Quote: I understand.  But you can confirm that the 650 leather pads do fit on the 750's?  I just want to make absolute sure before I buy them.

Quote: Have you tried the 650 pads on the 750's?  does it change the sound dramatically?

I know Ultrasone makes faux leather pads for pro650, I'm wondering if these are usable on the 750, or if there are any leather or faux leather  pads that fit the 750? 650 pads...

Great, thanks!

My UM1's are sounding dull again due to ear wax reaching the filter..   Last time I sent them to Westone to be replaced however this time I would like to try it myself.   I read that the filters are interchangable between differnet IEMs Etymotic Westone etc...

Using headphones can easily damage your hearing however it can be safe as well--if one is aware of some things:   --Ambient noise and its masking effects will cause us to raise the volume of headphones to compensate.   An anechoic chamber is not silent--has an ambient noise level of...

I see on the headphone.com site the Ultrasone Edition 8 has 20db isolation which is pretty good.  I currently have the Pro 750's but they are not very isolated for a closed can.  Is the Pro 900 better?  Anybody know what the isolation spec for the edition 9 is?  Are there any other phones that...

Ultrasone makes the claim that the S-logic thingy increases apparent loudness while not actually raising the SPL.  Do you find this to be the case?   Are there other headphones (any type) that display this same characteristic?   I know that smiley face EQ curve will increase apparent...

I've decided to go closed back, after having used Senn HD-580's and Westone UM1 IEM's for the past few years.  Reason is isolation, which is important, and the forward bass that closed back tend to have over open.   I want balanced presentation with perhaps a bit forward bass, as I produce...

Do these rest on the ear or around the ear?  thanks.

will be there!

Great, will see you all at the meet!

Hi everyone, is there anywhere in NYC I can audition these two fine headphones? Right now I have Senn HD580 and I'm looking to upgrade...

I'm on a mac, and the crossfeed plugs i have tried degrade the audio quality. Standalone crossfeed unit is my only option i guess.. or just skip the electrostats and go for dynamics with a nice amp w/ crossfeed.

Thanks. So there are no electrostat amps with crossfeed? I already have a DAC.

I'm thinking of trying the Stax Omega or 4040, wondering what amps I can use that have crossfeed control?

Thanks I actually have the 7506's; they were my 1st 'good' headphone, though I'm not too fond of their sound. I'm leaning towards the RP21's though I'm skeptical given their price. Only way to know is to try, I guess. btw Midnight Marauders=One of my all time favs.

I need a truly mobile (battery or usb powered) AD/DAC for my Macbook Pro. I'll be driving a pair of Equation RP21's and Senn580's. The quality of the mic pres doesn't matter (just for recording rough ideas) but I'd like to have a nice sounding dac and headphone amp. Any suggestions...

Looks like the RP21's are good for my application. Beer money is a plus too! They sure are ugly though. Might have to break out the paint can. If anybody is selling a used pair please PM me...

I need a pair of closed phones for mixing music on the go. I'll be eqing tracks on the laptop so flattest frequency response possible is critical so I can get a mix that will translate well to other systems. I'm not looking for the 'best soundning' phones but rather the most accurate. I've...

There are several versions of this AKG headphone: K240S K240 55 ohm K240 600 ohm k240m k240df k240 sextett more? I am just trying to familiarize myself with the headphones. Could someone please inform me which is the best for studio monitoring? I will be using them for...
