    Looking for a device which I'm not sure exists

    My regular TV has a USB port.  The TV is hooked into my Tuner/Receiver.  I think this would work with a fairly new TV.

    Speaker Setup Suggestions

    After reading about the number of recommendations to use passive speakers with an amp instead of computer speakers, I decided to go into my unused equipment to try it out.  I pulled out my vintage Concept 7.5D receiver and my Axiom M22ti speakers.  I ran my line out from my computer to RCA...

    What are semi-open headphones?

    Could somebody please explain what semi-open headphones are? I understand that open means they leak sound or you can hear outside sounds while listening, and closed means they shut off sound and leaks. So what does semi-open headphones mean and can you give some examples of semi-open headphones?

    HD555 vs AD700...

    I was in the same boat as you a few weeks ago. I was ready to go with the HD555's but wanted to do a last final check on this forum. I changed my mind at the last minute and went with the AD700's. These are really outstanding. My only concern is that the AD700's are very large, but they are...

    Need suggestions

    Thanks for the suggestions. It was kind of a toss up between the HD555 and the AD700. I decided to go with the AD700 this time. Now the waiting begins.

I also have an xitel minilink USB adapter which I picked up for my laptop. I am currently using WinAmp with IZotope Ozone EQ. I also have Foobar...

    Need suggestions

    I am new at this so be patient. I find it is very difficult to select headphones because I will be making a purchase solely on recommendations. There’s not a dealer within a hundred miles of me where you can listen to headphones. Here’s my situation. Budget around 100 bucks. Strictly...

    HD555 confort question

    I am thinking about buying the HD555 headphones to use with my computer. I am currently using the PX100's and they work very well for me. The HD555's are circumaural and I wonder how comfortable they are for someone who wears glasses. Anyone here wear glasses while using the HD555's that can...

    Sennheiser PX 100 vs. Koss Porta Pro - The Ultimate Thread

    I like the PX100 better. I have the Sportapro version of the Koss and the earpiece keeps getting "knocked off." It snaps right back into place but it is a pita. The Koss is a little more bass heavy for me which I do not care for.

    Recommend 2.0 PC Speakers with Good Headphone Out

    I have a Logitech 2.1 system with a headphone jack in one of the speakers. It works very well. The volume control on the speaker also controls the headphones. Actually you don't even have to turn on the speakers to listen. It works just as good as plugging the headphones directly into the sound...
