Sorry, been outta the audio loop for a while and wanted to purchase these for my new zune. Is amazon the cheapest e-tailer for these iems?

I just purchased my zune from ebay and I plan on buying the er-4s when I sell some of my home setup. Was wonderin if it sounded decent unamped or does it really need one to shine. My current setup is in my sig and I really enjoy clarity, detail, and soundstage over bass. thanks in...

I'm about to let go of my home set up of x-fi->great march->heed->701's and wanted to go portable. I plan to buy a nano with no amp and was looking for an IEM with the same sound signature as my 701's. My max budget is probably 200$ish. thanks in advance

Looking for a program to convert flac to mp3. Free to download pref. Don't want to deal with free trials that end in X amount of days.

Been using a cheap 20$ fm transmitter with my sony ericsson w810i and the static is killing me. Are there any cheap but decent decks that cost around 100$? Links and reviews would help. thanks.

There are just so many DACs with so little reviews to choose from. And I don't really want to mod any of them. I have a x-fi > glite > k701 and I'm aiming for detail and clarity. Here is the list of DACs Ive read of so far: zhaolu 2.5 citypulse lite dac entech nc and I know theres a lot I...

Ive had this set up with a x-fi for about 3 months and couldnt be happier. But yesterday I noticed that there was a slight hiss on the right side of the headphone. I thought it was just my mic but today I unplugged the amp and 710 from the computer and the hiss was still there. So its either the...

man everytime i read a rs-1 thread it makes me want to upgrade my 701's. How is the comfort of those btw?

Recently got into jpop and became a huge fan of Utada Hikaru. I have all her albums(I think) and some of her videos(mtv unplugged being my fav). I just love her voice. Anyway, besides her, I like Koda Kumi and that's about it. Reason being I don't know any others and a little afraid to...

I dunno, was listening to my 701 with glite this morning and the sound was so good. Felt like I was standing right in front of Utada(jpop) listening to her sing Final Distance. I remember for one song of hers (time limit), the drums in it were overpowering to the point where they hurt my ears...

ups just dropped this off for me this afternoon and I hastily plugged it in for a listen. just a heads up I only got a x-fi and a PA2v2 right now(waiting on my gilmore lite). I would say that as of now, my EP-630's sound equal if not better than the 701's. I hope that with a little bit of burn...

Was initially planning to make my headphone purchase from headroom but found out they were backordered for about 2-4weeks. Is there any e-tailer that sells them for the same price and has them in stock?

I will finally be able to purchase my gilmore lite amp along with some 701's within a week. Now I'm thinking if I should get the DPS while I'm at it and save about 25$ as opposed to buying it later on(if i wanted). For those who have A and B'ed the amp with the dps, could you give some feedback...

I am a bit confused as to what exactly a DAC does. From what I have read, it converts digital audio to analog? If so, what are the benefits of this? I'm really trying to plan out my parts before going ahead and making my mass purchase. My plans right now are: X-Fi<<Zu Pivot...

Both of these amps get great reviews and are in the same price range. Which do you think pairs up better with the 701's? If other, specify an amp thats: -300$ price range -solid state also, how much of a difference does the dps make for the gilmore?

Like every post I have been posting about lately, I am in the process of purchasing k701's along with a gilmore lite. Now all I need to buy is a rca to mini cable. I can't really justify spending 100+ dollars for one of these cables unless I know the sound difference will be major. Could you...

Been eyeing this combo for quite a while now and as soon as I have the funds am going to make the purchase. I have asked in many other threads how the gilmore lite sounds with general replies. I am almost 100% sure that I will be purchasing the k701's because of their neutral sound and...

Been reading a lot about these headphones as of late. I plan to upgrade my a-500s to these. Looked around google and such and came up with some sites from pricegrabber stating they were 299, but when I clicked on the link, all it showed was 399. Also, people who have upgraded from my price...

Hate what consumer forums do to me. So hard to have more than 200$ in my account nowadays. Anyway, I have been running a-500's for quite a while now and just got a pa2v2 for it. I was pretty satisfied with the sound until I found out(from here) that there are a lot better. To me, the a-500s...

I just recieved my pa2v2 from gary and I love em. But I noticed that with the volume on the amp turned all the way up, there is a noticable hissing sound. From what I have read, I am guessing it's from the mini to mini cord. If that's the case, could someone recommend some nice 10$ mini to mini...
