I do a fair bit of travelling and listen to a wide range of music, including vocals, classical and rocks that I ripped and saved as ALAC in my iPod Classic.  Depending on circumstances, I switch between my Westone 3 and my Ultrasone Pro 900 plugged into my Ray Samuels Predator to which the iPod...

I made this in November 2012 so it is 9 months out of date! However, I thought I'd put it up anyway after editing it to see if people would enjoy it.    I plan to do a more up-to-date version of the video later this year, likely after the October Tokyo headphone festival.     The...

Hi I'm currently using miracles ( balanced through the clas and sr71b). I would like to try a different type of sound, with more bass and more forward mids. Now, I know there had been some reviews on the heir 8a and the jh16 (read them all), but to my knowledge, none that was comparing the 8a...
