    So I'm in the mood to replace my d jays for some triple driver phones and been looking at the se530s but I heard the 535 are coming at some point later this year would it be worth waiting for the 535 or just buy the 530 now? I don't mind waiting until like the summer for new phones but I'm...

    Grado Ear Cushions

    I realize this topic has been presented previously... but, with all the current interest in Grados by "nubees"... I thought it might deserve a "reprise." I read in a much earlier post(s) that you could increase the comfort of Grados headphones and tame their highs a bit by several...

    Perfect IEM?

    Recabling Denon D7000

    My cat ate through my D7000 cable coming out of the left ear and now I need to get them repaired. Rather than splicing the cable back myself, I figured I'd do it right and either get them replaced with the stock cable or something else. If I send them back to Denon, it will be $55 just for...

    My girlfriend destroyed my headphones.

    Well, kinda. I received a text from her while I was at work saying that she vacuumed over the cord. When I got home, I saw that the vac had pretty much destroyed the wires. They were frayed, cut, spliced and otherwise beat up. Now, they're not the most expensive headphones in the world, but were...

    Recable with inline iPhone/iPod control? Pics?

    I've never liked the Apple 'buds' and liked the in-ear version even less (don't like putting things inside my ears), but man I miss the inline remote for volume/track/pause control. I would love to add such a feature to my recabled PortaPros to make them truly enjoyable as portable phones. Has...

    HD 525 Repair Help?

     I've had this pair of headphones for quite a while now, and I'm at a loss as to how to fix the problem of having jittery sound in the left ear piece. I've read from previous posts that this can be fixed by adjusting the leads, but neglected to mention how exactly to open the headphones. Plus...

    Shure cable issue - is it fixed?

    Hello. After getting my Shure E500 replaced for the second time due to the cable getting stiff and breaking I finally got the SE530 instead. I looked at the manufacturing date on the earphones and it says it was manufactured sometime in december 2008 (the code is 3168). Is this cable better than...
