I have been considering buying some nearfield monitors for a few months now. My room has been the single thing preventing me from purchasing a set. My listening environment would be a small, untreated bedroom shared by two people. I don't have measuring tape so I can't provide a precise...

So, right now I'm in a bit of money jam right now. I was in the process of upgrading my rig, but I just learned today that my financial aid won't be coming in for two weeks. So, instead of using the money I was going to make selling some gear to help me pay for the dac, I have to use it to pay...

I'm a bit interested in the EAD dacs, specifically the DSP-7000 and the DSP-9000, but finding info on them is almost an exercise in futility. From what little info I've gathered, it seems that the DSP-7000 uses PCM-63(not sure which type) chips and at least one of the versions had a PMD100 and...

I've read some impressions from other members that the KT88 pads improved the sound quality of their Sextetts in comparison to the stock pads. I love my Sextetts, but I think a little more clarity and treble sparkle would definitely improve my opinion of them. Do you guys think the KT88 pads are...

I just won a pair off ebay recently so I want to see some more impressions before i get mine. There didn't seem to be very much information about these in the archives, but what do these sound like? I've seen some people mention that they very much like Sextetts so I'm pretty interested in...

My K500 arrived last Saturday. Needless to say, I was very excited when the mail lady walked to my door with my package in her hands. Unfortunately, I have yet to spend much time with them because recently my listening has been mostly blues and classic rock as opposed to my standard diet of...

I just scored a K500 from ebay. How good is it, especially for classical(piano in particular) and jazz? Also, how does it compare to the HD580 or the K501? I noticed that some of the K500 owners prefer it to the K501 which is supposed to be very good for classical, jazz and female vocals. I've...

I have a pair of Sextetts(Mid Production) and I'm not very impressed right now. I'm not feeling the magic. It's a step up from the IEMs I was using before, but I like my HD580 w/HD600 grills much more. I know I'm not driving them properly since I'm forced to run them from my laptop and portable...

I just got them yesterday night! They're my first hi-fi headphones; needless to say, I'm really happy with them. They're a little beat up, but they still work fine. The only exception is that one cable connector shorts out sometimes, but I ordered a HD650 cable from Senn so it's not a big deal...

I know this topic has been beaten to death, but I'm still lost. I'm asking because I just got a good deal on HD580s a few days ago and my pair is probably coming in a few days. I know the difference between the two for most ears is supposed to be fairly minor and probably only apparent on good...

I found a pair of Sextetts for about 70 dollars minus shipping. Would this be a good deal? I know they've been going for about 100 or so on recently on the F/S forum, but I also read they used to go for about 50 or so? There's also a pair on ebay.de right now for about 42 euros, but the auction...
