I installed all the Mayflower mods minus the felt on driver and cotton. Definitely destroyed the bass when I had them in. I took out the original baffle dampener and cut out a rectangle for the center grid, held down with two thin strips of double-sided tape. Helped a lot to smooth out the...

The rattling on the left side stopped now after playing with the screws. There still is rattling on the right side. I'll see if I can get rid of it by playing with the screws more. I think the tensions on the screws weren't evenly distributed, so I'll try tightening them in a star pattern.  ...

Are the drivers prone to rattling for deep bass, or is it mainly for the MK3 now that they cut out a grid on the driver allowing more air to move? I've had an issue with my left cup rattling and a bit on my right when the volume is turned up. I just exchanged it but the problem is still there. I...

I'd like bring out vocals and guitars more on my MK3's. Would mods directly on the backside of the driver help with this? I'm not too sure what those mods actually do to the sound signature. Are they easily reversible? I'm afraid damaging the stock white dampening on the driver if I stick felt...

Bump. So out of all of these headphones mentioned(and maybe other suggestions), which would have the best microdetail while still suiting my taste in music? I'm also considering bumping up my budget to $300, since I am planning to keep the IEMs for a long while.

So the DBA-02 and CK10 wouldn't really be recommended for my tastes of music? I do enjoy a good amount of bass with a tight hard punch to it, but I equally enjoy an accurate, fast and aggressive overall sound quality. The RE252's sounds like it's a bit too laidback for my tastes from the review...

I'm looking for a pair of IEMs for my portable rig. I listen to mostly electronica (usually house and dubstep, but sometimes trance). I usually will use it to commute to classes every day and will be longboarding half the time, so microphonics are pretty important. I've been looking around, and...

Just hopped on the M50 bandwagon and I'm loving it (:   What are the head band and pad made out of? I'm guessing that it's not real leather. What do you guys use to condition them?

So I recently got a pair of M50 and a Clip+. I know that the M50 do not need an amp, but I figure why not get one if it'll improve the SQ. I'm looking to spend around $100 or less for an introductory portable amp (so far, I'm looking between the Mini^3, cmoyBB from jsdlabs, and the E7). I listen...

Do different people experience different peaks for the same pair of headphones?? 

So I just picked up a new pair of M50s yesterday, and I'm loving it right now. Since they are new, I'm still burning them in. I was looking through this site and came across the tutorial on how to equalize headphones, and I've been trying to figure out how to correctly to do it, but all of it is...

How do the Q40 or M50 compare to an IEM like the TripleFi 10?

What kind of amp would you recommend for a portable use with the M-Audio Q40?

I'm currently looking for a new set of headphones. I listen to mostly electro house, trance, and dubstep; although I occasionally listen to rock and hip hop. I had an Alessandro MS-1 before, and I really enjoyed them, but I didn't really listen to a lot of what I listen to now, so I'm not...

Why must you guys make the decision making so hard for me T__T;

I don't really have any places where I can try these headphones out because I'm currently living on campus with no car, so I can't get around to any places. I'm now just down between MS-1i and HD438. I'd like to hear opinions on how the two would fit for my uses.

What do you mean by that the HD555/595 terminate with a 1/4" TRS? Now I'm just trying to decide between the MS-1, SRH440, HD438 and HD280. I wish I could just try them all out right now =\...

That could be an option, but I'd rather keep my money spending to a minimum since I have other things I'm going to need my money for this semester. Added the Shure's as another option too now. EDIT: Also, I'd like to know if any of the other options listed would be better for my uses.

I am trying to get a new pair of headphones after losing my pair of MS-1's. I really liked how they sounded, so if anything I might just get another pair of them. I can't really specify what kind of music I usually listen to, since I pretty much listen to all kinds of genre. I am also going to...

Not sure if this is the right section to post this in, but recently the cable for my RE0's broke, and I was wondering what I could do to fix this. Is there a place where I can buy new cables or do I just have to take a cable off of another pair of earphones?

hmm, i was pretty much convinced by the review so i just placed my order for the RE0's. Ordered some comply tips to go with them too ^^. How long do the RE0's usually take to come if I'm shipping to America?

is there any reason why the RE0's prices were cut down?? I'd really like to know the difference between the Klipsch Custom 2 and the RE0 so I can make the right choice between them =\

are they even better than the klipsch custom 2's? cause i was reading another thread and somebody mentioned they slashed the price from $199 to $79

hmm, not really looking for another pair of headphones that are that big right now. if i really can't find anything better, I'll end up going with the MS-1's again, but I would much rather get a pair of IEM's instead

I went on a trip to Canada before, and while I was over there I lost my Alessandro MS-1's (I have no clue how I lost something so big -.-;, and now I have nothing to really listen any music with. I loved the sound that came out of the MS-1, but I'm feeling that I should get a pair of IEM's or...
