Hey guys, I am currently in the process of selling my reef aquarium for $400 and I want to upgrade my setup. I currently run a JDSlabs cmoy bbv2.02 with Brainwavz HM5s. I am unsure if I want to upgrade just the amp to a JDSlabs c5 (will it be that big of a stepup from cmoy 2.02?) and keep my...

Hi All,   Need some quick advice here. I received a european coupon for 30% discount for the logitech store,Valid for just 1 day. Alot of headsets have been already discounted by 50%. So quite an attractive deal.   The one i am looking at is the UE 6000. From 199€ tot 60€ including...

Is there any website that still sells the fischer audio fa 003 or the brainwavz hm5 ? please any help il appreciate it

  Hi Guys,   Been browsing for a while and finally took the plunge on getting some better headphones from my old/cheap and now dog eaten AGK K321 iem's. I picked closed headphones over another iem for comfort and closed design for use at work (a must!). I researched what good closed...

Hi! I'm searching for a headphone with a sound signature like my brainwavz b2(crisp highs, mids not recessed, higly detailed, with fast bass, i don't mind some bass rumble but they don't have to me overwhelming). I saw the offer of the hm5 at 99,50 from mp4nation but in the hm5 thread the...

I bet this thread has been made enough times that it's cliche but bear with me.   So I'm in the market for a pair of "audiophile" headphones. To my understanding, there is more to getting the best sound than just an awesome pair of headphones.   I keep seeing DAC and amp popping up...

I have been lucky enough to be sent the Lindy Premium Hifi headphones for review (Thank you Lindy) , you may know them as the Brainwavz HM5 or the Fischer FA-003.   I am not sure if the Lindy’s are exactly the same, I know the accessories differ between the models but whether they share...

I ordered one from amazon yesterday, and to my amazement they shipped it overnight international fedex from China. They put it in the mail in Kwun Tong yesterday, and it's going to come to me in California this morning, according to the Fedex tracking information.  ...

Good day guys,    Does anyone have any suggestion for replacement pads for the AKG K845BT.    Looking for something with a good seal and maybe a bit more roomier   Some people have suggested the HM5, What are you thoughts and will they fit well?

I woke up to a dead HM5 , my left cup was not working ...I was diligent , opened it up to see a solder problem and saw nothing , fast forward 2 hours , opened it again and used a magnifying glass to find out broken strands , cut , resolder and BAM works perfectly  Since I was feeling too...

So yeah ..my left cup is dead , switched the cables to see if the cable was bad , result was bad news  This kinda sucks , since the screws are well inside , I am heading to the shop to buy some thin screwdrivers , if its soldered properly I might have to contact Brainwavz :(    Well .it was a...

The design (55mm plus 30mm units) looks interesting. Does anyone notice these new headphones?   http://www3.jvckenwood.com/press/2013/ha-sz2000.html   SZ2000/1000 will be around 35,000/25,000 JPY.          

Just bought these yesterday and found the ear pads touching my ears which is slightly weird and uncomfortable.   I've read people putting on the Brainwavz HM5 pads http://www.mp4nation.net/brainwavz-hm5-spare-earpad-1pc, which I was about order.   Then saw they have another HM5, but in...

These are well known to have Earpads which are too small to fit over all but the smallest ears, so I went looking for some bigger ones. Well it seems like I have hit the jackpot first time. I ordered a pair of Brainwavz HM5 earpads from MP4Nation and they arrived today. They fit really well and...

Very little information can be found about this headphone. It would be interesting to know the impressions of those who have been able to try them

I am looking for a portable amp and the Fiio E12 looks like it will fit the bill nicely. I am wondering, what would be the advantage (if any) of a amp/DAC  such as the Fiio E17? My intended use will be with an iPhone or iPod. It is my understanding the a the DAC feature of say an Fiio E17 would...

I've done some (overly) extensive research and still can't find an adequate answer. I'm looking for a fun, forgiving type headphone for everyday use. I've already used and sold the M50s in the past. The mids were annoyingly recessed and the bass had some body but was relatively tame and boring...

Hello everyone. I've been looking for a new pair of headphones since my IEMs recently bit the dust. The only experience I have with headphones is the Pioneer MJ51, which had terrible build quality - one the speakers actually broke off the headband :mad:. So I had to turn to some IEMs that came...

So the title kinda explains itself.    Might just chuck in soundstage in there as well while you think about what they are.   Anyways, I own the Q701 and also the HM5, and apparently they're pretty flat and neutral. But some say that the Q701 has a huge soundstage that's un-naatural and...

Hello. I am wanting a great pair of over the ear headphones specifically for music but I will use for gaming/movies. Some noise isolation would be awesome. Thing is I'd like to not spend more than 200 (I'm only 17 with no job lol). Thanks!

I'm searching a portable music player for a friend: - He has about €200 (250$) to spend on both (closed) headphones (also for notebook and other use) and the music player. Might be a bit more if it is much better. - Only for music listening, at least 20GB+ on storage. - Something portable...

Hey there, I've been looking for a good Amp+DAC combo as I don't have enough money for separate ones for my PC setup which is basically a Brainwavz HM5 connected to my PC.   The FiiO looked like a good choice for me as I like my sound a bit on the warm side and my motherboard DAC is pretty...

I know the AD700 is a king for directional audio (along with it's clone with better colors, the AD700x) but I heard the bass is lacking, is this true? They will be used for about 50% Gaming and 50% music (genres like rap, hip hop, jazz) and i heard the Brainwavz HM5 are decent at doing both.   ...

So apparently the HM5 is a re-brand of the FA-003 (if you thought the NEAR-CLONE build was too subtle..), and I've been hearing that these headphones sound as identical to each other as they look. Other forum users state that the drivers between the two are different:   Quote from MP4 Forum...

Hey guys, I am looking for a more comfortable ear pads for my 700PROMK2. I have searched around and people said the DT770 gel ear pads are good, like these http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/580539-REG/Beyerdynamic_900799_Gel_Style_Ear_Cushions_for.html , but too bad as you can see, they...
