    Free Apos Flow Headphone Cables With Most Headphones Over $400 on Apos

    Hi, me again. I suppose you are doing this to either attract business or you have a surplus supply of the cables. Maybe, maybe not. What I really would like is to use that cable as a credit against the purchase price of the headphones. I pay an additional 13-15% for Taxes on top of the U.S. to...

    Hi. So I am finally thinking of purchasing the Apos Headphones -I don't need them but I like the reviews I have seen and it has my preferred sound signature if you can call it that - thick smooth with good bass extension and slam. So I was playing around on your site trying to figure out how...

    Leather pads for HD650?

    Glad it helped. Now you are going to kill me. I went back to the Velour pads - I can't remember why but I think it had something to do with the amp I was using and I liked the feel.   Regards,   Ross

    Well-reviewed Fostex TH-500RP planar magnetics now on sale for $329

    Well I tried what I had on hand - the ALO Audio MK3+ made them sound stunning, but then so did the ALO National on High gain. They also sounded great with a Burson Soloist SL - who knew  and that is my favourite amp for the Sennheiser HD650's.   The JDS Labs C5 or the Cayin C5 with the Bass...

    Well-reviewed Fostex TH-500RP planar magnetics now on sale for $329

    I agree with 'Major" Tom. Me, well I am ground control.......... what else.   I took the opportunity to buy these blind - no listening - just a few small reviews. They do sound like grainless HD650's which I love.   My favourite headphone remains the MrSpeakers Alpha Fog but that's just the...

    Well-reviewed Fostex TH-500RP planar magnetics now on sale for $329

    Well, leave it to Major Tom, the one in this thread to pique my appetite to go and buy these Fostex TH500RP's. I mean I have the MrSpeaker's Fostex mod in the form of the Alpha Dogs and they are my favourite headphones equivalent to my LCD2's.   The price even in Canadian Pesos was worth the...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    I find the LCD2's uncomfortable - that's the sole reason  and too heavy - but I believe with two purchases last week, the new Audeze Carbon Fibre Headband or the Suspension band I bought from a member I will alleviate that problem.   One other thing - On my Alpha Dogs I opened the little slots...

    I too own the 650's - my last purchase actually and a few others. I also have the LCD2 Fazors and a few others.   My go to Headphone is there Mr. Speakers Alpha Dog - no real need for the Prime - too expensive for what it brings to the table - very open sounding!   Here are some suggestions...

    I agree in that we are ALL entitled to our opinions and in the face of hard evidence to contrary they are valid opinions!   So your opinion counts just as mine does and anyone else's.   My only question is - where is the hard factual evidence? Do you have some personal experience that leads...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    You are quite right - the 560's and the 500's share very little of anything. That's why I didn't buy the 560's.   I did buy the 650's some time ago and the HE-400i (I traded in the 560's - didn't like them at all - I liked the 500's though) which while a nice planar and a bit like a really...

    Bingo - best idea of the day and you won't look like a geek.   I mean really - has anyone put their headphones on and then looked in a mirror?   I did and my wife saw me and asked if I was taking a trip to Mars in the near future!   At which point I crammed my Audeze LCD2's on her head and...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Well said.   Its all in the ears and brain (apparently they are connected) of the listener.   I live in a small city in Canada where an Audio firm called Bryston is based.   Been buying Bryston gear for a very long time - this decades.   Now I can hear a difference between their gear and...

    Spec wise that may well be true but I am one of those contrary fellows who doesn't believe everything he reads or is told :-)   But that's just me.   I have neither the time nor the inclincation to get into that level of detail and ensuing expense.   And sometimes I DO wonder - who wrote the...

    I did the cannibalizing thing with the HM5 pads - nice change and more comfortable. Easy to do. I didin't bother to glue them together I put one in the HM5 pads an then the one that is the clip in part second - worked like a charm, and sounds great - better bass.   A desktop amp that is...

    Leather pads for HD650?

    Like so many members I always wondered about pleather or leather but more likely pleather pads for the HD650's (same thing for 600's).   Well I recently ordered new pads for my 650's and thought to myself - why not cannibalize the old ones for the two plastic rings (there are two and you need...

    Reply to review by 'muchtooloud' on item 'Philips Fidelio X2'

    I too own these headphones and LOVED them right out of the box.   This is an Excellent review, really good and thoughtful.   I own a pair of Grado PS500's (I prefer the X2's), a pair of Hifiman HE-300's (I prefer the X2's) and a pit of Hifiman HE-400i's which I like only a tad more.   For me...

    Review by 'muchtooloud' on item 'Tralucent Audio T1 Portable Amplifier'

    I joined this site specifically to round out my collection (why I don't know) of Headphone Amps sans DAC's. I have had the Amp/Dac combo's and I use an iPod Classic and I still don't hear the benefit or an expensive DAC. I own a couple of higher end Stereo systems and know good sound in the...
