JDS Labs Element
I was actually curious of the same thing. Deciding on either a Mangi, or spending some extra cash and going either JDS or Bottlehead- mauricejohnson

Does Amazon ban for excessive returns?
I don't have any numbers for you, but when I worked in my company's office I would constantly ship things there and take full use of their free return policy (mostly with ill fitting clothing). I returned so many things that the UPS guy once saw a package with my name on it and said to our...- mauricejohnson

Head-Fi Basshead IEM thread (lists page 1)
It's been brought up a few times but I gotta reiterate how perfect Yamaha's EPH-100 is for a basshead. It's got kick, solid musical separation and clear mids and distinct but not piercing highs. A buddy recommended these after I asked for an IEM version of the V-Moda M100 and I've been in love...- mauricejohnson

Philips Fidelio X2?!
I don't have the X2's but I'd spent some time researching them as my next pair of headphones from the M100 for the same discomfort reasons you cited. My understanding is that the sonic changes are overblown between the woox and gibson pads (their official statement said they tested the sound...- mauricejohnson

Sennheiser x Massdrop HD6XX Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
Damn. I may just buy them but have something like the Fiio e10k sitting in my amazon cart and play it by ear. Thanks for the response. Yeah, the 16ohm version went down to $130 for a week or so. I'm kinda regretting not jumping on it. My main hesitation with them was the fixed wire...- mauricejohnson

Sennheiser x Massdrop HD6XX Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
I've been waiting for a good sale on the 32 Ohm DT990 or DT770s because I'm not wanting to buy an amp. If I'm running these from my receiver (Denon 1913) would they be fine?- mauricejohnson

One more as an addendum to that last Otis Redding post. I just can't imagine how bonkers seeing this live would have been:- mauricejohnson

Songs that make us bust a move!
Loving all styles of music, I found that this sort of thing the unifying quality that would get me to go to any concert. You call it bust a move music, I call it get up and go music, but it's all the same. Nuts and bolts Rock and Roll Old School with a fresh coat of paint And...- mauricejohnson

Which headphones do you use for PC gaming?
What was your conclusion? I'm looking to switch from my V-moda M100s to something more comfortable and I was in love with the comfort of my old Sennheisers, but the X2s are probably closer to my preferred sound signature- mauricejohnson

Sub $150 Headset for Gaming?
I have the PLYR2's and quite like them. The main reason for the poor reviews are the ear cup screws breaking easily. Due to the design of the headphones, the area that the headphones are fastened gets pressure anytime you take off or put on the headphones. Even if you're careful, this area will...- mauricejohnson

V-MODA M-100: Discussion/Feedback, Reviews, Pics, etc.
Can anybody recommend a similar sounding pair of cans (open or closed) that has velour pads? I love everything about these except the heat that the pads bring my ears. I'd like to get the X2s, but I'm hoping to keep things below $200. Gonna connect it to my receiver or my phone, unamped.- mauricejohnson

Yamaha EPH-100
Finally got them in and clocked in a couple dozen hours. For reference, I was looking for a sub-100 dollar IEM with a similar sound signature to my V-Moda M100s. Coming from the Klipsch Image S4's is like night and day. The V-Moda's ruined those for me basically. I'd put them on only to...- mauricejohnson

Yamaha EPH-100
Hey, I was hoping you may be able to help me out. I purchased a pair of the Yamaha's from your site on 8/8 and have yet to receive it. Tracking shows it's still being processed, but it's shown that same status ever since I got the tracking information. I've been in sporadic contact with your...- mauricejohnson

V-MODA M-100: Discussion/Feedback, Reviews, Pics, etc.
Any recommendations on specific EQ settings for gaming? I don't want a neutral sound, but my understanding is that the bass is a bit much, and the mids slightly recessed, so I'd like to balance that out a bit towards a larger soundstage that's more appropriate for video games. After scanning...- mauricejohnson
