Found this code today while shopping for some new running headphones.  Works on the entire Monster site except outlet.     PureMonsterSoundCES2013   Its good for 40% off your entire purchase.  I got a pair of the new iSport Intensity for 60.00- they are normally $100.00.  Of course...

I have used iMacs for about 6 years.  I have always felt they make great vehicles for home audio listening.  I have about 1.3TB of music on a new 2 TB iMac 27in that I got in September.  Almost instantly I noticed how noisy it is compared to my other computers.  With any application going it...

These are available again, if anyone is looking to pick up a set.

        Unfortunately everything after August was somewhat down hill.  I still listen to this album regularly.

Thanks - I just got one.  Been looking for something like that.  I like the phones enough, but have not been happy with the included cables.  And as far as you know this should work with the Q460?

Where are people getting replacement cables?   Can you get different cables, then what comes with them?

I picked up the yellow K518LE this week on an impulse. It was under 50 bucks thru Amazon. As much as I do like the q460... the 518, esp with the foam removed is far better. Really a great set of portable phones.  Awesome isolation and SQ is about the best I have heard on a pr of HP I would...

Q460 is a nice phone.  The worst aspect is probably its ability to take phone calls.  Sounds like you are in a cave.  Not sure why a pair of headphones with superior sq to the ibuds would sound worse with voice calls.  With music they are very nice, a tad bottom heavy.  But for a treble head...

Remember they could change it for the better.

Right out of the box these are pretty good.  I'm gonna burn them in for a day or two but sound is even and crisp- not muddy like I was afraid of.

I took the plunge, should have the black ones sometime this week.  The only real undecided is the SQ.  I just hope the bass isn't overpowering.  I am more a treble head.  AKG def. did everything else right in my book as far as my wishlist on portable phones.  What I have been waiting for: One...

I've noticed that with the M6 too.  I think its just a matter of many retailers selling these highly discounted.

Like others I am struggling with the first 4 cuts, even after repeated listens they are not connecting.  The sonics are great, but not much to grab onto as far as melody.  The last 4 are great, but overall it makes for an uneven listen.

Anyone else with experience on these?

If nothing else I just wish bands would learn to master albums like Radiohead.  Even if you do not like the music they are one of the only bands out there using new technology to actually make the sound better.

I haven't been that impressed with EQu.  On my 3Gs it mostly causes the tracks to skip, which I am sure is partly to blame on the older hardware- but still if you are buying an app to improve sound and it skips, what is the point.  Works better on my iPad, but overall I think I just like the...

Quote: Your last sentence makes me laugh.  Mostly because you didn't listen to anything I said and then just put your own spin on it.  All I will add is that nothing was done randomly (EQing is a much more random practice), it was quite deliberate and I have used the setup for a couple...

I use one consistently with my Grados and Headroom Desktop Amp.  A much more robust sound and better bass.  If you are using a setup that has more than enough power for your HPs, I think a resistor (if decent quality) will mostly improve the sound.   I have also had success with the ER4Ps...

I've been using Klipsch gels on my Ety's.  For my ears they are the most comfortable way to listen to Ety's.

You could be wrapped up like Randy on "A Christmas Story" and still find the buttons.

Guess I will answer my own question, as the amount of views for this thread shows there is at least some curiosity in these HPs.  I got these in yesterday.  After a day of burn in which the s4 definitely needed, they have a much more laid back sound than what I am used to with the s4.  I know...

Curious what recent owners think of this new "rugged" version of the s4?  Same EXACT SQ?  And how are they for working out/ exercising and holding up to the outdoors like they are marketed.  I always liked the s4 so these have me intrigued if they do indeed live up to the new claims.   Not...

Yes, I would agree the original iPods did not have gapless.  But all the recent to include the 6th gen do and the classics going back a few generations all had it.    Crossfade is something I had not seen on an iPod since this version of the Nano, however I have not bought an iPod in a while due...

Gapless is something you do to your music from within iTunes.  If you have formatted the album to be gapless (I put the Mac specific directions above, although should be similar to a PC) in iTunes it will sync to the iPod in gapless.  It is not something you need to turn on within the iPod.

Jalo, without entering into a burn in debate- let the nano run thru your songs on shuffle for 24-48 hours.  You will hear a nice difference.  Basically it becomes less congested and opens up the nice clear sound Apple DAPs are known for these days.  If you want gapless just highlight all the...
