headphone

Hello everyone, I'm Anzol from Cuckoo Studio. I am a mixing and mastering engineer, and I also run an audio review channel on platforms in China. Over the past few years, I have measured a vast number of audio devices, including headphones, speakers, audio interfaces, microphones, and more. By...

I know a fair deal about speakers, but not a lot about headphones. A buddy of mine just bought the HD560S and seems to really like them but says he notices they don’t get as loud as he expected. He is using an iPhone with a lightning dongle and normally uses Spotify but is currently trying out...

Selling a used pair of Fiio FH7 IEMs. These come in the original box with everything they shipped with from the manufacturer. I am the original owner, having purchased them new from Amazon September 2021. The included ear tips were not used, as I used aftermarket ones instead (SednaEarfit)...

Hello, recently with my band we created a small home studio in a little room. We are : 2 Guitars , 1 Bass, 1 Drummer. We play with amp sims and electronic drums, so it is not a very loud environment. The audio interface we are going to buy the next few days is this: Focusrite 18i20 3d Gen and...

These headphones are both around $80 and both seem to be recommended at this price point. I was wondering if you are an owner of JBL Tune 710BT or 1More Sonoflow what was your experience with either of the headsets? Did you enjoy the sound? And how was the durability of the headset? I am...

Hello, I am looking for a new set of headphones. My last headset was the PC37X. Unfortunately, the left channel on the PC37X no longer has sound (even bought a new cable and the issue persists). I am looking for a replacement headphone with good vocal clarity and a nice bass that is $400 or...

Very new to hi-fi, trying to make my first high end purchase. Let me explain what I mean by euphonic/musical. From what I understand based on my readings is, broadly speaking, on one end there is clinical, studio, reference, analytical headphones that are neutral and accurate in nature. These...

Hello, I'm trying to EQ my AKG headphones which I connect to my Focusrite Scarlett. Im using the interface to play guitar and I'm using ToneX as my amp sim. I wan't to EQ so I have a good base reference for dialing in a tone in ToneX and using IR's. But my headphones have like a 10db increase...

So after years of trying new headphones, headphone amps, DACs I think I am kind of stuck in the audio hobby. In August, I came back from a year-long non reading any reviews or trying new stuff. The amps and DACs are measuring great sounding the same, nothing new and special any more, but I got...

Hello everyone, hope you're well and listening to a lot of good music. I need some advice for production and mixing. At the moment, I own a pair of Bang & Olufsen H6 (I’ve had them for 10 years) and I use an Apogee Duet 2 as my audio interface. I’d like to upgrade, and I’m torn between getting...

After the most recent two threads I had opened, I didn't felt understood. Therefore, I try to be more vocal about what I want. Budget up to 6000 EUR Comfort must be gentle to the apex / fontanelle of my head. I love Velour. Must be light-weight. Must be over-ear. Cable must be flexible as much...

I've had an AKG K702 for 10 years approx. A gift for one of my decade based birthdays, which comes around again soon. The earpads had deteriorated, most likely cos of my own ineptitude. Anyway I ordered a replacement from Brainwavz, not realising they were based in Singapore. They were the...

Hello everyone! Long time lurker of this forum, but first time poster. I know this is probably one of the most usual (and probably boring, for most) topics around here, but it would be invaluable if you could help me decide on some headphones (plural) to buy. I have read extensively most of...

Hi, I need help with choosing the headphones as old ones died. So far my list is: 1. FiiO FT1 - 150$ - new one, I really like the looks 2. SRH840A - 150$ - seems like solid choice 3. Aeon RT - 500$ - A bump in price, but I have heard that it beats units over 1k$ What can is your opinion on...

Hi, Anyone tried adding cross talk to their headphones? I was curious so I tried this with my miniDSP SHD. I wish it also did the delayed summing. Inwas using the Yamaha C85 as a switch between Pure (Out1 and Out2) and Crosstalk(Out3 and Out4) PS: C85 is sweet.. it has a PEQ

Hi everyone, I am looking for a unified audio interface to drive my HD600 (requiring approximately 200mW at 300 Ohms / 8V RMS at 300 Ohms) and also be able to connect my electric guitar and speakers to it. I do not need microphone input. I was checking out the Topping DX5 and Schiit Magni but...

Hi guys, is there any headphones which is nicely matched channels? After looking into it a bit, I found that 'generally' Beyerdynamic and Shure do the job well, while Audio Technica and Akg don't.

Hello, I’m trying to figure out a path forward from my current setup and could use some advice. Currently I run Focal Elegias with Dekoni fenestrated pads powered by a Monolith 124459 (THX ASA 788). I EQ with Oratory’s recommended EQ via Peace, with some little tweaks for a bit more bass...
