Looking to switch out my headphone and try the HE-400.  Would it be much of an upgrade going from the DT-880 to the HE-400.  Also, I don't want to keep too many phones, so not sure if I would sell the DT-880 or the Denon D2000 after I purchase the HE-400.  I hate Head-Fi, gives me too much...

For the Voshkod 6ZH1P-EV, has anyone bought and tested the version without the EB (EV).  How do they sound compared to the ones with EV that is so popular in here.  ...

Looking to buy a set of GE JAN5654W from the first page as it is well rated and I only have stock now.  Of these two auction, I'm thinking the first one is the correct one, but what is the difference between the first one and the one that says JAN JLRV?  ...

Which tubes would be good to go with a pair of Beyerdynamic dt-880 600ohm? Would the stock be decent with them?

Quote: I have thought about that as well.  Will the sound be as good through output to the amp.  With 3.5mm, I guess there is more room to make the jack faulty.

Trying to simplify my setup now.  Want a portable Amp/Dac for traveling with my laptop and then when I am at home, just output it to a desktop amp via RCA for bigger headphones.  Only two I know is the U-Dac2 and Ibasso D7.  D7 has a quality DAC chip, but I heard it is flaky with driver issue...

Samson SR850 for cheap.  Should I even pick these up to try just because they are $35?   http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=35_766_780&item_id=050504

Picked up the TBSE1 yesterday.  Sounds good out of the box, but the smaller round shape of the headphone still need some getting use to.  One thing that I did right away was used a spare V-Moda cable (ordered 2 for my Fostex T50RP, one in red/black and one grey/black).  The grey/black cables...

Quote: Used www.shopbot.ca and search for PRODJ100.  Site with it for $45 is http://www.hookbag.ca/product/H3C06TPVK/

I'm going to order a pair for $45 in Canada.  If anyone else in Toronto is interested in a pair, let me know.  Free shipping over $75, so 2 pairs will qualify, comes out to $50.xx for a pair after tax.  If no one is interested, will pay the $10 shipping charges and order tomorrow.

Cables from Brainwavz are nice and short.  Shipped within 1 week. Would recommend the shorter cable!

Great tip BloodyPenguin, I did this right after I read your post.  Digitech just sounds and looks cheesy, digtial + technology, lol.  Looks so much better completely OEM!

Just received my headphones today.  Great deal, but in Canada it is always ruin by taxes and duty.  Got charged $10 processing fee and $8 taxes, so grand total is $88.  I thought it was process when it was shipped!  

Quote: I don't have them myself so I'm cutting and pasting a review.   "I bought the T20RP MKII expecting the same driver as in the T50RP, except with some damping changes. I was exactly right -- the driver is the same, but the felt damping of the bass ports and the middle knob are...

I think the Fostex T20RP MK II has the same drivers as the T50RP and can be had for $55 at B&H.  They are also moddable, so with the money you save, you can spend on the modding material.

Quote: Was scanning around earlier today and came upon this on the FA-003 post, its a rebrand of FA-003 that comes with a spare earpad and for the price of $50 + $20 shipping.   Thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/491632/review-fischer-audio-fa-003-a-neutral-champ/2355#post_8388452  ...

Hey Iron Snake, I see that you have the Fostex T50RP as well.  So will the spare pad fit the Fostex, if so then bonus for me!  Also, are they hard to put on if thy do fit.   Thanks,

  Quote:   hmm, I'll look into the suspension mod, what material did you use?  just the paper or leather?

Damn, that does look comfy.  Just jump to B&H and unfortunately they don't ship this outside of Canada  Quote:    

just did a quick measurement, looks like it is around 8 feet.   Quote:  

Ok, I have one on its way.  Never thought of the O2 as portable, but then again, I've never seen one in person before.  From pictures, it looks just slightly smaller then a desktop amp.   Quote:  

Ordered my cables with a 1/8 to 1/4 adapter last Thursday and got it in the mail yesterday.  Fast shipping Canada for only $5 and they even threw in some stickers.  I got the red and black/gray one, only complaint so far is that it is a bit too long for portable use.  Also, found that the T50RP...

Thanks for the heads up!  I'm good with either coil or straight, but that was the only replacement I can see in Canada.  As long as its not 10ft like the orignal cables and I can take them out, I am happy.  Ordered a red and a black/gray one, both looks good in some of the pictures I saw. Will...
