Hi all, new member and wannabe audiophile after some help! I have used and loved a set of Sennheiser HDR 170s for my PC for 9 or 10 years now but its time to replace them - starting to physically fall apart. Am hoping to find an upgrade or comparable more modern product? However google research...

I have been using a pair of Q701s for many years now (11-13 years now). They are getting long in the tooth - 2 sets of ear pads, a new band and I rewired them after the wires started breaking. They also just don't sound as good as I remember. I LOVE the sound staging these guys provide and...

Thinking about a set of Grado SR125x. From what I've heard about them, I think I'd really like the sound signature. However, I noticed Grados don't have removable cables. I'm pretty darn rough on cables. Just how fragile are connectors? Is the fragility of cables and connectors overexagerrated...

Didn't want to post in main section, as it's likely a short answer. Looks like it would have some killer soundstage.

I recently found these Hitachi branded Over-Ear Headphones (Images in this Imgur Link) in a nearby Junk yard. I tried to find some info about it online but i couldn't find anything other than the companys other headphones. I tried them with my phone (a Samsung A50). The left speaker wasn't...

我在 Reddit 上找到了这个，都是关于音乐的。很高兴在这里看到这么多不同的观点。

Hey everyone! I have been trying to do research (both on here and other websites) to see what kind of headphone would suit me. I am a complete novice, so bare with me as I try to explain what I am after! Budget: all in all, not more than £300 ideally Music: as the title suggests, I would like...

Hello, so my trusty Cooler Master MH751 swivel hinge is broken, and though maybe i can fix it, i bought it around 2018 and i think it's time for a replacement. I love my MH751's sound profile and i almost thought about just getting another pair of gaming headset, but i do want to try out other...

Hi people some foreground: I've been in the past keen to HiRes audio and home equipment (over 15 years ago), then moved abroad and sold everything. Here I bought very basic equipment for home and that's it. Lately I bought a Sony WH-1000MX5 which kind of resuscitated the nostalgy of HiRes...

Anyone else suffer from tinnitus? May I ask- which headphones do you use?? I had abysmal luck with the Fidelio X2HR's (these were an all out assault on my ears, even after eq'ing and listening at lowest volumes). I switched to planars and my current daily drivers are the Hifiman HE4XX's, and...

Hello guys, I don't really know what to look for now. I have the Audeze LCD2F, Hifiman Edition XV2, Hifiman TH900 MK2, Sony MDR Z1R, HD 600, ZMF Aeolus, AKG 7XX, Campfire Audio Cascade. I tend to dislike neutral, analytical or bright headphones. As you can tell from my current line up is very...

4 Demo Tracks Every Audiophile Should Know | Moon Audio

Hey there! I'm a music producer in need of a good headphone for mixing and mastering. Unfortunately, I can't use studio monitors because I can't acoustically treat my space right now. So I need your help in choosing between two options: Sennheiser HD 6xx and Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X. I want to...

She just popped out and dangles there now. Going through the repair process seems like such a hassle. It looks like a clean separation and I was thinking of just using a metal epoxy and "gluing" it back, but am not that experienced in these matters...

Hello! I want to hear what people think are good pieces of gear (IEMs and headphones alike) specifically for classical music. It's made a resurgence in my life, and I've been enjoying the instruments used in classical music a ton, and would like to know what gear people think would maximize the...

Hello, I'm hoping I can get some help on choosing a nice pair of headphones. First the disclosure: I'm not even close to being an audiophile. I hardly understand some terms as tight, controlled, fast response, muddy, decay, imaging, DAC, etc. without researching online. My best pair of...

The Denon D7000 are gorgeous and I love owning them. However on the rare occasion I attempt to use them I find them just too bass heavy. With a high end system I’m sure they sound great. But I use them through my integrated amp or iPhone, streaming Tidal. When I switch to my Grado, the bass is...

1st, a little back story. I've been in the home theaters forever. Fortunately, I've been able to spend little money on it since I'm close with the owner of Pacific Coast Audio & Video in Newport Beach, CA. But since I moved from my old home into my new one, I'm unable to play my home theater as...

The title kinda says it all, what is a good sub 500 closed back and balanced headphone for the Jotunheim OG with a AKM Dac (may upgrade to the ESS.) I'm upgrading from the Jot OG to Jot 2 for my main system and I am planning on bringing the Jot OG to work to have on my desk. From what I...

I got custom tips for my Etymotic HF3 iems. The tips seem to be in good shape still, but the HF3’s are falling apart. According to the comply site, HF3 uses Comply 100’s. Is it true that I can probably reuse my tips with any iems that fit Comply 100’s? Or are they only good on the near dead...

Hello everybody, I'm new here so I had to post on this forum rather than a specific forum about headphones. Anyway, I've had my AKG K240 s for a while now, they're alright, but I use them for watching videos and more importantly listening to music, in which I have found that they cannot handle...

Source: PC DAC: Schiit Modius Amp: Schiit Valhalla (NOS Tubes) I dig Ambient/Space ambient/downtempo electronica/modern composers/etc and I also enjoy the occasional SynthWave (GUNSHIP, The Midnight, etc) For headphones, I mean upper Mid-fi lower hi-fi. $1500-2k range, I'm currently using the...

Hello! I am hoping to get some recommendations please for some new headphones to use with at least my iFi Gryphon, but also my iFi Nano iDSD Black Label DAC (though this is less important to me). So, the headphones need to support a wired connection (don't mind them supporting wireless...

Hey guys, I figured I would post here so you can help me make my decision regarding my new headphones. Excuse the long post, but I wanted to fit in most of my thoughts. I'm pretty new to the audiophile/HiFi moneysink, and I'm looking to purchase a new set of headphones to replace my old...
