    Repurposing an old Android phone as a dedicated source

    I just bought a $29.00 Tracfone at Dollar General to use as a music player. I bought one a few years ago and it works fine but it had a micro usb port as opposed to a type c port. I couldn't find a dongle dac that was micro usb so I was stuck with the headphone jack on the phone or Bluetooth. It...

    Sennheiser HD 569

    I recently bought a used set of Sony MDR 7506's. The stock pads were not for me but after swapping them out for some deep aftermarket pads I couldn't be happier. I would sell the 569's but I feel kinda bad passing on my problems to the next guy.

    Sony MDR-7506

    This is my first time hearing about the ZX's. I had to look them up. I might have to try some of those. For $10.00 you can't get hurt to bad. I am really enjoying these 7506's right now though.

    Sony MDR-7506

    I realize that I am kind of late to the thread but I just bought a used set of 7506's and am very impressed also. I have never heard any really expensive headphones but I do own some Hifiman 4XX's, AKG K240's, and K702's. I needed some closed back headphones to block out my wife's tv shows. I...

    K701 thread

    I bought some k702's very reasonable a while back that were shorted out on the right side. It took about twenty minutes to fix and has become my favorite set of headphones. Are the 701's the same thing without the removal cable?

    Sennheiser HD 569

    I hate to say it but it seems like the more I listen to these headphones, the less I like them. They are just fatiquing to me. I have been considering trying the dt770's or k361's. You might like them better than me though. My hearing isn't that good so what works best for me might be terrible...

    For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?

    I bought these AKG K-702's cheap because they were shorted out on one side. I fixed them and can't bring myself to listen to anything else now. Great headphones!

    re-coating ear pads

    You might try some water proofing stuff like used on tents. It should work on cloth but bare foam might be tricky.

    Sennheiser HD 569

    After doing some research, I have come to the conclusion that these are basically the same as HD 598cs headphones with a few minor differences. Any thoughts on those?

    Sennheiser HD 569

    I needed some closed back headphones because my HE 4XX's don't block out my wife's tv shows. I was considering several other phones when I came across the HD 169's for just $65.00. They look like the rest of the 500 series but there isn't a lot of information on them out there. They can easily...

    Tital though Bluetooth headphones

    I just started my free 30 day trial subscription with Tital. I will be using it almost exclusively with my kindle fire and Bluetooth headphones. My question is, is there any advantage to paying for the higher priced hifi plan with my setup? I will also use it occasionally with the kindle hooked...

    Realistic SA-10 headphone amp?

    I was just wondering how this amp would work as a headphone amp. It doesn't have a headphone jack but the speakers are connected with rca plugs into rca jacks on the back of the amp. It is rated at 1.2 watts at 1000 Hz with 10% distortion. I read that it puts out .75 watts per channel with very...

    Bluetooth IEM recommendations

    My wife is looking to buy a set of wireless in ear monitors for use at work in an office. The don't need a microphone and would prefer a neutral sound stage. She tried my Samson SR850's and was happy with the sound but don't want full size over the ear phones. She can spend up to $150.00 but...

    Show us your Head-Fi station at it's current state. No old pictures please...

    I have just had the turntable for a week or so but I like it. The automatic functions are not working and I need to tear into it and see if I can get it all working like it should. I put a new stylus and belt on it and have just been using it manually for now. I am completely satisfied with it's...

    I have just about completed my vintage Radio Shack system. I have a Realistic Lab-290 turntable, an SA-150 integrated amp, a TM-102 am/fm tuner, and Minimus 7 speakers. The headphones are Samson SR850's. It was all made for Radio Shack back in my high school days except for the headphones. They...

    Vintage Radio Shack headphones

    I have been putting together a vintage Realistic bookshelf stereo system with a SA-150 integrated amp, Minimus 7 speakers, and a Lab-290 turntable. The only component that doesn't fit the early 80's Radio Shack theme is my headphones. I know that Radio Shack had to have had some decent...

    Realistic SA -150 amp and Samson SR850 headphones. Probably the cheapest set-up on the thread. It doesn't sound bad though.
