Nice to meet everyone! Long time lurker of the forum here, finally decided to bite the bullet and make an account because why not. Mostly to (hopefully) score a pair of HD6x0s and finally move on from my very aged PC37Xs. Hope to make new friends

Hi, I'm Layke. I had a pair of grados in highschool, someone stole them and 15 years later I bought another pair of grados and I'm actually using them correctly this time and I'm wowed by their sound. I used to use them with an mp3 player and I didn't realize they had much more potential.

Hello, Layke. Which Grado and what are you using it with? + Visit the ‘Grado Fan Club!’ thread in the ‘Headphone (full size)’ forum.

Hello, I created a new account back in 2009 when I looking for my first pair of in ear monitors. I ended up with a pair of Eytomic ER6i that I beat the heck out of and even dissected them to replace the cable. (I am a nerd with SMT soldering capability and have built a few headphone amps back in the day). After 14 years of abuse they finally wore out and I replaced them with the Eytomic MK5, which really did not seem as good as the ER6i's. I just figured I had such good luck with the Eytomic I'd stick with them. Now looking at the options of modern tech, it's a bit overwhelming to play catch up and figure out a good replacement for my needs. Noise isolation and good bass is what I liked about the ER6i. So much has changed I'm not sure where to start, I had always figured the Shure 215 was the best option for replacement, but I hear read that model is pretty long in the tooth. Any suggestions?

I got the 80x and ms1 recently, I'm lost on how to use them portably, I want to walk with it and use my limited storage smartphone offline but I also don't have a PC. I have three phones, two androids (with 64gb SD card) and an 16 or 32gb iPhone that needs a new screen. I got a type C apple dongle yesterday but didn't realize my working android is micro usb so I'll get an adapter if I use that phone. I also need tidal or similar. I'm not sure which phone to use or which dongle DAC, there's so many but I don't want to spend over $50 CAD if I can't hear much of a difference (I'm looking at a best dongle under $100 shootout, also have two $40ish recommendations - c31993 and DSD). I figured I'd get my 5S fixed, it should store about 400 hi res songs if it's 16gb.

Hi! I would honestly start with the Salnotes Zero or Truthear Hola as both have very good very new DD drivers and isolate sound pretty well if you find a good pair of ear tips! But most importantly both are super cheap and have a great frequency response so great tuning with the former being more neutral and the latter being a bit warmer and bassier

Hello, Dmitri ! What are your listening preferences? It’s nice to know of a music obsession > an equipment obsession! .
