    Are my earphones blown? (Sony XBA-1)

    I've recently purchased a pair of Sony's XBA-1, after going through some reviews on them. Decent set given the price, very interesting sounding for a non-audiophile like myself. However, noticed some "problems" lately while listening to Alt-J's "An Awesome Wave". It seems that on a particular...

    How's black friday shopping, everyone? especially with earphone / headphone! :)

    I purchased a Sony XBA-1 from bestbuy for 30 bucks (34 with tax), and it was priced for $80 w/o tax. I bought it since it got big price cut, and wanted to try the sound of entry-level BA earphone. I own Westone 4, love it but too scared to use it everyday because it could break.  Although it...
