Hey I had no idea FF/REW went faster when song was paused . Sony trying to be a little sneaky there .   Also, I found out that sleep timer is actually not what I meant. I believe this feature turns the device off regardless of play/pause? I guess what I want is a power off timer, which sets...

(Originally posted on http://community.sony.com/)   I have been using the NWZ-A17 for a couple days now and although I am pretty satisfied with the player, I found it to be lacking certain features that would make it even better.   1. Album Shuffle As I have commented in another thread, it...

Not sure if mentioned already, but how well does the dynamic normalization feature work? Is it as effective as Replaygain?

  Then you should probably get a micro sd card that's a gal :)

Just received the Oyaide cables. After wrestling with them for a while, I got them installed and it's looking and sounding good. At first I didn't realize that the connectors had a "hot" side and a "cold" side so at first I tried to force them in the other way and then realized that it was the...

I ordered my Oyaide from eBay. The one you posted on Rakuten actually has a better price.

Hey guys don't feel so bad about being ripped off, I bought them for $200 on eBay and the day they arrived on my doorstep they went on sale at Bestbuy for $139 and then went further down to $119. $80 instantly went down the drain, but I'm still happy with the phones.   By the way, I received...

I also wouldn't agree in saying that the Amperior has good soundstage. Instead, I do believe that they have good sense of imaging and instrument separation.

  I think the Amperior also scales up pretty well with an amp. When comparing between the Amperior connected to my Ipod Classic and to my Fiio E10, sound is obviously better on the E10. When paired with the Ipod Classic, the sound is kind of congested and lacking depth. Or maybe the Ipod...

I just noticed that the following was mentioned in the Amperior's Amazon page: "Remember to let these headphones burn in – this will allow the headphones to relax into their sound signature." Is this an official statement from Sennheiser? I recently did a brief comparison between a used and a...

  Don't get your rationale behind that claim. It's not like Westone stopped carrying their entry-level custom models such as the ES10, 20, 30, 50, let alone their universal models. If you can't afford $5000 IEM's then simply buy the $100 IEM or whatever costing IEM that you can afford that is...

Just got the Cadence Cable. I'm not going to comment on any SQ improvements because I'm hardly a believer and I've only given it a brief listen, but I can definitely say that microphonics is worse than stock cable. Kinda regretting the purchase since I recently realized that stock cable makes...

Ah didn't think about that. Well I guess I'm gonna need that stupid clamp after all.   The cheapest I can currently find it is for ~10GBP incl. shipping+tax on http://customcans.co.uk/s/s/index.php/clamp-set-for-sennheiser-hd-25.html

They are 1.2m in length so I'm guessing it would be alright. I'll probably post some pics when I get them.

Second day of using the Amperior. Awesome for metal, although comfort is not that amazing (expected for on-ear I guess) and a bit more sub-bass would have been appreciated. I really couldn't see myself living with the flimsy stock cables so I ordered an Oyaide HPC-HD25 cable. I'm not sure on...
