Thanks for the help. My speakers claim to be "amplified" so I think I could get away with just having the phono preamp, straight to the speakers are in cooperation with the FiiO E11 I am buying.

Quote: Ok, that's what I'll plan on doing.   Thanks.

Quote: My speakers have built in amps. I am also purchasing a FiiO E11 for my phone + headphones. Would this also work as a small amp for the turntable or is to weak.

I started a new thread before I saw this, but I figured I'd post my question here also.     I recently found a B&O Beogram RX Turntable while digging through my basement. I'm trying to figure out the simplest and cheapest way to hook it up to my Advent AV570 Speakers, and my Beyerdynamic...

Hi, I recently found a B&O Beogram RX Turntable while digging through my basement. I'm trying to figure out the simplest and cheapest way to hook it up to my Advent AV570 Speakers, and my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro Headphones. I have found a couple things online, such as...

Ok, so I have a pair of Turtle Beach PX5's that I use with my Xbox, but I am going to sell it, because frankly I don't play Xbox enough to justify having a $250 headset. I would like to use my beyer dynamic DT770 pro's the same way Astro's are used, by connecting them to a mixamp then using a...

Sorry, this may sound like a dumb question, but does the e10 have to be plugged in to use it, or does it have a battery, or run off my iDevice's battery.

I know there has been multiple threads like this, but I couldn't find any solid answers. I have Beyer DT770 Pro 250 ohms in the mail coming to me now. I would like to buy a portable amp for them, and I would like it to be under $150. I have looked at the NuForce Icon for $129, the PA2v2, FiiO...

I switched them back and forth but they seem to be lacking something, very muffled sounding.

Quote: I think they are in backwards, I will go swap them and then come back and let you know.  

Hooked em up, they sound good. One question though, I'm bot sure if I got the plus or minus right because they are no markings for it, would it work if I got them wrong, because they work anyway.

Quote: I'm such a rookie at this, what do I put on the ends of the wires? I have some banana clips I think and then I have pin connectors. Do i put each wire in it's own connector?

UPDATE: I found the adapter, but the end of the cable is exposed with Red, Black, Green, and White cables. How do I get this ready for use? what do I need to do?

        Can someone tell me a little bit about these? If they are any good or not. They have a 5 Pronged cable and I don't know what I can plug that into. They are my Dad's from back in the day, so I'm guessing they're from the mid 80's but I could be wrong. Any information on these...

Quote: I am thinking in the future I might pick up some SR60i's since all I here around here is Grado praise, and they are relatively cheap. But first I want something closed because it is more practical for me.   Quote: I noticed in your signature that you have the 80 and...

SRH940 is too expensive, and the 840 looks uncomfortable to me. Are the Beyer's not very rock oriented?

I've pretty much decided on the Beyer's. I will probably also get a FiiO E11, or something in that price range.

What are these things? Are they going to be the next beats? Will all the cool kids being wearing them because they are endorsed by a big name rapper. It is quite obvious that Ludacris saw Dre's sucsess off of making mediocre, overpriced headphones, and copied him. They even look the same, and...

Quote: What is the difference between the 580, 680, and 780's? They are all close to the same price and they look identical.

Well, I'm sort of a headphone noob. That is why I came here.

The more and more I read, the more I'm liking the DT770's. The Shure's don't look all that comfortable atleast from pictures and reviews.

Those look decent but where do you buy them?

I just joined here because I am in need of some new headphones and it seems as if you guys have good advice.   I want over-ear headphones, that are closed back, because I don't want sound to be leaking in and out. I want something that has a nice crisp sound, and not to much bass or treble...
