Hello, I purchased an ATH-A700 and it should be arriving shortly. I plan to use it with my desktop computer. Do you think that an amp would be required or would be worth the cost for them?

Hello, I purchased a pair of DT770s last year around this time, and I've loved them. But a problem has recently sprung up. It's kind of hard for me to describe, but I can hear an underlying rattling sound when listening to music. It creates a sort of static-like noise that distorts the music...

Uhh...I'm only 18 and I have never noticed it. I'm going to listen for it, but I never realized TVs made this kind of sound.

Thanks!

I ripped a cd into .WAV files and I can't tell the difference between the CD and playing from my computer. Is there any reason I should want to use FLAC over .WAV?

Is Exact Audio Copy this E.A.C. I keep on hearing about?

I have a few CDS that I want to rip onto my CD in the best sound quality possible. The problem is I don't know where to begin, and don't really know what I'm doing. Does anyone have suggestions for good software, file formats, and ways to rip a CD so that I keep the sound quality intact?

I'm usualy around 12, but sometimes I'll get a half size lower or higher depending on the brand.

Yeah I would agree, however you never no how it can change on a day to day basis. Have you considered parking along Comm. Ave., and taking the train a few stops down from there? There is a stop on Newbury street at Arlington, Dartmouth, and Mass, Ave. Or you could just park at the...

I used Opera exclusively for a period of about 2 months. I liked the browser a lot. It looked and felt very clean, and it was fast. However, I started to use Firefox as my primary browser again for two reasons: 1. There is no extension capability in Opera. Although it has many features to begin...

Some of the topics on head-fi, mostly those talking about titinus/hearing loss, have gotten me thinking. On the 3rd of July I went to a rehearsal concert for the Boston Pops, which featured 3 songs by Aerosmith (Well, only Stephen Tyler and Joe Perry were there, but the Pops handled the...

You could get two of them, but that would cost far too much. http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Ipod_Na...uctions/Page_3

Have you played CS:S with the 770s? I got mine yesderday and in-game they were great without any burn in directly from my Audigy 2 ZS. I almost had a heart attack when I shot an awp. IMO their comfort is on par with the icemats. The pads on the ears seem to be similiar, and they are much...

Wow now the "5" looks so glamorous. They just looked like oddly positioned pictures before. I think I gotta get the right side of my brain looked at

My DT770/80s just came in the mail today, and i'm lovin them. I have to order a PA2V2, but even without an amp I'm having no problems. Music sound greats, and I'm going to game with them to see how they are.

There really isn't a "best way" to burn in a headphone, especially considering not all people beleive in the burn-in at all. Everyone has their own prefered technique.
