Just wanted to post this and share just in case anyone is searching for an iPod LOD or Line Out Cable/Converter. I located quite a few at Mingo Headphones in Mong Kok (Sim City) this afternoon. Prices ranged but the one I got was $105HKD. "AW Audio Line Out iPhone White" was the name of it.  ...

I've owned both cans. The sound signature and/or quality is not at all similar between the two. Do yourself a favor and test both first. IF you still can't make up your mind at that point buy whichever one is cheapest at the time. If you want my opinion the M50 is a much much better sounding...

Went to the shoppes yesterday with the intention of walking out with either a pair of Philips Fidelio X1 or AKG K701s. This was based on reviews I've read vs my personal tastes. Tested both. Very long story short, came home with an AD900x instead. At this price, and comfort level they wow'd me...

It seems that I am :) Thanks audioKyle

Thank you Eddie C and Nicolas L!

Hi Hong Kongers,   I'm Tim, a U.S. Expat new to Hong Kong. Just found this thread by searching for 'Mingo'. I visited their Wan Chai location recently and was looking to see if anyone had discussed any of their other locations.  Primarily wanted to say hello! :)

I'm letting my Q40s go to a new home. Time to try something different. So if you've been on the fence and stalking this thread, follow the link    http://www.head-fi.org/t/651076/m-audio-studiophile-q40-w-bonus

I wouldn't. The isolation isn't great and the ear cups don't swivel. These are strictly monitor type phones, so I don't think a DJ would be pleased with them. I do have experience with the Audio Technica M50s and I'd recommend them highly for DJs.

I've found that removing (or not installing) the ear baffles that come with the pads helped clear up some of the woolyness sp? Also the leather better dynamic pads, to my ears, make them a bit less airy, boomy maybe, and more accurate. Velour feels better however, much better lol Cheers Sent...

Most will. Has to be pretty narrow mind you. See the above references for a greater explanation of that. Most "iPhone" approved cables should work since they are made with squeezing past a bulky case in mind. Cheers Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Your hearing is fine. Get another pair of headphones or get used to EQing them. (Former Crossfade LP owner). Other than fashion and 'perceived' build quality they are inferior to most other phones in their price range. Especially sonically. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Wow it so obvious now lol. Good eye DeanKeith!

Quote: Yeah same here (reviews). Pictures look rendered/pre-production so it looks like they've yet to have been released rather than out-of-stock?? 

Quote: I've never found the bass to be bloated. Plentiful but not hyperextended. You may want to try different earpads and see if that changes things a bit towards better.  

Yeah, I found out about these yesterday. I've been eyeballing a pair of AV40s but I want to wait and see what these are about first. I love my mhp-839s so I'm willing to give MP a chance on these. 

Yeah, what was the price?

Just thought I'd post a pic of the V-Moda cable I use. Works great and I love the way it looks. I got the 3 button so I can use it with my Apple products.     

Quote: Wow, I've never seen that cable before. Hopefully someone here knows 

I'm thinking of selling my pair. I love them but I'd like to try something else (new) and I'd need the cash from a sale in order to do that. Just thinking out loud. 

Quote: Looks great! Nice find.

Quote: I haven't experienced that problem..yet. Hope you get that taken care of. I love these headphones, I hope they don't fall apart on me . I just ordered a new V-Moda 3 Button cable and a set of Beyerdynamic 770 leather pads for them. I want to find out if they are any better than my...

Quote: I wonder why AdBlock would cause that? Anyway thanks to those that posted here and the OP. It helped me to figure out what was wrong. :)
