At 44 bucks i think i might snag em anyway and if i dont like em it was only 44 bucks....

or how does it match up against the Grado sr60i?

Beach Camera has the sennheiser HD 238 for $69 shipped and a $25 dollar rebate. Rebate lasts for the month of June.  This a decent deal for a first pair of cans? or rubbish?

would a Little Dot MK III power the 600 ohm version DT 990?

Head fi could make a killing offering divorce attorneys, can you virtually serve someone papers? hmm

its like giving your 16 year old a Maserati for his birthday

Quote: currently i use Blue Jean Cables in my set up (not hi-fi) and i'm thoroughly satisfied with them, they were pretty inexpensive for the level of durability and quality i perceive, but can a  $8000 per meter silver core cable really provide that much better of a connection? I'm sure...

Blue jean RCA/RCA for 1 foot came out to be $23, and MSA-1 RCA/18th headphone 4ft  was $27 plus $3 for shipping so $53 shipped, while monoprice xlr to rca were 4 a piece plus i ordered a set of RCA to RCA to compare for $2, shipped for $13 bucks.  we'll see if theres any big difference, if any...

Quote: I agree just received my first BJC today, very heavy duty feeling cables, even had a tough time trying to strip the casing off of an unterminated speaker wire, they are very stiff but well built. But more surprisingly i ordered these cables yesterday morning around 9AM and they...

Just received the Blue Jean Cables RCA to RCA LC-1  and MSA-1 2 RCA to 1/8th Stereo jack but haven't had a chance to do any audible listening to them yet (got home from class, had ten minutes to leave for work) XLR to RCA from Monoprice should be here within the next couple days.   But i...

All these post make me want to walk out onto a highway. just when i thought i was happy with audioengine 5's... damn.

In for one i suppose, dont know how these stack up against shure se110 but we'll see

Are these applicable to being a standalone music listener? considering they have a microphone attachment i would think the added price due to said function?

Well, i had no idea there was such a thing as an $8000 dollar per meter speaker wire (thecableco), so i went ahead and ordered from BJC, (total $71 for 4 cables)

I'm new to the headphone shenanigans and am also curious, own an MK III, listen to the same music so im about in the same boat as you. (except my daily headphones are shure se-110) so as you can see, i desperately need some new cans.

Quote: equally mixed reviews :(  guess il' try em both and see what i prefer

Quote: I chose the LD MK III because for one, the reviews have all been consistently good, two the customer service at little dot via david has been great so far, answering all my questions and leaving room for customization ( I requested a Blue LED light, that both items ship in the same...

Quote: Well the LD is on the way so maybe i can audition the pico for a direct comparison

Quote: where do you get your raw cable from?

Though i do agree in supporting quality work and US made products, is the sound quality degradation dramatic enough to notice a big difference?

how does the Pico stack up against the LD Dac-1?
