Good to hear praise from another new ksc75 owner!

I havent changed a thing with my 75s as well; they already sound great.

im really enjoying my modded KTXPro1 though. i cant take em off my head.

This week I'm going out to get another pair, I think it might be me, but there might be a very slight imbalance in the channels. I can tell better with two pairs, as I'll a/b them to see!

I am running these straight out of my X5, and I have always run Grados out of my PPX3-Slam, so the sound is different, as warming up the Grados with tubes is the way I like listening to them! I would listen to my 225's out of my X5, but I don't have an 1/8 adapter to use right now!

Is there a way to get the actual clips tighter on the ears, because I find myself constantly adjusting them to see if they are to loose!

Can you compare these with the PX100's because I am considering them both.

Also can you tell me how bad the leaking is?

I've owned both. I think the PX 100 has a more refined treble, while the KSC 75 sounds slightly grainy in this region. PX 100 is smoother.

Also, leakage isn't that bad on KSC 75...but isolation is nil, obviously.

You can get replacement pads for them at radio shack - the small size fits the KSC-75, the medium size fits the Grados.

cheezos, let's buy off all the ksc75 on amazon

Got mine today at Circuit City for 21.62 or something...they sound pretty good out of the box w/o burn-in though, as I put them through their paces with some test tracks I always use, they absolutely stumble through this low-bass song (Booty Clap by Prince Paul)

I guess I'll use them when I don't want headphone-hair from my Grados and don't feel like stuffing my sf5p's in my ears.

Who's cheezos!!

Sounds good to me!

, but for now all I did was pick up 1 pair of KSC75's, and 1 pair of Portapro2's!! I couldn't pass up that deal, plus I really want to hear the Portapro's to!

 

[Peyotero]

If you are going for the PortaPro's, then you MUST get the HD414 pads!

Otherwise get the AKG k1000 for 999$

or something becouse those foamies will rock your socks!
Though they kill portability instantly (some ugly arse pads there.. but it's all about the sound right?

)

the portapors were closer sounding to the px100 than the ksc75 did, but i still prefer the cleaner sound on the ksc75. they are too sweet...gonna order mine these few days.

 

[Oink1]

Sooo much Ksc lurve about atm...

(Deservedly so, i might add

Oooh yeah! - I'm lovin' the PortaPro/414 pad look - How'd they sound?, they look uber comfy!

 

[Peyotero]

They only look good on the picture

In reallity they are freaking HUGE. You won't go outside with those. The only reason you want them is the sound and the comffort.
I won't go into specifics but wait till you hear acoustic instruments with those on

If you still insist on keeping them portable, see that circle on the left can? I was gonna cut this part off but i wusses out becouse the pads were uter pain in the arse to get

If you can get two pairs then cut it off and post a pic. Maybe i'll do it to

 

[kramer5150]

OK I'll play... Support the team!!

HD414 pads, modded of course

KSC35 drivers in the Pro1

Titanium drivers in the sporta... the main reason I'm not terribly excited about the new street style thats due in March.

 

[kin0kin]

how do you cut such a perfectly round hole on the foam

 

[sonic_rage]

what's the procedure to remove the drivers from the PortaPro headband to change the pads?
