So I have a question.. when someone pays for an item, do they use the "gift" option to avoid paypal fees? I don't really think paypal would really protect the buyer much, even if the transaction were really a purchase on head-fi... so what's the point?

just bought mine from the amazon deal, since the nozzle on my e500's broke (right driver). i also decided to pay the $260 to get a new set of SE535's... i figured i could flip it for $350 and recoup $90, which would go into the $95 that it cost for my UE's..    but with the UE, i will...

So I broke the tube that holds the foam to my shure e500, which is basically the SE530/535... sent mine in to shure and they say it can't be fixed. This means, since I'm out of warranty, that I have to pay $240+shipping/tax to receive a new unit.   I'm kind of broke right now, so I'm...

So I want to take advantage of the 25% cashback from ebay, so here are my criteria: - Has good synergy with Shure E500s - Has built-in DAC - Price range is $400-$500 (probably has to be bought used on this forum, and then have it posted on ebay) So far I'm thinking the RSA Predator, but...

The right driver on my Shure E500 isn't working now... what are some possibilities? Clog is the obvious possibility... what about water? I washed my piece and dried it with toilet paper and put them in - i guess this was a stupid idea.

a cheap generic mini to mini cable at a retailer? i just need any cheap one to test if my amp is broken or the cable.

I bought his Go-Vibe 5 a while ago.. the input jack isn't functioning properly. I emailed him a few months ago, and he told me to make sure it was the input jack.. well, since then he hasn't responded to my emails. Or does anyone know who's willing to fix the input jack on my Go-Vibe 5?

my mistake, please remove

I was at a hearing frequency site testing my hearing.. i clicked on a bunch of frequencies. I think it was the 8khz (the loudest) that my coworker (who sits about 7 feet away from me) claimed he heard a loud throbbing sound going thru his skull. I was amazed! I took out the ksc75s and played...

on my go vibe 5 amp? the right channel doesn't work, but when i put it in half way, i can get sound (but it doesn't sound right). i've tried contacting norm, but he's practically impossible to get a hold of now. his e-mail doesn't work, i dont think his website is up anymore, and he's blocked...

the line-in on my GV5 isn't functioning properly.. i'm wondering if he still repairs these things? his yahoo email address no longer works, and i dont know if he still has a site... thanks

sucks to me. it's not their signature sound that i liked.. this album is really different. im pretty disappointed, since i love the band. anyone else agree?

so yeah, i've been out of the mix for a while... and i'm always hearing about this "imod" .. did a search and only found people bringing it up, so.. what is it? is it just an amplifier modification?

ok, i notice this topic has already been discussed many times, but there are way too many threads to search and sort out.. but is there a big difference between 192 and 320? i'm a little concerned because the e500PTH is coming my way.

with warmer sounding cans? (ie: the shure e4c)

yeahhhh, i've had the e4c for a little over a year now.. im so excited to be getting the e500! can't wait. so yeah, i dont think i'd use the PTH feature.. are there people who would actually buy it from me?

so i got tracking with my package, and this is what it says: Quote: We attempted to deliver your item at 9:55 AM on September 15, 2007 in NILES, IL 60714 and a notice was left. It can be redelivered or picked up at the Post Office. If the item is unclaimed, it will be returned to the...

so basically you don't need a confirmation from shure. you just print out the slip, fill it out, and mail it in? just want to double check before i ship my e4c out. also, do i have to package the case and other accessories? i've misplaced most of it all, sadly.

so amazon has jacked their price up to $20, and radioshack is selling them for $25... i have finals next week, and need to get a gift for someone. anyone a cheap online site or an in-store price lower than $20?

anyone here play it? you think a 1.5mobile cpu/radeon 9600 pro turbo, 768MB of ram.. can handle it? just got it at best buy, heard great things about it.. but it's not worth opening if i can't play it.

from the same manufacturer as the portable player? i think the answer is no, but you never know. so what's a good fm transmitter? and i''m kind of weary of using the car charger to power the player... especially when it's not on the freeway. iAudio doesn't have a whole lot of accessories...

seems like it... not too long ago, as in a decade ago, we used to be the best at almost everything.. nowadays, with the trend of globalization... we're quickly slipping with EVERYTHING. even sports, as showcased in the olympics (i think, right?). so how much longer until we're no longer no. 1?

who here thinks that the biological father siad what he said to the media... for a little more "bribe" money? because he recently made another statement saying that he doesn't want the child back... how can you change your opinion so quickly?

so, i have an iAudio U3... it says it's compatible with both the 110v and 220v chargers... thing is, i have a motorola usb charger, which says it is 100v-240v could i use the charger on my U3?

got my U3 today to complete my set of Shure E4C + iAudio U3 + Go Vibe V5 ... and i literally felt an eargasm, as in euphoria spread throughout my whole body. i just lost my virginity, and it's terrific!
