Did changing pads or cables bring the vocals forward? I've had the v4s for a few days connected to a Modi/Magni. My only complaint would be with the vocals which seemed recessed.

Yes.  I was actually looking for the cord itself but I suppose that socket means it's a 3 prong with a generic power cord.  Thanks   Woops. I guess not all amps are the same.  Looking at the back of the SRM-252S I see this. I guess I'll just get a 3 prong transformer and be prepared for...

I need to buy a transformer for a Stax amp but for the life of me I can't find a picture of a power cord.  Does Stax use 2 or 3 prong power plugs?

Has it ever been determined if the 207 and 307 use the same driver?

Just got back from my trip.  I wont have time to repair my dead laptop so I'll probably leave the Audio GD Compass at home.

I haven't been on Head-Fi in a while but I still plan to be there.  I'll be driving down from Montana the night before so I might be a little tired and unprepared. 

I like the HD650 on high and the K701 on low.  I would describe the HD650 as warm, bass heavy, and slightly veiled.  Thats just my brief opinion of it and others might disagree.  I use the Audio-gd Compass and have never heard the uDac.

Been using the original Saitek Eclipse for many years. It's a rock solid keyboard. I've actually seen them in use at two different hospitals on mobile PC stations.

Thanks for getting this organised Asr. I plan to attend. I can bring Elekit TU-882 Audio-GD Compass Grado HF-2 AD900 HD650 DT770 AKG701 MS1

Great write up. I've never tried the DT880 but with all the praise they get I was considering getting a used pair just to see how they do. I disagree with your opinion on the Pro2500 but others have said they are pretty good so maybe it's me. I thought they were average at best. I really enjoyed...

It looks like it comes apart rather easy with 3 screws hold the hinges together but I'd be worried about the spring mechanism falling apart once the cover is off.

I would say it has analytical bass performance. It doesn't have the boom but that just makes the lower frequencies more detailed.

I washed one of my pads in the sink with a little bit of Tide and that worked well. You may want to use an unscented detergent if the fragrance bothers you. The pads twist off but pay attention to their placement. One side is thicker than the rest.

You can match an amp to your headphones but I wouldn't say there is a best amp for gaming. There might be a best DAC for gaming but you're probably not going to find one under $100 that does better than an X-Fi. If you want better music on those AD700 get a better DAC.

Back when I used an X-Fi it was always set to 2.0 speakers. I tried the 3D once and it sounded holographic and inaccurate.

I haven't used the AKG K701 in a while but I've compared the two pretty extensively for gaming. I really like the K701 but I can't stand wearing them for very long.

In my opinion the K701 is big but not artificially big. The AD900 is much bigger.

Okay, I'll leave it as is. One driver seems to be louder than the other so I was wondering if these could have any affect on the volume.
