Hiya, I thought about getting a pair of Etys, cause my wallet's actually big enough to get one , but the thing I'm worried about is that I'll only be listening to them mostly for 20-25 minute stretches at a time. Will Etys be practical to put in and take out repeatedly for those time periods...

Okay, okay, sorry in advance for the really lame question! But...how do you actually put the KSC-35s on? I just received my pair in the mail yesterday and I can't figure out how to wear them! Which side is left/right? How much of the ear do you actually clip? Does the headphone end up...

Hiya, I'm a really musically limited person, and I wanted to expand my musical horizons into classical music. So, I go about it by purchasing 1-2 classical CDs a week. But, I didn't know with what classical CDs to start. Could someone reccomend maybe 5-10 essential classical CDs to own? Thanks a...

Heya everyone again. =) From all the positive things everyone says about etymotics, I think I'm gonna splurge for one of them despite they're REAAALLY high price. Now, the only question is which to go for? The ER6 or the ER4P? I'm definitely not an audiophile... but of course, better sound would...

Hi, I recently got an iPod and...*gasp gasp* I've been using the earbuds that came with it! Anywaaaaay, I'm not really experienced in high-quality headphones but it sounds like good headphones really worth it. Might anyone have any reccomendations? Oh, not sure if this changes anything, but I...

So, after you go through the process of encoding your CDs into MP3s, which program is best for the actual playback of the MP3s on your computer? One program I've heard a lot about is Winamp; is this the best program to use, or no? Also, I've heard a little about a "MAD plugin" for...

I'm a bit new to this "high-quality" MP3 stuff. Previously, I was just using any old program to convert my CDs into MP3s. I was wondering if anyone could explain the "proper" way to encode a CD into MP3 files? Is it a one-step process (CD-into-MP3s) or is a two-step process...

Hi, I was looking for a very portable (something that could fit in a pocket), and the Koss KSC-35/50 caught my eye. I know the common consensus is that the KSC-35 have better sound...but the KSC-50 are only $16 ($15 + $1 tax at Circuit City), while the KSC-35 are $37 ($30 + $7 shipping at...

I recently bought an MP3 player and I've been searching hard for good earbuds to go with it. Could anyone reccomend some good earbuds? Preferably non-etymotic earbuds, they go too deep into the ears for my tastes.

I purchased a Rio Riot recently, and I was looking for some headphones to go with them. I wanted ultra-portable headphones so the Etymotic ER-6 caught my eye immediately. At a reasonable price, and many rave reviews, it looked great. However, Etymotic is not a very large company in the...

I just got my Rio Riot ($399 portable MP3 player with 20GB of memory) three days ago, and I'm guessing I should be upgrading the headphones that came with them? I don't have a set0 budget for them, and I can afford the semi-expensive models (like the ones around $150), but if possible, I'd like...
