I guess then it's the KGST.

And, are you saying the pads and headband are subject to the second law of thermodynamics i.e. entropy?

Had a listen to the Oppo PM2 & PM3 today. Nice phones. Which would I pick? The Hifiman HE560. I really liked them. But, as usual, YMMV.

The AKG K1000

When I first heard Kris Kristofferson or Bob Dylan it didn't matter how good the system was,it still sounded flat and off key. I tried for years to make them sound good. The I realised that is just the way they sound. Good songs but not-so-good vocals.

Wrong choice. A rolex only makes a tick-tock monophonic sound. Your avatar name of "HeadphoneAddict" will have to be handed in or replaced with "TimeBomb" by sundown.

OK, so it's the guy with the bleeding ears has the 009mk3rev4batch2.

How could you differentiate them visually?

FTFY. True dat, even if they sometimes are brighter than your shirts, they still don't scream as bad as the Sony MDR-SA5000's do.

Apparently they have nearly opposite sound sigs. The MDR-Z7 has a mids suck-out with plenty bass whereas the CD3000 is just bright...

The can be had for circa $500.

Thanks.

Does this mean we'll soon have a review of the AKG K812?

If it wasn't for plankton we wouldn't have baleen whales.

There's nothing wrong with being a changstar pirate that a pre-frontal lobotomy or a visit to an audiologist couldn't fix.

As long as the hum harmonically enhances the music, enjoy it. If it doesn't, don't listen to those tracks.

or can you it?

Perhaps you need more time to adjust to real high fidelity sound. I used to love listening to live 5 piece jazz combos playing trad and dixie. The I'd go home and listen to my setup and look for the cues in the live performances that grabbed me. It certainly helped to lay down what real should sound like. Few people have really conxentrated on what things should sound like. People complain about pianos being too bright in the highs, That's what they sound like in real life. To use an analogy, some think that all sonic scenery should look like a lush Swiss mountain meadow on a bright sunny day. It's not like that in overcast conditions. This idea that just because it sounds good, it's hi-fi is a furphy. Hi-fi means great sounds great, good sounds good and rotten sounds rotten.

Get iBuds....

Happy birthday Marc.

More important, is that a book on saltine bread at the back. I can live without music, but I find I need food to continue my mortal existance on this celestial orb.

Sony has the new MDR-Z7.
