    Headsix - right channel loder than left

    Hi all, I've been noticing a strange and extremely annoying trend with my Headsix. The right channel volume seems to be a little higher than left. It's very evident on approximately the first 15 degrees on the knob, then it evens out a bit, but never fully recovers. I notice it both on both...

    Have a Headsix, love it, but need something more jeans-pocket-friendly

    Hi all, I currently have a Meier Headsix, and I love it. It pairs up great with the D2000, as well as SE530s. However, after getting the Shures about a week ago, I realized that it is very beneficial to carry an amp with me, as it fills in the cracks in the sound produced by the lame...

    IEMs for metal, D2000 sound, ~$300

    All said in the title. I love the D2000 sound, and I want some IEMs to compliment them. If anything, I would love a bit more bass. Also, I would mostly use them on airplanes, so isolation must be good. Thanks!

    Entry-level DSLR, ~$550

    It seems like people here have not one, but two high-priced hobbies I haven't had a camera for quite a while, and I thought now could be a good time to dip my toe in the prosumer area. I haven't been doing my research for very long, but it seems like Nikon D40, (maybe D60 if a find a...

    Headphones with the most bass impact/SLAM, ~$250 +-$50

    Hi all, I recently sold my DT770, and am in search of am upgrade. I used to have a pair of Grado SR225s before trading them for the Beyers. I loved everything about the SR225 except for the bass. It wasn't quite enough. I did the tape mod, and bought an amp (Headsix) but it just wasn't...

    Cans for metal, SR325i vs D2000

    Hi all. I already have a pair of DT770 for stationary use (not perfect, but works), as well as Crossroads X3i and Creative EP630 (favorite out of the two). The IEMs are run straight out of the iPhone, and the DT770 is through Silverstone EB01 and a Headsix. I am looking for a pair of 'phones...

    iPhone EQ really that bad?

    I got an iPhone a few days ago. I use Crossroads X3i headphones, they sound fine with EQ off, but as soon as I turn it on (usually Rock or Electronica, sounds best with metal), I get sibilance and distortion in the low frequencies. It only shows up in certain songs, some you can't even notice...

    Headphones for classical and oldies as a gift (female), ~$120 budget

    Hi all. My girlfriend's birthday is on the horizon. I thought it would be nice to get her something better than ipod earbuds that she could use. She is into oldies (Sinatra, Dean Martin, etc) as well as classical and some pop. I know, I should be making those kinds of decisions on my own, but...

    Darth Beyer vs Denon AH-D2000

    I've got a pair of Beyer DT770. Coming from Grado SR225s, I got all the bass I need, but for the price of decreased detail and recessed midrange. I've heard that Denon D2000 has almost the same amount of bass, but it's more complete in the other areas. But also, getting the DT770s darthed would...

    An amp that would add some bass to Grado SR225

    I'm thinking of getting an amp for my SR225. Budget: ~250 I would love to get an RSA Hornet, but it doesn't seem like i have the money. My specific request for the amp - it has to add a little bass to my headphones. Not too much, but a fair amount. Even with the tape mod, they are still not...

    Noob question about soundcards and DACs

    I've been in a search of a DAC and/or a soundcard, need to upgrade the onboard sound (having to swap music to a DAP to listen to it in some kind of decent quality and without terrible hiss is a hassle). So I've seen people connecting expensive soundcards to external DACs via optical outs, which...

    Meier Corda Move vs RSA Hornet vs ?

    Right now I have a pair of Grado SR225s which I'm hopelessly in love with. So now I need an amp. As I said in the title, I was looking at Meier Move and RSA Hornet. I am leaning more towards the Hornet because it has a reputation of a controlled bass beast, and my SR225s can use some extra punch...

    Looking for an IEM with sound similar to Grado SR225

    Recently I got a couple pairs of headphones: Grado SR225 for stationary listening and Jays d-Jays for when I'm on the move. I am absolutely desperately one hundred percent in love with the Grados (w/tape mod), but at the same time I'm disappointed with the d-Jays. Every time I leave my house...

    Two pairs of OK headphones for a beginner on a budget - makes sense?(details inside)

    I've decided to get a completely new rig - cellphone won't cut it anymore. I've already ordered an iriver clix2, expecting it to come Monday. Now my big question is - headphones (what else is new? ). I'm getting IEMs for sure, most likely mylarone XB, although thats not yet decided. I need...

    Bass-loving metalhead seeking IEMs for around $100 - please help

    Title pretty much says it all. I've been using Sony EX71s with moderate success, but now they finally fell apart (held on for about 18 months - I'm impressed). I will be buying a new DAP, most likely either an iriver clix2 or meizu m6, and i need some new in-ears. I'm not a total bass freak...
