Basically, I have a friend who isn't an audiophile and therefore doesn't really care about sound. However, they would greatly benefit from having custom shells as they are having a really hard time finding iems which are comfortable for them. So what is the cheapest way to get custom shells...

I am looking into making my first major foray into speakers and am looking into the JBL LS305 (or something similar such as the Rokit5, etc). What would be the best way to control the volume on that? Would the Schiit SYS work for my needs?

I am really hoping that someone can point me towards a comparison of the merits of ciems offer vs full sized cans and vice versa. I am considering getting a rather expensive upgrade at some point and am currently debating whether to go with the Alpha Dogs (don't really want opened) or something...

Does anyone currently have the HP10 and the HP150 for comparison? From what I have seen so far, there are varying opinions about the differences between them. I read one guy's review who said that the HP150 was closer to the HP200 in sound than the HP100, meaning that it was more spacious and...

I would like to be able to use my Etymotic HF3 with my PC (Windows 7), but that would require a splitter of some sort to separate the audio in and the mic outputs that are on the single plug of the HF3 (3 ring, smartphone 3.5mm connector, whatever it is called). The problem that I am seeing with...

Currently, he is the only one on hand with access to the HP150. We can't help it if we are a bit excited. Also, no one asked for a response within any amount of time. As far as I am concerned, he can answer these requests at his leisure. I just don't want to forget if I have a question, so I ask...

Could you post a picture of the drivers (removing the pads is easy enough to do with the design that the HP100 has at least) as well as a picture of the side of the pad so that we can get an idea of whether or not the pads are thicker than the HP100 and at least if the drivers appear to be the...

Done. Hopefully I get something nice. It would be a change of pace.

I would imagine that it has a large amount to do with the amping and what dac you are using with the HD800s. It also has to do with how used to each one you are. If you've had the speakers longer, then you are likely very used to hearing what it is they sound like and anything else is going to...

Honestly, from what I've read, the HP100 is looking like my best option. More input would be appreciated though.

I am looking for a pair of fullsized headphones. My main concern is accuracy and detail, but that doesn't mean that I want to listen to a tin can. Accurate bass means that it hits hard when needed, and doesn't show when it isn't needed. I want to make sure that that is true of the headphones...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ha.....hahaha.......... BAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Some of the timings on things like the cymbals and the xylophone are a bit off, but I notice that with tons of bands (even big name ones from time to time). My biggest gripe would be the breakdowns, but as you've said, that isn't something that you can phase out just yet. The guitarist's sound...

Just wanted to point out that page 666 is coming up. That is all.
