I agree with @ReaderZ, $50 is the max for me for utilitarian cables, even for expensive headphones. For comparison, Sennheiser's replacement cable for HD650 is $10 around where I live.

I would classify the cable as passable. Connectors are a bit less smooth than the original ones. But all the non-Aliexpress cable makers price HD800 cables very high, so I would buy this one again. And, of course, I would never buy the original cable only to have it disintegrate in the same way.

2 years so far. Some minor cracking on the strain relief on the headphone connectors, the cable itself shows no signs of aging.

When shopping for a used pair, I have seen this issue repeatedly. Seems to be a case of a bad material. I do not believe in sonic properties of cables, so I bought an AliExpress cable. That was the only one not priced at excessive premium to match the headphone price.

I have one of them (JIU) and I did not notice them to be noisy. I may not have golden ears, though...

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2: Nozzle diameter: 5.7mm. Sizes for SpinFit tips are below. The smallest Samsung tips are too big for me, SS SpinFits are good.

By "small ears" do you mean the size of the earbud enclosure, or the tip that goes inside the ear? I had the second issue. At the moment I am using Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 with SpinFit CP1025 extra small tips.

One of the advantages of this one over DX3 (all generations) is that one can finally switch between gain levels without a need to have the remote around ;)

Crinnacle has published measurements for Moondrop Void (the dynamic ones): https://crinacle.com/graphs/headphones/graphtool/?share=Harman_AE_OE_2018_Target,Void

For receding gums, my dentist recommended using the sonic toothbrush but was against using the non-sonic electric ones.

Someone released the info two days early ;-)

After a long search I have finally found a nice connector that can be used to build a relatively comfortable cable for these headphones. Producer's website. I got the version with standard cable opening, which turned out to be somewhat limiting in the cable choice. In the end I used an old...

I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I can not figure out where exactly does the preamp section end in my case. Is the "taking signal out of the volume pot" a good approach, or should it be somewhere further down the signal path...

Hi I am looking into adding room correction and hopefully sub integration to my existing system. In the present, I am running DENON DRA1000 amplifier, with an active sub wired to the speaker terminals using the high input. I would like to try out running MiniDSP 2x4HD. Since the amp does not...

Category of stereo receivers seems to be the area where there is a lot of selection in used gear, and not a lot available in the new gear. It also happens to be the category that fits into my needs perfectly. At the moment my living room is based around Denon DRA-1000, which seems to be the top...

To make things clear: the headband was creaking only when I was vigorously walking. I have used them for commuting by train without issues for some time.

This seems to be very personal. I had Meze 99 (Noir version) and I had several comfort issues: My ears touching the drivers, elastic headband making noise as I was walking. Despite my best attempts at EQing them, I never was able to get a really good sound out of them either.

Are you looking for open or closed headphones? Do you care about the necessity for an amp?

I understand that the 100Hz peak is part of the intentional tuning. That said, did you try EQing it to the target curve and comparing subjective listening impressions?

@amirm Would you prefer these or HD650 / HD6XX?
