    Ortofon e-Q5 Impressions Thread

    Does anyone know if the e-Q5s come with a separate warranty card?  The right side of mine crapped out after 4 months of moderate use and I'm starting the warranty return process with accessoryjack (they aren't an authorized dealer, so they handle warranty claims themselves, I guess).  I have the...

    Panasonic RP-HJE900 Zirconia Review

    Quote: Does the earpiece get quiet and sometimes cut out entirely?  At first I found I could get the sound back by rotating the cable, but that stopped working after a couple days.  It got so bad that it took a lot of fiddling to get any sound at all.  After the UE700 deal popped up I...

    MEElectronics "M What?" Promotion

    I ordered a second set right before the promotion ended but it was probably a mistake.  I should have just gotten M6s from amazon instead of risking getting another pair of M9 for the slim chance of getting an M11+

    MEElectronics "M What?" Promotion

    m9p   Although I obviously would have preferred something more expensive, these are more practical than anything else because I can use them at work without feeling obligated to baby them.  Plus the play/pause button on the mic is convenient for my ipod.   Sound quality is quite good...

    Got me them Panasonic HJE900 for 110 bucks

    BUILD quality may be good, but quality CONTROL seems to be lacking.  My new HJE900s died in less than a week.  I noticed that one of the buds was quieter than the other after a few days, and now that driver will sometimes go dead entirely.  It's not a cable issue since I can swap the buds and...

    IEM under 80$ - Sound signature like the HJE900?

    Bump to report same problem with new HJE900.  They seemed fine the first couple days but now one of the buds is quite a bit quieter than the other.   I'm trying panasonic support before I return them to the retailer because the retailer doesn't pay return shipping and will charge a 15%...

    iM716 DIY Pod Removal (aka, Podectomy)

    iM716 DIY Pod Removal (aka, Podectomy)

    Sorry to bump such an old thread.. I just did the podectomy and there's now a lot of hiss. I ordered 1/4w 47.5ohm resistors, will they fix it, or is the hiss caused by crappy soldering/wrapping? Will the resistors tone down the volume as well?

    Recommendations for Best headphones on the market (new and old)

    I'm looking for a replacement for my (busted) im716's. I liked they way they sounded, so something similar would be cool. I listen to all sorts of things, usually directly from my macbook pro, and I'd like to spend around $100. ER6 looks like a good choice, is there anything else I should...

    The ATH W1000's

    What the junk? Last time I checked, both of these (cd3000 and w1000) were both like $300 or $350. What's with the price increase?

    What the crap is going on here?

    I've been noticing a little flabbiness in the left driver of my SR-125's, so I looked closely at the driver and noticed that the middle of it on the right driver (the one that sounds flabby) is orange, while the left one is green. Are they supposed to be colored differently.. Also, what could...

    Mystery instrument

    I've never heard a piano like that..in a live concert or in recordings...I don't see how it could be a piano, i've listened to the clip like 100 times and i just don't think a piano sounds like that..the sound is too abrubt and woody to be a piano..

    Using altec lansing speakers as amps?

    My computer's headphone jack has no volume control, and I'm pretty sure it is unamplified... It sounds much better than the headphone jack on my klipsch promedia's ..but it's also a lot quieter.

    What the crap?

    I was fiddling with my audio options trying to remove this odd reverb (I never found the cause but i'm sure it's somehow related to warcraft 3), i solved it by restoring default settings for everything.. Anyway, while looking for the restore thing i found the creative mixer program that came...
