Open the case and check out the board versions.

It went on backorder pretty quick. I ordered mine the Friday evening when it still said 3-5 days, then when I checked my order status, I noticed the backorder update. I should have been faster on the trigger.

Angry Metal Guys website is a fantastic source for discovering new metal. Specially check out there best of the year articles where the various contributors offer up their Top 10s. https://www.angrymetalguy.com/ I have spent the better part of 2 years blowing through those lists (and riding...

I have ran Ygg -> MJ2 (pre-amp) -> Jot in an XLR chain to add some tube fun to my Q701s which are the only pair of headphones that I haven't balanced. It was an interesting experience and did help round out the brightness a bit. MJ2 is still obviously good in single-end out as well, but I...

Nope. I just manually plug the XLR cables into whatever amp is my flavor at the moment. A decent use case for an XLR SYS like solution, but I can survive as the stack is right next to my desk.

Just have to skip the sidegrading and keep three different amps and a collection of headphones to create the combo that best fits your mood. :)

555s were solid enough for the price. They were my portal drug into head-fi. I can think of a number of cans in the $100-200 price ranges I have liked better now that I have tried numerous other cans. The 555s are a damn good bang for the buck, but I will say that I perfer Beyerdynamic sound at...

Yeah they are opposite ends of the spectrum. I like the beyer 990s myself vs the 770s for rock, so you might want to consider them too. A bit more balanced sound in my opinion than the 770s. Do a search, you might find some good info

MS-2(i) used would be within your budget But, if you are looking for a more bright sound, maybe stick in the 225 or 325i area. I loved my MS-2s, they don't have as much bass as the 770s (the hf-1 comes the closest in the cans that I own to the sheer amount of bass), they do extend down and...

I would take a dt 990 over the dt 770 unless you need 1. isolation 2. deeper bass at the loss of some mids and all around sound As far as grados....well I love the RS-1 and HF-1 I just got, but until then the DT 990 has been my rock headphone Sorry to be off topic but I just wanted...

Add a bank account to your paypal account such as a checking or savings account and the money can be pulled directly from there. If you don't have enough from that, then you are out of luck. However it seems odd that you wouldn't jsut want to pay via credit card if that is where paypal was...

Perhaps find a way to close the account and recreate another? I have two accounts myself....one upgrades for CC funds and another standard account for non CC funds. It works great, but you need two bank accounts such as a savings and a checking or two checking accounts. Saves alot of trouble...

I can't believe no one has mentioned the Cowon Iaudio A2. http://cowonamerica.com/products/cowon/a2/ I have had this player since January and it has been great for listening to music as well as watching videos thanks to its relatively great codec support (divx, xvid). It has good native...

Having listened to all the Beyers extensively, (i do love the 880s, but they definitely aren't for anything that needs impact....) I would say go for the 990s. I compared the 770s and the 990s again last night and to my ears the 990s are a much better headphone is all aspects. Very unfatiguing...
