    Headphones like these, cheaper the better?

    I have had Superlux HD681 and Beyerdynamic DT990 250ohm and I'm looking for something else that performs about as good and is as cheap as possible (my budget is honestly low - I'm not trying to cheap out). Superlux had good sound but they were uncomfortable as hell (the paddings especially) and...

    Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro - what is this edition I have?

    There seems to be two editions, the 'common' one is this: http://www.gearnuts.com/images/closeup/xl/1600-DT990Pro_detail1.jpg   And the one I have is this: http://medias.audiofanzine.com/images/normal/beyerdynamic-dt-990-pro-487544.jpg   How is my edition different? Mostly I see the first...

    Which amp (or soundcard) for DT990?

    Buget's around $50 (incl. shipping to Europe).   I have seen really positive mentions of CMOY amps, and I found them on two sites (http://fredsamplifiers.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_16&products_id=33 and http://www.lucidlaboratories.com/shop-1/cmoy-headphone-amplifier or...

    Noise-calling headphones

    Basically I'm looking for something to wear while I just want to be in silence. I don't want any sounds at all, except perhaps that of my keyboard, but I can still hear my computer fans, people outside, people in other rooms, etc., etc.. Sometimes I just want to be in silence for a while.  ...

    Modding my Superlux 668B & comments/impressions so far!

    I've bought a pair of these, and after listening to them for a few days (over 10h/day), I've modded them a little bit. I've noticed the burn-in difference after ~30h, by the way. Anyway, the mods I've done so far (pics numbered below the descriptions, so scroll down for reference):   1. Added...

    What to use as foam for headphone pads?

    Is there some kind of material I could use as foam for the pads? I'm making my own (I want them to be a bit taller, as right now my ears are touching the inside of the headphones).   I know that you could use pretty much anything, but I don't want it to mess with the way my headphones sound (I...

    Cheap but decent quality amp for 250 ohm headphones?

    I'm new to this, so I don't really know much about amps yet, however I know that the headphones that I currently like the most (Beyerdynamics DT990) are gonna require 250 ohms to be used at its full potential. I'm gonna use them only on my computer, not on anything else, so the amp doesn't have...

    Which headphones should I buy? (more details inside)

    Currently I'm using Roccat Kave - amazing headset due to the multiple speakers - it's very immersive when watching movies or playing games, and I like how it encloses my ears so that I'm sort of isolated from the outside noises when listening to music (and doing the things above). However...

    Old Russian speakers - connecting to my computer

    They're called "Amfiton 35ac-018." They are old Soviet speakers, supposedly high quality ones. They are huge. I would like to hook them up to my PC, but I don't know how. I have a converter wire (red/black to one connector), but it didn't work. It had contact, but it didn't really fit to plug...
