That's easier than I expected.. Have a Classic myself, s160 with rockbox. Also got a Fiio X3ii for portable so that will at least suffice. Haven't had time to read the whole thread yet. Does the pads hold up good/perfectly? :) Page back I saw people talking replacements, because of modding or...

Since everyone keeps saying z7 are easy to drive, does than incline a iPhone would give it "higher" volumes? Unfortunately I have never got to try them, but I have been wondering how they would do as a gaming headset. Do you think these would get sufficient volumes straight out of the PS4...

I'm looking for a smaller headphone amp+dac with optical in that has the power supply built in, preferably a 3 pin power cable, but grounding is ofc not a must (I just have A LOT of 3 pin power cables..) I just dislike the external power and makes cable management hard for the place I'm planing...

If the lawton pads are to big for the ring, find a 3d printer and make some rings that are wider! Any University would sure have it these days. I wish the D7200 came with a short 3.5 cable, and denon obviously need to make loads of replacement pad-rings because looking at it is not a matter of...

That was immensely disappointing..... Edit: Read it now and yes, that's what it said, quite pisses me off because I knew how perfect they would be after some months if it was real leather.. But technology does grow each year and if they have developed a new method resulted in a soft yet tougher...

What is the price on those Dekoni pads? Genuine leather win every time in my book. Had no idea memory foam had bad acoustic properties tho..? Do you have links to any tests of it, would like to look further into that! Memory foam doesn't stay original for long depending on the foam used though...

Denon writes Sheepskin leather, thats very good. Synthetic leather on the earpads, so dont put any leather oil or whatever on them. Effects mink oil would give on the headband could be even more snug fit so you might go from say 5-4 on the size adjustment, (after time) alot of padding behind...

That headband is supposed to be real leather, can you confirm? I will have it tested hopefully this week and I truly hope it is leather, one of just some natural materials that have the characteristics of shaping after you. Like Brooks bike saddles, leather shoes, and headbands. If it is to...

My brain gets a little grainy for a while after st Patrick's day too.. that's why I own excellent speakers, and very good headphones.

Thats like asking where the secret apocalyptic bunker is, and all the anti laughing pills ( because wouldn't want them aliens thinking you're mental) Better off googling for a heaphone guru, or anything else.

So my NAD D7050 just went retard after I stupidly decided to update to the 1.66fw... I Turn it on and then it decides to start a never ending cycle with off and on. Fyi, Anyone have a 220v older fw? Anyways wondering about getting the Denon pma-50 and a pair of 7200's, since the pma-50 has the...

Take the MDR-1a

Forgot to ask this question.. and feel very stupid now because after downloading 400 different album art's for 400 albums.. only puting the jpg file named cover in the folders.. Anyway: Does the FiiO x3ii load album art named "cover" from jpg in the album folder?..           On a...

sry for the doubble post (in case of quote)   edit:     I actually unscrewed the 4xT5 torx, and carefully removed the assembly "plate" holding the driver. Used a plastic disassembly pryer, and carefully went around the Assembly "plate" for the driver. was very little adhesive, came loose...

Well trying to explain is not easy with my non native english lol.. If I cover the cup with my hand and pushing air inwards toward the driver, the airpressure pushes the membrane to bottom out on the magnet (or something else) Gives of a "sticky/cluncky" sound. It's not the cups as I removed...

Would the tr80/80 work good with portable player like a FiiO X5ii or X3ii? Well enough constructed to survive a drop, and easy enough to drive? I just love the look of these :cool: Was thinking about getting a pair of ath-50x <--- Joke lol, forgot to edit xD

Not the cups actually, but the "Membrane/drivers/speakers/elements" sound is still tere when i take of the cups and palm the cup pushing carefuly.. "Clunk clunk" Feels like they seal so good over my ears that the "speakers" actually get moved by tha vaccume...? heard that? lol

Got them today :D spent a couple of hours listening, and i have to say I like this sound, these are really perfect for heavy and EDM! Very pleasant indeed!. Machine Head - Buldozer.. Infected Mushroom - Noise Maker. Pantera - A new level... Metallica - Bad seed. ToveLo - Stay High, hippisabbo...

Thank you for all your oppinions! Then I will probably go for the x3ii. It is replacing an iPod Classic 7g/160 with rockbox that i have been using or the past years mostly with koss porta pro lol (and ah-d2000 before they broke..) Rockbox made the Pod actually worth using tho, what a great...

Really! are we talking 200H? How does it sound with the fft filters in place now?

Please guys I need an honest opinion from you all. In short: X3ii or X5ii ??   Was more or less dead set on the x5ii, but leaning towards better battery runtime? and more affordable device.   Will actually be using it almost exlusively with Marshall Monitor's and Ath-50's, and probably only...

Glad we got that out of the way :] How is the sound? XD just a joke, i'm pretty sure i know already and I haven't tried them. I am lookin forward to them breakin in, at lest the headband.

I also forgot to ask! Is it possible to charge the x5ii while listening? I would rather have a 5-10.000mah batterypack on the back of the player to get longer listening and to save the players battery while on the go!?

@FiiO  Instead of launching a X5v3 this year why not update the firmware to v4.9 and when the community is happy with the performance stop at v5.0C. (Community approved) :P And I must say the x5ii in black looks VERY good, with that blue light on the side! really stylish.   Big reason for me...

Great! Yeah those replacable earpads are some of the reason i decided on tese. And attached by magnets, that's just fkin Genius! I have imagined magnets for the cups so many times replacing pads that did'nt have it, and i hit the order button when i saw it lol. Also, are the phones as well built...
