Obviously there's one of these threads made per day, so sorry for posting another one.  But I feel like I have some fairly specific desires in an earbud / IEM.  Forgive me!   My two main priorities are, first, durability (I will be wearing these at night in bed, while commuting daily, while...

I mostly use my Sharp HP-MD33S earbuds but increasingly I find myself wanting full-size headphones. I listen to a wide variety of music (folk, rock, psychadelic, hip-hop) so I'd like to know what you guys think is the best all-around headphone for less than $100, taking into account sound...

I was curious whether these phones were in fact the same, as they look visually very similar. So I emailed Sennheiser support with the following message: Quote: Many of us over on www.head-fi.org are wondering: are the new CX300 series exactly the same as the Sennheiser IE4, the Creative...

OK. I have a stereo setup in my basement, with the "B" speakers located upstairs in my bedroom and connected via speaker wire run through the wall. What I want to do is still be able to hear music from the basement receiver in my bedroom, but also be able to input other devices in my room...

When I'm listening to my Sharp HP-MD33s, the left bud is a lot louder than the right bud. This is a problem that wasn't there when I first bought the buds - it just developed. Anyone had this problem? I have no idea what might have caused it, other than earwax somehow? I dunno. Anyway, I...

Recently I stumbled upon a set of Koss Pro/4AAA's that my dad has had for "30 years," he says. Anyone know anything about these? They sound pretty damn good for their age. I like them, but they're reaaaaally heavy. I think the earpads have deflated though, and I've emailed Koss to try and...

Is there a trick to it, or do you just push them straight in? I think I figured it out (I needed the small flanges), but I'm just wondering if there's any special way to push them in, twisting or anything.

I'm a noob to DIY audio, and I've just "finished" building my first CMOY. I don't have a multimeter, but I should be able to get one within a few days. The problem I'm having is that I'm not getting any sound from the CMOY, except when I turn the volume all the way up on the source. When I do...

I'm building a CMOY, starting tomorrow. I have a slight amount of electronics experience, but this will be my first venture into audio. As I also bought a pair of Sharp MD33s, I'm thinking: Why not have two output jacks on the amp, one for 3-pin, and one for 4-pin? I've found a 4-pin jack...

I do most of my listening on the bus. As such, my MX400s aren't cutting it. They simply don't isolate enough, and I can hear the bus motor over my music. I was looking into a pair of ATH-FC7, but it doesn't look like they isolate as much as I need. So, I'm looking into a pair of low-end...

Here's my prior experience: I was quite happy with my Koss PortaPro, but they got stolen, and I was beginning to look for a bit more of a "closed" device anyway. I was generously given a pair of Senn MX400 by terrymx, but they just don't have the bass I'm looking for. I also use the Senn PC150...

My Koss PortaPros got stolen about a month ago. As a student, they're pretty much at the upper end of my price range, and I was amazed at the quality for the price. After the theft of my PortaPros, I had to revert to the stock earbuds from my Creative Zen Xtra. Over the last month, I've fallen...
