Hi folks.   At the moment I own one pair of beyerdynamic T1, Sennheiser HD800, Sennheiser Orpheus [incl. amplifier] and Stax SR-009 (together with SRM-727 II). [And some other cheaper mid-fi phones like K701, HD650, DT880, SR325, etc.]   Also I've tried out some orthos like LCD-2 and...

Hello Head-Fiers,   for more than eight years I mostly read here on Head-Fi. Rarely I wrote something, because most things are already said, analysed, criticized, forgotten, said again, analysed again, etc. I like this place very much, even though it is sometimes confusing and always bad...

Hi folks, I'm really curious about what would be the highest serial number of a pair of Sennheiser's HD800 here on Head-Fi. The highest S/N should be over 7xxx according to Sennheiser. Is someone here with a higher S/N by now? (8xxx or more?) Or has someone seen a higher S/N somewhere...

I think this question has been already discussed, but as far as I've read about it, there is no clear explanation for the fact, that one K701 has less bass while another one has a huge amount of it (for an open headphone). At the moment, I've got three different K701s. (Yeah, that's crazy, I...

While reading so much about headphones, it becomes clear to me that the (Old) "Big Three" [AKG K701, Beyerdynamic DT880 and Sennheiser HD650] seem to have three new popular high-quality successors: - Beyerdynamic T1 - Denon AH-D7000 - Sennheiser HD800 Maybe I'm wrong and a little bit too...

Hi, yesterday I got an AD900 (Made in Japan) and compared it to my AD700 (Made in Taiwan). The AD900 clearly surpasses the AD700 in terms of clearness over the whole acoustic spectrum. The build quality of the AD900 seems to be better, but I wonder why the AD700 has a better cable. Maybe...

Hello citizens of Head-Filand, can someone tell me what kind of headphones these are?: "Lavender LA-900 Stereo Headphones" I've never heard about a manufacturer called "Lavender", nor do I know what the model LA-900 is. Some ideas? I bought those phones on ebay today...

Hi, at the moment I've got some headphones from different manufacturers (HD800, HD650, HD600, HD595, HD555, HD565, HD545, AH-D2000, AH-D7000, K701, K601, DT990 05, DT880 03, DT770 PRO and soon the T1) , but I never owned a pair of American cans. (I've already listened to the GS1000 and PS1...

Sorry, this is an egoistic thread, but I'm interested in some of your opinions. I've tried out some headphones (about 80), but I haven't found that ones I would name "ideal". For me, the ideal headphones should have the following characteristics (listening to a very good recording...

I'd like to know which headphones are louder using them directly connected with a CD player or mp3 player. These are the headphones which I would like you to compare: Sennheiser HD600 Sennheiser HD650 AKG K701 Beyerdynamic DT880 Edition 2005 Thanks for every answer

Hi. I've got a Sony NW-HD5 Atrac3 player. I only listen to classical music, so there is no need for me to buy any head-/earphones that have too much of bass. I'm really satisfied with the Sony MDR 931 LP earphones. The sound is warm and very pleasing to my ears. Connecting the...

Guten Tag, I'd like to buy a mp3-player to listen to my classical music when I'm not at home. Currently I can't decide between two models: the Samsung YP T7 with 1GB of flash memory and the Apple iPod nano with 4GB 99.9% of the music I use to listen to is classical music (from Bach...

Guten Tag! I've got a question: I already own the Sennheiser HD600. Now a local dealer has made some special price offers on some headphones. The HD590 and the HD595 are the most interesting ones for me. They are both under 100 € (95 € for the HD590 and 99 € for the HD595). Listening...

Good evening! Are there some detailed photos of the Sennheiser Orpheus (HE/HEV 90) existing showing the (upper) front and back or maybe more? I'd like to show the pictures to a Japanese friend, but I can't find really good ones. Thank you for your help Greetz Frank, Germany

Grüß Gott and Schnitzel ! Next on CNN: Schwarzenegger goes for President and I ask my question... The question is a theoretical one: How to connect a STAX SRM-007t Vacuum Tube Driver Unit Amplifier with an ACCUPHASE D-85 SACD/CD-Player? Let me explain a little bit: The amp...

Guten Tag! I've got the lightwight Sony CD-Walkman D-EJ2000 and I'm not very satisfied with the sound that comes out of the earphones coming with the player. Now I'm looking for some good earphones (good in sound and quality) that can satisfy me. Do you have any suggestions which...

Moin! (btw. Moin is the Northern-German word for Hello, Good Morning, Evening, Night... and the southern Servus or Grüß Gott) I would like to buy a wireless headphone that sounds pretty good for classical music that comes out of an Sony SACD-Player. It would be good if it sounds like...

What is the best amp for the Sennheiser HD-600 when you look at the cost/performance ratio? It (the cables and the amp) shouldn't cost more than 500 € / US-$, if possible. Furter: what is the best chinch-cable to connect it (there are so many firms and typs of chinch cables) at a...

I've decided to buy ONLY the Sen HD600 (for the moment?). BUT: My Sony SCD XB-940QS has a maximum output level of 10mW on the headphone jack at an load impedance of 32ohms. The Sennheiser HD-600 I want to buy has an nomial impedance of 300ohms and a power handling capability of 200mW...

Moin! I have made my choice, but I want your comments on it: 1. SACD-Player Sony SCD XB-940QS (I own) 2. Sennheiser HD 600 ~180 € 5. Oehlbach Chinch Set XXL1 ~139 € 4. Creek OBH-11 SE with OBH-2 power source ~ 380 € Do I need more? Better things for classical music? Please...

I'll make it short: If YOU were I (NO, no crazy all-day-eating 2m high Dr. Zoidberg ), I mean if you had to decide in my place WHAT WOULD YOU CHOOSE: criteria: 1. CD-Player: Sony SCD XB-940QS 2. Music: only Operas, Symphonies, "Military Music" and "Church-Music" !!! (everything before...

Hello! I'm new here and could need some help. I own a Sony SCD XB-940 SACD Player connected to NOTHING! *LOL* That's my problem! I'm not able to decide what headphones are the right one's because I really get confused by hearing all this opinions on headphones. I actually own a...
