    Default One for you headphone users

    I'm not a big headphone user and have just an old ( repaired ) set of Superlux HD66B headphones . I saw this being talked about on another forum and decided to take a punt because it's really not a lot of money https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Bards...frcectupt=true
    It has been lying on the shelf for a few weeks and I decided to give it a try over the last few days . Well , IMO it has made the headphones infinitely more listeneable with what seems like a bigger soundstage and a smoother sound .
    I may even start using my headphones more Well worth a try at the price
    Regards
    Brian

    Aye bought one as well, haven’t tried it yet though.

On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    Me too! Im not really one for headphones but needs must for the foreseeable, so recently bought some beyerdynamic dt990s,studio version,they were £40 cheaper than standard same headphones bar the curly cable. They're very comfy and sound good to me, but a cheap tweak has to be worth a go. Any idea how it works Brian?

    No mate . I think the blurb on their Ebay listing explains a bit .

    It doesn't give much in the way of detail, anyhow I'm looking forward to it
