Hi all, I just bought a pair of AKG K450, and I've noticed the cable is a bit on the thin side. Is there anything I can wrap around the cable, some sort of extra material or plastic that i might heat for it to coil around? I'd hate to have it go against my keys or something in my pocket...

Hi all, I'm terribly sorry about posting this as I know there are a fair few threads that cover specific models, but I haven't found a good comparison of the ones covered by the following criteria: £50-100 Must be closed Must be portable (office/home/travel use) Must not be huge (the size of...

Hi, I've currently got a 2.1 system and an alessandro ms-1. On my x-fi music, there's no way of running these two concurrently (even though i thought it was possible ) whats the best minijack switcher i can get? something that looks decent, doesnt cost too much, doesn't comprimise in...

Howdy! Finally got my x-fi music + alessandro ms-1 (congratulations, my first step to becoming an audiophile... hopefully the hype wont last long..? ) Anyway, i'm wondering how to configure the flexi jacks: I want my headphones and my 2.1 system hooked up at the same time, in such a...

I found the cheapest retailer... http://www.xtsit.com/browse/product_...s.php?id=10675 But can't find any good user reviews of that website? only like one or two... Has anyone heard of this website? And also, is there another place that might be recommended to purchase the x-fi? i.e. £70...

I know these have been discussed to death, but I just want some opinions... I can get these these for roughly the same, maudio for £60, prodigy for £87 (ripoff, from the US) of the x-fi music for £77. I want both my 2.1 system and my headphones connected at the same time. But not a...

I'm getting so frustrated. I havent found a single place that has audiotrak prodigy 7.1 LT, not ebay, not internationally on google, not anywhere in the uk. I've phoned, i've emailed, i've done EVERYTHING. I never imagined it being so friggin hard to buy a soundcard - here I am throwing my...

Howdy! Looking for the best price (obviously) from a decent source (taking customer care etc. in consideration). I'm looking to buy an Audiotrak Prodigy 7.1 in the uk, but can't find any on ebay (international) or froogle.co.uk... Now i only have PCI, so i can't purchase ProdigyLT (as...

Now, lets see how long it's going to take until they arrive... :P Gonna get the yellow earpads aswell, can't wait until this is on my desk http://www.techspot.com/gallery/data...um/MS1_mod.jpg Oh well, now i'm wondering on which soundcard to get... X-fi music, m-audio revo, juni@ maybe?

Has anyone ordered alessandro ms-1 to the uk? I mean, they don't reply to e-mails, and the site looks dodgy, also, what payment do they accept? I know they're to be trusted, but if i lose my cans in transit, i really does look like they're not even going to reply to emails/calls or...

Hi, i saw some yellow grado earpads which i think originally were from sennheiser? think they were $10 or something, does anyone have a link to them? EDIT: found them now, lol! But what's the best place to get the HD414 pads?

Hi there, couldn't find a good thread about this so I reckon i should just ask. I'm not good with hifi nor do i know a lot about it, but I know for cetrain that grado sr-80 delivers better quality than my koss ur-40 Currently I only have a shuttle with the integrated sound card and it's...
