If you haven't already try resetting the device. To do this find a small paper clip and insert one end into the "Reset" port located in-between the 3.5mm Headphone port and SPDIF In port. My device suddenly decided to not turn on or charge, and after hitting the Reset, it works perfectly.

I'm listening to Weezer's Red Album at the moment. I've been getting heavily into Weezer's old material and decided to give the Red Album another spin to see what my opinion of it is after all these years in comparison to their older material.

Compact Discs are still a worthy investment. I find it crazy that people will pay almost the same money for 256 AAC album as they would a Compact Disc which offers superior sound quality and you can always convert the CD to any format you want onto your computer making it far more flexible. I...

Quote: Didn't you read the information on the Beats by Dre website? Beats "put back the quality lost in modern-day file compression. That means you’re really hearing music the way it was originally heard by the artist in the studio." So really he may have ripped 128 KBPS MP3 from Youtube...

Saw somebody on my Campus the other day with V-Moda LP2's or M100's. Very rare to see audiophile headphones out and about where I am at, it is normally just the usually suspects.

Hello Head-Fi,   My FiiO E17 arrived in the mail today and I just hooked it up to my computer and started playing music. Unfortunately I cannot get my 192kHz/24 Bit version of American Idiot to play on the device, which is connected via USB and 96kHz/24 Bit enabled. I understand that with...

The headband in the 840 is something I will never understand, the headband for the 440 is perfect in my opinion, and I have no idea why the just did not use that one. Where can I order the HD650 pad and how easy is it to do that mod?

People strongly dislike Beats for strong and logical reasons. I myself am more dissapointed with Beats than anything. We are talking about headphones endorsed by Dr. Dre, quite frankly one of the best Hip-Hop/Rap producers around. The man has years of experience with expensive and elaborate...

DVD and Blu-Ray players make excellent CD and SACD (though SACD is only supported by certain Blu-Ray players) players. I listened to CD's through my DVD player for ages with excellent results. At my home I have a Blu-Ray player connected to a Receiver via HDMI and the sound quality is far better...

Quote: Hell I would argue for many people, a $200-$300 pair of headphones and a $200 D.A.C./Amp would be all they need for end game.

Quote: Don't worry, there are plenty of decent headphones to find under $100. Just to name a few:   Closed: Shure SRH-440's (Might be too bass light for your taste) V-Moda Crossfade LP's     Note that I have ONLY tested the SRH-440's, all other suggestions are headphones that...
