    Is the GR07 sound signature what I'm looking for?

    Sorry for the long post...   I'm looking for solid all-rounder IEM -- ideally I'd only have one pair. Think the GR07 might be perfect for me. What do you all think? I have owned a few pairs of decent IEMs, so I'll describe how I feel about those too. I listen to a wide variety of genres but...

    Galaxy S awful with q-jays

    I have a Galaxy S phone (a Fascinate to be exact) running a voodoo kernel. The sound is fantastic with my audio-technica m50's, couldn't ask for more from a phone.   However, my q-jays sound horrible plugged into this phone. The midrange becomes overblown and congested and the whole...

    Looking for MTPC-level texture/fullness, with more sparkle

    Need some recommendations, hope you guys can help me out :) Sorry for the long post and for the bullet points!   I bought a pair of Monster Turbine Pro Copper off another Head-Fier, and I've used them almost exclusively for the past month, and I have decided the sound signature isn't for me...

    I pulled out the strain relief on my M50

    Yes, I'm stupid. I tried unplug them, wasn't thinking, and yanked on the metal spring that serves as strain relief. It turns out, this thing is not attached to the plug housing, so it came off.   But I'm hoping I'm not the first one ever to have done this. Does anyone know how I can get it...

    How do cheap portable amps compare to HT receivers?

    I just got my M50s today, and even out of the box they're easily the best headphones I've owned. I'm pretty impressed with what my 3rd-gen iPod Touch can do for them, but I plugged them into my Onkyo home theater receiver and noticed a big difference. The bass cleaned up a lot and had more...

    Has anyone bought reburbished HD595s from Dakmart?

    If so, did you get the 50 ohm or 120 ohm version? The site says 120, but I find that highly unlikely, even for a refurb. Thanks for any help

    Seeking good impedence adapter

    If anyone has the appropriate equipment, could you please measure the impedance on UE sound level attenuator for me? I'm looking to build/buy something with a similar impedance, but in a more convenient form. Alternatively, if anyone has UE IEMs, is there some other impedance you have found...

    Low-end extension - please test your IEMs for me

    I was listening to "Missing You" by the Black Eyed Peas off their new album, and there are a few great bass notes at the beginning. I'm using UE super.fi 3's which are the best IEMs that I own (though I've sampled many others), with a sound level attenuator straight out of an extremely old MP3...

    Need advice from people who don't like Dre Beats

    The only good headphones I've used extensively are IEMs, and I really like the IEM sound, but I've been planning on getting some full-size sets eventually (not anytime soon). I had some time to kill at the airport the other day and tried on a pair of Dr. Dre Beats, which seem to have received a...

    Balanced armature damage symptoms

    I had my SF3's plugged into a computer when a buggy software turned my volume all the way up. It was enough to give me a minor headache. I'll estimate it at over 130dB. EDIT: that estimate is too high Obviously, I pulled them out right away, and then unplugged the headphones. Lucky I had the...

    TRS plug/jack layouts

    On a long flight, I was bored and decided to get my full-size headphones connected to the in-flight entertainment system. This was one of the old planes, on which the jacks still have two plugs. I took the cheap, non-isolating headphones they passed out and cut the plug off with a plastic...

    super.fi 3 impedence

    I've just purchased some super.fi 3's, and I'm happy with the purchase. They sound very good to my ears. However, I noticed some hissing when using a portable (Creative Zen Sleek Photo). The impedence on these is 13 ohm, so I thought that would be the problem. I used the included sound level...
