I want something more permanent, considering all the different headphones and sources I use, some (but not all) of my sources have parametric EQ but it's inconvenient switching for every headphone I use.

Nobody? No advice on where or what foam to buy or use? Maybe grill cloth?

I'm a big fan of the MDR-1R, especially the comfort, but the sound quality out of the box isn't too my liking. There's midrange coloration and the peak at 10kHz is a nuisance, I followed the blog information here with full measurements of the results:  ...

I'd like to know the same thing, what sealed headphones are a good pairing for a tube amp. Please someone with knowledge of the subject chime in!

Nothing?

Is there any benefit from a sound quality perspective to running the output of my dragonfly into a Fiio E11 amp? How do they compare? Should I just sell the E11?

Nobody can help with this?

Hi, does the cable from the Sennheiser Momentum or Momentum on ear work on the Sennheiser Urbanite? If I were to try to use the Momentum cables would they function but simply not lock in the Urbanite ear cup? Thanks!

a 4' cable? You going to try to use these things as portables? After reading Tyll's measurements of 9db broadband isolation I dreamed of doing such a thing as well :)

But then granted, the K701/Q701 never made the Inner Fidelity wall... So I guess... there.

I would assume Tyll removed the HD650 from his "wall of fame" for a reason... :)

Anybody here used 750dj pads on the k181? Any thoughts? Thanks,

I've got a pair of these coming tomorrow, I can't wait to make comparisons as well however I CAN'T imagine I will prefer them to the Sennheiser Momentum. That opinion seems very unbiased.

Really? I wouldn't have thought so much as Tyll's measurements on Inner Fidelity show a improvement of 5db broadband. According to measurements, the X2 isolates MORE than the Fidelio L2!!!

Prefer focal over what?

How is the X2 treating you? I'd really love one but I don't know if i can justify the costs... How good is the isolation?

The trend appears to be going for fewer and fewer, maybe that's a sign that I need to get rid of some :)

Is there any induced microphonic noise through the trim pieces of these headphones? I've noticed this is a terrible problem with the Harman BT headphones, I wondered if the same situation exists here. Thanks,

Greetings everyone, just wanted to say hi! Any quick recs for a introductory tube amp? Thank you!

That is a very elaborate dissection of the hobby! Much appreciated!

Judging from the pole, the more the merrier!    I saw mention of the Fidelio L2, I'm strongly considering upgrading my Fidelio L1 to the L2, any thoughts on doing so? Thanks,

I'm not a huge IEM fan, mainly a full size guy...

Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum, but currently stand at 18 pairs, is that too much?  Luckily they're all cheapies. I hope to broaden my tastes here now!
