Hi, this is what you do. Go to Settings -> Bluetooth Look at 'MY DEVICES'. To the right of the device name there's a blue 'i' in a blue circle. Click on the 'i'. You'll get a list of device types - choose between them. By the way, that list of device types only appears if and when the...

Okay, a specific question. This amp with a pair of Revel M16s in a room 5m x 3m (that’s 16’5” x 10’). Comments? Enough Power?

A quick update. I live in Yorkshire, which gets warm about once every 6 years. On the odd occasion that I’ve walked to the local shop (which is when I do a deal of my listening) when it’s warm, and worn over-ear headphones, my ears have become very sweaty. As such, I expected I’d be using my...

I’ve no massive confidence. However, being on BBC4, it has more chance than if it were on most other channels.

BBC Four (HD) 23:30 (11:30pm). How to Make: Headphones

I think ‘state of the art’ just means the latest, best, cutting edge technology/features/materials/design. We’ll all have our own frequency preferences. But perhaps the key thing here is that we have a headphone which clearly aims for Harman, and hits a bullseye. It has very low distortion. As...

Are you sure? Last time I checked, USB on all fires is in-only, and the only way to connect to a SAC is using a HDMI audio stripper.

I can't answer that, but I'll have a look at the bitrate when I get chance. Not sure when that'll be, as I disappear to Skiathos for 10 nights on Wednesday.

Shame we have to pay such high prices in the U.K.

But surely, in the same way the headphone-buying community likes different frequency curves now, the eq correction could be equally different. It’s just as difficult to accurately re-create an inaccurate target sound as it is an accurate one. And just as easy to eq to that incorrect curve as a...

Could you be more specific? Do you have to take them off because of something to do with the sound (distortion?) or a lack of physical comfort from the unit itself?

It strikes me that some companies like Harman have the R&D clout to tune headphones physically. For others without their resources, this may be a more cost-effective way forward.

They arrived yesterday. I won’t post a review, as I’m not even close to being either expert, or trained, or golden-eared enough to pontificate. I will just offer a very subjective first view. - They sounded great to me. - They’re very light. - Clamp force is initially a little tight, but time...

I can understand @amirm ’s reasons for not EQ-ing these, but I’d love him to reconsider. My reason being, this is something that’s been asked about a lot. What would happen if you EQ’d a pair of headphones which were way off target with their frequency response, but had the ability to cover the...

There are many of us who can't get this to work on anything, and others for whom it's flakey, suddenly stopping working for no reason, etc.
