    How many people use stereo/surround receivers with headphones?

    I just got an Onkyo S3400 5.1 surround sound system.  I didn't even think about using it for my headphones for over a month, and it blew me away when I did.  Sooooo much better than my Headroom Bithead (yeah, I know, not hard to do).  But it definitely made me believe in night and day...

    Turntable Help. Electrical issues.

    Hello.  I have a Technics SL-1500 direct drive turntable.  When it works, it works pretty decent.  But there's an issue with motor or something.  The speed is very inconsistent.  It speeds up and slows down at random.  I know a bit about electronics, and I know how to use a soldering iron.  I...

    What should I buy with $40?

    T-Amp at ThinkGeek

    ThinkGeek :: T-Amp Gen 2 Amplifier What do you guys think about this? I'm sure it's probably just someone throwing on an "audiophile quality!" label for marketing, but you never know, I guess.

    How much do headphones cost?

    Does anyone know how much headphones actually cost? I don't mean mean the MSRP or sale value or anything like that. I mean, how much do they cost to manufacture? People bash BOSE for using cheap materials, but charging a hell of a lot. But, I'm just going to take a guess and say that the...

    A few LOD questions

    Hey, I'm going to be getting an iPod Touch (1st gen). And I'm also getting a bithead amp from the headroom. I was wondering how much a LOD would make a difference, and does quality of the LOD make a huge difference? Would this one work just fine? DealExtreme: $3.65 3.5mm AV Adapter for...

    Bithead with ATH-M50, and AD700

    I currently own the Audio Technica AD700. And I'm (most likely) going to be purchasing the ATH-M50. I was wondering how well the Bithead amp from headphone.com pairs with these. I'll be using the DAC feature with my laptop, a lot, but also just the amping with my Sansa Clip and iPod Touch (1st...

    Hey, I just got the AudioTechnica ATH-AD700! They're my first good quality headphones. I had Skullcandy Lowriders before. Yeah, I know, I know, but I was young and stupid.

    AD700 on ipod with JUKEBOX

    Well, to start, I'm a 17 year old noob. I'm buying my first pair of quality headphones within a couple weeks. I pretty much have my mind set on the AD700. I know some people despise the quality of sound from the ipod, but that might be my main source. But I will have my ipod (nano 1st gen)...
