[quote user="zanon"]Does anyone know of CD mixed especially for headphone?Maybe two mics, 6 inches apart, is the correct way to record for such a playback system.[/quote] All of them. Zanon, most of the CD are mastered by electricians in headphones...

I asked Guy Hummel to put a headphones jack into my new unit. Guy put the jack, the switch that redirect signal to headphone or to the main output. It is so cool to have a headphone option – I have no idea why I did not ask him to do it before. In ad...

Once I've assumed my speakers system into this house won't ever be able to deliver what I wish to accomplish, I have kind of downgraded my exigences and I'm more and more listening to headphones. For the last few months I've been trying different hea...

Headphones shall not take to different direction. In fact it shall not be a lot of changes in sound when your take your headphones off and begin to listen your speakers. Speakers shall be MUCH more advised in imaging and spaceial department but good ...

I am inclined to think it has more to do with the dynamic impact of sound through space and pressing against your body, instead of just your ears. I have always felt Stravinsky to be a very physical experience.
And I do like the mono recordings...

Is it only me or there is something more in it? I generally like headphones but can’t stand some music in them. For instance Stravinsky is absolutely boring in headphones and his music much opens islet up while paying it without headphones. Is it has...

Hello Roman and friends,Here's a first post from me, to say hi and let you know why I've joined and perhaps ask a few questions...I'm building a pair of loudspeakers, with close to zero experience with loudspeaker building, hoping that the ...

I like them and use the quite extensively. As the comparing result between the headphones and the loudspeakers…. they are different. The best speakers sound-wide would do a similar result to what the headphones can do but the loudspeakers but will ha...

I can’t say that I like the headphones that people call “good.” I have heard a number of high-class phones, including the one that I was told cost over 5 thousands dollars and I was not impressed what I heard. Some people suggest the while I used tho...

http://www.webbtjanst.se/lenco/loudspeakers.asp shows some photos of unfinished horns. Comments on mouse-over.The 250Hz horns are probably not super optimal since I'm crossing over at, I think, around 1600Hz right now. Yes, the little horns...

Talking about the headphones amplifiers: Sugden HeadMaster.
I do not subscribe audio publication and buy them only if I’m mood to bitch about something. Occasionally I buy the British Hi-Fi+, which is kind of mandatory to buy living in the New Engla...

I have never experienced anything close to "excellent" sound in a car - even without the engine running.The reflections and resonances do not kill the music, but the presentation is really DEAD. The problem is how our hearing works. Reflections that ...

I used a set of 2-way near-field monitors and a decent sealed commercial subwoofer in a study room that was quite enjoyable. Mostly listened to FM. That room was not much more than 3m x 3m with lots of alcoves, slanted ceilings and a thick nylon rug....

As the life nowadays runs in a very different schedule then
it was years back I recently discovered a new invention of mankind – those little
headphones that can be connected to phone. God, they turn out make the commune

I have a local audio guy coming to my room recently and he hive
me an interesting feedback. He said that my playback sounds like a headphone. I
had years back, when I lived in Boston apartment somebody told the same things.
There is a point to com...

I don't know the 6336, but EL34 used correctly will sound like its driver tube, not to mention the comparative ease of PP scheming. Sure, you need the voltage; but this to me only underscores the low ESR angle. And who needs an inductor/transformer...

Jarek, congrats on getting a project to where you can listen to it! Are you planning to use this with headpones, or have you used it with headphones? I saw it is "limited" to 5V in, but perhaps enough overall gain with buffer for 'phones"? I realize ...

Ok, now see why the French cars, all of those Peugeots, Citroens and Renaults, are as bad as they are: because Jessie instead of working is listening his headphones. The media to play at work: would it be hard drive of CD player is irrelevant. I do p...

It is unquestionably an ambiguous project. The topmost question that I would ask myself after this project would be the following: can Milq-biased 6E5P to be as good (sound-wise) DC driver as some vintage direct heated tubes. I did ask thin question ...

Hi, SearcherOfBetterSound, welcome…
I like headphones a lot and being a software developer I been using them for years. I do not pursuit for “better” headphones then I have. In my past I did - was baying “better” headphones, was baying and building ...

Or at least after visiting this site for a bit, and "knowing" about you more, not too much, because I realize you are like "graveyard serious" about audio, heh heh.Anyways, yeah, the point from me was to try to get you or others to think more positiv...

These days I am traveling frequently and relegated to listening to music via headphones and "portable" sources. I will briefly post my brief journey as a personal log. It might provide a starting point for those who might find themselves in the same ...

As I promised, I am informing about the fate of the Baby Melquiades project. The Baby Melquiades was armed for few days with new 60H transformer. The result was not positive. It sounded OK but it was not even close to the Melquiades sound. I wa...

it's possible that the headphones can't handle the lower bass response and you're suffering some low bass distortion, maybe below 30Hz, coming from the own headphones.Rgrds...
