Hi there, So, I was looking for a budget, but still great closed-back set of headphones, and I just picked up the Dt 177X last week. So far, I'm really happy with them - they seem to be a great all-arounder, which I like. but I've been looking at the DCA Aeon RT Closed phones and they look...

Well, that's sad news. I really hate proprietary crap. Now looking at the image you sent me, it looks like the irregular shaped washer seems to be missing as well. I know how sought after parts are for these headphones, so I'm not going to bother asking anybody for spares since I already know...

Wow, it's great to see that this thread is active after all this time. Anyhow, been wanting to take my D2000s out of retirement and perhaps do the MarkL mod on them. Can anyone point me in the direction of a page that has the step by step instructions with photos that aren't dead links? Also...

A lot of the well-known brands I would imagine such as Focal, Audeze, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, Denon, Fostex, Grado, Sony, Beyerdynamic, and so on. I'm finding it exceedingly difficult to find the right pair for me. I mean my budget isn't out of this world at $500-600, but I'm sure there...

Yeah I read about the Fostex drivers in Denon phones. You mentioned that there are many good headphones - got any more at the top of your head that would be a contender? True enough about the headphone amp. I'll definitely look into an upgrade, but my FiiO is still working perfectly. I gave...

Is that the only recommendation? I read that they are really close to the D2000s in terms of sound, and as awesome as they were for their time, I sort of want to stray away from those and try something more of an upgrade to them if they meet my preferences. As mentioned, I can do either Open or...

Hi everyone, So I've had my classic D2000s since 2007-2008, and I've absolutely loved them, but they're at that point where it's time for some new phones. I've been doing a lot of research and it's been difficult to say the least to choose that brand/model just right, so I thought I'd get some...

What would be an upgrade to these with the current selection? I was doing a little digging and saw the E-MU Teaks and the Fostex TR-X00s. I read good things about the E-MU Teaks, but I can't find anywhere to actually buy it except for their main site. Not too fond of it having the exact same...

Hi there, Been quite some years since I've looked at headphones, and my D2000s are falling apart sadly (with replacement parts almost impossible to find). Just wondering if anyone can suggest some phones that come close to or are on par with my beloved D2000s, and that aren't outrageously...

I actually saw the Fullcompass stuff, and it seems they sadly don't ship outside of the USA :frowning2:. All I really need is that tiny screw + washer to re-attach the cup to the band (right at the end where it swivels slightl). The one you linked is actually not the one though - it's extremely...

Hi there! So I've had these cans for over a decade, and I still absolutely love them, but they have been falling apart as of late. The left earcup came off the hinge and have since lost the tiny screw that was in there (the part that swivels slightly), and the headband leather has shredded to...

What's the difference between the 2 pads to justify the 50+ dollar price increase?  Also, is there any DIY guides for Tuning for better sound quality?

So I've had my AH-D2000s for quite a few years now and the leather or whatever material around the foam is pretty much gone now, so I need some new ones.  I read about the "JMoney" replacement ear pads, but those posts were from years ago and I wasn't able to find much about them as of now.  Can...

If anyone with the knowledge/experience can chime in here, it would be much appreciated. I need to pick up one or the other as soon as possible. Cheers! -Jayce

Thanks, but I know they work with them.  I want to know which is a better product overall.  Right now the E07K is $30 CAD less than the E17 and I'm interested to know if the E17 is worth the higher price tag.   -Jayce

Hi there!   I'm new to this forum and I'm just wondering out of the 2 listed in the topic, which one would be better and what are the pros/cons to both?  It's going to be used mainly on my laptop (it has one of the worst integrated soundcards ever - by Realtek) but I may also use it with my...
