Hi there, long story short, my stock K7xx velour pads (memory foam inside) are filthy, and i was thinking about cleaning them with water and detergent, as seen in this video: The problem lies in the fact that these pads have a plastic ring GLUED to them, and i was wondering if it would fall...

From top left to right: AKG K7XX, K340, K240 Sextett (MP); bottom: K400 (EP). (PS: K7XX is here on the photos because it is rather more popular these days... So you can visually compare it to the vintage AKG's :wink:) Recently I have purchased an AKG K400 (EP version) headphone (full sized...

So, this may be kind of a weird thread, and I couldn't decide whether to post it here or in the full size thread. I thought I'd try here, since more people would be familiar with the sound of the KZ AS10. I recently purchased the AS10, and really like the sound signature. I feel like it is...

Hi folks, I've been following this forum for a while, but only now I got to actually make an account and join this awesome community. As an aspiring audiophile I want to ask which of the Massdrop exclusive headphones do you think I should get for music consumption + computer use. I'm looking...

I want to either upgrade my HE-400i to the HE-400S or get a K7XX or HD 6XX. Getting the Sennheisers or AKG would be more costly because I would need to get a new DAC/AMP for them. What should I get and is it worth the price to change to the Sennheisers or AKG? I mainly game and listen to music.

I'm planning to buy a K7xx. I'm also planning to buy an fiio e17 for $50. Will the combination go well? The soundstage, mids, highs, lows, warmth.. I'm on budget and the maximum I can afford for an amp is $60. Any suggestions regarding other amps in my price point to use with my K7xx are also...

Hello, I'm new to the forums, and just started getting serious about headphones and DACs. I've had a pair of HD438s and an original Nuforce uDAC for the better part of a decade now, and I've just become disenchanted up with the quality of the setup. So I bought a a pair of 1More Triple Drivers...

Hey guys, I just need a few quick answers for people that have (or used) any of the headphones below: 1. Is this an upgrade from the K553 Pro? 2. How's DEEP BASS (5-20 Hz) compared to K553? 3. How's the K7XX bass in comparison? So basically I'm looking for TIGHT, DEEP BASS, that is louder than...

I apologize for the newbie question, but I'm having trouble finding a simple, straightforward answer to this. What information do I need? And what do I do with that information? I want to make sure the desktop amp I buy will *fully* power my headphones. I don't want it to just be "good enough"...

Would there be any improvement in sound if I replace the TX-SR373 Onkyo receiver with a desktop headphone amp? Power specs for the Onkyo TX-SR373 receiver: All Channels: 155 W/Ch (6 Ohms, 1 kHz, 10% THD, 1 Channel Driven) 80 W/Ch (8 Ohms, 20 Hz–20 kHz, 0.08% THD, 2 Channels Driven, FTC)...

I know I've made a lot of posts over the past year or so, and I'm sorry, but ONE more (I promise) before I start making some purchases about the 7XXs and amping in general. My cousin owns the K7XXs and HE400Is and a tiny little cheap portable amp (I don't remember what it was called), and I...

Hi, I recently bought a pair of K7XXs off of massdrop, and I wanted a good quality amp to go with them. My budget is 400$, and DAC suggestions are welcome as well. I want an amp that will warm up the sound slightly and take off the cold, analytical edge commonly associated with the K7XXs. Thank you!
