    hd-600's for computer audio

    I see you have the Klipsch Promedia 5.1s... Well if the headphone out on these speakers is similar to the Promedia 2.1s, when you plug in the HD600 and turn it to max volume you will probably blow out your ear drums and blow out the headphone drivers as well... Indeed in my setup, the...

    Headphones fatiguing?

    Quote: Originally posted by Magicthyse Oops sorry about the amp - I missed it. However after some burn in I've been listening to the HD600's and I'd say it's your material that's the issue - these are really fatiguing headphones to listen to MP3's on. I can make out artifacts quite...

    Headphones fatiguing?

    Tim D shivohum was throwing around a link in that thread about how 256 kbp - 320 kbps mp3s were inidistinguishable from WAVs... I personally cannot readily distinguish between CD and high bit rate mp3s on this system.. Wow it's suprising how many people missed this in my original post...

    Headphones fatiguing?

    I'm listening moderately loud... but not to an unreasonable level (I hope). The thing is if I listen quieter it doesn't sound as good The fatigue is even an issue with 256-320 kbps mp3s

    how detrimintal is an RCA to mini adapter to sound quality?

    Will the use of such an adapter to connect a normal interconnect to a mini jack degrade sound quality by a noticeable ammount? And more importantly, can it possibly introduce Radio interference on a shielded cable?

    Help! My Corda HA-1 is picking up the radio!

    Did the bolder RCA to mini completely solve the radio interference problems by itself (without needing to adjust the bandwith and stuff)? Is it shielded? Do you think the Kimber mini to RCA on headrooms site would get the job done? Quote: Originally posted by kelly The Game...

    Help! My Corda HA-1 is picking up the radio!

    Quote: Originally posted by kelly I ordered a Twisted Pair Design Game Junkie mini to RCA pair cabel to address this problem and for me, it did not. The Game Junkie had teflon connectors so I suspect the problem is that it just needs shielding on the cable itself. The sound was good...
