    which headset doesn't ruin hair (not a joke)

    Ok so this is my first post on the forums, and I'm hoping somebody here has experience with this... Every single over-the-head headset I have used flattens my hair, in the spot where the headset rests. Sure, you can say this is normal. It is. However, I am unable to "unflatten" my hair by any...

    What koss models use the same "speakers" as the PortaPros?

    What Koss models use the same speaker drivers, or whatever it's called, as the PortaPros? Also, will all these models have identical sound considering they are the same speaker driver?

    Seeking advice for the £40 ($60) range please

    Hi   My SR60's broke - the driver gave up, and it wasn't the hair problem.  A repair company has told me they can fit new SR60i drivers in them for £40 ($60 USD).   My question - should I get the repair with the new SR60i drivers, or is there a headphone on the market that you think is...

    KSC-75 vibrations/distortions

    Hi everyone, i have googled a little bit... i'm very confused, it seems like i'm the only one who is very disappointed by this model :s I'll try to put it short: i bought them something like 1 year ago on mymemory-uk mainly for jogging, as my cx300 didn't stay in place while running. After a...

    best value <$300 unamped headphones?

    any suggestions for good value sub-$300 cans that sound good unamped?   my priorities are:   1) sound - think i lean towards details/"fun" sound, don't like overly-analytical 2) comfort/not too heavy 3) sound stage   from what i can tell, the senn 598s fit these, but i'm not...

    Blast from the past... Sennheiser MX5

    Hey guys... How many of you have these older Senn earbuds? They have little bass when compared to the MX500s, and the midrange is a little off... but they have the largest soundstage of any earbud i've heard, and plucked instruments are oh so fast, so agile... which is actually pretty cool...

    Koss KSC-75: Better Than $600 Headphones???

    I re-read some of the comments in the ksc-75 thread, and they are quite disturbing. I love my koss headphones and tend to suspect that they get you 90% of the way along the road to the "holy grail" flagship headphones from sennheiser, grado and the like.    What's astonishing however is that...

    I ripped the cable out of my portapro by accident... anywhere to get a recable for cheap?

    Title says it all. I just got new portapro KTC's and I accidentally stepped on the cable and ripped one out... I'm so bummed. I think Koss has a lifetime warranty but they're Kramer modded so i don't know if that voids it. (I can't solder)

    Want to get a new portable 'phone—or two. Is the HA-S500 or HA-S400 much of an upgrade over the KSC75?

    As the title says, I wish to get a new 'phone or two for portable use. I'll be using them with my Clip+.   ATM my go-to portable 'phone is the KSC75 (not with the clips—clips don't work for me—with Portapros frames) and, while they sound great, they leak lots of sound which makes them...

    My KSC75 Equalizer Settings

    I'm pretty sure I've got these perfect now. The bass is flat ala Stax/Etymotic and I've fixed the driver peaks, the BIG driver notch at around 4 kHz, and the ear canal resonance everyone experiences around 7.5 kHz. The first eight filters, since a Rockboxed portable only allows 8 peak filters...

    Realistic/Koss Nova 55

    Just received these. I ordered them on a whim because they were cheap and have been enjoying vintage phones here lately. They are practically brand new. Suspiciously enough these have drivers that look a lot like ksc 75 drivers. And oddly enough they have a similar sound signature. Does anyone...

    Realistic Nova 40

    Well, I found a set of these heavy old suckers in my parents attic. My lord, these have to be the heaviest set of headphones I have ever held. The opening in the pad is about an inch and a half, and the inside has a bit of a lip, so the bottom of the earlobe just barely sticks in there...

    Best Beater Headphones?

    My KSC75s broke again and I'm looking for another pair of beaters. I was considering the Senn-PMX75s or just getting another pair of KSC75s. What should I do?! Listen to literally every type of music with a main focus on classical, and hip hop and rock.

    Valhalla for HE560

    I have a Valhalla and was wondering if it was powerful enough to juice the HE560's properly. I just got the HE560's and they sound great but I am not knowledgeable enough to know the ins and outs of powering this stuff. I love the Valhalla with all of my other cans, especially my cheaper stuff...

    Ath-M50 Driver broken?

    Have a pair of ATH-M50's and the right ear phone has stopped working.   Is this a common issue? If so how would it be fixable?   I took the headphone apart and don't see any breaks in the wire or connections, so do I just need to replace the whole right driver or could it be an issue with...

    Wrinkled driver

    Hey guys, So recently my Sennheiser HD 280s started sounding noticeably quieter in the left ear.  I opened her up, and it looks like there's some wrinkles on the driver (see image).  Is this the likely cause?  Does anybody know how to go about popping these out?  I tried blowing in them...
