AKG Bumps
I know why AKG put bumps on the K701/K702! They wanted the user to tilt the headband further back which holds on better than a flat headband. The tilting of the headphone offers much better sound. It basically sounds similar to a K1000 to me.- troymadison

Online Dating
My girlfriend dumped me the other day. She said some stuff about me not listening to her, I can't really recall exactly. I wasn't really paying attention. So anyway, I was wondering if online dating is a good or bad idea.- troymadison

Thinking about getting a Stax SRS-2050 system
I have a few questions: 1. Are there big differences between the SR-202, SR-303 and SR-404? 2. Would you say that the system I have chosen is a good bang for buck choice in the Stax lineup? 3. Is $500 shipped a good price for the whole system?- troymadison

Confused about the K1000 rolloff

I guess amp burn-in is real...
My big joe power amp went through some changes. At first they sounded a tad bit too bright for my K1000 so I bought some OP Amps. However, without even touching any of my system with new op amps, the highs are not shrill or bright anymore after like 20 or so hours of using it. The sound is...- troymadison

Just pulled the trigger on the QP55x, how is it compared to the QP250?
I already love my QP250, wanted to try other quarts for the hell of it :| I am not completely impressed with my QP45x though due to it's Senneheiser dullness, I hope it is not too much like it.- troymadison

Landscape shots with DSLR
I am really happy with my Olympus DSLR for the most part. I am amazed by most pictures that I take. However, it seems like landscape shots always come out blurry for me on manual or auto focus. Could my lens be a problem? I have a 40-150mm 4.0-5.6F lens. I will be using my film camera 28mm 2.8F...- troymadison

Gave up on the K1000, now thinking about the DX1000
I wanted to find a headphone that combined characteristics of the D2000 and K501 into one headphone since I love both, but I want to find an overall upgrade from both. Does this sound do-able with the DX1000?- troymadison
