    CURSE You Head-Fi! The next stage.

    Sigh... I'd been doing do well. Left here 2 years ago with a pair of DT-880's, and DT 250's. Found their sound amazing, and loved the way they sounded with the type of music that I listened to. I'm happy with my setup and the way it sounds with the type of music I listen to. It's all...

    Portable Sennheiser Score!

    Went biking today, and on a whim, decided to check into the Sears down the road. Never really been in there, as I really didn't have a reason. Somthing today pushed me into the store. Not really sure what it was. Anyway, looked around, and found the audio section. Looked around, didn't see much...

    Back to Hi-Fi after a year...WOW!

    Just finished my first year of college, and have been away from my really nice pairs of headphones. One pair, my DT250's are probably gone forever, as both earcups were broken off during an overcrowded bus ride Don't think they're fixable to the point that they'll sound like they did. They...

    Help with a Sony D-121 PCDP

    I just bought a Sony D-121 from a garage sale. At first it wouldn't stay on. When I pushed play, the display displayed 00, then shut off. A trip through the DIY Diskman repair thread fixed that, sort of. I think it's good now. But now, as I play a disk, it gets trough about 40 seconds of any...

    Cheap Portable Foldable Durable Headphones

    So, for about a year I have been using a pair of Sony MDR-34A Headphones. I like them because they are small, fold, are like earbuds, but have a headband. I use them on the way to school and then fold them up and stuff them in my pocket. They have a rather thin cord, and the cord finally wore...

    Sound Signature of DT 250's?

    I am looking into getting DT 250's, but can't figure out what their sound signature is like. I have heard some people say that they are neutral, others say they are bass heavy, bass deficient, treble heavy or treble rolled off. Can people who have experience with these headphones give some...

    "neutral" closed portable headphones?

    I know that this is hard to really achive, but I am looking for a pair of portable headphones that could be considered neutral. I own a pair of DT 880's and would like to find a pair of closed cans that sound similar to them. I am looking for phones that are quick, detailed, neutralish or...

    Beyer 250 pads on ATH M30's?

    I am looking at buying a pair of ATH M30's ($50) and would like to put the Beyer 250 velor pads on them. I am wondering if this is possible. I can't tell if there is a size difference between them that would make them incompatable. Does anyone have any ideas? Suggestions? Thank You S.T.

    Music Sound Quality Questions

    I listen to a wide range of music, from all kinds of sources. I have ~50 CD's which I've ripped in lossless, but also listen to music I get from the internet. LEGALLY. (www.ocremix.org, vgmix.com) These are mostly songs that are remix's of video game music. The problem is that most of the music...

    Old DT 880 Availibility

    How much longer do you think that the old DT 880's are going to be able to be found at online stores, (headroom, TTVJ, B&H, etc.) before the new models come out. I really prefer the look of the old 80's, but won't have the cash to buy them until... Jan. or Feb. Do you think they'll still be...

    Does anyone "outside" really understand?

    I have been bitten by the "audio enthusiast" bug, and have built myself a respectable stereo setup; 6 speakers, reciever, etc, and have finally gotten that to the point where I am happy with it. I now want my headphones to match that feeling/sound. I am therefore investing in a pair of DT 880's...

    Dang! Looking for "old" 880's!

    I am looking to buy a pair of DT 880's, but due to financial constraints, it does not look like I will be able to purchase them before December of this year, or January/Feb. of next year. I really do not like the look of the redesigned 880's. I love the flat, old school look of the old DT 880's...
