    Are there downsides in using L Tips over M sized IEM Tips if both fit?

    I was wondering this for some time: I can get a good fit with both M and L size tips but L always feels more secure and both sizes seem to hold well in my ear. However the L size still gives me more confidence for whatever reason. I couldnt detect any differences in sound either with the 3-4...

    AKG K701 vs Sennheiser HD599 - amping the K701?

    Hi, currently i have both of these headphones here with me. What i noticed is that the HD599 offers more detail and especially more precise imaging. I always thought the K701 was supposed to be an analytical headphone but it falls short on detail and has blurry imaging. Now for the moment i run...

    Creative Sound BlasterX G6

    This new device looks very promising. The headphone amp now has a very low output impedance. Sadly i could only find reviews from gamers, creative should send some samples to audiophiles. One review even used a 20 Dollar headphone, not very helpfull. I hope we can collect some impressionshere.

    Ultrasone Pro i series. 750i and 900i

    Ultrasone launches a Remake of their classic headphones. I couldnt find a thread yet. I might go for the Pro 750i. I prefered the old 750 over the 900. The 900 was a bassmonster. I wonder if they go for something new or stay with the old tuning. Besides that the new headband looks great.
