Spotify has now added tons of Pink Floyd!
Spotify just added a ton of Pink Floyd for premium users. I can confirm that it is in 320Kbps too. Unfortunately they only have the 2011 remastered editions of these albums, but so far they seem to sound pretty good. -
I'm going to get a Sansa Clip, what headphones (IEM's) should I get to go with it?
I'm looking at the new Sansa Clip Zip, (Not a fan of the name) and I was wondering what would be a good balanced pair of IEM's. I have been thinking about just using my (Big) AKG K240's, but I don't know if I want to walk around with a pair of full sized headphones. (I would love to see...- Markon101

Why don't more people use EQ to get the desired sound?
One thing I've noticed over my time here at head-fi is that, for the most part, no one ever says "Not enough bass? Use a little EQ." Why is this? I have been EQ-ing for a long time. ( I know that it can sometimes reduce the quality a bit)- Markon101

AKG K 702 reveiw (Tips welcome!)
At first, I didn't like them, but after some testing I've found what these are capable of! First of all, I started out by testing them out with a very wide range of music. I tested them with everything from Pop to Classical. They had an overall lack of bass and didn't give me much of a...- Markon101

What should I get in addition to my AKG K-240's
I'll start by saying, Head-fi is horrible for my wallet. I'm now looking at getting a second pair of headphones. I have a pair of K-240S, and I have a Fiio E9 amp. I've gotten "bored" of the K240s, (Great pair of cans though) what should I consider adding to my ever growing collection?- Markon101

The human ear's frequency response
I found an interesting web page showing the way our ears shape the sounds we hear. http://personal.cityu.edu.hk/~bsapplec/frequenc.htm EQ can be used to make up for those curves, most manufactures already pre calibrate there headphones to make up for this. For example, The...- Markon101

I just bought a pair of AKG-240 Studios and I am thinking of getting an amp
My Creative X-fi Titanium pumps enough volume, but would I notice any improvement getting an amp? I've been looking at the Fiio E9.- Markon101

I can't decide between these two headphones
I am looking at buying a pair of either Sony MDR-7056 OR a pair of AKG-240's. What should I get? I listen to a wide range of music, techno, rock, pop, county, classical, etc. I might invest in a headphone amp also.- Markon101

Should I get this amp for my new Sony-MDR 7056 cans?
I found this amp on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/ART-HeadAmp4-Channel-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B000M0TN6U/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top Would that help power some of the bass heavy parts of music? I've got a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium sound card.- Markon101
