    Klipsch S4 II-anybody actually seen or heard them yet?

    So the reason I ask is this, I had the original S4s which I used as my out and about phones in combination with my iPhone.   I know there is mixed feelings on them here, but i was quite pleased with them primarily for good (not great) sound quality, very good comfort and low bulk.  ...

    Sennheiser HD650 vs B&W P5

    I'm going to be  somewhat of a dissenter here based on personal preference    Comparing the two is more like comparing Peanut Butter and Jelly.  I have both and they are as different as could be.   The P5s best attribute is a warm personal sound that is great with folk music and acoustic...

    Amen Brother

    this is so dead on,   It's a shame that only a handful of people (like members here) care.     http://www.stereophile.com/content/deflavorizing-machine   The one point I's like to see addressed more though is the playback side of the equation.  Why is it that my iPod and cowon...

    bloc party- silent alarm- still a great album 4 years on

    So the GF and I were watching the show "whitney" tonight. Sucky show, but that's not the point.   They did one of those flashback things to when the characters met and the scenes were  mostly in a bar and the music playing was all Bloc Party including "this modern love" and "so here we are"...

    Vic Chesnutt "coward"

    Another good album is "little" made early on. Much lighter and more gentle with some humor.   I could kick myself for not seeing him live about 6 years ago when I had a chance.   Very talented guy

    Vic Chesnutt "coward"

    Talk about a harrowing piece of music. It's rare that such pain is captured with such eloquence.   It's the opener on his last (very good) album. I had not listened to it recently until I came across this live clip today. Anyone interested should check out more of music. "North Star...

    Sansa Clip Zip-anyone else got one yet?

    I have been on a trip and stupidly left my nano at home. Being a jogger and being gone for over a week, i needed some tunes.  I was in Best Buy and they were just putting them out. I picked up the 4GB for $50   A couple of observations. They have greatly expanded the codec support compared...

    one song you like by an artist you really don't like otherwise

    Good choices. I had a GF that was obsessed with Backstreet Boys.   I have another as well, Copa Cabana by Barry Manilow- He's total schlock, but you gotta sing along with that one

    Shure Se 315- pleasantly surprised all around-impressions a 535 light..

    I would not call the 535's mids forward per se. They do sound "rounder" than my coppers and etys but for a lot of music that i listen to (acoustic folk and jazz) that's a plus, That applies to the 315's as well.   But maybe different ears, different tastes. my main point is that the 315s'...

    Shure Se 315- pleasantly surprised all around-impressions a 535 light..

    Hi all. Just wanted to post my opinion on these phones since they are relatively new and not many seem to have them yet.   As a bit of back ground I am a long time Ety Er4 fan as well as shure e4 user. As I talked about here, I lost my e4s recently and ended up replacing them with both a...

    one song you like by an artist you really don't like otherwise

    This kind of goes with the idea of 'a great song is a great song regardless". My GF has seen the Chrysler 200 commercial with eminem's song and asked me which song that was because she liked it.   I'm not an eminem fan by any means and think he's mostly a d***. However I gotta say Lose...

    If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...

    The Ety E4's were my first serious phone purchase and are the only pair that i have kept for an extended period of time (bought them right after I joined head-fi) They are my home, serious listening, i want the highest detail phones.   They have by far the best isolation of the three main...
