    Samson Rubicon R5A thoughts?

    Hi,   I'm looking for some new monitors and was going with the KRK Rokit 5 G2's, but then I saw the Rubicon R5A's and I cannot really find anything about them here (or anywhere else on the internet really).   They got a pretty good review in Futuremusic, although I do not have the actual...

    S:flo2 impressions thread

    Would the s:flo2 be a good pair with the Etymotic ER4P?   I've read some places that the er4's have an "analytical" sound.  Does the s:flo offer similar or a more natural sound?

    S:flo2 impressions thread

    I'm really interested in the S:Flo2 but after reading some pretty bad stuff about the interface and such, I'm a bit wary.   I play FLAC mostly (a little 320kpbs MP3 here and there).   I'm pretty much only interested in the SQ.   Can anyone sooth my worries?

    Earphones Newbie

    Hi, What do you mean by "deaf feeling"? Most everyone here oppose Bose, so steer clear of them, they're not the best quality. What's your price range?

    Amp3

    Hi, On this website, AMP3 Pro 2 hisoundaudio MP3 player PDAA - AMP3 mp3 Player/Amp - iPod iPhone and MP3 Players, it says it "Combining a Class A headphone amp". Does that mean that it comes with a built in amp, or it sounds better with an amp?

    Does my FLAC sound as it should?

    Hi guys, I'm going through the task of ripping my CD's to FLAC on a Mac in preparation of getting a Sansa Fuze (which won't take AAC iTunes files). How I do it is, I rip my CD on iTunes in a AIFF format, then convert it with FLACer, then put it into Songbird (I know that Songbird won't...

    Thanks oddity That is defiantly what my setup is going to be, but now I'm stuck between headphones. I see you have Grado's and I'm thinking about the SR225i's. Would those be good for a portable setup? If not, I'm going with the ER-4P's

    Etymotic ER-4P Comfort?

    Hi, I don't have the biggest ear canals, but not the very smallest. I have seen rave reviews about the Etymotic ER-4P's, but I am seriously doubting the comfort level. Comfort is a very big factor for me, so if these are not comfortable, I'd probably go for a different pair. Do these...

    So I guess this is turning into a LOD vs. Fuze + Amp for me now :/ I hate deciding :P

    The right earbuds to pleasure my ears

    Hi again, How about the Yuin PK1's or the OK1's? Based on another thread I made, the setup would be: Sansa Fuze -> Nuforce Icon Mobile -> Yuin PK1's/OK1's/Other IEM's

    When I'm listening to music, I'm usually just sitting down or walking, not a whole lot of activity. Is the Fuze still a good choice?

    Thanks for the response but, what's a LOD? Also, how about the Sansa Clip+ (I see you have the Clip in your signature)

    Review: Shure SE530

    Hi I don't know if this has been covered before in this thread (because it's a bit hard to search through 9 pages of posts :P ) but do these still sound as stellar as stated in the review without an amp? I'm really confused on the whole amp situation to begin with, and I don't know if the...
