You’re looking for a headphone amp are you? Preferably a portable headphone amp, am I right? Well I’m here to put forward the case for the excellent Go-vibe V5 headphones, recently acquired by yours truly.

Well not recently, it’s been a few months since I received it, and I have to say that I have been enjoying it.

The great headphone amp debate.

There seems to be a great debate among some headphone enthusiasts how effective or necessary a headphone amp really is, in today’s headphone society.

There seems to be two basic expectations that you might have when considering buying a headphone amp.

1) Some headphones have a high impedance (resistance, measured in Ohms), or in other words, headphones that are deemed “hard to drive.”

The famous Sennheiser HD650 headphones have an impedance of 300, which is very high. My Sennheiser HD25 headphones (the one I never talk about) have an impedance of 70, which doesn’t seem much, but is still a little concerning.

The Ultrasone icans have an impedance of 35 Ohms, whilst my very large Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones, have an impedance of 40 Ohms. Both are about your average impedance for headphones under £100.

2) Will it improve the sound quality and detail? And here’s where it gets confusing and here’s where the arguments often start.

It’s often considered that despite how high the quality of your components, the argument is that the headphone sockets (and relative components) are some what of an afterthought, therefore promoting the idea that some type of extra boost (headphone amp) is needed to give your headphones the best signal.

Adding an addition of a headphone amp, is adding another company’s interpretation of how the sound, ……should sound. From components to cables to headphone amps to headphones, every company has their own agenda.

Why the Go-Vibe V5?

Let me just ramp up a few considerations that you might be thinking of as well.

1) To increase the volume of the ipod / Ultrasone 750 combination, in the hope of getting some more volume, rather than sound quality.

2) I wanted to see if it would improve the sound. Are these reasons looking familiar to you so far?

3) To find out if the a headphone amp is needed for cheaper headphones like the Koss porta pro or sennheiser PX200.

4) Curiosity.

5) Budget; I didn’t want to spend too much until I was convinced.

6) The ability to change the battery easily, rather than having to unscrew the headphone amp.

7) Because I live in the UK, I know that the electric currents are different and I didn’t want to buy a power convertor yet, hence, I wanted to change the battery easily.

I read many positive reviews about them, unlike rival headphone amps at the same price.

To be fair, it’s the first headphone amp I’ve owned, but not the first I’ve tried. But, my biggest concern is that I wanted to use my Ultrasone 750 in the art studio. I think to ask a small (physically) device to power a huge pair of headphones like the Ultrasone, is silly. It’s like attaching a lawn mower engine into a hummer!

The ordering process!
I’ve put the ordering process in, with all communications I could find, because I was amazed by the whole process.

just to let you know that I received the amp last
saturday. although because of personal circumstances,
I haven’t open it yet.
thank you once again
Matt Scarlett

So the order took 5 days to come, including the time Norman was away from the office. That’s five days from America to the United Kingdom, that’s not bad!

Pictures of the grand opening.

Getting started

I only had a cheap 9V battery which had to do to start with. The first headphones a plugged in were the Ultrasone 750 headphones, via my imac, and the improvements were very noticeable. The bass although not as full was better defined and more tuneful and pleasant. You can hear the bass instead of just feeling it.

Yes, I’m a great believer in feeling bass, even from headphones, but when I played Ah-Ha the living daylights, it was a pleasant, new experience. Things are getting better.

Ultrasone and ipod shuffle 1G

But, the thing I notice most especially with the Ultrasone 750 and the ipod shuffle was the sheer volume that was now available. Now all my university colleagues can hear my music in the art studio, which is nice, because when you have a naked man or woman in front of you, that you have to draw for 5 1/2 hours; you need something to take your mind of it.

http://scarlettsart.wordpress.com/2007/04/01/life-drawing/

So how does it sound?

I’ll give you a very brief overview of some headphones and the effect the Go-Vibe V5 headphone amp has on each. As the Go-vibe is a portable amp, and the ipod was the main reason for the purchase, I’ll stick with the ipod Shuffle 1G for now.

Songs:

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake)

Erasure, Chorus

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm

Ultrasone Proline 750

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): A touch is added to the bottom end, but a slight edge is added to the top end, which is not entirely expected.

Erasure, Breath Of Life: The overall delivery is more full, although i don’t know if that benefits this song. the lower end has weight, but it’s the mids that are clean and better defined than without the Go-Vibe.

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: Clean and well defined, especial on the upper frequency’s. out of the three songs, this shows the best improvement. Brainstrom needs to be controlled, and the Go-vibes does the job well.

The tiny shuffle just can’t power these sufficiently despite the impedance figures. It’s asking too much of the ipod, and as explained this was the main reason for buying the Go-Vibe.

Sennheiser HD25

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): This is where the sheer bass weight is reeled in a touch and becomes a bit more bearable. Strange because I never felt that the HD25’s were that strong in the bass department.

The upper mid range get a bit more definition as well.

Erasure, Breath Of Life: Once again smooth but clear mids, but generally better defined.

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: Just takes enough edge off the track without spoiling it. Probably not as involving enough for some, but again it’s the upper mids that benefits.

Sennheiser PX200

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): a definite benefit to the warmth and delivery of the bass. I’m surprised at how much the V5 benefits the PX200’s, I really am.

Erasure, Breath Of Life: Wow, the Sennheiser’s really open up with the V5. If ever there was a song to show how good the V5 is, then Erasure and the PX200’s would be a cracking combination!

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: The PX200’s are taken to another level. In every way you can think of, the Go-Vibe shows it’s magic.

Sennheiser PX100

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): Surprisingly the Go-vibe needs to be pushed to get the best out of it. Not good for your ears, but at low volumes, it’s hard to make a good case for the V5 and the PX100. Remember here the Go-Vibe is nearly twice the price (depending on the deal) of the PX100.

Erasure, Breath Of Life: As above, but that’s not a bad thing on this track!

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: With this combination the Sennheiser’s benefit from a bit of taming, especially at the top end.

Sennheiser HD212

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): Bass was never lacking in the HD212’s, but here it might be a bit too overwhelming for some. I like my bass full fat, so the V5 puts a smile on my face. It’s up to you!

Erasure, Breath Of Life: the music is opened up nicely, just like on the PX200’s. The stronger (not deeper) bass is a nice bonus on this track.

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: No, is the answer. It just gives the track to much freedom. Sometimes it’s a good thing, but with I feel that this Arctic Monkeys needs a bit of taming. The Go-vibe opens it up a bit too much for my personal taste.

Koss Porta Pro

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): I’m trying to decide whether the V5 really works here I just think the Koss needs to be let loose, instead of being tamed.

Erasure, Breath Of Life:With this track the Koss really need the Go-Vibe. it opens up everything. Without the V5, this Erasure track sound very lifeless. Another surprise.

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: As long as you’ve got a good control on the volume, the Koss will benefit from the extra push.

AKG K27i

Timberland, Give It To Me (Feat. Nelly Furtado & Justin Timberlake): The bass becomes more tuneful rather than out-and-out boomy. This may take some of the magic away, but the Go-Vibes make it less fatiguing.

Erasure, Breath Of Life: Oh, yes, this is a definite improvement. The Bass is stronger in-fact the whole song comes together, instead of being in three badly separated pieces of music.

Arctic Monkeys, Brainstorm: Even at low levels this improves as well. the Go-vibe once again intuitively takes enough of the edge off to start enjoying the music.

Audio Technica ATH-ON3

I always make the mistake of listening to these after wearing something like the Ultrasone 750’s, so forgive me whilst I adjust for a few moments!

The Go-Vibe curbs much of the ATH’s enthusiasm, but for these particular headphones, I’m not sure that it’s a good thing. when it comes to the these little headphones, they need all the help they can get, bless ‘em.

Yes you’ll notice the difference, but only if you turn the volume up, then you’ll feel the influence of the Go-Vibe. If your a “low level” listener, then the Audio Technica’s could go without.

Conclusion from the test.

The words to best describe the Go-Vibe is, smooth yet powerful. Sometimes this can add to hearing the bass rather than feeling the bass. instead of getting peaks and troughs, especially in the mid and highs, the sound comes together more fluidly.

Sometimes I want the Go-Vibe to define the music a little better, but on other tracks, a little edge taken off is just what’s needed.

The big surprise for the Go-Vibe was the Sennheiser PX200 and the HD25 headphones. The PX200’s especially loved being plugged into the V5. There was a real noticeable improvement, which considering that you can get the PX200 for nearly half the price of the Go-Vibe, it took me by surprise.

I thought that sonically, the lesser priced headphones would show little increase in their performance, well, not enough to justify investing in the V5. You still might need to consult your conscience. For me it would still be a yes, regardless of the price difference between the PX200 and the Go-Vibe.

Should you buy one?

Oh absolutely, and regardless of a few negative comments on the net, it’s a matter of being with it than without. But until I get hold of similarly priced rival headphone amps, I just can’t give you a full comparison as to the best value.

Again, with that said, I’d rather be with my Go-Vibe V5 than with out it, and I would whole heartedly recommend you get one. and if you have a pair of anything around the Grado SR60 price range or above, I’d say it’s a must have, regardless of whether your headphones impedance.

ipod and the rest of the mp3 world, once again if you have headphones earphones or IEM’s that are above the average price, then this should be your next purchase.

Yes they’re here, just a day after i got my headphones form Japan.

With yesterdays article out of the way, I’d like to say a big thank-you to car audio and security. At least they the cheapest price in the UK for the AKG K27i headphones in the first place, and I never want you to pay full price for any headphones online.

I’ll get back to you with the full story later.

You won’t believe this!

Which do you think would be faster, if you lived in the UK like I do? A delivery from Japan or a delivery from the UK?

Last week I ordered two new pairs of headphones, the AKG K27i from caraudiosecurity.com, care of amazon.co.uk and the Audio Technica ATH-ON3 from audiocubes.com in Japan.

Guess which pair has just arrived first? I think you already know don’t you?

Well lets just say I’ve had the Audio Technica ATH-ON3 headphones on for a few minutes now, as I’m giving them a burn in. I’ve just finished Timbaland featuring Justin Timberlake & Nelly Furtado - Give It To Me - Single

So where’s the AKG K27i headphones? Your guess is as good as mine, but it’s just so laughable. An order from halfway across the world gets here quicker than an order from my own country, and the UK isn’t a vast country.

That’s a big thank-you to audiocubes, and that has strengthened my resolve. Oh I haven’t told you; this weekend I’m hoping to order the Stax SR-001 MK2 earphone system (headphones) from audiocubes.com.

I ordered the Audio Technica ATH-ON3 headphones to test the whole ordering process form audiocubes.com. I can report it’s A+, and I live in the UK!

To be truthful the Audio Technica ATH-ON3 was just a trial to see what the audiocubes service is like. To be fair it’s been nothing but first-rate, all the way. I’ve sent enquiry after enquiry, and they’ve answered every one promptly.

As for my fellow UK headphone enthusiasts, its full steam ahead for ordering from audiocubes.com. They have my full backing and confidence, and you should be more than willing to order from them.

You’ll make a fair saving depending on the headphones you choose, plus there are some headphones that aren’t available in the UK, so you can be a bit exclusive.

What about the Audio Technica’s?

Yep, they’re burning in nicely, I’m listening to Adam And the Ants

Thanks audiocubes.com and Stax SR-001 MK2 here we come!

If you want to start saving on headphones, then click the banner link below. You won’t be disappointed. I’m not!

I’d love to hear your comments on this story.

For anyone who nows a great deal about headphones, would have heard of audiocubes.com based in Japan. So why would you be looking at an audio website in Japan for? For great deals, for money, or the saving of.

Blessed with some of the most prestigious headphone manufacturer, stax headphones, these elite, class leading headphones are available for nearly half the price that you would pay for them in the UK.

So why haven’t I told you abut audiocubes before? Well at the least I’m a bit nervous about ordering abroad. If there’s a problem think about the hassle you’d have to go through to sort it out?

Another reason is that I want to bring you up to speed, and find out for you if audiocubes is a fast, reliable and safe way to save a huge amount of money on your next headphone purchase.

Currently the only other audio merchant outside the UK that I speak of is thomann.de, but hands up, I’m a bit nervous about thomann, and I’ve already written about that. Click here for more details.

So I’ve ordered a pair of Audio Technica ATH-ON3 headphones from audiocubes, to see how the whole process goes. More importantly, to find out how easy it is for you and me, to save a huge amount of money on headphones.

I think the Audio Technica ATH-ON3 look pretty funky. I chose ipod white, with the suspiciously looking, brown earpads.

Audio-Technica ATH-ON3 Casual Headphones

I’ll keep you posted.

I had a shock today when I visited iheadphones, to look at buying (another) pair of Grado SR60, when I notice a price change, and it wasn’t a slight change either.

With that said and as far as my search revealed, iheadphones still offer the cheapest price for the Grado SR60 headphones. Some shops offer a cheaper initial price, but once you add on postage, then it becomes more expensive than the saving you get form iheadphones.

Sorry about that. Maybe the price will come down further in the future. One can only hope.

For a great saving on the fantastic Grado SR60 headphones, click the banner link below and choose “Grado” in the menu bar.

The designers must have been having a bad day.

After rating what I feel are the five best looking headphones, I feel it only fair to point out what I think the first worst looking headphones are. Some of these headphones are superb performers i hasten to add, but on a design level, they are among the most offending performers. These are some of the most unblingiest designs in the headphone world.

The only problem with this is that some of these suggestions happen to be the most formidable, best sounding pieces of audio equipment in the audio world today. And don’t start quoting big figures from bizarre audio manufacturers because I’ve heard a £11,500 CD based system, a £55,000 turntable based system, and a Linn system costing £70,000 and I’d still go for a pair of stax any day.

1) DirectSound Extreme Isolation Headphones

Maybe I’m being a bit harsh on the DirectSound Extreme Isolation Headphones, but I’m trying to work out where we would actually wear our noise canceling headphones. On a plane, train, bus or some sort of public transport?

It’s not that I don’t believe in the capabilities of these headphones, not at all, and I wouldn’t mind having a go on these myself. But I’m not sure that I’d want to be seen out in public with these on.

As for it’s usefulness, I’m a believer, as for the design…..hum…..ha…….uh….I’d feel more comfortable wearing my Sennheiser HD25 headphones, which more than adequately block out the noise.

2) Custom IEM’s including future sonics and Westone

I have enough nightmares about alien invasion, without buying a pair of their headphones, thank-you very much. No disrespect to any aliens who want audiophile quality.

I have no doubt, these IEM’s are absolutely mind blowing in terms of sound quality, and the custom colours make them all the more funky, but I have no wish to wear headphones design for Jabba the Hutt.

Sound? yes. Design? No

“Princess Leia, save me from Jabba’s headphones!”

O.K. Design aside, I would secretly love a pair.

3) Electrostatic headphones……

.. do sound amazing, but look like Robocop’s rejects, they really do. From Koss to Stax, they just look like something from the dark ages. Again, they are at the top of the headphone world in terms of performance, but the design leaves a lot to be desired.

Of all the headphones available, I just wish someone in the electrostatic camp would say,

“O.K. people, let’s design a stunning pair of electrostatic headphones today.”

instead of,

“I found this piece of plastic in a skip, I got the wire from my wife’s bra, and I managed to retrieve this vinyl effect cloth from the seat of a 1976 vauxhall viva. Lets design a pair of headphones.”

Some of the designs are more palatable, like the Stax SR-001 MK2. As for the rest, they’re in a design world of their own.

However, anyone that knows me, knows that I would love to have any pair of electrostactic headphones. Not because they look good, but because they sound as ‘out of this world’, as they look unattractive.

4) Skullcandy headphones

Now I don’t really want to upset the design team at Skullcandy, but they seem to be trying abit to hard, if you know what I mean. I’m sure that Skullcandy has a target market for their products, but you have to ask yourself if you want to be a part of that market.

I think snow-boarder’s, and people who are into heavy rock music, know that there are better choices on the market. You’ll stand out from the crowd, but is that a good thing?

5) igrado

Oh dear, oh dear, it’s all gone wrong. I thought these were going to be stunners when I first heard that Grado was bringing out a new baby headphone. ‘Lovely’ I thought ‘with a traditional headband and using the same drivers from the amazing Grado SR60’s, these are going to be Sennheiser PX killers.’

How wrong I was. With a less than bearable neckband design, and with looks that please my grandmother, I’m afraid these have to be the most eagerly awaited, but the most disappointing headphones to date. Not in terms of sound, just in terms of finally seeing what I thought would be the perfect product.

They remind me of those headphones you get on the patient line thing, in hospital.

Sorry Grado, but the SR60’s are the ones for me.

Final Thoughts

Now again this article has nothing to do with sound, and on that level there are many that are at the top of their class. Not only that, there are some in this selection that I really dream of having, but the wife wants a new kitchen instead.

I’m brave enough to put my hand up and say, “I think looks are important.” Again, people in the audiophile world would probably scream and hurl abuse at me, for saying such things, but what’s wrong with wanting audio products to look good.

We want our homes to look nice, people spend thousands making their cars looking nice, why does audio have to be different? Is it beyond the reach of audio manufacturers to produce good looking products?

I’ve literally just got back from bringing my wife back from the hospital, and now I can see her walking upstairs to bed. With three slipped disc that was a heard thing to do.

Anyway because of more than frequent trips to the hospital, I’ve fallen behind on reports for you. There’s lots I need to get stuck into, so let me give you an idea of what’s coming up.

1) Quick but a full review of the lovely Go-Vibe headphone amp.

2) Koss porta pro review, possibly against the Sennheiser PX100 and PX200 headphones.

3) Review of my revived Sennheiser HD25 headphones, thanks to Brian at www.sennheiserspares.com

4) Themes week; will concentrate on you making a decision about your headphone needs and wants. Some hard questions will be asked, because I find that people want it all, and many of their headphone requests are……. not easy to resolve.

So in the next few weeks that’s what’s coming up, and of course some more great headphone prices. Thanks for your patience, meanwhile, if I can help you in any way, contact me by leaving a comment, and I’ll do my best to help you.

Announcement.

Listings for global merchants selling the Sennheiser HD414 replacement pads is now available at headphonedeals.org

In the years that I owned both the Grado SR60 and SR125 headphones, there was one aspect that I never got used to. That was the comfort, or the distinct lack of it.

Some may find it bearable, some said you get used to it, but they were as uncomfortable when I got rid of them, as when I first brought them.

Some suggestions have been made of how to improve the comfort, by bending the headband (which is metal) out a bit, to ease the pressure. Hands up, I never tried it, because it wasn’t the grip that was causing the problem; it was the ear-pad material.

As quoted by Billy Connolly, “This is wool, from round a sheeps ar+%$@?l. 50 pence a hundred weight.”

It not made out of wool, but I think you understand how I’m trying to describe it. It’s more like those green scouring pads, the ones you use for doing the washing up.

But, there is a simple remedy to this, and as far as I’m aware, this will work for most Grado headphones, but don’t quote me on that. The solution comes from the Sennheiser HD414 ear-pads.

There’s only one drawback which isn’t a big deal, but the HD414 ear-pads are yellow.

For my sennheiser spares, I go to……… sennheiserspares.com funnily enough.

I make no apology for repeating my love for certain headphones, and the Sennheiser HD25 headphones are on my ‘love list’.

Happily, I’m not alone in my appreciation for them, or for suggesting that they’re a great choice for both home and portable listening.

Unless stated, I try my hardest to find the best/cheapest price for you. Were I can this price will include P&P.

I will suggest Shop A on this occasion. Again, unless stated otherwise, I’ll continue to bring you the cheapest price I can.

On some posts you might see this star * that means i haven’t done a search.

Another thing to remember is that I’m an affiliate for some of the companies I promote on this blog. that means if you follow one of my links and make a purchase, I earn a small commission.

The commission can be anything from 1%- 10% depending on which merchant you buy from.
However with that said, I’m dedicated to promoting the cheapest prices, and some merchants have no affiliate program, but I feel that you need to be aware of the price regardless.

I enjoy earning money, but I would prefer to have your confidence and loyalty.

Happy headphoning! If indeed ‘headphoning’ is a word.

Again, whilst looking for some great headphone deals for you, the search engines were bringing up more and more prices that weren’t precise. Either too much or too little.

I saw the Sennheiser HD25 headphones being advertised at £50. Now, at that price you’d be mistaken for thinking it the lesser HD25 SP version, but no it was the HD25-1 version.

So in my delight of claiming a bargain for you (because I brought my Sennheiser HD25’s for £165) I eagerly clicked on the link, hoping to find the deal of the century, only to see the priced at £159.

Anyway here’s the best deal for the Sennheiser HD25

Final thoughts

So when you see a promising deal, be sure to click through anyway. Your chosen headphones may be cheaper than you first thought, or they could be more than three times the price!
