  @jaibautista - How to twist wires like that? I'm doing a car audio project and I want my wires to be twisted like that.

  @BlackSG5
  
  Unfortunately, I have no idea how to twist wires like those in my pic. I had my lowly earbud recabled by a local cable maker after I pulled the OEM cable too hard that I managed to open a gap (and expose the wires) near the plug. :(
  
  That said...I've seen pictures of cable makers using desk clamps (usually seen in carpentry shops) and pliers to twist them cables. For reference, the cables you see in the pic are UP-OCC, which are kind of stiff (and hence can't be twisted like your regular copper or Litz cables).

  Okay ang UM3x for vocals. For rock/metal...depends kung anong band pinakikinggan mo. I think it's fast enough naman to make listening to those genres more than tolerable. hehehe

  For some reason mas okay ang tunog ng monk sa itouch 5 kesa sony a35 kahit on ko pa clear + audio or ibahin settings or it is just me. Pero sa fidue a83 mas okay sa a35 pero turn off ang clear+

  Hello Guys,
  
  I'm here again to ask for your suggestions..
  
  I just acquired an SHP9500 and I plan to have this amped. Can you please help me with finding a budget portable amp that can also be used on a desktop ? Thanks !

• riddler on 09 Apr 17 @ 12:09 PM #

  ^ I have the SHP9500 too and don't find a need to amp it. Save your money and spend it somewhere else. :-P

  It's a very efficient headphone design. I have one too and it gets very loud regardless of the source.

• BlackSG5 on 09 Apr 17 @ 05:02 PM #

  Any circumaural headphone will benefit with some amping. Even the ATH-M50 will sound better when amped by a small Fiio E5.

  Back to regular programming with the Elear. :3
  
  
  

• jaibautista on 16 Apr 17 @ 02:18 AM #

  The Elear has finally met its match.
  
  Initial thoughts: Elear + D100 > Elear + D100 + Hugo + Duet
  
  There's just something with the D100 that brings out the best from the Elear. If you love the Elear's superior dynamic range and PRAaT, look no further.
  
  This actually throws a spanner on my upgrade plans. Lol

  OK ba Audio Technica ATH-A500X? May sale kasi sa megamall Apr28-May1, magiging 5.2k ang price nya. Mejo pasok na sa budget ko. Currently using Superlux HD668B. Thanks.

• aoitenshi on 01 May 17 @ 04:24 PM #

  @mdr1000x users,
  
  with no music on, may creaking noise ba kayo na naririnig while turning or bending your head sideways? more on creaks dun sa hinges nya.
  
  demoed one sa sony store and may naririnig kasi ako and not sure if it should be expected or not. thanks.

• majingotan on 02 May 17 @ 08:55 AM #

  @ aoitenshi
  
  Wala naman creaking noise yung sa akin. Meron lang yung mga noises ng pads kapag ginagalaw ko yung ulo ko. Hindi ko pa nababagsak yung headband so kung nabagsak na iyan baka mag-creak na

• matchachloe on 02 May 17 @ 10:27 AM #

  @aoitenshi
  
  common issue yan na nababasa ko sa mga 1000x users. Fortunately, yung sakin wala naman.

• jaibautista on 02 May 17 @ 07:48 PM #

  @aotenshi
  
  I don't think creaking will be an issue (if ever mang meron). You won't be rotating your head/craning your neck the entire time you're listening to music, would you? :3
  
  If anything, ang main issue ko with the MDR-1000x's ANC tech is hindi pa rin niya ma-attenuate yung wind noise when you walk outside or if you rotate your neck in a certain way while commuting, i.e., some sort of ambient noise is introduced inside the earcups. I think that's the current limitation of the ANC tech and something only future iterations of the MDR-1000x (and other BT ANC HPs) will solve.

• aoitenshi on 03 May 17 @ 09:36 AM #

  @maj, match, jai
  
  thanks sa replies. still debating kasi whether kukuha din ako or hindi. medyo malaki din kasi ang ulo ko and i think na-stretch ng husto yung headband kaya may creaking nung sinubukan ko. pero sa tingin nyo, would any creaking noise sa hinges be acceptable sa atin for rma if ever na meron?
