how do these compare to the DT-770 Pro 250 ohm   Ill probably be using it mainly hooked up to a laptop of some sort, mainly at work.   i use earbuds while walking about so portability is not all that important, but comfort and sound quality/fun sound signature is important.

c100b nothing fancy just have them sitting around w/o a desktop amp   figure i could use a an amp for the grado 325i too

Hi i'm looking for an all in one desktop amp.   currently i have an emu 0404 usb plugged into my mac as a dac (usb, should i use optical instead?) im looking to buy an amp to feed my grado 325i and some Energy Book shelf speakers (C100B) would anyone recommend any of these amps   Topping...

are those recommendation from experience? when looking into the porta pros, they don't appear to be headphones that would stay on your head while you're running/being active   and the sporta pros apparently don't sound nearly as good as the porta pros..   the dt235&jvc has400 look...

Looking for some decent headphones that can be used at the gym   can't be IEM's as my ears are sensitive and the sweat being pushed into my ear is the reason i'm now looking for non IEM   was considering the px100, but they've gone up in price the last time i checked, and even then i...

most excellent album.

wallet: DO NOT WANT! quiet you.

so bought a pair of grado sr-60's and really listened to them for the first time... thank goodness i still have my HD580's! grado's arent terrible but i guess 4 years of hearing all the hoopla about them i really do appreciate my HD580's that much more.

Where can they be had.. all of my prior ones have been torn due to regular wear and tear and id like to order a few of them.. hopefully at a good price I was at radio shack earlier and the regular cushions are like 5 bucks for a pack of four or 1.25 per and i figure i could of bought cheap...

broken west is care free fun

Angels Cubs WOrld series 08! as long as its not red sox and dodgers though i'll be content. just bought two ALCS tickets today game 1 and game 7! hope we get the homefield advantage.

very cool i prefer it to the one released w/ itunes however, the only main gripe i have with it is neither the iTunes 8 or magnetosphere support multi monitor still.. it keeps me amused

Hello head-fiers I plan to go flea market/thrift store shopping for a relatively cheap speaker option for my Desktop this weekend. I was going to go pick up my chaintech av-710 from a friend and from what i recall the line out on the sound card is mad decent. I'm trying to fund a relatively...

i dont know about certain tones but my 160gig class sometimes pauses/skips on certain tracks randomly. I can't renact the situation even if i tried to w/ the same tracks at the same moment.

kind of acid jazz/nu jazz or whatever (i dont really know but theres definatly a electronic influence) try: Little Dragon or Belleruche

what's the battery life?

I CARE ABOUT OXFORD COMMAS!

I've never soldered anything.. ever .. I dont even own a soldering iron. But i've always been really curious about making an amp/recabling my headphones so how should I approach my broken amp? The headphone port cracked and the slightest touch seems to change the sound so i'm assuming its not...
