    DUNU DK-2001 - 3 BA + 1 beryllium DD hybrid: the long-awaited follow-up to the DN-2000 and DN-2000J!

    Can anyone tell me if the DK series can be worn with cable straight down, or would the body stick out too much?

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    Can anyone tell me if you can wear this wires straight down style, and if you could do so with the A&K beyer based iems or is it really only fittable over-ear?

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Awesome reply thanks. Actually after I posted I stumbled on you're god tier list thread which has many useful links overall as well. The yincraw look oddly comfortable although I am bit hesitant towards large metal buds as I suspect they would tend to annoy me after a while (hence my initial...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Hey, new to this thread but happy I found it. Due to health and neck problems and have been forced to give up on regular cans. Unfortunately, I have small ears that seem to resist IEMs and I'm not a fan of etymotic's fit. All that's fine by me because I've always loved earbuds. I'm on the hunt...

    Static/Fuzz with Chord Mojo

    Hey, I recently got a Mojo off Amazon. I have found it has static that is audible with low volumes, and increases with loudness to the point it is eventually drowned out. It's very noticeable during the quiet part of songs, and the intros, and is very distracting. With no volume their is no...

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    I had the p9 for 2 months, but did return it. The aeon is lighter, fights better with a looser clamp, and has far more comfortable cushions. B&W's earpads have never worked for me. If I remember correctly, the P9 has a little bit more in the sub bass and mid bass, but didn't have a coherent...

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    Hey, I'm admittedly awful at the technical side of this stuff (impedance and such), so I need help finding an AMP for this HP. Trying to spend under $500-400, with a neutral or slightly warm tilt. Would the JDS Labs El Amp/El DAC work well with this headphone?

    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a shorter cable than the stock one - it takes over my desk lol!. It must be 9 feet long, 3-4 would be more than enough for me at my desk. I don't have a balanced amp, just a Fulla 2( all I can afford for now), but I can terminate in 1/4" or 3.5mm. Not...

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    Best treble I've ever heard. Maybe best vocals as well.

    I think that would defeat the purpose of what mrspeakers is trying to do with this headphone.

    PM-3 vs 99 Classics vs Wireless P7s

    I've heard the p7 and pm3. The meze 99 stands out - some people like, but some people don't. But, it defintiely says, look at these expensive headphones.   There are others in this price range, too - the AT msr7, the new AT sr9, denon mm-40, sony mdr-1a and mdr-1abt(wireless) and the master...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    I''m probably mixing up and misinterpreting stuff, I'm new to this and learning as I go. I was kinda going off my ears and this thread - ">Note bass is pushed down about 3-4db". I'm definitely sensitive to treble, the towel isn't ideal but I'm guessing its 3-4dbs reduction after 4-5k hz and not...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    The Focus A Pads are about the same size as the mdr-z7's width. I removed their plastic holder so it was just the pads, and put them on instead of the Z7's pads and holder. I just let them headphone's clamp hold them in place so I could see if there was difference. It was quite easy, they didn't...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    I wanted to share how I ended up getting my z7s to a really great place for me personally.   I was having problems with the upper mids and treble range after the surgical tape mod so I tried some bounty paper towel filters in front of the driver and voila they are a dream for me now. I also...

    Best Treble reducing material?

    I'm actually looking to reduce the upper upper mids, like 1.5-4k, so if anyone knows good materials or mods to do that (mdr-z7), I'd be indebted.

    Best Treble reducing material?

    Hi,   I was reading this article at Innerfidelity, http://www.innerfidelity.com/content/reducing-headphone-treble-response-paper-filters-front-driver#VOJ6iPW4DqksG21p.97 , where Tyll talks about using surgical masks to reduce frequencies greater than 5k.   Since I'm not really clear what...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    Good luck with the mod. I tried the surgical tape with the Focus A pads. It really brings the vocals forward, which have been a problem spot for me so far. However, they also bring the whole upper mid range forward, which can make many songs grating. Especially problematic if you want to listen...

    Sony MDR-Z7 Upgrades and Mods Thread

    Damn! Sub bass. I will admit I was skeptical that the surgical tape mod would add tangible sub bass to this HP, but it totally does and I love it! Mid-bass is still nice and strong, too, just not quite as strong as before.

    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    Aha, so the drivers are intentionally angled backwards?! Interesting.

    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    I genuinely think I got backwards headphones. Just to be clear, left side should be slanted fowards towards the front of my body. But the driver mount can't even fit in that way. There's a piece that sticks up and blocks it
