iPod + AlgoRhythm Solo Combo Question
Just wanted to sneak in and say thanks for all the contribution/ discussion on here! If anyone is interested in my response to all the kind suggestions... I've heard of Fostex's option as well for iDevices, but simply thought the former (iDevice + Solo) would be more "future-proof" and...- pearlfact

iPod + AlgoRhythm Solo Combo Question
From what I've read so far.. it seems that this (iPod + Solo) combo is essentially the best combination you could have for a portable gear. So I was wondering if disputes like Android vs. iPod/iPhone and Cowon's SQ vs. iPod SQ are even valid, because I'm guessing even Cowon or Android couldn't...- pearlfact

WAR OF THE PORTABLE HEADSETS (100-200 range) NO HOLDS BAR!!!!
You should go to Yong-San and check out the Headphoneshop store on the 2nd floor? I think.. you should probably be able to find every single one of these headphones for testing - unless you've done that already- pearlfact

Is there such a thing as product cycles for headphones?
I live in Vancouver, and yea definitely found some shops around here that I could venture, but the weather and school has been really putting me off of it 'll make sure I look into those meet-ups I could really use a friend who knows the world of audio (trying absorb all of head-fi's...- pearlfact

Is there such a thing as product cycles for headphones?
You know what Uncle Erik, i really really really really x100,000,000 should listen to these before I buy anything.. I fancy the K701 (so-far) for its classy-modern look they have, but the fact that I never had a listen to a descent set-up, makes me just clueless about what to expect.- pearlfact

Is there such a thing as product cycles for headphones?
I've been staring at an AKG K701 and telling myself "I want it, I want it.." but the more I go in-depth the more I feel like i'll be disappointed.. (plastic sounds, etc.) So since it's been a while like 4 years I believe.. will AKG release a new flagship soon? or do I need to consult to a lot of...- pearlfact

Short review of a AKG listening session, various headphones
Great Post! I was hesitant whether or not I should buy the K242HD as the sort of low tier (what an understatement!) carry around headphones, but this made clear that I won't be disappointed by it.- pearlfact

Is the "Head Gear" section a reliable source to rank gears?
Just like the title saids.. is it? If it is, it'll save me a lot of time trying to look up a decent affordable portable amp that sometimes isn't a big deal - at least compared to getting a full size which only work "just right" for only specific lines of headphones.- pearlfact

AKG K242 HD vs, ATH-ESW9A a fair game?
Wow thank you for such a clean, detailed and heart-full feedback.. I based the prices found on Amazon, it seems that ESW9A's are very under-priced and the K242 HD's are very over-priced according to what you've said,, shows how bad of a shopper i am haha- pearlfact

AKG K242 HD vs, ATH-ESW9A a fair game?
I looked all over the place for a mention of these two cans together side by side in a single thread but i found nothin. They're in the same price range, both have fantastic sound qualities, and except for the fact the K242 HD's are over-ear compared to ESW9A on-ear classification they seem...- pearlfact
