I'm so mad right now I want to stick my head in a microwave. I bought new HD580s from Amazon about 2 years ago. These were purchased new directly from Amazon and have been on a stand in my living room when not on my head. For whatever reason the headband cracked then eventually broke. Sucks...

After about 2 years of service the headband on my Senn 580s cracked tonight. There are actually several small cracks right at the apex of the plastic band. Does Sennheiser sell replacement headbands for these things? If not how can I get these back in service? They have well over a thousand...

I was listening to the local NPR station's classical music program the other night and heard a wonderful piece that I've yet been able to locate. It was performed by the Minneapolis Orchestra in the Minneapolis Orchestra Hall. Not sure of the date. It featured a Finnish tenor with an angelic...

Love this lady's voice and would like to hear more of her. What is a good place to start in her catalog? Thanks!

I see this a lot here and other places. What does compression mean when referring to a recording? What are some examples of recordings that are compressed and recordings that are not? Thanks!

My humble PA2V2 seems to run out of gas at about half volume trying to power my Senn 580s. The source is 5th G iPod with a Sik Din connector. What would be a good replacement that could handle 580s at respectable levels while maintaining quality? I'm open to any and all suggestions. I would like...

I'm a little late to the party on these guys but I've been listening to Plans - a lot - lately and love it! Is the rest of their stuff comparable to this sound and depth of emotion? "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" + 580s = BEAUTIFUL!

I ordered a pair of the KSC75 phones based on the reviews here and the price/quality recommendations. These things were about $20 shipped (eek Technology via Amazon). Wow! Just amazing that such sound comes from something so, well, cheap. My normal Senn HD 212 Pro phones are great but a little...
