While visiting the VAD show in Veldhoven, The Netherlands today I tried the Ultrasone Edition 9. VAD stands for "Verenigde Audio Dealers = United Audio Dealers" and is a yearly (?) show where the different dealers can show their newest equipment. I found the Ed 9 and had a listen to them. I...

And why..? I want one (to start with) but don't know wich one to get... Help me out!

I would like to buy an Mp3 player to be used without an amp and a cheap Grado headphone. I like the sd cards for memory... What do you recommend me to buy? And why? Oh yeah, I'm Dutch so don't want to spend too much dinero on it It's just for when I'm cycling to work...

I'm allways curious to what people are listening to. There are some threads here to follow but I would like to ad one... The idea is this; Post a song (or an album) that is really one of your favourite songs (or albums) that we should listen to. Don't post songs (or albums...) that you...

I need either a longer cable for my RS2 (4 mtr.) or a longer interconnect between the Clearaudio and the Musical Fidelity (12 mtr.) What's my best option, and why..? I appreciate your comments on this one before I decide wich way to go. I'm leaning towards the longer interconnect but am not...

I need an new mobile phone that doubles as an mp3 player while cycling. Wich one should I get, and why? I like the possibility to be able to use different headphones, so an 1/8" mini jack / 3.5mm headphone jack is a must imo. Is the Sony W880i the best one..?

I showed you mine... Now show me yours! Feelin' sick allready...?

De Platinum Collection - Genesis..? Disc 1 1. No son of mine 2. I can't dance 3. Jesus he knows me 4. Hold on my heart 5. Invisible touch 6. Throwing it all away 7. Tonight tonight tonight (Edit) 8. Land of confusion 9. In too deep 10. Mama 11. That's all...

After walking a weird and winding road to the purchase of a new headphone yesterday I ended up purchasing an Grado RS-2. It's a model I've heard for many times in the past and liked a lot. The price put me of a bit though... So first I purchased an Grado 325 which I also liked until I tried...

Tomorrow I'm goin' to see "Van" at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam. I love "Van" and am really looking forward to it. Last time I saw him was at "Carré" in Amsterdam. The music was great, but "Van" was in one of his famous "not so good" moods... I hope He is in a better mood...

After a week of listening to first the Grado RS2 and the 325, and mostly the Ultrasone Proline 750 with the Creek OBH 21, I have now been listening for a couple of hours again to the Audio Technica ATH W1000… First thing I noticed was that the W1000 definitely has a more natural less...

He Dudes/Dudettes... Maybe I should be reading (even) more threads and posts already posted here, but I’m taking a shortcut if you don’t mind… I am currently listening to an Audio Technica ATH-W1000. I heard that phone for the first time at the meet in Terneuzen the 4th of February this...

First my set up; Excuse me for the poor quality of the picture... After careful consideration if I should take on the offer of Hans (hoosterw) to have the Audio Technica ATH w1000 for evaluating for a couple of weeks at home, I inclined. The danger in taking up his offer was for me the...

Can anyone explain to me what the pros and cons are of the different impedances of headphones when brand, type, etc. are all the same? I wonder why manufacturers make the same headphones with different impedances… Which one to choose, and why? Which one gives the best sound quality?

I’m still looking for a good noise isolating headphone (I used to say closed headphone…) and came across the Shure E4c and the Ultimate Ears super.fi 5Pro. I wonder what are your thoughts on this choice, ear buds instead of a closed headphone… Pros are; also usable for portable use (without an...

Hello, Although I have been listening a lot with an A.K.G. 240 monitor (600 Ohm) in the past, I am fairly new to serious headphone listening. I would like to get into the matter more seriously, but could use a little help from you guys (and galls..?) I like closed cans the best because I...
