Ear impression in Montréal, QC
So it looks like the only option have the cable replaced on my q-jays is to have them re-shelled. So be it but now I need my ear impressions. Could anyone recommend an audiologist in the Montréal area? How about diy kits? How much should I expect to pay for ear impressions?- YGingras

Recabling q-jays
My trusty q-jays, after a few years of very good service, have started glitching when I move the left cable. I can see a small crack in the insulation so it's a no brainer to tell what the problem is: http://ygingras.net/gal/l/misc/q-jays-cable-2.jpg They are out of warranty and...- YGingras

New eartips for Q-Jays
Hi, I have a pair of Q-Jays and I love them. But my love for them is not without it's share of problems since I wear them so often that after only one month and a half, I killed my memory foam tips. I'm now looking for a replacement. I prefer memory foam since I get the best balance of...- YGingras

From DT-770 pro 80 ohm to balanced DT-700 2005 250 ohm
It went like that: I sold my DT-770 pro in order to get a pair of Ath-ESW9 but I didn't like how they clamped my glasses between my ears and my head so I traded the ESW9 for a pair of balanced DT-770 2005. I guess was a bit under of a rush to get back to 770 because I didn't even noticed I...- YGingras

Looking for audio benchmarks
Greetings Headfiers, since I joined this forum, I went through several combinations of audio source, amplifier, and headphones. It seems that most people in here will test a pair of headphones by listening to music that they like with them. That makes a lot of sense if you want to know if...- YGingras

Ath-ESW9: not for a noisy office
Hi, I work in a bull pen, the worst kind of cube farm setup that you can imagine if you need any concentration, that is, unless you know about headphones. I loved how my DT-770 help me survive that setup then I asked in here how I could upgrade them. I was recommended Ath-ESW10 JPN but as a...- YGingras

Bluetooth headphones with lots of isolation?
Greetings, since I bought a netbook, I listen to music almost exclusively on my laptop. There is something nice in having a single device with a huge hard drive, a huge music collection, and unified song ratings and play-lists following you all the time. At home and at work I usually...- YGingras

Recommendation for usb-powered amp
I recently received a pair of DT770 Pro 80. I use them exclusively at work where I plug them into my laptop's dock station. Nickchen from this forum strongly suggested that I use them with an amplifier. Not knowing enough to make the right choice, I ordered a fiio mini amp just to see what...- YGingras

Greetings, I work as a programmer in a noisy cube farm and I'm looking for a source of portable tranquillity. I own a pair of Sennheiser HD 435s and I really like them.
