    How is the Yuin PK1 at very low volumes?

    Because of my tinnitus I prefer to listen only to earbuds or clipons, and only at very low volumes. Right now my sources are an iPhone 3GS and a Sansa Fuze. My earbuds are Sennheiser MX760 which I love with the Fuze and like with the iPhone. But even on the quietest setting they are a bit too...

    Questions about putting FLAC files on my new Fuze

    Just got my Fuze today! I want to load it up with only FLAC files. I assume I can just drag-and-drop them into the player in Windows Explorer. Even though every file is properly tagged, I'd like to put them into folders for my own convenience. This way I can easily take albums on and off the...

    Is the WooAudio 3+ with HD650 too laid-back for rock/electronic?

    I'm considering buying the Woo 3+ and HD650's for use in a nightstand system. The music I like varies, but there's a lot of progressive rock (ex: Pink Floyd) and electronic/variants (ex: Shpongle, Portishead, Air). I've heard about the great symmetry between the 3+ and the 650's, but also it...

    How is the iPod 3G line out sound quality?

    I'm thinking about building a nightstand system for listening in bed. Gear I'm considering at present are the Head Direct EF1 hybrid amp and the Yuin OK1 earbuds. I listen mostly to classic rock, progressive rock, electronic, and psytrance. For a source, I have a 3G iPod. But I've never...

    Need help with Audioengine A5 speakers

    I helped my friend get better sound on his laptop system by talking him into buying the A5's. I hadn't heard them; this was based on reviews and forum posts. He had been listening on cheap Sony computer speakers, and also on a mid-fi mini-system. I promised him that the sound from the A5's would...

    Why can't they make the music sound like it's blasting from the sky?

    This is something I've been thinking about for a while. Let's say you were in the mountains, walking through a meadow. A perfect day, blue sky. Suddenly, you hear music, in perfect fidelity at high volume. It comes from the sky and the surrounding mountains. Like from impossibly huge speakers...

    How loud are the HD580s/HD600s to others in the room?

    Hi All, I'm looking for cans to listen to in bed while my wife sleeps. I'd like something detailed and laid-back that I can listen to at low volumes. Assuming a relatively low volume, how much will she be able to hear with either of these models if she's lying right next to me? Is one...

    My old Sony "Car Discman" PCDP any good??

    Hi All, I'm in the process of putting together a home/semi-portable headphone rig. I listen to rock, jazz, and classical. I plan to get the Ety 4P (or maybe 4S) as my cans. Right now I think I would like the Corda home amp, although I wish I had the $750 for one of the liquid-yet-detailed...
