That is my aim. I did need some kind of reference point prior to modding. But I think now I have a fair idea of things, I think I will start working with what we have.

Wow.... I have spend a while to catch up with this thread.   I think all the points mentioned here are very much like what I had going in my head. You guys also give me something to look into and think to divert me from purchasing.   Personally my issues is that the joy and pleasure I get...

Hi There   Just got a quick question regarding which part of the headphone diaphragm does what and why it is shaped the way it is. Also I am trying to find out which part of the headphone diaphragm produce what frequency? I checked many site and it all explains how the dynamic headphone driver...

  Thank you Redcarmoose. I think all you posts are informative and a great guidance. I have not visited this site to reply, due to all those headphone been advertised on the side on those pages always triggered a urge to look about to see what is out there. But you are right that there are no...

    Thank you for your input. I think I understand my problem a bit better now. I went into headphones without having a goal or idea of what I am looking for. My first pair of 100+ headphone was an sennheiser amperior, from there I went to full size over ears, than to open. So over those time...

  I totally agree. I have just been testing headphones for the sake for testing headphone. I am going through my music collection now and I discovered there are so many tracks I have not yet tried with my current collection of headphone. I think I got too caught up with the whole perfect, low...

For the past month or so, I have came to realize that I might need to stop the quest for better audio or headphones in my case. So I have put a stop on acquiring more headphones or audio equipment. I was wondering if anyone else also have put a stop on getting more audio equipment, because it...

  I think you are right, it is track related. I did not notice the same noise on other tracks.

Ok.... I think I know what is wrong with the headphone....   I love all those detail in everything. But there is this high pitch that are on some music track background that is kind of bothering me. I checked with a few different sound source and it is the same. My guess would be there...

I have a pair in the house, but I can't form a opinion on them. I tested them a few times and do like them, but I find the sound to be quite different from what I am used to.   As far as I can tell all the details are there, but the way how the music is presented are different to what I am...

  =) They sure do... some what.... not sure about the sound though.   Still this is my first unofficial AKG headphone, still saving up for a proper pair.   Strange things about those headphones is the sound, they don't sound bad, they just pick up the highs really well and lacking most of...

Thanks hrklg01 for the information.   I came across those on ebay, I was looking for something cheap and unique to play about with. Those was £15 + £5 P&P. Which is not bad for £2 per unit. I bought them to mod them, as I started to be very interested on modding the housing on headphone to...

Lol, you guys don't trust me...   I don't blame you as I can not find any information about them either, that's why I posted here for help.   Those seems to be pretty hard to drive was my Fiio X1 need to be at least 50% volume to make it loud enough to listen.   Ok here's the picture I...

Just a quick question does anyone know anything regarding AKG K2000? I don't think it's related to the K1000. I just want to know as I just bought a box of 10 AKG K2000, which seems to be single ear earphones.   AKG link: http://www.akg.com/pro/p/k2000   More Picture...
