Well, a few weeks in now and I'm loving them! Stopped using EQ with them, started using neutron music player and ordered an iBasso D Zero to use with them and my Galaxy S3. Can't wait for it to be delivered.. Great, comfy phones that are really good fun to listen to. Really happy with my purchase.

Scratch that, bought it and the sound quality is outstanding! I'm guessing that the d zero will bypass neutron's processing?

That's great, thank you. I tried Neutron a while back but couldn't get on with the UI, so I moved to PowerAmp. Might have another go with it though.   Thanks again!  

Hi ClieOS   Sorry, I wasn't being very clear - more going round in my head than I remembered to type out! I'm looking to use it with my Galaxy S3 primarily, maybe with my laptop every so often. But you're provided what I was after, and that was the part about the D Zero handling 16bit/48kHz...

Hi guys   About to pull the trigger on an iBasso D Zero - I had a look at the manufacturer's website and I can't see what FLAC files it would support - anyone able to point me in the right direction?  

Hey guys   I've got a Galaxy S3, international version, rooted, running Omega JB ROM with the latest Siyah kernel. I'm about to buy the E07K and want to connect it with USB to get the best out of it (I'm currently using an E6 via headphone jack and don't want to amp an already amped signal)...

Yeah, dependant on what I'm listening to, I have to exercise judicious use of EQ so that it doesn't get too overpowering. Although I've found that if I EQ with the ports closed first, they're then set just about right to give me non-punishing but still fun levels of bass.

No worries - she has to put up with a lot worse! I've found the bass ports pretty useful myself, after I set up an EQ, they just add a nice bit of colour. Lovely.

The best the wife could offer was "minimal". I tried with the ports open and closed and she said she couldn't really hear a difference in leakage. I can't comment on the other phones, but I'm very pleased with the build quality of my COP's, they seem very well made. Plus, pretty much all of it...

Morning   Well, I went ahead and ordered a pair and they arrived the other day. I haven't been able to spend a huge amount of time listening to them, but after a brief EQ on my player I think I can safely say I'm enjoying them! They're nice and light, very comfortable, with just the right...

Morning chaps.   Well, I went ahead and ordered the COP's and they arrived a day or so ago. Haven't had an enormous amount of time with them, but so far overall I like them. They're very comfortable (although I am considering the velour pads for reasons of sweatiness).   I've done a...

That's great, clear and informative. Thanks very much!  

Guys, just wanted to say thanks for the input. I'm pretty certain I'm gonna go for the COPS when I get the funds. Thought of a few things I might try (get a spare plate and attach a Bluetooth receiver to it to use occasionally etc), and to be fair, they've gotta be an improvement on what I've...

Thanks MichaelLaing, that's really helpful and the pics are awesome! Does the M80 cable sit securely in there, even without engaging with the locking mechanism? If you have chance, could you give me an idea of the diameter of the jack you've had success with? Is the retaining clip spring loaded...

Sorry, I meant that the replaceable cable was a marginal "plus" for the COP over the 770. It's not a huge consideration to be honest, but the flexibility of being able to use shorter/longer cables or add volume/phone control, mic cables etc sounded like it might give me more options for using...

Hi guys   Any confirmation on whether or not you can use non-Beyer cables with these cans? I'm sure I read somewhere on one of the threads that there's some sort of retaining clip that won't play nice with alternative cables...

Morning guys, and thanks for the responses. Would have replied last night but when I tried to log in on my phone the site wouldn't play nice..   Adamir - I'm mainly listening to rock/metal, but listen to a wide variety of other stuff including classical, rap/old skool hiphop, EDM etc. When I...

Ah, OK - makes sense. I'm an antisocial kind of guy (IRL) so I'd just put my change in the machine on the bus and avoid talking to the driver! . Casewise, I was thinking of one of those Slappa jobs - not quite a suitcase, but enough to protect them in my bag at work etc.   They seem to be...

Thanks to you both for the replies.   Would the E6 struggle to drive the DT770's (in either version)? I appreciate what you're both saying about portability and perhaps I'm being a little ambitious. For "true" portability I suppose I could fall back on my IEM's - In terms of portability for...

Hi guys   I'm in the market for some full sized cans, gonna treat myself for my birthday. I think I've decided on the DT770's over the M50's (as comfort is a major priority), but I'm not sure which variant to go for.   I'll be mainly using my Galaxy S3 for playback (and perhaps my...

Quote: Woohoo! Bought. It's actually an 8GB class 4 card (so even better). Should go well with my RE0's and E6 that are on the way (as my last set of RE0's went through the washing machine, survived, but then eventually succumbed to "broken right channel-itis"). If anyone has a clever way...

Agree completely with the guys here - try some decent IEMs and see how you get on. There's some good stuff in the For Sale/Trade section if you want to keep costs down. Most stock stuff (ipod earbuds etc) are pretty cheap and give bad sound in my limited experience.

So, Fang carefuly packaged my lovely RE0's, and sent them winging their way from Pudong airport. They arrived into my waiting arms, and I lovingly ripped the jiffy bag open, like a kid on xmas morning. I grabbed my newly purchased E5 and LOD, and put the little beauties to work. JOY! Crystal...

Any recommendations for a case for earbuds? Could do with one for the RE0's I have on order...

Hi theKraken11 Well, it certainly gives a much needed boost to the output of the ipod when driving the QC2's. I bought the QC2s in NYC on holiday a little over a year ago, and knew they were high impedance, so I bought the Boostaroo. It's got (apparently) some "HD" circuitry in it, which...
