    Suggested new practice for reviews

    I wonder if it might be helpful for people reporting first-hand experience with a product to do so in a way that sets their posts off visually from non-review material.  So often, when looking for sound impressions on a product, it's easy to find threads dedicated to those products, but...

    Finally time to replace my Etymotics ER-4s

    They have served me well for about 10 years!  But at last one of the ear pieces is going in and out, so I'm going to replace them with another set of IEMs.  Here's what I want from the new set:   1) They must be universal-fit IEMs because my wife, a couple of friends, and I like to listen to...

    Make your DT 880 headband more comfortable VERY easily

    Some have experienced discomfort or 'scalp burn' where the headband rests at the top of the head. If you unbutton the leather, underneath you'll see what looks like a spacer between the two metal arcs. Slide this from the center to one side and the weight of the 'phone will no longer be so...

    Questions about Beyer DT 880 & Senn 595/600, & Bitheads

    I'm looking to upgrade my at-home computer listening system. This is where I do most of my listening. Right now I mainly have the sound from lossless wma's coming out of an Audigy 2zs into a Yamaha receiver with HD595's plugged into the headphone out. I'm almost satisfied with this setup when...

    Attn: spilner (and anyone else with the HD590 & up Senns)

    I noticed you have both the Sennheiser HD590 and the HD650. How would you compare the two? I recently got the 590's for $113 refurbished and am stunned. Previously I'd been an Ety man. Imagine my surpise when I get the 590's and they're not only better at conveying spatial information, but are...

    How could this discovery affect headphone design?

    Here's a VERY interesting article about the difference between left and right ears and the way sound coming from them is processed. What do you think might come of it? http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0910082553.htm

    Zen Xtra To Home Stereo?

    I know they don't have a line out, but is there a way to hook them up to a home stereo from the headphone jack and still have it sound decent? Thanks.

    Audio Technica, Sony, babies and peers

    I've seen a number of posts where people have said, more or less (and sometimes explicitly), that the A900's can be considered baby CD3000's. This has gotten me to wondering, would the A900's ($200) be comparable to one of the other Sony phones? How would you compare them to the Sony CD2000...

    Any HD Player Viable At 60 Gig Other Than Zen Xtra?

    I want a hd player with at least 60 gig. Is there any reason to look at something other than a Zen Xtra? I want good sound, too.
