I was browsing on Amazon and stumbled upon this: Amazon.com: Sony MDR-D777LP Altus Stereo Headphones: Electronics Looks like the Sony D777 Altus is on sale for $39.99 on Amazon, which imho is a steal for these which are usually priced at around %100 - $150. Makes a great gift or a cheap...

I just got back from the midnight premier at the AMC 30 at The Block in Orange, CA, and I must say that it was one of the most enjoyable films I have ever seen. Being a HUGE fan of The Beatles, I enjoyed the incorporation of the songs with the plot itself, and the entire cast did an incredible...

Hey there guys, I've been searching for a pair of portable headphones for a while. The only problem is that I have a size 8 head! I use usually one of the last settings on V6's, 555's, and about 3/4 of the way on Grado's. I was initially looking at K81DJ's, but after trying on my friend's...

So I remember reading somewhere that 10,000 Days and Wings for Marie could be overlapped to form one song. I was pretty interested in it, but never really did anything to test it. Tonight, after being bored for a few hours, I went into Garage Band. I took Wings for Marie (Wings Pt. 1) and...

Any Diablo 2 Expansion (Lord of Destruction) players here? I realize its an old game, but it's a classic! I started playing again about 10 months ago or so, and I'm still hooked . Granted, Battle.net is pretty horrible nowadays, but it's a small price to pay to enjoy a great game. My account...

So, I'm about to graduate from high school and as a gift, I will be recieveing a new Apple MacBook Pro and a DAP of my choice. The problem is, I don't really want to get another iPod, but it doesn't seem like many DAP's are Mac compatible. I've searched the forum for an answer, but to no avail...

http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=14814 A new minidisc player here in the USA by summer? Looks like my wallet will be thinner when that time comes.

So I just sold my E2C's to a friend of mine. This means I get to splurge on a new pair of headphones! I was thinking of a variety of headphones, since I listen to a lot of rock/classical/jazz/techno/whatnot. So some choices off the top of my head are: Grado SR60 Allessandro MS-1 Ultimate...

Hey guys. A good friend of mine told me he needed a pair of closed, circumaural cans. He listens mostly to bands like Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Led Zepellin, and Ministry. They need to run well unamped from an iPod. The problem is, he can spend maybe $60 USD at most. I recommended him...

If there is a Good Guys store around you, I would recommend going if you feel like it's time for a new pair of Sennheisers. I just picked up a pair of HD215's for $104, and I saw a pair of HD555's for $118 . They also had a bunch of other stuff with considerable mark-downs. Just thought I'd let...

So I watched the 2005 MTV VMA's recently, and Greenday cleaned house. I believe they won all 8 awards for which they were nominated. Now, I know that Greenday has been around for a long time and they can be called the only "real" punk band around since they have political tones in their music...

Hello everyone. I just joined the other day, but never had time to post, so I thought I might as well introduce myself. I'm a progressing audiophile, though I'm only 17. Ever since I got my hands on a pair of Sony MDR-V6's a few years ago, my need for better quality music has grown...
