Massdrop AKG K812 Giveaway! - COMPLETE!
WHOA! Sweet. MD username is Fumobs. Someone mentioned HE-6...been looking for anything planar, really, but it would be nice to see Hifiman's. Personally been waiting for UE900's if possible. :) ***EDIT*** UE900...or the UE 4 Pro. I'd be more excited for the UE 4 Pro.- fumobs

Livesoundwave.com and Head-Fi promotion - $50 off orders of $200 or more!
I could never understand how these deals really work at all for the customer. GC does this a lot and it's always turned my head sideways trying to figure out why you would even do such a thing. $50 off $200 is the best deal here...a maximum 25% discount. But once you hit a price point of...- fumobs

Memorial Day "Make an Offer" Sale
Thanks for your response! What I'm wondering is if performance is worth the price tag. I've seen some posts in my past browsing that claimed headphone 'A' is either: a) a huge steal, b) worth it but if you have extra cash go for headphone 'B', or c) totally overpriced. I certainly...- fumobs

Memorial Day "Make an Offer" Sale
I gave it a try on the Westone UM 30 Clear today. It shows a retail of $399...tried $299 and it was accepted. Is that a good deal? Or...the better question, is 25% a good deal? Also, I thought I could try three times on one item? After only one try, I'm now getting the message to come...- fumobs

Reply to review by 'fumobs' on item 'Sennheiser HD530 '
If I may offer a simple suggestion: it would be a good idea to not take shots at a crowd for their preferences, or straight-out trash-talk the products. Some of your choice words are uncalled for, are a useless statement, and do nothing to benefit you or your review in light of the readers. ...- fumobs

FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread
Hmm! I like what I'm hearing (with regards to explanation)! I always like better controlled bass these days. I've been such a huge fan of the rubber tips, but I guess if it means a more enjoyable sound I can learn to live with foams. I've liked the Comply foam tips so far, but I'll...- fumobs

Reply to review by 'fumobs' on item 'OPPO PM-3'
Wow. Only $400? I'm getting tired of my Fidelio X1's and have been thinking about planar HP's...but I really like having a wide sound stage so I guess I'll have to hold back on these. But very nice, thank you for your review. And they're white--very pretty!- fumobs

FIDUE A83 impressions and discussion thread
Hm?? I'm confused. :O I've been under the impression that foam tips add more bass...but no? Or is there something about the Monster foam tips? And those foam tips are advertised as more bass (and clarity...but I can't quite figured out how adding more bass adds more clarity, unless they...- fumobs

I see. Glad to hear Fidue's on it! I couldn't find a contact info (email or #) for ProStudio...seems like they defer everything to Amazon unless your message is an invoice request or a thank you note. In chatting with Amazon, they've recommended I just do a return-for-refund and...- fumobs

Hello, all! I recently bought these about three weeks ago. I am certainly enjoying them...not quite what I was initially looking for, but once I did away with my expectations, I ended up enjoying them for what they offer. I've mainly keep them at work connected to a Fiio E17 since this is the...- fumobs

Oowah! I've been looking to invest in some good IEMs for portable--I've been on over-ears this whole time. Based on the reviews, the Alfa Genus looks like a nice candidate...but your website shows two tuning filters while the reviewers are going through three?- fumobs

I have minimum gaming experience with it...but the little I did use it for, it was amazing so take it for what you will. I had a few of those moments where I heard a sound and thought it came from somewhere in the room rather than the headphones...but that also happened with music-listening...- fumobs

Reply to review by 'fumobs' on item 'Studio V Anniversary Edition'
I've been eyeballing the X5, actually! I was initially looking at the Colorfly C4...I think you wrote a review on it? Anyway, a review I read got me goin' until I saw the price. Still doing some research, but right now it looks like i'm between the X5 and an iPod Nano or Classic. I'll take...- fumobs

Reply to review by 'fumobs' on item 'Studio V Anniversary Edition'
I'm actually looking to replace my iPod Nano (finally breaking down on me) and since I started getting into the audiophile world a few months ago, I figured I could try giving non-Apple products a shot. With that said, I feel similar to dcfac73. I personally am looking for something very user...- fumobs

[New] Philips Fidelio X1
I am lovin' the X1 with my Fiio E17 out of my laptop...but I keep getting this feeling that there is something still missing. If I could have the X1 but with more presence on the mids, that would be my next headphone...does such a thing exist??? I've also been eyeballing HD600 and HE-400...- fumobs

@ bizkit, Ooh~modding. I hope it comes out well! Too newbish (and afraid in general) to do anything to mine...maybe when I find a new primary HP, i'll take a stab at it then. Questions: 1. Why are you changing the jack input i. e. what benefits are you looking for? 2. What...- fumobs
