    Canada: Monster Turbine Pro Copper (Future Shop - Boxing Day)

    I figure since Canadians get screwed on a lot of headphone deals, some may want to know about this; Future Shop will be having a Boxing Day promotion online for the Turbine Pro Coppers at $99 on December 24th @ 8pm EST (as well as up to 70% off other headphones). As an employee of said company...

    Comply T-400 Review - Pillows For Your Ears!

    Comply T-400 Review       At my first Head-Fi meet, I had discussed with FallenAngel that, despite recently purchasing a pair of Sennheiser IE6s, I was about to dismiss IEMs as I couldn’t find a decent fit from the tips provided and experienced the same with other IEMs I had tried; he...

    REVIEW: Monster Turbine Pro Gold (w/ New Car Smell and Doughnuts!)

    Well, this has been quite the turn of events! I had auditioned a full-sized Monster headphone, which I felt rather negative about, but the Turbine Pro Gold (TPG from here on) caught me quite off guard. Overall, the TPGs are excellent sounding, have superior build quality to many earbuds and IEMs...

    New Years Resolution!

    What's your resolution this year?   I'm going to stop slacking off on taking my daily vitamins and lose a little weight... Maybe quit smoking, but I'm not exactly excited about that one, so it's an unofficial resolution, so don't quote me on that. Also, I suppose I should save a little more...

    Boxee Box or Google TV?

    Intel, that sexy company that they are, give salesfolk promotional deals and whatnot and are currently offering a Boxee Box, the Logitech Revue Google TV hub and the Sony NSZ-GT1 Blu-Ray/Google TV player... I can only get one and am currently in a toss up between the Boxee Box and the Sony GT1...

    Darth Beyers / R10s on CSI: New York!

    Yes, I watch CSI: New York.   On last week's episode they mentioned these "Yoneshiga C-5" headphones and flashed a little picture of them (below) which are obviously Darth Beyers. They describe the headphone as costing $6000, very rare, cups made from rare wood and mention a bio-cellulose...

    Irish Folk! (Classic and Rock)

    I'm a big fan of Irish folk, both newer rock/punk bands like The Pogues, Flogging Molly, The Tossers, Dropkick Murphys and mostly of the classic balladeers like The Dubliners (and each of their solo careers, with the exception of Patsy Watchorn), The Wolfetones, The Irish Brigade, Athenrye...

    Foobar2000 Issue

    I'm looking for a quick answer to resetting a Foobar option where I gave Foobar authority/priority over other audio programs and I have already searched Foobar options, control panel sound options, sound card options and have not found this option a second time. Basically any time I turn on...

    An Inquiry of the Tea Variety

    Good morning attractive people,   I am in need of a good pick-me-up in the morning and can't have coffee any more due to my gallstones. I hadn't had coffee in two years until a few weeks ago where I decided to try a cup, which had a negative impact of the toilet kind (being the reason why I...

    What's In Your Liquor Cabinet?

    I know we've had several discussions about liquors (whiskeys mostly) but it doesn't seem we've had any necessarily about what you have stored away for those special occasions! Feel free to add pictures as I'm sure some of you will have some gorgeous cabinets or rare bottles.   In mine:  ...

    Head-Fi Head Gear Database - Let's Get it Going!

    As most of you can see, the Head Gear database has a lot of headphones pre-loaded on it, but unfortunately not some of the more lesser known headphones and no vintage!   I'd like to have a nice database full of pictures, names, descriptions and, if possible, reviews for some vintage...

    EFFFFFFF... The death of a headphone.

    I believe my K601s blew/lost connection to their right driver. Put them on this afternoon and no response from that channel. HE-5 and SRH840s work out of both drivers... I just cried a little. In the past year, these guys have been my go to headphone for almost any genre out of love of the sound...

    Computer Experts, Lend Me Your Ears!

    ...Or considering this is in writing, lending me your eyes would probably be more effective. Anyhow, I'm in need on a nice shiny sexified computer case. My current one is a load of colon potatoes in both the cooling, loudness and build quality areas. It's a Thermaltake Strike. I'm aiming...

    FUNKY VINTAGE RETRO LIME GREEN GROOVY PADDED HEADPHONES on eBay.ca (item 360224026133 end time 17-Jan-10 03:20:35 EST) I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

    Pioneer SE-L40 Review [Update added 1/13/10]

    Being a fan of art, music and headphones, I decided to see if I could find a decent condition pair of SE-L40s for a reasonable price... At the same time I was looking, I saw two pairs go for $250 USD on eBay (on which I commented to myself "screw that noise!") but upon doing random searches on my...

    Need IEM gift advice!

    My brother is looking for a pair of IEMs for Christmas and has asked for the Monster Turbines; from what I understand, they're not terrible for under the $100 mark, but I'm curious if I could find him something better. I hate IEMs (comfort issue), so I'm useless for this. His music tastes...

    Audeze LCD-2 vs. HiFiMan HE-5

    There's the two official threads kicking around back and forth with two discussions asking the same question; "which is better?!" I figure this will simplify things for everyone. For those folks who recently went to the New York meet, please make some detailed comparisons between the two...

    The time has come! [Source advice]

    So I've decided that I will be upgrading my audio set up as a Christmas gift to myself. I made a similar thread in the amp forum with the current train of thought ending in an HiFiMan HE-5 ortho, but the amp is current up in the air as well as the source. My budget for the DAC is about...

    The time has come! [Amp advice]

    I've decided that my Christmas gift to myself will be a new audio set up. I'm looking into a more powerful amp than my Travagan's Red, as at the moment I'm considering picking up an HE-5. I'm aiming for around $500 USD (new or used), but that budget can be pushed if money is taken out of...

    Phillips SHP895 Stand -- Obtainable?

    After viewing MaZa's thread on the Philips SBCHP1000, I googled it and stumbled across this picture: That stand is sexy. I have no interest in the headphone at all and can't even find the two bundled on eBay. Past discussions on Head-Fi and other audio websites put the cost around $60 for...

    K1000: a direct upgrade to the K601?

    I love my K601s, but curiosity is an ever growing issue with me. The love I have for my K601s is pushing me to the point where I want to buy a second pair just to have as a backup in case mine break down at some point or if they go out of production. My question is if the K1000s are...
