    Comfort on Shure SH840?

    I have 'em as well as the 325is.  They feel a bit heavier but are more secure than the grados, at least for me.  I have no real comfort issues but they feel different in that you always know that you are wearing phones, whereas I find it easy to forget with the Grados.

    Difference between Microsoft Windows (Vista) volume control and FB2K's volume control

    Pots suck for the most part, even Blue Velvets.  I can always hear the channel imbalance and it pisses me off.  That's why on the M^3 I built I used relays that control matched resistors for volume control, and that is also why the new mobile amps don't use analog pots anymore.  Really they...

    Inexpensive USB dac + headphone amp

    I don't know why anyone would get something other than an E-MU 0204 or 0404 USB for under $200.

    AKG K550 - NEW!!

    This looks more like a Sony Z1000 competitor to me than anything else...and I'm still saving for a Z1000.

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    It's a nice update from both apps.  One thing I don't understand though is the new equalizer icon.  In the app store it looks beautiful.  Once installed it looks distinctly low-res, and not much like the app store icon.  Is there something wrong with my particular device?  I ask because there...

    AKG Q460 anyone have experience with them?

    Wow, the k81s are pretty tiny themselves.  I can't imagine how much smaller the 450/460s are.

    AKG Q460 anyone have experience with them?

    Quote: Well that's disappointing!  Thanks for the response.

    AKG Q460 anyone have experience with them?

    I'm confused by your post.  Are you saying that the Q460 are definitely inferior to the k81 $60 phones or much better than them?  In the review link that you posted both the K81DJ and the K430 scored a 7/10 for sound.

    AKG Q460 anyone have experience with them?

    More pics and impressions please.  I have listened to the k81s a bit, are these basically a repackaged version of those?  How are they on clarity?  I have fallen hard for their baby-headphone looks.

    Cute and decent phones under $100 (NOT for me, really)

    AKG Q460 in green. If you shop around they can be had for under $100.   http://www.amazon.com/AKG-Q460-Headphones-Quincy-Signature/dp/B004444O5A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1298520764&sr=8-3   They are sealed cute green little baby headphones that (supposedly) sound nice, have a...

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    Well I see your point. I have never used the ipod app itself very much. But I can do it in your competitor's app.  Maybe it's not something you have much control over.

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    Hmm   In my AddSongsPrompt, if I hit artists->Led Zeppelin I then see all of the albums Before entering a specific album (still at artists->Led Zeppelin) there is a button above all of the albums that says "Add All Songs".  This is on an iphone 4.  It will add all of the Led Zeppelin songs...

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    Oh, and since you are listening, while browsing the library the alphabet touch keys on the right side (in place of a scrollbar) are not available in equalizer.  Browsing a large library is more difficult without them.   Thanks again!

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    Hi,   Yes, if you add the albums individually, the songs are in the correct order.  However if you go to your library, and hit 'artists', then select an artist in which you have more than one album (most of them) the library view shows their album by order of release year.  If you were to...

    Quality EQ apps for ipod/iphone/ipad

    Hmm, well I have been using EQu for a bit and I like just about everything about it EXCEPT that when you want to really fine tune the waveforms it can be difficult, especially when to points are very close together.  Equalizer has solved this problem.  Equalizer is better for waveform creation...

    Improve iPod sound quality - EQu

    Quote: Your info on EQu is way out of date.  You can access your library through EQu just like the regular ipod app: playlist, artist, album, etc.    I also haven't experienced any crashing, but I have an iphone 4.

    Improve iPod sound quality - EQu

    Wow.  I cannot believe how much of a difference these make on my Yuins.  I pretty much hated them before today.  With EQu I was able to turn down that 9dB spike at 5200 Hz and bump the bass below 80 Hz up about 2-3 dB and these are freaking new phones.  They sound great.  Actually usuable now...

    Improve iPod sound quality - EQu

    I just purchased this yesterday, and I like the app very much.    I know this may be difficult to implement, but a built in sine-sweep 'test mode' would be great for fine tuning.    I have a couple on my iphone 4 but without being able to go forwards or backwards in a file it is difficult to...

    Shure SRH 940 impression and support thread

    I love my 840s.  My most used phones.  I will almost definitely be picking these up provided the discount is similar to what you get off of 840 MSRP.

    Closed headphones with great soundstage

    Or A700s if you need closed.  They have a very large soundstage that works well for gaming.

    What's your "reference" song?

    The Lemon Song by Led Zeppelin on Led Zeppelin II.  Good tonal range. PHD by The Crystal Method on Tweekend.  Really good for dynamics.

    Is the HD800 overpriced?

    Your saying an M3 is not enough to power the HD800?   Sennheiser's original demo was a DAC1.

    A700s are squeezing my head!

    The AD700s won't have as much bass impact as the A700s because they are open.  I had the opposite problem with my pair though, they were far to huge.  I had to bend the wires to make them tighter.

    ATH-M50, SRH840, or HFI-780 - If I were to pick one Right Now - electronica

    That's the first time I have read that M50s have a larger soundstage than SRH840s. One of the reasons I chose the 840s over the M50s was due to a more compressed soundstage on the M50s, but I have only sampled them once in a noisy environment.
