I don't give a damn about the design, looks or the portability. Don't give a damn about isolation or sound cancelation. I found this damaged brand new dre dre for pretty much the same price as sr80i, Drivers and electronics are perfectly fine, just the headband is damaged, which I can replace...

   Cheap seems to be word of alienation around here, yet I still a cheap one. The matter is my outdoor environments are not quite gadget safe so I need something expendable.  and I don't expect a supreme quality. I'm looking for something nearly decent as my sansa clip+.   Linux support is...

Looking for a notebook, needs to be a as good as my sansa clip+ as a source. Other stuff is irrelavent. I couldn't care less about the other specs.

...I'm going to buy a sr80i, for which I saved up literally by eating less at lunch for a month. The store I'm buying have a pretty friendly returns policy, which makes me doubt. How can I be sure the cans I'm buying is not already bough, briefly used and returned by somebody else. Can I trust...

Hi, I'm looking for a book to get started with hi-fi. Did a forum search and an amazon search. The books I found wasn't what I was really looking, handbooks were too specialized and other books treated simple electrical laws like they were vodoo. I'm looking for something between, something...

Please don't make any linux vs mac/win comments as they are not in the same league.   Will a win7 machine with "Creative Sound Blaster Live SB Eax 5.1 VX" will produce sounds any better/worse than the linux with very same hardware?   Does music players matter?   Thanks

How can one hear the difference of flac and mp3 without even focusing? or hear the difference between mogami and stock cables? Just curious, I mean how can one acquire such a skill?

I need choose between these 4;   Sennheiser MX-170 -> 15 USD Koss KEB-4 -> 8 USD Koss Twinz -> 13 USD Sony MDR-E818LP -> 11 USD   These are the only ones I could find locally.   Which one would you suggest?   Need them for daily use, as my KSC75 sometimes make me look funny...
