Okay, I've searched google, searched multiple times on Head-Fi and I'm still unsure. I know that what sounds good to one person may sound not so pleasant to another, but I would just like to know, generally, how these two compare, or contrast. I currently own the AD700's as my first real...

Hey guys, I've been searching for DIY DAC's everywhere. I've searched the threads, checked google, but I can't find any that don't use SMT. Do affordable DIY DAC's even exist without SMT? I don't have that fine of a soldering iron and I'm just not equipped enough in general to work with SMT...

Hey guys, I'm looking for any websites or books that I'll be able to learn from relating to audio electronics. I ask because people list the BOM for projects, and I always see professional DIY'ers changing up the values of the components for more expensive, "better" components that they seem to...

My roommate thinks I'm a nutcase. I pour my milk into a bowl before I dump my cereal into it. Thats just the way I've always been doing it since I usually bring my cereal upstairs with me, I don't feel like bringing my liter of milk with me, so I just pour a certain amount and bring the cereal...

Opinions? I was looking into relatively cheap portable headphones for on campus use since my IEM's are kinda lacking. I really do want the ATH-ES7's, but its too pricey for me right now, I've already spent a couple hundred on headphones for home use, so now I need to just spend lightly on...

Does anybody know of a website that sells earphone tips for a wide variety of earphones? I'm specifically looking for some that will fit my J2's, but I can't even seem to find any compatible replacements for it on ebay or amazon.

Okay, so I have some logitech speakers hooked up to the sound card in my PC. On the volume/bass control unit there is a headphone output jack that I normally plug my headphones into. Would my listening experience with headphones benefit from plugging directly into the sound card, or does it not...

As the title says. I've thoroughly listened to all the songs this artist has, are there any other trance artists similar to them that I should listen to?

Hey guys, my dad has a PDA which needs repair (LCD screen needs replacement). I was wondering if any of you know any trust worthy sites that I can ship the PDA in to have repaired quickly. I've looked online and the only one that seems to be worth mentioning is PDASmart. Has anybody had any...

I currently own Senn's HD-280 Pro's, closed headphones, and I am satisfied with the SQ they produce, and I am going to be purchasing an open pair soon, probably AT's AD-700's, mainly for their comfort that everyone raves about. My question is, is the SQ produced by the AD-700's the same or...
