Noticed that there hasn't been anything posted on the Audeze LCD-3 for some time now. The Fazor update was around 2014 or so, and there was a fair amount of press at the time that it improved the performance of the headphones. I picked up a set of LCD-3's last fall, and to me, they sounded pretty darn good overall. I found it a step up from a pair of Focal Elars that I was using. At this time, was using a Mjolnir Audio Dynalo amp to drive the Audeze LCD-3's. While I was happy with the sound overall, noticed that some recordings didn't have quite the clarity I was hoping for. So, when a deal to pick up a Mjolnir Audio Pure Bipolar for a really good pric…

?140 and rising for a set of Micro Seiki electrostatics. Some people are clearly mad. I can only hope that Bidder 5 is a shill to get the price up and that the seller ends up paying ending fees for Bidder 5s winning bid. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190172292479&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=009

Still looking for my perfect DAC......then stumbled to this headphones : Beyer DT48E.......everyone said its perfect for guitar, piano and vocal. And a pretty big part of my collection revolve around this genre (acoustic alchemy, jim brickman, jason mraz, susan wong, diana krall, david benoit, peter white, etc).....Guess what, I pull the trigger...... Someone here please console me (or flame me if you wish) that this purchase is not a fail. I'm an indecisive prick......and I hate myself........

that search function is really pad. it doesn't even narrow things down and will locate the terms even in common words... anyway. please address tonal balance, detail (and i mean detail as in detail...throught the range... not as in "oh noez! dis shit gotz lozta highz~!"), isolation, and comfort.

http://www.geocities.jp/mister_terch/zakki05aging124.html Like the guy who did these tests, I have no clue what to make of this. Kind of neat looking at all the waves though. The KH-K1000 is a Kenwood headphone, by the way.

Hi everyone. This is a long shot but maybe someone will be able to steer me in the right direction. I'm trying to make (or buy) a retrofit that lets me connect my David Clark (general aviation style) headset to our helicopter which accepts a military helmet. The jack on the helicopter is a 5 pole U-385/U (TJ-105 or M641/22-01) socket. It accepts a U-384/U (TP-105, M642/14-01) plug. The headset has a PJ-055B headphone plug and a PJ-068 mic plug. Pictures of those plugs can be found here: http://www.flyingshop.com/acrobat/Connectors.pdf. I haven't been able to dig up any information on what the helicopter outputs, but the David clark H10-20 specifications are readil…

Well, After upgrading my Denon 3910 with the SACDmod + adding few extra blackgates around the dac for good measure, and recabling my K701s with mogami quad, now my system is quite a bit brighter, mostly due to the recable. 909 thought something was off with the recabled K701s which are now fatiguing. Iron_Dreamer and I also thought the high freqs sounded fatiguing when listening to Tylls recabled (cardas) K701s at the So Cal meet. I dismissed it as bad cable (cardas), but now that my K701s have the same problem with the mogami, I think AKG used the cheap-ass wire they did, to tame the highs and cover up the deficiency in that area. Now my tinnitus is flairing…

I have had the oppritunity to audition these cans twice. Once unamped out of ipod and once with an iBasso P1. Was dissapointed both times. Knew I would be with them unamped. Not quite as dissapointed with them out of the P-1 but something was still lacking. Have since upgraded to AE-2 and was wondering if this amp would be more suited for them (no longer have cans avilable for auditioning). Have found a couple of really good deals on used ones (around 120 USD shipped). Not much to loose and could always resell if I didn't like results. Would be used mostly for Blues or older Rock (no metal).

Not quite sure where this belongs, so mods feel free to move this thread. So, me being me, I'm usually a little late to the party. I was in Best Buy today and came across the Boze frames, Bluetooth sunglasses. I listened to them and can really see a use for these when I'm away from home. The sound was certainly adequate for non critical listening, with the advantage of being able to hear voices, sirens etc... Does anyone own these? Would it be easy to adapt to Alexa? Are their better brands for the money? Style is somewhat important and I do like the rondo style, and the availability of accessory colored lenses, or even prescription lenses. Thoughts, impressions…

Hi all, First post here! Looking for a little advice. I'm in the market for two sets of headphones, one for while I'm on my motorcycle, and one for while I'm at the gym. I don't have a crazy budget, and I guess I'd like to keep each pair under the 80 dollar-ish range. That cash limit isn't SUPER strict, so I'll move around a little. I understand because of my other desires I'll be sacrificing some sound quality/build quality. I'll be connecting to a latest model iPhone, so bluetooth wireless needed for both sets. Audio controls on the set are a must (Not necessarily a mic though, if its a really good set.) Another major consideration: My ears are w…

Hi! I am looking to improve my system or just to buy new headphones. Right now i have this setup: Pc to DacMagic connected with USB or Xonar D2 PM connected to DacMAgic with optical/coaxial cable. And DacMagic connected to Darkvoice 336i. Headphones that i use the most are HD650. What i am looking is to upgrade my current setup or just to buy new headphones. I love my HD650. They are great. But i feel that they can improve and that are capable more than in this setup. First thing that i was looking at is new cable for them. Like Stefan AudioArt Equinox cable for them. But stoneaudio doesnt have them in stock and they are told me that they will be in s…

First of all, while typing this, I have a strange urge to jump out of the window while stabbing and choking myself at the same time. Why? Because I really think that I am not posting this in the correct sub-forum or even the right website. I browsed through this website and all the forums (the music one looks brilliant) and not only does the front page have a welcoming "I VOMIT ON GOD'S CHILD" on it ( ) but I also couldn`t see any similar request threads. So, yeah, here is my apology in case I am a complete douchebag. So, to the point. I am looking for some good headphones and by headphones I mean big ones like these, not little ones that go into your ears. Also: *…
