Source: my ears I don't understand. It seems like just last post you were saying that no one understands the phone's capabilities, but now you are citing a source for the capabilities for it. I can of course find contradictory articles, but it will just go back to your point of no one...

Except that it does. Maybe not to your ears, or not on your cans, but I can tell even on my $30 Kef M100 by simply volume matching without a proper a/b. You are right. No one knows exactly how it works, so I am not sure how there is a generalized conclusion floating around that Aux mode only...

I have been looking into this and the conclusion I have come to is no. There is simply no driver available to have it act as an audio device unless you write one. The closest would be doing a stream over wifi which will introduce some latency but probably OK unless you do competitive gaming. In...

Don't forget the hatsune miku sitting right on top of his desk. Some of you must have really good eyesight because I still don't see tomoyo and when I first saw Hayate I thought that's fmp and air lol wait did we just threadjack?

Well, my HP-910 broke so I'm still awaiting AD700 for replacement, and HJE900 is around my ears as we speak ES7 is on the very top so probably didn't make it into the pic

There's really not much full size options at that price point. Creative Aurvana Live! is said to be a rebadge of Denon D1001 and was around $40 when I bought mine. Other than that maybe some of the JVCs or low end Senns. If you look for something other than full sized though you should be able...

I vote for getting another 2 400mhz 1gb sticks. Most economical option and all matched up for dual channel mode. As a general rule of thumb the highest fsb supported by your processor is usually the one you want to buy. Though, to be honest, unless you are gaming or doing cad, anything over 2...

That's great to hear. I am currently also trying to decide between these and AD700 for my first open headphone. If possible, please post a comparison to the DX1 and update your impressions as they burn in! Glad you like them. A close save for your wallet

Technically, if no points remotely connected to certain beliefs were raised it wouldn't be a problem. As far as I saw, until some off-topicish questions were raised regarding one of my comments about infinity, the thread was simply discussing, "Is the unverse endless?"

no as in no cheaper alternative? or no don't buy a new mp3?

I have Creative Aurvana Live! which is said to use the same drivers as the D1001s. I prefer the sound of ES7 because it has a more controlled bass but usually end up wearing the CAL! because they are much more comfortable (about 1-2 hours before I have to take them off). It's a bit on the bassy...

I'm entertaining the thought of trying out one of these Philips HP-910; they LOOK like AD700s and is only at half the price point. If they're as comfortable as people are saying they are I might just buy these over AD700s (though I personally like the look of AD700 much better)

lol if they are unwilling to even buy refurbished with 1 year warranty I highly doubt they'd buy off eBay I heard good things about PX100 and those JVC ones on sale in Buy.com a few days ago. I also have a pair of JVC HA-G101, and while their sound quality is nowhere near anything above $40...

I think he means that just because you can hear 30kHz doesn't mean you can tell whether a flute apart from a violin or whether the sound is coming from the left or the right. Of course that's some vast exaggerations but it also applies to smaller things like guitar being out of tune...

If you have never heard any open headphones, then even if it is true it shouldn't really matter as you have no other frame of reference. What I mean is, all the full sized headphones I have heard thus far are closed. They sound perfectly fine to me; but then again, maybe open headphones do have...
