    Crackling sound when inserting v-moda bass freqs

    Yep, starts when i push them in and stop when I let go as well. Thanks for link, will check them out although I've had the same experience as you so far, the phones seem to sound the same and don't actually seem to be damaged. As for what I think of them.. I haven't had them all that...

    Crackling sound when inserting v-moda bass freqs

    Bought a pair of these while on holiday, (couldnt resist, all that talk of this massive bass got me curious!) and when I insert them into my ears I hear a sort of crisp-packet crackling sound.. Is this normal and are the drivers getting damaged at all? I live in the UK so not sure if there...

    IEM/earphone version of Koss Portapros needed

    Hi guys, Basically looking for a earphone/IEM version of the Koss PortaPro's. I've been reading up a few reviews on the Sennheiser CX300, Panasonic HJE70, Sony EX90, Moda Vibe/Bass Freq etc but haven't really been able to decide yet. The Koss 'phones have enough bass for me to never have...

    PS2: MGS2:SOL, Splinter Cell or MGS2:Substance?

    I'll definitely get Splinter Cell and one of the MGS2's. Tough call between MGS's now :P £10 for SOL (2nd hand) or £32.99 for new Substance. Might have to toss a coin Nah.. I'll have to get Substance. I couldnt live with just SOL knowing that theres basically a better version in substance...

    PS2: MGS2:SOL, Splinter Cell or MGS2:Substance?

    Was reading that review, nanahachi and it appears that substance is just SOL except its got some more additions to it? I thought that they were two completely different games! Hm is it worth getting substance for the new stuff?

    PS2: MGS2:SOL, Splinter Cell or MGS2:Substance?

    andrzejpw: yeah thats what i heard, especially substance. kinda off-putting really. and a few of the ps2 magazines here in the uk have rated substance pretty poorly compared to SOL..

    It took me ages to locate a rear view and I only came across it by accident. Lucky I paused for that second! The lack of a digital OUT slightly put me off as I wouldnt be able to record to Minidisc which cant be good

    Trawlerman: I'm in Reading, Berkshire so quite far away Thanks for the offer tho And I was just wondering.. this may sound stupid but just curious. I have a Plextor CD-RW drive. I know this obviously wouldnt be anywhere near as good as a dedicated full size CDP but what would the sound be...

    Thanks for ALL the replies guys, you've been a great help. I've decided not to get the Sony DAVS550, simply because I am thinking of quality. I think its time I upgraded my hifi.. no, my stereo to a better system. It seems the DAVS550 does not have such a high fidelity sound (I didnt expect it...
