    Minneapolis Meet 9/20/14

    Sorry -- meant quarter-inch plug, not RCA.

    Minneapolis Meet 9/20/14

    Bringing a CD player. Assuming we're running it through some sorta amp. I noticed that the front-panel jack for a headphone is for a miniplug and I don't think I've got a converter for an RCA anywhere around. Would run out and get one, but I'm assuming nobody wants to drive your 'phones from the...

    Minneapolis Meet 9/20/14

    Oh, geez. I'm getting my Asian stereotypes confused. I thought it was mainly the Japanese who took photos of everything.

    Happen to bring the Teac CD player. What's the deal with cost, etc?

    Minneapolis Meet 9/20/14

    Hi all:   I live in the Twin Cities (St. Paul) and would like to swing by. Only problem is that I have virtually nothing you'd want to hear. I could bring a decent CD player if that's of interest -- a new Teac CD-H750B.    I'm probably an outlier for you guys in that I'm mainly interested in...

    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    Quote:   Quote: I think I have an explanation for why we're getting different prices from the same site -- it's based on your location. Amazon is likely pricing items differently based on where a customer lives, which they can tell from a variety of ways. Obviously, they know if you...

    Quote:   Sorry not to mention the location of the deal in my post, Johnny Jumper. It had been referred to earlier in this thread, but that was a few days ago. As Shuggs noted, the deal was good through 12/31.

    Last chance to grab the MEElectronics A161P -- in stock, just ordered a pair for $65. As mentioned earlier, coupon code is AFTERXMAS. Shipping was only $3. Expires midnight Pacific Time, so as of this posting you've got three hours. Happy New Year, everybody!   (By the way, I posted in...

    Deal Alert: Audiofly AF56 for $30 (70% off)

    Cable is fine. About the same thickness as the Monoprice 8320, thicker than the Philips 3690s. But before we all get too carried away with these, here's an update on my initial impression. (Sorry to throw water on my own thread, guys, but full disclosure seems like it overrides other...

    Deal Alert: Audiofly AF56 for $30 (70% off)

    I think the "Vino" is, as the name implies, more of a dark red than a brown. Cool-looking. Totally nuts that one color costs $35, another costs $99. There's also a navy blue -- don't know the current price.   And yes, those 13mm drivers can move some air!

    Deal Alert: Audiofly AF56 for $30 (70% off)

    Wow. At this rate, in a couple of weeks they'll be PAYING US to take them off their hands.   Seriously, it's perplexing why they're discounting these relatively new IEs so heavily. It's up to 73% off now. Do they need to move a certain number of units to get more funding from their venture...

    Deal Alert: Audiofly AF56 for $30 (70% off)

    By the way, I was able to get Amazon to give me the lower price on these by calling them up and asking for it. Who knew?  I had purchased the AF56 for $46 about a week ago, saw that they dropped to $30, found a toll-free number on the site, and gave them all the details. They credited me the...

    Deal Alert: Audiofly AF56 for $30 (70% off)

    Hi all -- Not sure if I am posting in the right place, but you can snap up some Audiofly AF56 in-ears on Amazon for about $30 now (retail is $100) as long as you're okay with the "Vintage White" color. (I like it in that, with the brown ear tips and retro cord, it reminds me of a 1950s Fender...

    Good, cheap phones available in France?

    Hi -- a friend is in France and just broke his nice Sennheisers. They can be fixed, but as long as he's there I was thinking he might as well pick up some phones -- over-the-ear or otherwise -- that he can get more readily in France than the U.S. Do the French make anything that would be in the...

    NuForce NE-770X vs. MEElectronics M6 review

    After I lost my NuForce NE-7Ms about a year ago, I decided to try the MElectronics M6 because of the positive reviews and because I didn't want to lose another $50 set. I use them mainly at the gym. My gym bag is black, so having black-corded phones made it a little harder to check on whether I...
