Hey if i do the quarter mod, is there anything i can use as a filter to block out debris?  And anyone know how to do the resistor mod?

I'm looking for a set of headphones for my 5-year old.  He's really showing an interest in music and I'd like to encourage him.    I thought maybe a used pair of Grado SR-60s would be a good first pair, but when I put my HF-2's on his head they are way too big.  My wife tried to fit her iPod...

I'm wanting to buy lightweight closed new headphones (not IEMs) for ~$25 or less to use when I go walking - plugged into a Sanza Fuse and GoVibe V5 portable amp. Just something to keep me company while I walk and until I get back to my home headphone system.    I'd like to try something...

So far I only have positive experience with koss because I only own the portapros(I am aware that ksc75 has the same drivers).  Anybody try out other phones by Koss that are inexpensive like the portapros?  How is the sound?  Does Koss make decent earphones?

Koss's marque headphones PortaPro SportaPro KSC75 KSC35 (thanks Goratrix)   Which would you pick and why? This is picking out of the current models that are sold today.   I would pick KSC75 because its more durable than the new PortaPro and doesn't have that reverb issue the...

Hi everbody I'm looking for a replacement for my broken koss ksc75(2nd pair to go down), but as i live in Egypt the choices here are, let's say.....nothing even the ksc75 is not sold anymore at radioshack, so i'm going to order from amazon but keeping in mind that i'll pay at least double the...

A few days ago my precious Koss Pro DJ 100's internal cable got cut and I couldn't fix it no matter what I tried. I figured this would be an excuse to put a new silver cable on it. Well I got my cable and parts in the mail today and set out to fix it. I didn't even really know how to solder...

Alright.  What is the best pair of earbuds for use during exercise?  Priorities are:   1. Does not slip out of ears while running. 2.  Cheapo.  Like under $40.  The cheaper the better. 3.  Sound quality.   So sound quality is the least important factor.  Thanks y'all.

I just ordered the HJE900s.... i was wondering if i would hear a NOTICEABLE difference in sound quality? or anything?

Both are in about the same price range at the big A, so these are the two I'm looking at. I'm just looking for a portable, comfortable, and good sounding pair of headphones(that I'll be using with either my Android, Sansa Clip, or Cowan D2) for work. I listen to mostly jazz and blues, but i do...

  What are the best lightweight headphones for around $50? Walkin around with these RX700s is getting really annoying...it's not exaclty the most comfortable piece of neckwear.. Are these any good? or is there something for $100 that I should just save up for? Just looking for something...

I already have sony mdr v6's for desktop use, but i want something more portable for use with my ipod/etc. I am looking at hd 218/228/238, but what are the difference between these 3 headphones? i know the 238 is open but other than that they look the same to me. i'm also looking at the...

as i start to dive deeper into the world of head audio gears, i noticed a pattern, which was that my fave equipments are "open" type (audio technica ad700 & koss ksc75)   i initially bought the head-direct re2 as i needed something that will isolate from outside noise and vice versa...

Yes, i've read all the posts on these IEMS I just can't decide! Anyway, I need a new IEM since my MylarOne X3 have the infamous bass burnout. I loved the sound of those when they were new if that helps. I'll need them for air travel and generally out of the home. I really like my HD650...

Hello gang, new guy trying to educate myself before my first purchase. I listened to the "virtual haircut" binaural recording with the only phones I have, iBuds. Even in the Buds, the auditory illusion seemed excellent. Is this spatial arrangement an example of what you refer to as soundstage...

I found a couple of options after searching on the forum -  Durabrand Radio Partsexpress Cheapo headphone   I couldn't find the Durabrand at the local walmart so that leaves only one option. Have any others been discovered since then ?

Hello,   I'm thinking of buying either of these headphones and use them for running/snowboarding.   I used to have Portapros and liked the sound until I lost them and bought a Grado SR80i, which I truly love right now!   Reading up on both headphones, it seems the Sportapros are the...

hi guys,   i wanted to get a closed alternative for my koss ksc75, would yuin g2a be suitable? i don't mind sound coming in, but i don't want to disturb others e.g. bus/library/office/partner etc.   cheers

Hey Head-Fi'ers,   I am looking at making my first canalphone/IEM purchase, however I am hesitant at buying any brand or model for one reason: comfort.   I have a set of Koss KSC75, which I find very comfortable, and a set of Audio Technica AD900, which I find very, very comfortable, but...

I currently have a pair of Bose around-ear (TriPort or something?) headphones that I'm pretty sure were quite overpriced (I didn't buy them, don't worry). They were about $125.   Would getting the Grado SR60i's be an upgrade?   Also, if I do buy them, would I need a DAC or amp or any...

Especially compared to the JVC Flats, KSC75 and maybe even the JVC HA-RX700. You haven't reviewed these yet, correct? Also, the CV215's are the same phone just colored, right?

Can someone do a comparison between these two? I recently got the the KSC75 as an upgrade to my Meelectronics m9's and i love em.

 I have a coupel of koss porta pro headbands and i wonder is it a good idea to attach ksc75's (still on there way) to them ?

I'm looking to get a decent set of cans for just using with the computer without an amp. I know in the price range I'm looking at their really aren't many options and I know not to expect the greatest sound but I know their is decent sound to be had at my price range which is a whopping $30. So...

Hi guys   can anyone recommend me a replacement / alternative for a Koss KSC75?   it needs to be; > closed > portable > as AWESOME sounding as koss ksc75 !   it can't be; > canalphone or earbuds > gigantic headphones > something that needs amping > over $100   i...
