    I purchased these in February 2021 from Headphones.com, a Sennheiser authorized retailer. I tried to get back into headphones, but they're not for me. I'm looking to upgrade my near field monitor system. These have mainly rested in their box and are unblemished. No modifications. The exterior...

    HD 800s Sweet Spot.. HDV820 vs PS Audio GCHA

    I have had a strange experience. I thought I'd hit the top of the pile, all arounder setup with the Hd800s > balanced hdv820 However, I plugged the headphone unbalanced into my old ps audio gcha and for classical music, the sound is so thunderously massive and dynamically musical - albeit not...

    Calling PS audio GCHA owners... Volume experiment/test

    Skip to 4th paragraph to bypass personal journal entry tracing me path from inklings to revelation.  I received the GCHA from another head-fier a couple days ago. With iem ue triple.fi 10, first impressions involved how much life it sucked out of the music.  No highs, no dynamics, slow slow...

    Dedicated components with interconnects <vs> Single Interface USB DAC+AMP+etc

    Individual components do allow maximizing the quality at every step of the output, however, I'm wondering whether the decay in signal due to interconnects etc detracts enough that a single interface, even at a lower price point, may be better?   My situation: [emu 1212m pci soundcard]  > ...

    probably the normal maximum volume that the speakers would emit with the volume knob at that position. but the sound sounded like a surge, sort of whooshy, like a electronic sound

    help... powered off dac with speakers on

    my adam a7 speakers are connected to my zhaolu dac. I turned off the power on the dac while the speakers were still on about midvolume. There was a loud sound from the speakers. Is it possible I damaged the speakers?

    Marshmallows or the KSC75s??

    stock tips. yes, they're uncomfortable after a short period. Pretty sure they've made the entrance to my ear canal wider ps i'm not saying these can come close to acheiving what my home rig does, but with the worser quality recordings i have, where the k701's don't hide the ugliness, or where...

    Marshmallows or the KSC75s??

    jeeze, I have the marshmallows for a couple days. These things are crazy. The dynamics are very good. I like the isolation and the sound signature. I like a more intimate, lush sound, and therefore I would go for the marshmallows over ksc75. I have a emu 1212m> zhaolu cs4398 > mpx3 slam > akg...

    K1000 - Are they REALLY worth 2-3 times the price of K701?

    no mention of the bass roll-off. that's the deciding factor for me btwn k701 vs k1000. You don't feel as intimate with your music as you do with the k701

    PC Mag - UE triple.fi {vs} Shure e500 {vs} er-4p

    Quote: Which one is it that sounds better, the E500 or the tripfi? PC mag says one is "best-sounding" and the other is a "...definitely prefer.." Is this like saying the best sounding one is not as fun to listen to? the e500 review was written before the triple.fi was

    PC Mag - UE triple.fi {vs} Shure e500 {vs} er-4p

    for reference this is what he said in the e500 review The E500PTH is the best-sounding set of in-ear headphones I've ever tested. Comparing them with, say, my Etymotic ER-4P is like comparing a set of bookshelf studio monitor speakers with a pair of floor-standing three-way speakers. Unlike...

    loud buzzing noise when powered on

    the buzz i'm referring to isn't on the headphone end or in the signal chain. It comes from the amp itself. When I turn the amp on without headpphones on, the amp emits a buzzing sound. It's been like this ever since i got it, but i think with the new tubes you gave it's even louder. I think it...
