    Hello, I was hoping for help on where to find a black D1000 for the lowest price available. I'm looking at the silver color's prices and its 99.99 at amazon. Has it ever gone that low for a black one?

    cx300 tips on ebay also wide at the base?

    I want to buy CX300 tips on ebay as they are a perfect fit for me. I was wondering if the ones on ebay are perfect replicas, in that they are also wide at the base compared to the ones sold for sony? I know some tips sold also work for Sony phones, so they may not be the exact same shape as...

    Full-size that sounds the same as E4c?

    I'm wondering if there are any headphones that sound like the E4c? I'm comparing them right now to my MS1 and I still prefer the E4C sound sig, but just by a little. It's fuller and richer-sounding, although missing those highly regarded highs that MS1s have.

    Can someone recommend a pair of fun cans ~$100?

    I've heard of a few: K81DJ ATH-ES7 Not a big fan of Grados, but any other brand would do.. EDIT: It will be used with an iPod nano unamped (but not necessarily outdoors, I just walk around the house) so there're a few limitations set by that.. currently have: E4c's and V-moda Remix

    Has anyone compared the updated apple earbuds with the remix?

    I'm curious, and probably impatient as well, because I currently have the updated apple earbuds that came with the 2G Nano, but have been waiting on my remixes to arrive for a couple weeks now. I'm wondering if anyone has made a comparison between these two, since the new apple buds sound...

    Earbuds/Canalphones with E4 Sound Sig?

    Hello, I'm wondering if someone could point me to some earbuds or canalphones that share the same sound characteristics as the E4c's? That would mean sweet mids and balanced bass and treble, as well as instrument separation and clarity. I love the way the E4c's sound, but the isolation is...

    Will E4C cause me to miss my flight?

    I currently have the V-moda Vibes and while I'm happy with them, I think I can do better with the E4c's.. I'm about to go on a flight very soon, and I'm wondering if the E4cs isolate so much that I will miss important announcements at the airport. I don't want to be that guy oblivious to...

    How is the bass impact on them AD700s?

    Audiophile-hopeful here who's tried out a bunch of cans but hasn't quite been satisfied with what he's tried. Are they anything like that of the MS-1s where they do reproduce the low notes but have no impact? For me, it's not a problem if the lowest end notes are not reproduced, it's more...

    Looking at ATH-A700's -- will laptop source suffice?

    I'm making a pretty big revamp of my headphone inventory and I'm wondering if the A700's will do a good job from a generic laptop sound card? I've heard they are source sensitive but to what extent? also, please add in your comments for an ipod nano 2g source.

    About to do a recable.. question

    This is a really stupid question but please bear with me: On the plug, how do I know which of the solder terminals will be going to left channel or right channel? I'm doing this on a neutrik plug. There is a short terminal, long terminal, and I've figured out that the big oen where the clamp...

    Can someone describe MS-1 and HD 595 sound to me?

    I am looking into both these headphones and own a K81DJ. I use the k81 without the foam pads and find that bass level to be great for my tastes, maybe a little too much still. With this in mind, could someone describe the sound of MS-1 and HD 595 to me, in relation to the K81DJ's? This also...

    K81DJ: Velour or No Velour?

    While my K81DJs are being sent in for repair (my fault), I wanted to ask people who have modded the stock pads for the HD-25 velour pads: 1. How does it affect SQ? 2. How does it affect Comfort? 3. How does it affect Isolation? Thanks for your input

    How to get warranty service for AKG?

    I posted this in the K81DJ thread but I guess it doesn't really belong there: Hi, Could someone tell me how to contact AKG for repairs? I went all HULK on my new K81's (with the heels of my hand already on the pads) and snapped it off at the silver swivel. Ooops How likely is it that...

    Soundsticks II vs Klipsch Promedia 2.1

    Currently I'm deciding which one of the two to get. The reasons I'm thinking of the Soundsticks is that I use an iBook and it would definitely go well with the speakers aesthetically. And also, I might not even be able to notice the difference in the sound quality between that and the...
