    What about the Beyerdynamic DT231?

    Why is it that I never see this headphone mentioned here? I forgot it existed until a member posted a picture of his in the Portable forum. I constantly see recommendations being asked for for closed, portable headphones ~$50, or < $100. V6's and the HD280 are good solutions, but not all that...

    ATH-CM7 earbuds - any opinions?

    Yes, I'm crazy for even considering these, but has anyone bought or heard the new Audio Technica ATH-CM7 earbuds yet? I'll welcome opinions on the ATH-CM5 if you've heard that too, particularly how it compares to the Sony E888. But I'd like to know something about how the CM7 sounds the most...

    Offspring - Splinter

    Anyone get this yet? I just bought it today and have been listening. I swear this popped out of nowhere. I walk in the record store and holy crap, there's a new Offspring album! Now I have a soft spot in my heart for the Offspring. They were the first band I ever listened to. I love these guys...

    Firewire and USB 2.0 with iPod?

    Can you use USB 2.0 with the iPod? What are the advantages/disadvantages of this instead of using Firewire? My computer only has a USB 2.0 ports so I'm curious...do you have to buy a special connector for USB 2.0 or does the iPod come with one?

    Pitchfork's Top 100 Albums of the 1990s

    This is Pitchfork's second Top 100 Albums of the 1990s list. The list starts right on the main page at: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com. Only the first half is up right now. It's a much more interesting read, to me at least, than the Rolling Stone article on the Top 500 Albums. This will give you...

    Sony D-465 is nice

    The d-465 is a nice player... My CHA-47's battery died on me so i'm listening unamped now...y'know they really should make battery amps that power off when you're done listening. Otherwise when you fall asleep your battery is kaput by morning... And d-465-->sr200 rules...a PCDP that...

    Corda Amplifiers with Grado Heaphones

    I rarely see the two mentioned together. The amps I'm wondering about are the Corda HA-1, HA-1 MkII, and HA-2. Are there any Grado owners who particularly like the combo ("synergy" if you will ) of Grados with Corda amps? It seems like these are always paired with Sennheiser or Beyerdynamic...

    Anyone have the Rio Nitrus yet?

    So I needed something to do while studying and ventured over to IGN Gear where I read the review of the Rio Nitrus. It reputedly has an underpowered headphone out. Has this been anyone else's experience? That would really be the kicker for me since I need something that would drive the Etymotic...

    KSC-35 Broken Clip

    Okay, so the right clip of my KSC-35's is broke. It won't stay on the driver and just falls right off. Nothing's snapped off or anything, it just won't click in anymore. Is there anywhere to get replacement clips or fix it? Anyone else have the same problem?

    Opinions on Shure e2c vs. Etymotic ER-6?

    I've been using the search to find opinions on both the Shure e2c and Etymotic ER6, and although I've found many opinions on one or the other, I've yet to find a side-by-side comparison of any kind. These are pretty much in the same price range ($100 new for the Shures, $129 for the Etys), both...

    KSC-35 Question - Glasses

    Got a quick question for KSC-35 owners. I'm planning on getting my brother a pair of KSC-35's for his birthday and just remembered he wears glasses so that could affect fit. Do any of you wear glasses and have any problems wearing KSC-35's at the same time? Or do they work fine?

    Good Mini-mini cable?

    I'm a stranger to this section of the forum. What I'm looking for is a good relatively inexpensive mini-mini cable to use with my D-33 PCDP and the CHA-47 I bought. It needs to be flexible and not too long. Something that will be a marked improvement over Ratshack cables yet nothing over the top...

    Head-fi Amp Popularity Chart

    That's a lot of METAs... The estimated total cost of all these amps is just under 1.1 million dollars. There's a minimum of ten units for an amp to be listed on the chart. This graph was made by antness, not me.

    Should we just be content?

    A strange thing just happened to me. I loaded up my new Spirited Away soundtrack that I've never heard before into my CE775, put on my HFI-650's, and pressed Play. The first track comes in with some lovely piano music and it sounds great!!!!! "Oh crap, I forgot to plug my phones in, my speakers...

    Question about cables

    I've got an SCD-CE775 player and haven't been able to connect it to my META42 amp since I don't have any cables besides my mini-mini (the amp has an 1/8" input). I'm wondering whether it would be better to get a high-quality RCA-RCA cable for it and an RCA-mini adapter, or just a high-quality...
