    Virtual Dynamics cable questions

    Im thinking about going with Virtual Dynamics for my interconnect, digital cable, and maybe power cords given all the rave reviews ive read. I would like to go all Nite but theyre way too big and heavy. So heres my question: If I go for the VDs (why is that still funny) how heavy and bendable...

    Grado SR225 prereview

    Picked me up some Grado SR225s about a month ago to use portably with my iPod but I havent gotten around to ordering a 1/4->1/8" adaptor (actually I havent been able to find one id really be happy with, I want nice wire and the 1/8th plug to be right angle) so its been hard to listen to them...

    Half successful Frankenstein Koss driver transplant!

    I was kinda bored and lookin around my room when I spotted some broken ksc50s (rubber ear clip parts broke off), some broken td61s (actually they worked fine but sounded like crap) and decided to try and make some closed kosses. I figured the good sounding ksc50 drivers (same as in portapros...

    brickwall power conditioner useful for automobile dc->ac power?

    I just read the thread on the Brickwall group buy and a bunch of reviews on this thing and it looks like the way to go if some sort of power conditioner is necessary. Is there any chance of needing a surge protector like this if my power source is a 12v dc battery from a car, converted into ac...

    bouncin around your tube amp...

    Ive decided that I want to take some time off (at least a year) before college to explore this crazy little planet of ours. Because of this all my plans (as of the last two weeks) to build a super pimp home system are shot to hell. But I could build a nice car-portable system to use while...

    convert iPod headphone out to line out?

    I was wondering if there is any way to swap out the iPods amp section for a line out? I heard that the same company that makes the current headphone out makes a similar 1/8" unit with a phone/line out combo...although just a line out wouldnt be so bad.

    Sennheiser HD477/HD497?

    Hey I was wondering if anyone had listened to either of these new (I guess) Senns. Ive never heard of them before and I happened accross them on the Senn site today. Theyre the HD477 and the HD497. They look nice and are priced reasonably (MSRP $60 and $70 respectively). They have different...

    iPod [inital thoughts]

    Got iPod yesterday. ****s hot. Still playing with it. No review now. Maybe later. Wish it had a bigger hd, maybe 10 or 20 gigs. Ripping cds takes too long. Mp3s sound like crap. HUGE difference between 128 and 192 k. 256 sounds nice but takes up lots of room. No vbr cause ipod dont jive with it...

    Beyerdynamic dt770 pro/dt990 pro/dt250-250 with PCDP?

    What up headphoners? I was thinkin about picking up a pair of Beyer dt250s-80 in the near future (need a nice pair of closed cans for the subway) because some people had posted comments about the beyers being more musical and less anylitical. The last thing alot of my cds need is to be analyzed...
