I joined this place in November of last year. I found it by googling the expectational yet inexpensive headphones I stumbled upon that day; The Pro35a's. Since then its been a whirlwind of buying, selling, discussion, pondering and most of all, listening. This place has been awesome and for the...

Last night I was listening to some vocal music at normal volume on my hd 280s when suddenly there was a loud ringing in left ear. It seemed to get worse as I took a shower and was still there this morning. Now I am sensitive to loud music, noises, anything. I never listen to music loud at all. I...

I am in the market for a new amp and these two are basically the same price. I will be using these at home with my new hd 280s and my hd 595s. A computer and sacd player will be the sources. My questions is which one is better for these applications and my headphones. Any reply would be awesome.

Right now I am listening to the Silent Hill 3 Soundtrack composed by Akira Yamaoka and I own all of the silent hill soundtracks. Its awesome, and the soundtrack for silent hill 2 is even better. Some rock parts, some piano, a little rock with vocals, some electronic beats, tons of creepy parts...

My govibe v5 has been dropped too many times. I am indeed a moron. However,lets look past that unforunate fact and join me in looking toward a brighter and more secure (litterally) future of headphone amps. First, my price range. $100-$150. If the avantages of up to $200 are significant, than...

I've been kinda at a loss as what to upgrade next in my collection for awhile and I thought that I was done.(Silly me, its never over). Last night I was listening to my radio shack pro35as rather than my v6s and I noticed that I really enjoyed the overall sound of the 35as more than my v6s. The...

Ive been around here for around 4 months and been looking at picking up a pair of stereo system for my computer/SACD player. Been looking at either a reciever and pair of bookselfs or a Promedia 2.1 system. Any suggestions.

I brought these without a serial number and I want to see if I can snap the driver back into place my self. So how would I remove the screen to access the driver? Any help would be appricated.

I was listening to my hd595s when I noticed something, the right side was much quiter than the left and seemed far away. From the left the drums had punch but from the right they didnt. This is the first time I have noticed this, and upon futher inspection it appears that (through looking at the...

I need a new PCDP, my current one has served me well for years but is falling apart. Been thinking about this one LINK Anyone else own this model?

I've been considering a $150 DAC, probably a Beresford, however for the money is it really worth it? Both my soundcard and my cd player have digital outputs, but I have heard that adding a $150 DAC to my CE-595 would be a waste of time. If I were to buy one it would be a few months down the road...

I wanted a new pair of headphones for light portable use and for use in my dorm when things get noisy. I have heard the hd 280s and they seem very good for movies and my gaming needs. Music is alright but nothing compared to my HD 595. They seemed rather weak with my CD player. I have heard...

I was fooling around with my new headphones and my amp today and was using my familys sony dvd player/vcr combo to play some cds. I was really suprised to find that it sounded better than my computer. (sb audigy z2) The music was more alive and there. With the soundcard it was lifeless, even...

Looking for headphone amp under $100 for use with my computer and hd 595s. I have heard good things about the go-vibe amp and the little dots.

I am currently in the market for a new soundcard and was wondering which would be the best or even if upgrading would be worth it at all. I am currently using a soundblaster audigy 2 to power my senniheiser hd 595s.

Which combination would sound better? A hundred dollar cd player and a go vibe amp or a creative labs xfi music soundcard and a go vibe amp?

I've been noticing a huge difference in sound whenever I change the speaker settings on my soundblaster audigy 2zs. First does anyone else notice this? and which setting is better to use? Thanks.

Is there a way that I can stop the 44hz to 48hz automatic sampling with my soundblaster?

My friend needs some new headphones for some amuature electronic music mixing on his mac laptop and general listing with his ipod. No in ear and he wants them to be sealed headphones under $100. I suggested the Sennheiser HD 280 http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-...&s=electronics link...

Two years ago I was given some bose triports, to me they sounded really great. Then about a month ago I found out about the backlash against bose that exists among headphone addicts. So, considering how much backlash exists against the bose, I considered trying to get a new pair. Pretty much my...
