    Missed the last Bay Area meetup... Any chances another might roll around soon?

    I learned about it the week after it happened and let the sadness just wash over me :( The SF Bay Area is a big place, though, and I am sure another meet here could tap a lot of users who could not make the first one!

    Kenwood KH-K1000 or ATH W1000X ?

    I have been STRUGGLING with this decision for some time now. Both can come in at the same price (399.99).   My current setup: Laptop -> Audioquest Dragonfly -> Schiit Lyr -> HD650/DT990 Premium   I am looking something that complements the HD650, especially in terms of making my female...

    Afraid to make the plunge on the HE 400. Can anyone address my two fears?

    Hi,   My current set up is Audioquest Dragonfly -> Schiit Valhalla (stock tubes) -> HD 650. I love the sound.   However, I do want to try something new. To that end, I was thinking of selling my rig and running the HE 400 straight from my Dragonfly.    I am scared to make the plunge...

    Open Headphones and Safe Volume

    Hi all,   I have been using my Sennheiser HD650 and 598 for some time right now, and I have noticed that I cannot really do a great job of telling when the volume is TOO loud, since the sound is not assaulting my earbuds (especially with the HD650!). I'd like to hold on to those hair cells...

    What does it mean for headphones to be "warm" or "dark"

    I have the HD 598s and the HD 650s are on their way. I have often heard that the HD 598s are classified as "warm" while the HD650 are classified as "dark". Where can I find out what these mean? I keep getting conflicting responses.

    Do you guys feel COMPELLED to listen to music since you bought nice headphones?

    Hi all,   I've spent a lot of money on headphones (at least relative to income). I somehow feel like this compels me to use them everyday. Does this happen to you? How many hours a day do you end up listening to music?

    DT770's clamped too hard. Alternatives?

    I loved the sound of my DT770s. I didn't love the clamping force - with my glasses, I was getting headaches every time I wore the DTs for more than an hour. What are some good alternatives with a similar sound?   Looking for: - Circumaural, closed/semi-closed (These are my portable...

    Sennheiser HD-598's louder on one side?

    When I have the headphones on they seem louder on the right side.  Is my brain playing tricks on me?   Some other factors to note:   Bought this refurbished, and it did not come with the 3.5mm adapter for the cable. This has led me to use my Sennheiser Momentum cable with the Hd-598's...
