Ive heard good things about the apogee duet. Im currently looking for a similar dac.

Im looking for a good candidate for my dorm room. I've always liked the looks of the es7 and have heard good things about them. I know the shures are much more expensive but I was just wondering which was more comfortable and how much different the sound quality is. I have an amplifier and...

I ended up getting the Klipsch custom 3 when they were $160 on earphonesolutions.com. Plus the coupon code took off another 20 bucks. I haven't gotten them yet but Ive heard that the cords are somewhat flimsy. (though they cant be as bad as ety's) The do however have a flexible over ear thing...

Im not worried about gym usage... I would just like to know what IEM would give me the best sound quality and isolation for the price.

Hello all Ive been reading many of the past posts on this same topic but I still am not satisfied in my choice. My trusty er6i were stolen last week and I need a replacement. While I could just buy the er6i again I feel that I might as well upgrade. First of all the isolation of the er6i were...

Im looking for a headphone amplifier that has an optical input. Ive looked at a few products but i haven't seen one that allows two inputs to be mixed. The other input (besides optical) can be either optical or analog as it is coming from my desktop only for gaming and is the least important...

I dont need them to be portable. My AKG's are fine for that. Isolation and comfort are very big deals as well. I found a pair of Darthbeyer dt770 80ohm for a good price and also the a700 around the same. The hd280 are also tempting at thier low price point. Out of these three which do you guys...

I always cringe after every purchase because I know that it will add even more clutter to my desk with the addition of cables as well as the product. How do you guys deal with this. Anyone have a few pointers and products that will help for a minimalist desk. Pics are welcome.

Ive searched around a bit and im trying to decide between a few: The Sennheiser HD 25, ath a900, and a pair of darthbeyers whose model slips my mind at the minute (880 I think) What do you guys think about these choices? The headphones need to be able to be heard out of my macbook too...

i ended up getting a sansui power amp that my uncle had in storage i believe its from the early 80's. Its nice and warm but I'm afraid its not nicely detailed. I still need a DAC to go along with it. Any Ideas? Source would still be from optical out.

I like the er6i for for a little more clarity and isolation. The AKGs have good bass but are somewhat bloated. I love the comfort of the senns but the sound is a bit lackluster with muddy bass and harsh highs at times(not as noticeable coming from amp). I would say that closed is a must. Also...

Later this year I plan to move into a dorm at Mississippi State University ,having finally completed high school. What advice can you guys give me on picking a proper pair of headphones for this environment. My current headphones are as follows: ER6i, Shure Ec, AKG k26p, and Sennheiser eh2200...

First of all let me provide the things that will ultimately control my decision to buy. My budget it very limited at about $500. I need a new stereo receiver for my setup. I have two basic inputs : one coming from an airport express (toslink optical) and one coming from a sound card in my...
