radiohead fans: "morning bell" which album has the better version?
Kid A. IMO, this is a song that is much better live than in studio. -

Add another Grado fan to the list. These 225s are simply amazing. Only have about 20 hours on them so I can't wait to burn them in even more. Thanks for the recommendation! Now I just need to figure out this pc/sound card issue. Could it be a resource (3GB RAM) or a cordless mouse &...- matz2

Went to my local audio dealer and walked out of the store with the 225s. Will the uDAC help with the hiss and skipping I am hearing? I already own a NuForce Icon Mobile that apparently has a built in DAC. I must admit that I am a noob and don't know much about DACs, sound cards, amps...- matz2

You guys are killing my wallet....I'm now leaning towards the SR-225s. If I'm going to step it up with some premium cans, my biggest concern now is my sound card. Not sure what kind it is, but it came stock with my 7 year old PC. When listening to my digital files, I hear a lot of...- matz2

My questions still stand...anyone? I'm sure the 225s are very nice, but I'm not sure that my current set up can drive them well enough to justify the cost.- matz2

Thanks but the budget doesn't support the SR225. I don't even think my current set up would support the additional expense nor would i gain much benefit from the upgrade. Anyone else care to tackle my questions?- matz2

You guys have me convinced to purchase a set of Grado cans over the Sennheiser HD-555s. Here is some background information before I ask my questions: 1. They will be used mostly with an iPod and a nuforce icon moblie amp and PC (looking to upgrade my sound card). 2. Sources will...- matz2

Looking to Upgrade
Thanks for the response. Overall, I am satisfied with the ER-6i but would say that I am a bit disappointed with the lows. Having said that, I am not looking for something artificial as I don't want to sacrifice the overall quality.- matz2

Looking to Upgrade
Hi all, First time poster looking for some advice. I am by no means an audiophile, but I am an avid music collector/lover. I thought I had my search narrowed down until I stumbled across some suggestions by the board members. I am looking to upgrade my Etymotic ER-6i. I was debating between...- matz2
