The Equation Audio RP-21s are a nice set of inexpensive closed cans. However, many experienced head-fiers have (justifiably) described the upper-mids and highs as areas where these cans could use some improvement. Spurred by the success of mods on the K81DJ & KSC75, I was curious how removal...

I am looking for an upgrade in cans.  I have been using the Sennheiser 414 classic's for a long time.  I use an Ipod classic. I dont have a lot of money to spend around $200 dollars. I would like to find some something that sounds good for the money. Also I dont have any stores in my area...

For the past two months or so I have been researching headphones and still cannot figure out what to get.  I am going to college and need Closed headphones so that I can be quiet when my roommate wants me to be.  I'd like to stay under $300, and would like to avoid getting an amp if I do not...

My previous headphones were Equation RP-15, but were replaced with RP-21 when the yoke(?) developed a crack around the time Equation debuted it. Several years later, the RP-21 split in exactly the same spot. These headphones were babied, always unplugged before removed and placed in a safe spot...

Background: I decided to review 4 popular closed headphones that cost less than $150, and one far less known: the AKG K81DJ, Audio-Technica AT-ES7, Denon AH-D1000, Equation Audio RP21, and the more obscure Koss MV-1. I used the Sennheiser HD25-1, re-cabled with Headphile V2 Blackmax cable, as...
