I'm having the exact same decision, but I really don't care about utility, I'm more looking to see if having a coiled cable will affect the sound quality at all, because if it does, I'd gladly give up conveniency of the coiled for the better sound. Is there any sonic difference between coiled...

Okay, so I've decided to lose the guitar practice part my requirements for phones, and now I plan to get cans only for use with my laptop and just get earplugs for music. I've decided on getting the ATH-M50 without a straight cable. My two questions are; will my laptop be able to put out good...

I'm back! Anyway, I read over the Grado's, but my only problem is that I've heard that they wouldn't be the best for classical, and would I be able to use them for guitar? They seem to have pretty low impedance and I've heard about the 1/8 rule of thumb, and I really have no idea as to what my...
