Awesome sf. An hour was all I could handle cuz my ears were aching so looking forward to the mod. I think Wayne will welcome your mod too when it clamps on his head.


^ Yeppp dead exact sentiments. After an hour or so the stock pads despite they are really soft/comfy initially hurts like a mofo as most on ears are. But with my pad over pad mod i can wear these over 2+ hours and the hurt is MUCH MUCH less.

^And if that doesn't work for you, just get contacts.

You know you're an audiophile when you get contacts so your headphones can be more comfortable.

I listened to the Mikros 90 today for about an hour fresh out of the box and was thoroughly impressed. Kef500 level is what I gathered. Unfortunately it will be moving on to its rightful owner right away.

^ OR even better just wear/ put your glasses ON TOP of the pads cuz the cups are so small. No need to worry about breaking the seal and glasses getting squished/ hence pain from clamp.
 
ehhh Twi-Hard much.

You know any places that sells those that are in good quality??? Cuz people say it's best to find them in flee markets where they can be had for cheap but those style are kind wayyyy too old school. haha

Sadly, I have no clue where to buy a nice set from. I'd ask my eye-doctor, but I don't think he would know either.

Speaking of Morpheous. I feel this could be applied to headphones. "Take the *Insert Headphones* and go back to the 'audio' you know, You take the *Insert Headphones* and you'll never look at audio the same way again."

EDIT:

Working on my Moshi & Om Audio reviews this week. I got some messages on a couple of sites about my TH-7BB review being too long so I will try to keep them under a thousand words this time.

Good call on the AKG K323. They sound great out of the box. The damn things are nearly microscopic in size though. For the $27 I paid, they are well worth it so far..


Resistance is dying, must resist, MUST RESIST.

Quick, AB them with something and tell me how much they pale in comparison.

For such small drivers, they have big bass like the Pistons, and a warm signature. Great clarity across most of the spectrum, with what I think is some recessed mids. Using stock tips though, so I'll try more later.
 
They really are uncomfortably small though. I feel like they are gonna get stuck in my ear at some point.

:p Sounds like every IEM I currently own. Now I'm really wondering how they're going to fare after a little more time with them. If they're just on the Piston level I think I'll pass, but if they're a step above them I think I might spend some of the amazon money I get on my b-day (March 14th) on them.

Dats how I like them; deeply inserted into my skull.
