    Problem syncing tracks

    Why does my sony x walkman not sync tracks now? How do you fix the problem? It's happened before and I solved the problem pretty easily but I can't remember how. Does anyone have any suggestions or answers? It's annoying.

    Cowon S9 vs. J3

    They both sound good. I would get the J3 because of the 16Gig microsd card thing. How would you expect a newer Cowon model to sound worse? I heard the D2+ and didn't like the sound as much as the S9 (the preset eqs are better).

    Triple fi 10 are literally falling apart.

    Recently the sound was slightly dropping from my triple.fi pro 10's after not using them for a while. I got frustrated and ripped the cord out of the earpiece and it took out the internal wiring. I did not think to try to get a replacement, I threw them away, they were not my favourite anyway...

    'Vinyl' sounding IEM's...

    I want an expensive IEM that sounds exactly like the way Vinyl sounds. Vinyl is the best thing I have heard (I suppose I haven't heard DAT or SACD) but I like vinyl alot. Right now the closest thing I have that sounds 'vinyl' is the Sennheiser IE8... it's kind of like the headphone to use...

    terribly terribly disappointed with ultimate ears service.

    I loved the service I got from Ultimate Ears. The female assistant was appropriately nice and replaced my triple,fi pro 10 with new ones even though she asked me whether the problem was only with the cable at first. I liked it because it may have been my fault that there was a problem with it...

    I honestly can't decide...

    I buy stuff based on whether it has a special kind of attractive quality about it and usually the top model. If it goes together nicely as a package I buy it. Ipods have been my worst buying decision, but I guess they're bad because they're too mainstream... average people buy them.

    Sony X series vs. A series

    Wouldn't you want an 'X' -series type device. It is actually like that for me, it's thicker and it's black, and it's got a cool retro-type touchscreen and it's titled 'x-series'. I have 'x' type albums on there too and it all makes sense for me and it's cool. Stuff like:       I love...

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    I don't know, I'm just going by my image of the product and just how trash it sounds. If it sounds trash which is the main point of a DAP (sound) then I guess the rest of it is really just rubbish, or 'average' as well.

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    I think the ipod is a crap product because of it's metallic dull sound and simple design and colours and shapes - especially the useless hugely numbered apps. Why else would he say he loved this product if he wasn't one of those guys that I see buying ipods at their launch. I think it's stupid...

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    I was replying to the post before me which said 'I love ipods' - the same kind of thing as guys buying them at their launch date. It just makes no sense, why buy a crap product, cause you're in love with it? I love my RH1 and other stuff but it's not an average bad sounding product like ipods...

    What's your "reference" song?

    For the Etymotic 4p it was 'What time is love - extended live version', that was just a song that I thought sounded really valuable. For the Triple.fi pro it was 'What time is love - single version' which is strange, I guess I thought it was a jamming track to test the earphones out with. For...

    What is the purpose of using a headphone amp on an in-ear stage monitor (IEM)?

    It's not worth it (I don't like the extra bulkiness). I only use amps where necessary - on big headphones. If I only had IEMs then I wopuld use the amp for movies and stuff. I just use the IEMs for mp3 players and they're definitely loud enough.

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    When I watch people on the news buying ipods and iphones at their launch date I look down on them with a sense of humor....

    Need Your Advice - should I sell my iPod Classic and Arrow and buy a J3?

    What I think of the J3: these korean guys like to put all the best circuitry in and sell it for a cheap price (as well as the best design features). I suppose they're competitive. Not to mention the Eq's which actually make the sound better (normal sound is a bit weak though, you need to apply...

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    I suppose I'm different cause I was used to the sound of my NH1 hi-md minidisc player which I thought sounded remarkably good as I was listemning to it, then I thought wouldn't it be good if I stored all my songs on a 60G ipod. So I bought one later and recorded in the same 256K mode (but it was...

    Are iPods a no-go for audiophiles?

    screw yeah. Ipods sound are unbearable. I've had no such thing with the J3 or S9. They sound enjoyable.

    Name one MIchael Jackson song that makes your headphones Sing and why?

    Smooth criminal the single because it's a 'darkboy' track. Or 2000 Watts.

    Recharging adapter for the J3

    Is the DVE (DSA-51U-05 adapter suitable for charging the J3 as it is for the S9? I've used it twice and the battery life seems to have been lowered, but I could be wrong.... do I really have to charge this with the computer every time?

    UE 18's sound like UE triple.fi pro 10?

    Cause I don't really like the sound of those. Same as the JH 13's? I don't like the muffled fat sound of the triple.fi's, it's too much sound and it sounds cheap. I don't want that but this is the only company that makes these $1000 + earphones. I guess I need to stick with my shure se530.

    Sony MDR-SA5000 vs. AKG K 701/702

    The K701 has a cremier thicker sound. I like the SA5000 for gaming with it's sharper more exhilirating clear sound.

    Most Comfortable Headphones?

    Out of my headphones, the HD650 is and I love it for it. I can't stand pain and discomfort from headphones.

    the ultamate porteable media player......wishlist

    I'll just make one up - the 'TP3'. It'd be creme/white with TP3 in orange on the back. It'd sound extremely good and have a microsd slot up to 100Gigs., and a touchscreen. and a line out. that's all.

    Love the Shure SE535!

    The Shures don't really need an amp. I suppose you could use the Porda Corda portable amp which is the only amp I own and am very happy with (I use it to watch movies, it gives a better amplified sound.) I was blown away buy the shure 530 when I first heard it, I thought these are the ideal...
