    Standard Advice question.

    Just went on a wonderful vacation and when packing up at our second hotel I found my Sennheiser MM550-x headphones were gone.  Of course the first hotel did not find them.  While I have not fully unpacked and there is still a small chance of finding them I do not have much hope.  Now enough of...

    PXC 360 on the way

    Little excited to report I've got some Sennheiser PXC 360 headphones on the way right now.  Couldn't resist the deal.  Been debating between the geek factor of the Parrot Zik and the Sennheiser MM 550-x.  I was leaning towards the MM 550-x when I came across VMInnovations selling the...

    Is it safe to buy Sennheiser HD650s through Amazon from an non-authorized dealer?

    I agree about the reputation.  I was hesitant my first time purchasing from them (one reason why I use their buy.com store).  But I speak from personal experience I am 3 for 3 on purchases from them and my wife is ordering some headphones from them as we speak.    I would describe their...

    Is it safe to buy Sennheiser HD650s through Amazon from an non-authorized dealer?

    Oh I forgot to mention.  They have the HD650 (b-stock) for $326 on their buy.com store right now..     I don't work for them, I'm just a addict repeat customer who has been treated well in the past.

    Is it safe to buy Sennheiser HD650s through Amazon from an non-authorized dealer?

    If you are looking for that price point I would stick with Dakmart.  I prefer buying from their buy.com store for the extra security and it tells you what they actually have in stock.   Note:  if your getting a good deal from dakmart you are betting bstock.  bstock is refurbished.  ...

    poll/vote best price to performance style of headphone. IEM, buds, open, closed...

    This is a tough one for me to answer.  I prefer full size to on ear for comfort reasons but open, closed, IEM all have their place.    I prefer not to ride the bus with my full size cans so IEM is great.  In my basement I want (haven't gotten any yet) some full size open so that I can get...

    JVC's Micro HD Line: HA-FXD80/70/60

    Quote: Your comment about the D80 being an "open IEM".  Do they have the same side effect as an Open full size headphone?  I mean can everyone else hear what you are listing to and also as a result you get less isolation?  I am about to order a pair and I use a lot of public...

    JVC HA-FXT90 Thread

    Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that these are only available in japan.  Everywhere I have found selling them says they are shipping from japan.
