    Junkie XL - Made For Each Other - Clipping/distortion (IF YOU LIKE THIS SONG, DON'T READ THIS!)

    As said, if you like this song, don't read this, you'll hear it as well and be annoyed , apologies in advance.   Walking to work this morning and listening to this great Junkie XL song called 'Made for each other' I had a bit of a fright thinking my HD25's were broken. I got to work and...

    Best classical recordings...ever!

    Very good example this one, listening to it, it sounds overly bright and the sound does not 'blend' very well, were as I like this one better: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Haydn-Creation-Joseph/dp/B000024JQ1/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1416253174&sr=1-1&keywords=haydn+creation+bernstein   Might...

    Thanks for the info guys, I'll check the suggestions! So if I'm understanding you guys correctly, Naxos can also be considered budget? Thanks again

    What do you guys think about Naxos releases? I've listened to a few and they are 'lifeless' to me. And best of Bach has a version of 'Wachet auf' (bwv 140) on organ which sounds like someone is still practicing. Any other experiences?

    I Like the LSO series:   http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beethoven-Symphonies-London-Symphony-Orchestra/dp/B000GUJYRE   Like Claritas pointed out, there is a threat about the subject, that's also where I found out about this recording.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantasia_(1940_film)   Check wiki as a first reference, I can remember that they used some extreme stereo stuff. If you also listen to Stokowski's version of Beethoven's 9th you can also hear that instruments have been placed in stereo rather than recording the...

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Check the threat here, there have been some guys providing some measurements for the AX90, maybe it matches, in which case you have the answer :)   Good luck!

    yeah, I've seen that, not bad at all actually.   Though I've heard one criticism that it is too fabricated and is far away from the 'real orchestra sound'

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Davidtanac,   You could also ask Comply themselves, if you can give them some details on diameter etc, they might be able to help you get the best tip.

    I love the RCA Living Stereo box.   Do any of you ever listen to the Phase 4 Stereo Concert Series? Seems they are great recordings as well though 'coloured' through the use of 24 mic's per recording to emphasise certain instruments above others on certain moments.

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Zebaron, I'm using the core of the included ones with the T400. But I have to be honest, though the comply's add more bass the overall sound is disappointing, sub bass is present and highs, mids are very much missing.

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Works with T400's as well! Wow, what a difference, bass is present now! It's advisable to use new foam tips (as the ones I took from other IEM's slipped off too easy)

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Ah ok, thanks. Thing is, I love these for their clarity mid and high but the bass sounds hollow. I have the suspicion that this is because the foam tips are too small. Ordered them from MP4Nation and they only came with one pair of foam tips, 2 pairs of rubber tips, all too small. They clearly...

    What size Comply foam tips for the Astrotec AM-90?

    Hi guys,   Apologies to continue on a older threat.   Just got my am90's from mp4nation and love them. They've included less accessories than before (small grey pouch with the standard set of 3 rubber caps and 1 set of smallish foam tips).   I'll order the 200's but what is exactly meant...

    Pioneer SE-MJ3B replacement for ear pads

    Hi all,   I'm still fond of my Pioneer SE-MJ3B headphones but the ear pads are worn out. I've searched the forum first and I've seen a post of someone that replaces the pad by the Sennheiser HD414 pads. As the yellow pads are not to my taste, does anyone know which other pads would fit...

    PRESS RELEASE: Sennheiser Introduces 'Universal' Headsets with Full Smartphone Compatibility, Based on Three of its Most Popular Headphones

    Seems to me they are securing a place in the market. Good for them. Having said that, it somehow does not feel audiophile when it has a mic/remote on it, but what do I know ;)
