I left my Turbines in a jacket, and they went through the wash - both washing and drying. (this actually happened a few months ago, just haven't been active for a while)... They actually still work, and I haven't noticed any horrific change in their sound or anything. What's the prognosis?

My set of ATH-M50 arrived today via UPS 2-day air. It was packed with the plastic air bags, but upon opening the box, I see that the box is somewhat squished in the right corner. The headphones are still intact- still in the plastic holder that was in the box, but there's a large crease on both...

Since my main rig's power supply blew up about a month ago, I've switched back to my old PC... and now that I'm actually using it for music with headphones on, I'm noticing buzzing and slight beeps when I'm using the computer... like if I minimize a window I'll hear a slight buzz or when I...

I recently got my Turbines, and I'm currently trying out some new tips... my friend has some lower end shures -110s or something and has a few extra tips... Basically I want to know if any of these are worth using... I have some generic grey silicones, and some black foam ones that have three...

I bought the Monster Turbines after weeks of deliberation, decided they were at the best price point in addition to them being available locally. However, I'm still unsure about a few things: Seal: How do I know I'm getting a proper seal aside from the finger snapping thing? On my right ear I...

I was just about to go through with this purchase D:... Think they will be back, or was the $150 sale just to clear inventory?

I have absolutely no answer to this question... While I of course enjoy there to be adequate bass present, I have no way of knowing if the amount I want is "basshead" material... which is where I'm stuck between choosing the Phonak PFEs vs the Sennheiser IE7... (apparently more bassy) Any way...

I feel bad for making so many threads about a 'mere' $200 purchase... I'm confused as to the difference between the M5 and Turbines, as both have been described as 'bassy' and 'lacking in treble'... And where does the PK1 fit into this, as it's in the same price category.

I know that devices with RockBox support the playback of these formats, but are there any other notable players?... Looking for something cheap

I decided I didn't need a new DAP, so I have some more I can put into a good set of IEMs... My music is almost entirely electronic, ie: Chiptunes to Electro...

After getting my JVC-RX700s a while back, I realized that this awesome setup was kind of hard to travel around with, even in my backpack, they were getting scratched up by the various gear I have... I find that these headphones are unsuitable for anything other than home or airplane use -.-"...

I tried listening to some audio clips to see if I could tell the difference between 128kbps and 256kbps audio... the weird thing was was that it was really difficult with my RX700s, they both sounded equally good/bad to me. However, with my Logitech X-230, the 256kbps clip was noticeably more...

I recently purchased a RX700, and while plugging it directly into the line out of my PC it sounded fine (for a non-burned in set of cans), though I noticed immediately that things would start to get scratchy sounding at higher volumes when plugged into my Ipod. I noticed this scratchy sound...

Hi, first post here Being exposed only to hideous stock earbuds and $1 PC speakers, I've decided I should invest in some respectable headphones. I recently (right now) am trying out a borrowed HD202... while I must say I notice a definite improvement in bass and harshness of sound as well as...
