    Monoprice 8" studio monitors for $180, 10-inch powered subwoofer for $198, free shipping, plus additional 25% savings with promo code

    Just wanted to share this spectacular deal. I recently purchased both of these for a second room system, and I'm really impressed with them. At these prices, you really cannot go wrong.   Monoprice has their excellent 8" 120W powered studio monitors on sale this week (until 7/17/16)...

    Which headband is on your SR-325i?

    So I picked myself up a new SR-325i after being sans-Grados for a year, and I was somewhat surprised to see an RS-1 sized headband on them. It's not quite an RS-1 headband because it has no padding at all, and the leather isn't as soft and nice, but it's definitely the same width. I'd seen...

    Need for a burn-in sticky

    I noticed a trend in new threads frequently appearing on the subject of burn-in. Why not make a FAQ sticky so that each new member with a new pair of headphones lacking the desire to use the search button can just have their question about burning in their new can answered in a post that will...

    Bad eBay experience in progress...

    Alright, so usually I don't rant about things since people always come out of the woodwork to say "shut up and stop complaining," but this is annoying me enough and maybe some people here have had similar experiences. I put up my Grado RA-1 on eBay; auditioned briefly, looks and functions...

    Grado RS-1 mahogany color

    Browsing the gear for sale forum, I noticed the quick sale of Sean H's RS-1s, for an amazing price. Not only did the price catch my eye, but the color of the mahogany cups bowled me over. I know that the color varies, but I've been used to seeing a light orangish reddish color. This dark...

    My entrance into the Grado realm

    I found out yesterday that the University Audio store just down the street carries Grados, so I went down this afternoon, auditioned a pair of SR-325s, and brought a pair home after spending the last week dreaming about them. I've got them burning in under a few pillows right now. I had my...

    I'm looking for a Female mini to stereo male RCAs cable. I can't find one anywhere on the web. Anyone seen one?

    Monster Brand iPop Mini to RCA

    Has anyone heard this? I saw it at Best Buy. I assumed since it was monster cable that it was just an overpriced standard cable with little to offer over a ratshack one. It did look really flexible. Someone want to pick on up and give it a listen?

    Audiophile 2496 vs. DCM-370

    I just won an Audiophile 2496 off of eBay, so I haven't received it yet, and I've been considering going for a DCM-370 as well. I'd like to know if there's a reason why I should or should not go for the changer. I auditioned the Denon at a local pro audio shop, and if I can get it for around...

    M-Audio Cards

    I plan on buying a card for the computer I'm buying in a few weeks and I'm tight on cash. Is there any reason that I shouldn't save money by buying the DiO 2448 rather than the Audiophile 2496? I'm not ever going to use MIDI, and I can't imagine why I would need to input 96khz sample rates. I...

    Looking for pig pictures of common cans

    I'm doing a project for school and I'm looking for some big, decent quality pictures of the most common cans. The pictures should have just the headphone on a white background and be fairly large, like 400 x 400 or larger. Smaller may be fine as well if it looks ok. I've got some already, but if...

    External PCDP power supply?

    Can someone suggest a portable external power supply that'll plug into the DC jack of a portable cd player for some extra battery life on long trips? I'm asking because I use a D777 and can't recharge the gumsticks on long road trips and such since the external battery pack blocks the line-out...

    Sony V6 and 7506

    I found this and thought that some of you may want to see it. Don't know if some people have read it already, but you can check it out here... http://music.multimedian.com/reviews/7506.html The reviewer claims, "Before the test I listened to the 7506's long enough to get the impression...

    Mini to mini

    Does it make a difference in what mini to mini interconnect I use to connect my portable to an amp? Is it really worth spending $20 plus s/h to get one from Headroom than to just go out to the store and get one for a few bucks?

    Sony MDR-NC10/20

    What does anyone know about these international 'phones? I've heard of them and seen pictures, and apparently the NC10s are earbuds equipped with microphones to monitor outside noises, since they're noise cancelling. Otherwise, is there anything special about the sound of these two?

    Looking for a portable CD player

    I'll be getting an amp soon, so I'm now looking for a good sounding portable CDP with a good line out. Apparently there aren't any current models that have sound that compares with the quality of early ones, so I looked around the web for some of old models, and here's what cought my eye as...

    Headphone protection

    Currently when I travel with my headphones, I have them in a cardboard box, which is somewhat bulky and inconvenient. Is there anything out there that would serve as a nice case for transportation? I'm thinking of something that would protect against shock impacts and abuse, and not of just a...
