Hello! I am just trying to buy a good earphones. My choice is sony h.ear in 2. I am searching for clarity and bass. Will it be good?will it meet my specs?

I need help navigating the IEM market. I've never used IEMs, and the only "audiophile" gear I've ever owned is a Phillips Fidelio X2. (It's ehh, pinches my head and being open the audio experience seems very inconsistent.) As for what I want out of the sound. I mostly listening to the...

So I've been lately on doing some remixes, like 20 or so but never actually get to end them. Not until this last one: https://mega.nz/#!Wbg03Yaa!7rYT_cwdllbQ7rOLW4rGppZ1R2oBpM3yrRyBW3j84l0 So my question is: what do you think of it? P.S.: I know I could just upload the file to Head-Fi but it...

I bought used V-Moda Crossfades and the headband is so misshapen that I don’t use them. I thought it was the sound of the phones that I didn’t like until I tried a display model in a store not long ago. It turns out, I enjoy the sound when they fit properly. I should mention that the headband is...

The right piece makes the buzzing noise when I touch the plate and only when plugged in to my laptop, when I plug them to my LG V30 there's no noise which gave me an initial relief. It's a slight noise but I can easily hear it and I think it comes from one of the BAs. I was thinking to get a...

Is this a good deal, or can I get something better for the price? They are used (bought in 2013, authentic). People are going crazy after FH5 and OH10. I feel like the resale price for these will be much higher anyway. What do you guys think?

Hey guys. I'm heading for an All-in-One System with plenty of power for my upcoming journey. Read a tons of reviews, threads, measurements and datasheets. Inputs are a notebook via usb, TV via toslink and, if needed, V30 via rca. Headphone are Quad Era-1 (se and balanced), Oppo PM3 (se and...

Hey guys, I'm very new to the headphone game and am looking for recommendations/have some questions. I'm looking for over the ear headphones to be used in two scenarios. First, utilizing the balanced output from my Pioneer XDP-300R DAP. The second being from the 1/4" phones output from my...

Hey, I've made a similiar post, but I don't think i expressed myself correctly :) I'm basically looking for a new IEM, I need something portable with minimal sound leak. I listen to a variety of music but the thing I love the most is the clarity and detail in the sound. I want to hear every...

I have recently become concerned due to a popping noise from my setup (EM-U Rosewood wBlack Dragon cord/Cowon P1), similar to the staticy noise your headphones make when you insert them into a jack. It is very quiet and short, and is only audible in low volume, but it doesn't appear to affect...

Perhaps someone can answer this question. I was comparing NFB-11.28 to Atom, using the NFB's DAC to isolate differences in the amp sections only. I was listening to "Apostolo glorioso" by Dufay on Spotify (Lorelei Ensemble). 10 seconds in, only when Atom and NFB's DAC are both in high gain (NFB...

was listening to the radio today. I am almost 100% certain it was Aerosmith because of the distinct vocals, though I don't recall ever hearing the song before. I couldn't tell if it was new or old, and I was getting out of the car is it was playing. I'm certain it was not the song full circle...

So i have two pairs of headphones, ATH-M50x and HD598. I know this may sound noobish but i prefer the M50x over the HD598 even though i can feel and hear more clearly and better overall instruments in the HD598. My music choice changes in different times of years, some times i listen to music...

I am trying to track down iems that had a review of them featured on head-fi front page some time this year/end of last year (most likely this year). Whoever reviewed them praised them quite a bit saying it was the best ever. They were universal fit and if I remember correctly they were designed...

I’m seeking to buy my dad headphones as a birthday gift that will enhance his music listening experience. I’ve already purchased an Earstudio es100 for him as a portable amp. He has diverse taste in music, with the exception of most classical & hip hop and he mostly listens while relaxing at...

So, I was listening through my DT 1990 plugged into an Aune X1S until I noticed a few things: -These headphones are for mixing and mastering, NOT to listen to music (IMHO). -I have tinnitus problems and the highs on these beasts are just... Shrimmingly bright. -Bass is just a tad laid back. So I...

Hey everybody, First of all thank you for the advice i have read over the years, secondly, the upgrading is real once you start reading this forum. I would really appreciate anyones help in working out the year of manafacture of these Beyerdynamic DT 48. They seem to have some age to them and...

I'm trying to reterminate a cable made by Periapt Cables. It's their Type-8 cable, and for whatever reason the male XLR connector that came on the cable (bought second-hand) had an end on it that flaired out like a bell and was too big to fit either of my amps. So I've got a new male XLR 4-Pin...

Hi all, I've collected some gear over the past few years and I'm wondering how to get more from my music. I listened to Final Fantasy's Distant World album and was absolutely moved by the big orchestra. I'd like to find out if there are any bottlenecks in my setup and the possible upgrades...

I bought my AKG y50 somewhere 'round August 2018, and near April 2019 their cable was producing static when played with so I requested a warranty replacement. I shipped them the cans and recieved physically damaged ones, upon contacting the customer service they are making me run in circles...

After listening to my IE80's for almost 6 months now, I finally decided that they are not really for me. I hate the U-shaped sound signature. The mids seem to be miles away and I feel like they are essentially just Beats headphones but with good treble. I am looking to sell mine. What are some...

Hello, That's now 3 days my old Logitech G230 headset broke, and I would like to buy another one. I've already bought the Sennheiser Game Zero, but I returned it, because it has literally no bass. I want to use it for gaming ( all types of games ) and also listening music ( all kinds, mostly...

Hello, Recently i came in possesion of HD681's and liking the sound, i decided to see if i could improve it with some simple mods, one of which being replacing the yanky wires leading to the driver with something more substantial. Using a van damme starquad cable, it has 4 conductors inside, so...
