The AKG K270s are the classic, big huge studio headphones. There is little doubt if you see someone in these cans, they're tracking tasty licks on a new album. Despite their size, they do tend...

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

Bought these on whim, for your basic train ride to work I don't mind. But its far from being the best I have own.

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

First download the Wasapi Output from Foobars website.http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_wasapi
Then download the SOX Resampler from this website http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=67373
Once you have downloaded both DLL files, drag them into your Foobars directory COMPONENTS folder. Then restart foobar and from the preference menu, you can configure the outputs. To activate WASAPI, go to OUTPUT and select WASAPI from the device drop down menu. As for the SOX resampler, go to Playback -> DSP Manager. From there add the SOX sampler from the right to the left, from there you can also customize your own settings with sox.
After that, you should be all set, works really well, i'm using this combo as well. Hope this helps. Enjoy! 
Thanks! I got really confused because the SoX website gave me an executable installer that I had no idea what to do with.
Follow up: what are good settings these two?

no problem. WASAPI is stock settings, you dont have to do anything other than just selecting it and using it. Its to block off any external sounds/noises that might interfere with your player. Meaning once you have WASAPI activated, you can only listen to music from foobar and nothing else, such as watching youtube etc...
SOX settings im using
Target sample rate AT 96000hz
Quality - BEST
passband - 95%
Phase Response - 50% Linear
Basically these are stock settings i think.
