    how to stop a cube C30 from glitching?

    oh well, it's STILL doing it only maybe not as much as before as it only started blasting intros for a fraction of a second and only after a couple hours of bus riding. i wish i knew why it does that and how to fix it as it seems that other people's players don't do it.   it does work with...

    Sennheiser PX 360

    i KNEW there's be a catch when sennheiser recommended these and the HD 428-S i've yet to look up for portable use... they have abominable swivel cups! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGH! as an amputee, i despise swivel cups and even before that, i never liked grado one bit for that very reason but after trying HD...

    Shootout: 114 Portable Headphones Reviewed (Xiaomi Mi Headphones added 04/21/2015)

    the phones were actually the HD 25 SP II DJ versions, but i STILL stand by my contempt. $95 should not give a headache like dentist drills. my K44s do a much better job of disappearing overall at 1/2 the price. i've never heard phones that sounded so offensive in their EQ short of something that...

    New high end closed headphones

    why do you think skullcandy is so popular? a lot of people are more impressed by how shiny an object is than how well it actually performs. i saw those toy looking cans and had to believe the poster was making a joke. you never know though... i think skull candy has something similar though.

    Sennheiser HD-25 SP II for $95

    regarding B&H photo... agreed. i've bought a bunch of stuff from them and never had a problem and when i didn't like  the HD 25 SP IIs mistakenly thinking i was getting the studio HD 25s, they took them back without fuss. it doesn't hurt that they generally have the best prices either. that's...

    i can't help you on the one side cable front, but would bet that sony's top of the line megabass phones sound at least as good as beats if not better and at a fraction of the price. i'm trying to find cans that have full bass but that don't suck otherwise too.   i'm starting to think that...

    dr dre beats are for posers concerned more with showing off hip gear like the latest ipod than serious listening. all the reviews i've read for them by real audiophiles who've listened to quality gear from sennheiser, AKG, beyerdynamics & audiotechnica etc. laugh at them. they're just statements...

    Sennheiser HD-25 SP II for $95

    the SP II model SUCKS for anything but DJing maybe.   they have no bass even after 20 hours of high SPL dubstep break in and gave me headaches trying to listen to them for long stretches as they're so bright in the upper midrange & lower treble. i was furious when i bought them as they...

    Reply to review by 'zeroemission' on item 'Sennheiser HD 25 Studio Monitor Headphones'

    first off, i had the HD 25 SP IIs and not these. i wasn't aware there were two models so this review doesn't apply to the regular HD 25s. as to the dangerous, try putting a pair on with one hand and see how long you can go without poking an eye out or gouging your ear. they like to fight with...

    Reply to review by 'zeroemission' on item 'AKG K44'

    yes, i just checked, they were the HD 25-SP II versions designed for DJs. i only bought them because they were $94. i'm not going over $150 for anything, so i won't be getting the others, but i didn't like the tiny ear cups or swivels anyways. i wasn't aware that there were 2 versions. my cheap...

    i loved my Cowon U5, ESPECIALLY for playing WAVs and having the best user interface of anything else that i've owned, but now that that cheaper model has been dropped, i haven't been interested and prefer sansa's clip+ which has the best interface compared to the the clip zip & especially fuze+...

    Need help choosing a budget headphones for home recording.

    i like the sound of my K44s BETTER than the sound of the $200 sennheiser HD25s i bougt for a reduced price of $94 and ended up returning in favor of the K44s as the 44s have more bass and less brightness. i gave up on the HD25s after beating the crap out of them with 20 hours worth of "hear it...

    Review by 'zeroemission' on item 'AKG K44'

    i bought these to replace sennheiser HD25s i bought for a reduced $94 price and actually like the sound of these BETTER. they have deeper bass with less midrange brightness and aren't shabby in the detail department. their 2 greatest weaknesses are bass politeness and a little bit of treble...
