i want one for my ipod. i can tell a great difference when i run them from my receiver and when i run them from my ipod. i was thinking a small amp would be good to get a little more power out of my ipod Quote:    

just in a few words what does the O2 do? im new to the audiophile thing  so dont know what all these things do Quote:    

this sounds really interesting, i looked up the O2 thing and from what i see it just looks like a circut board you make yourself? is that right? that would really only be used with a desktop amp not a portable one correct? Quote:    

Hey, i know this has been overdone but just a quick question ..i just got some ATH-M50s Anniversary edition. I will be running them out of my HP Envy Laptop and a little out of my ipod classic. Do you guys think i need an amp? Also most of the music will be hardcore but will be listening to...

also ..im really new to all of the hi fi stuff so i dont know about all the balance and all that im really just looking for something that will give some decent sound with an amp of no more than $120 for now    Quote:  

what would be a good enough amp to power them?   Quote:  

well i know thts the normal price for the m50s but i have no clue about the amp   Quote:    

below is the correction

so you would defienetly say the ath-m50s are better for my needs than the akg k240?   would this be a good deal?  http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-AKG-K240S-Pro-Studio-Headphones-with-FREE-Behringer-HA400-Micro-Amp-/251040285000?pt=DJ_Gear_Lighting&hash=item3a732ac148#ht_1696wt_1159   Or this...

ive also been looking at the ATH-M50s for a long time ...i say akg because i really like the look of them.

Hey ...just as the title says ...im looking for some good headphones im not really looking to go more than 250ish.   I will be using them mainly with my laptop HP Envy 15 if that needs to be said, and my ipod for music and tv/movies. My music is mostly hardcore with a bit of rap and...

Quote: the m50 on the audio insider is only 279...but for that price i can get a good stereo receiver and speakers and use it for a home theater system when i move into my own place....im 19 by the way not some 40 year old still living with my parents lol  

Quote: what would your opinion on using a home theater stereo receiver to power some polk audio II speakers? I would use a fiber optic cable to run from my computer the the receiver 

Hey guys just another quick question...my speakers are dying and i need a new set im not looking for a sub cause i have one so just the 2 main speakers is all ...I was really looking into Swan speakers but i couldnt find them anywhere...So if anyone could help me here it would be greatly...

Quote: i got the 215s ...thought this thread was dead then got an email lol...i really like them and am glad they are that cheap if you say they sound like 150 dollar ones  

Quote: so it really wouldnt be worth trying to find flac files instead of good mp3s? thanks guys really helped me out

Quote: i really can tell the difference between all my 128kbps files and 256-320kbps files the 128 is just terrible sound quality, i use shure 215's now im not saying they are amazing but they are good enough to be able to tell the difference  

hey guys im really really new here to all these different forms i use itunes and i always try and get the highest bit rate possible because i can really tell a difference. But ive been reading and FLAC has a bit rate of 600-700?? It seems like it would sound SOOO much better. How do i get music...

Quote: he sold them yesterday lol i posted i think im just gonna get the swan d108 and if theres not enough bass ill get a sub

Quote: sorry for changing up and all but what do you thnk about the klipsh promedia 2.1?

Quote: yeah i saw that ..i sit in the same spot all the time so sweet spot wouldnt matter...what do you think about the swan M-10?  

Quote: no your fine the more info the better i like reading on stuff like this as for the more i read and ask questions the more i learn so if you want do keep telling lol ..my brother has a sony sa-w2500 sub and i tried it on my comp it sounds really sick so maybe i should think of...

Hey guys im looking for some good computer speakers..perferably 2.1 or just 2 that have nice hard hitting bass and good mids and highs. They will be used mainly for music but some tv shows and movies. I dont really want to break the bank so i dont want to go over 200. I was looking at the...
