I heard someplace that there are 2 kinds of knowledge: theres knowing what we know, and theres knowing what we dont know. But theres something missing from that. And its this: we dont know, what we dont know. I had to start with that, because earlier headphones I've owned and earlier comments...

Is it better to gradually increase the volume during the breakin period and run it through pretty high volumes in the end? Or is it just as good playing it at normal use volumes which may be pretty low in comparison to some of the levels people listen to? Is there a proper or better way of doing...

I received these headphones from Ultrasone this morning and have been listening all day. At this time, there are several review samples floating around, and Ultrasone was not able to tell me precisely how many hours of burn-in my particular pair has. It's possible this pair was sent...

Thanks to the generosity of bkelly, I recently received on loan his Senn HD590s and his pair of Senn HD600s. Why would he do such a thing? We've dealt with each other in the past on some fairly big-ticket items, plus we've corresponded a lot in the interim. Brian really wanted me to finally...

Hi guys, I'm seeking a new pair of headphones. My old ones were not that good and gone away.   I mainly listen to Metal Music like Death, Thrash, Power, Heavy, Doom, Black, Progressive, Symphonic Metal but Hardrock and Pop Music too.   I need a headphone that is   - fast - (very)...

Thought I had read a post about this but now I can't find it. AudioCubes has the leather replacement pads for the W100 headphones for $45. I'd like to replace the "pleather" earpads on my W1000 headphones with these, but....will they fit? I just think the leather pads might breathe a bit...

Hey all, Just wanted to give a shout out for my fave headphones, the Audio-Technica w2002. I know there aren't a lot of fans of their sound signature, but to me they totally draw me into the music and create an emotionally engaging experience that I haven't replicated with a different setup...

Hi Head-fiers,   I've never really gone through the effort to write a review while A/Bing headphones for the purpose of writing a review. For this review, I actually spent several hours on several songs trying to pinpoint some minute differences that I hope would be helpful for any readers...

I have been thinking about going with the K1000 as I find my W2002 uncomfortable after about thirty minutes, although I love the sound of the W2002’s. I have listened to the K1000 and liked them a lot and found them to be comfortable. So I am now looking for amp recommendations for the...

Hi,   Just wanted to ask if anyone had any good recommendations for good headphones that included a mic.   I don't care about noise cancellation but want some over/on the ear headphones with a mic for when I use them with the iPhone.   I've looked at some Audio-Technica, V-Moda...

What can I say, they're not even my headphone of choice, but there's no doubt that these are a very special and capable phone. Every serious head-fi'er needs to own and live with these phones for an extended period. Sure they're picky, and they have their sonic signature which needs the...
