    WTB: Fullsize for mobile use, circumaural, maybe semi-open, ~200€

    I use my HD25 underways and a K701 at home...The HD25 leaves something to be desired in comparison, even though I love it's lower bass and punchy presence.  Ideally I'd plug the new one straight in my Blackberry like I can with the HD25.   First of all I live in Europe, so: NO GRADOS! they're...

    IEM, ~200USD [Europe]

    Hi there...my CX500 died on me, it's time for upgrade/replacement.    Budget is 130€ top, that would be 200USD. Less would be fine, more impossible.  Desired sound would be (shamelessly plundered your glossary here)... imagine a cross of an HD25 and a K701, and then stuff both into an IEM...

    DAP: Sansa clip zip. clip+ or ???

    As I was rather unimpressed with the mediocre battery life on my old clip (which apparently is about to die on me anyways) and just got my tax return, the prospect of buying a new DAP is upon me.   One big thing is said battery-life: I want real (not manufacturer-********) ten hours...twelve...

    Arcam Delta Black Box DAC - any good?

    Hello, I have the chance to buy an "Arcam Delta Black Box" Dac for ~ $150 USD but as far as my research turned up, it´s pretty old (~ 1990). To buy or not to buy, that is the question. Alternatives would be buying Musical Fidelity´s V-DAC (EU for ~200€ / $300 USD) or getting an audio...

    looking for portable cans with BIG headstage

    Budget 100€, looking for a portable headphone that has a WIDE headstage. Possibly the sound from "outside your head". Does such a thing exist? I would drive it with an portable amp (Caffeine Ultra) and my trusty sansa Fuze. The AKG K81 goes in the right direction but a little less bass and a...

    [Seeking Advice]Stax SR-30 (EU Name: SR60): Comparison to modern Headphones?

    I have been searching for some good cans to use at home for some time now, in a price range up to 135€ ( ~150 USD). Now I have the opportunity to buy said Stax SR-60 (I think in the U.S. it was called the SR30) Elektret headphone for about 80€ (~110USD). I know it´s not one of the "big" Stax...
