    I lost my SE535s...

    ...and now I'm wondering if I should replace them with another pair, or try out something else:   I'm using them unamped out of an iPhone 5S, with the three-button mic cable, musically I'm all over the place; see http://www.last.fm/user/heeeraldo for an actual quantification of my listening...

    Audiocubes Warranty Experiences?

    I'm about to send my Eggos in for exchange (or, I would if I could find the damn packaging - see my thread in Headphone forum for details), and I'm wondering if anyone else has sent their stuff in and if so, how long things took, how smooth they went, etc etc. thanks!

    D66 owners: Help!

    I need someone's Eggo packaging and felt pouch, ASAP. I have to send mine in to Audiocubes for warranty repair (or exchange, apparently) and so they need the packaging and all accessories. Unfortunately, I've long ago thrown away my packaging and given away the pouch, and I'm hoping someone else...

    [iPod V] it had to happen to someone...

    ...a hard drive failure, that is. my iPod (ordered half an hour after the announcement, received October 19), gave me the sad iPod icon today. I'd noticed a suspiciously loud clicking noise coming from the hard drives and thought "well, this is odd", and thought I'd look into it when I had...

    Shure E4: tips won't stay on!

    I received my E4's yesterday in the mail and began fiddling with tips to figure out what I liked, what sounded best, etc, and found that the ultra-soft sleeves were nice and decided they would be the most sensible for bus use because they're easy to clean and not, well, bright yellow. only...

    do you read signatures?

    hey all! a simple question: do you read signatures at the bottom of posts? why or why not? I tend to read sigs from people whose opinions I trust and especially people who keep fairly regularly updated "five in heavy rotation"s.

    DIY iPod lineout?

    has anyone made their own lineout-> mini connector from an unused cable? I'd be tempted to try just to say I did, but I'd have no idea where to start...

    Colorware opinions?

    I've been considering getting my iPod painted black or trying to find some way to make it look a little less ubiquitous. three things combined to make me consider sending off my ipod to colorware: 1. my iPod was free. 2. the black nano looks *hot*. 3. it'd match the eggos now and the E4s...

    iPod essentials?

    So, I should be getting my free iPod soon (yeah, it worked for me, and that's all I'm going to say about it.) and I'm wondering what you fine people think is essential to have along with it. I've already got Eggos and plans to upgrade to Shure E-somethings (probably 4s, in charcoal), and I've...

    Shipping Advice/Help!

    So, I've spotted a D-EJ915 on eBay, and I'd like to bid on it/win it/what have you so that I can replace my now-failing D-345, which will hold me over until my planned 5G iPod purchase. Problem is that the seller won't ship to Canada. At all. And I have yet to receive a response as to why...

    help! I need to replace my now-broken eggo's...

    so, my eggo's (d66) have given up the ghost, after almost two years of solid use and abuse. I need to replace them, and although the obvious choice is to just get another pair, I'm curious as to what else might be good for it. my current stopgap solution is a pair of pmx-60s I picked up this...

    Help! D66 Eggo headband question.

    so, as far as I can tell, the metal INSIDE the rubber on my headband has snapped, and I don't know what to do with it. I've had the eggos for over a year, so any warranties have expired. I can take pictures, if that would be more helpful...

    ditching MD, want iMP player. suggestions?

    the title says it all. I want to sell/throw off a dam my now-defunct MZ-R900, and I don't want to deal with NetMD or Hi-MD. Eventually, I want an iPod, but since tuition's going up again, it's going to remain as an eventuality. so, yeah. what should I go for, given that my budget is about...

    Canadian users: heads-up about canada post.

    My father (who is a package sorter) mentioned that their collective agreement was up, and that talks were not very productive, so a strike is more likely every day. as well as regular mail, canada post also handles XPressPost (no HeadSave amps), and Purolator Courier(nothing from AudioCubes.)...

    worst. dream. ever.

    I'm in bed. It's Wednesday, and the mailman has just delivered my Eggo's. Or so I think. I run to the front of the house from my bedroom, open the box, lift off the styrofoam peanuts... ...and there's a pair of MDR-V200s. In conclusion: I'm hooked.

    I Might Be Wrong - money grab. or a band in it's element?

    I am referring to Radiohead's (now old) live EP, with 7 tracks off Amnesiac and Kid A, and one previously unreleased (and amazing) track. now, I think it's an amazing picture of a band where they're most comfortable - in front of a crowd. I've heard other people claim it's a money grab...

    Help! (dead KSC-50s?)

    today, the right 'phone on my 50s died. I traced it to a loose connection where the cords converge from the singular plastic widget. Is there anything I can do? ps - I can post photos if it helps.

    You know you're hooked when...

    ...you're watching Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Outta My Head" video, and wondering what kind of cans the backup dancers are wearing. (I think they were CD-xxx - over the head and bulbous silver cups) what about you?

    ...hello?

    hi! I'm in first year at UBC, 17, and absurdly jealous of you gainfully employed people some of you may recognize me from the T-Boards. If you don't, it's nice to meet you [edit: what kind of headphones is the smiley wearing? they look sorta like MDR-somethingDJs...]

    HD 202 vs HD 212Pro

    Is it worth the extra $20US for the 212 Pro? I'm a university student with a 1 hour+ bus ride, so I need sealed headphones, and the KSC-50s don't cut it. here's the links: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?sku=S302-1004 for the 202...
