1) theres a cloth sticking to stock grill.
2) Schiit Fulla2
3) my opinion- upgrade your cable and use FocusA pad.

1. I know others have changed the cloth into something more transparent, but many have said it further improves if the grill was changed to something with wider holes. Would like to understand why.
2. Any suggestions for DAC+amp with portable battery? The Fulla 2 seems suited for laptop portable use but not with phones while on the move.
3. What's wrong with the stock cable?
Any recommendation for portable DAC+amp to pair with these and under 200 USD? I don't want to spend more than the headphones, and these will most likely be my best headphone for the time being (I need to balance my budget across all my other hobbies...LOL). Considering the Fiio Q1 and audioquest dragonfly (anyone tested the red vs black?). Will most likely be using these with my android phone and tablet as my PC has the dedicated DAC+amp already, but if it helps I don't mind plugging it into my PC as well. I also don't have much spare room on my desk, so a bigger desktop DAC+amp stack will likely not work for now.

the he400i are actually $500 but on sale for 250. They are more comfortable and have a better sound.also the he400s are plastic and the he400i are metal.Right now both the HE400s and HE400i are $250 on Amazon...I've read the entire thread and I'm having a tough time deciding between the two. I don't own any open back HPs so this will be a first. I will say that I do love my RHA MA750 iems. They are great for vocals, and have a warm, bassy tone with smooth highs. I really don't like piercing highs as my ears fatigue easily.
For sources I have an Ibasso DX90 and a recording audio interface (Audient ID14) which actually sounds great with my monitors. From the specs it appears to have a decent headphone amp.
From everything I've read it seems that I will probably enjoy the HE400s more with Focus A pads. Another part of me is thinking that 400i may be the better long term choice since it could scale if I get a headphone amp down the road. I listen to a lot of indie rock, folk, and some electronic and rap. I would probably rank vocals and drums as my favorite instruments to hear more prominently and accurately.
I appreciate any suggestions!
Is the 400S in the hall fame still in innerfedelity?![]()
yes, but its only relevant if you have the same preferences as Tyll
Knocking off HD600 and HD650 is good enough for me![]()
