My Sennheisers died so I'm hoping you can help.   I consider myself an audiophile but I don't have hundreds of dollars for a real quality pair of headphones.  I'm looking for the best value for around...
