Hi guys, Does anyone know who in Cape Town can re-pin a balanced headphone cable? I basically need a cable I have that uses pins 2 and 4 to be changed to pins 1 and 3. If you know what I mean and can do this for me, pls reply here or PM me. Thanks.

Thanks. It's a rabbit hole indeed - but then so was my SS and headphone journey so far. Luckily I'm (just about) at endgame for my needs, so tubes are the last remaining curiosity. Should be visiting a friendly Woo WA3 soon - will post my findings here for the benefit of others with the same...

Hey guys, I'm keen to take the next step in my head-fi journey and learn what tube amps are all about. I have a fairly decent (endgame) SS setup with a pair of Audeze LCD-2F and ZMF Atticus headphones, and would like to know what, if anything, a good tube amp can bring to the party. As such I'm...

Hey guys, Not sure if this is the right forum to ask this in. Could anyone in the Cape Town area suggest the best/cheapest place to get flash memory - specifically microSD cards? Looking at higher capacities (128GB/200GB/256GB). If anyone has good condition seconds they want to sell, let me...

Hi - bought it on eBay for $60 and had it sent to me. Buying local is a pain in the a$$ if you know what I mean. Bought the headphones locally though. The other cool thing about the E3 is the double headphone jack, which means I can watch a movie with my wife or son and we can each use our own...

I have one (and an E5). Depends on the type of music you're into, the E3 is a handy little DAC. I've currently tried it with 3 different headphones - B&W P5 series 2, B&W P7 and V-Moda Crossfade Wireless (in wired mode). The VM take to it best, but probably because it's also the least resolving...

Hey guys, Long shot, but does anyone have a pair of Massdrop/Fostex X00 cans in CT? Would much appreciate a listen! PM me? Cheers, gLer

Hi folks, Does anyone here have experience with both the B&W P7 (wired) and P7 wireless headphones? The P7 Wireless is said to use memory foam in its earpads. The P7 (which I own) does not. I'd like to hear from anyone with experience with both of the P7W earpads are indeed more comfortable...

V-Modas were imported :) I'm currently using the V-Moda Crossfade Wireless and have an M-100 (as-new) and Wireless (brand new) for sale (check Xenithon's ad) if anyone wants a pair.

Hi guys, I've been doing a bit of  research on headphones that might give me something a little different to my everyday fave cans (V-Moda Crossfade Wireless) and all roads have led me to the NAD HP50. Does anyone have this headphone and could share impressions here? Also does anyone in the...

Thanks all - booked a full test at the Ear Institute in Claremont next week. Will post back here with feedback. Anyone else been to EI in Claremont?

Hi guys - anyone know of a decent clinic/audiologist/centre to get a hearing test done in CT without spending >R1000? Just want to get a handle on where my hearing's at and troubleshoot any issues while I'm still young enough to do so :) Thx in advance! gLer

Hi Chas - I have a pair of brand new V-Moda Crossfade wireless for sale within your budget. One of the best wireless cans around, especially for style-conscious teens (my 15 yo son has a pair and uses them for everything including music production). I use a pair myself. Only available in SA as...

Hi guys, my first day and first post :) Just wondering if anyone here has had the pleasure of testing/owning a set of Master & Dynamic headphones, and specifically the MH40 and MW60? Likewise, is anyone aware of a dealer/retailer stocking these headphones in the Cape Town area? Busy burning in...
