    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Sorry to hear that. Despite the connectors can rotate on my cable when the nut is tightened fully, I have no connection issues so far. One side is a bit easier to rotate than the other, however no changes in connection quality to be observed. I hope for you that it gets resolved soon, I would...

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Sorry that the reply took a bit longer. Here it goes. I had a copper cable on my HE-400i before because of the very short and stiff stock cable. Compared to the copper cable, it sound more lively without sounding harsh at the top end. It brings back some sparkle at the high frequencies which I...

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I almost forgot about it, however this weekend an envelope from the UK was delivered to my door...   Toxic Cables sticker on the back...      Gorgeous looking cable, very very nicely made. The Hifiman connectors got me scared for a second, as they can rotate while mounted firmly, I've...

    Official X5 2nd gen beta firmware download and discussion thread--version 1.27: library search function, replaygain, filter options

    I bought the X5ii two weeks back. So far, it's been a great player to listen to and use. My colleagues call it "The iPod on steriods", and it for sure is one. Even the AKG K501 plays decently on it in high gain mode.   Flashed it to 1.27b just today, hoping some minor issues I encountered...

    Reply to review by 'avdb' on item 'Bose QuietComfort 25 Headphones'

    Very good review and having them for a couple of months now, I fully agree. In my case, of course the Hifiman 400i is a better headphone when you are in a quiet place at home. When in the office or on travel however, these things allow you to take your listening pleasure with you. Comfort and...

    Frank, the site looks great and I like how you now can configure the cables. Great step forward indeed and it will save you quite some email traffic I assume. I'm looking forward to see your reply as you work your way trough the pile of emails.

    ROOM's Headphone Stands

    Anyone having this stand that uses it with a Hifiman 400i or one of the other Hifiman headphones with the 'new' headband design? I was wondering if the headrest might be to wide for the headphone to sit on it without streching the headband and if the stand is high enough to let the wires out...

    Inexpensive Replacement cable for new HiFiMan HE-400i?

      I'm sure Matthew from Forza can make a version with the new connectors for HifiMan, as he has some more expensive cable with those connectors.   I've a color series cable for the 400i (with old connectors) and it's a really well made, flexible cable. The sound signature is what you would...
