All my local stores are overpriced with a very limited selection, so what is the cheapest place to find CD's online? I'm open to those "buy one get three free" type offers...- ywd

Best headphones ever
What would you say are the best headphones ever made, price-no-object. I know its subjective, but if you could have any one pair of headphones to use most of the time, what would it be?- ywd

When you think about it, ibuds are the best value in headphones:
When you pay nothing for something, no matter how good or bad it is, it is an infinitely good value. The nothing that you paid for the ibuds gives you infinite value per dollar. This only applies if you got them free w/ ipod, btw.- ywd

ex71 w/ triflanges?
Has anyone ever tried one of the listed headphones with this triflange from amazon? It looks like it could do wonders for isolation, but it is a non-amazon seller only, with no reviews, so i am a bit wary. http://www.amazon.com/Replacement-Ea...108713&sr=8-10- ywd

Isolation, Durability of cx300, e2c, and JBL 220
Taking into account only isolation and durability, which of these are the best? I do not particularly care the best SQ as long as it is listenable, as they will not get all that much use. Actually, comfort is another major factor.- ywd

What exactly is binaural?
And how does it pertain to headphones? It seems like some kind of surround sound in stereo type thing. Is any special equipment needed to use it? Headphones with a soundstage? (I have sr60s)- ywd

JVC marshmallow isolation
Do the fx33s isolate very well? I have heard conflicting things on this. Anyone feel they can give me an approximate # of DBs that these isolate? How do they hold up against "real" iems like the er6 or um1, or active cancellation phones like bose or sony ones? Note that i'm not asking about...- ywd

Just got my sr60s, wow!
The very first thing i noticed was the comfort. I don't see how anyone can possibly say that these are uncomfortable. The stock foam pads cover my ears well and don't clamp too much, but they still feel quite stable, and i can really forget i am wearing them. I guess all the complaints are...- ywd

I just demo'd bose's line of full size headphones
I must say, i was truly impressed by the noise cancellation on the QC3, for a supra aural headphone, it provided good isolation and great comfort. The QC2 was about the same, but i liked the feel of the qc3 more. The regular triports/OE's were identical to the QCs, but with no noise...- ywd

KSC75 vs IEMs
My er6i should be arriving any day now and i am wondering: 1. How will they compare, SQ wise, to my somewhat burnt-in ksc75s? 2. How much $$ does it take to buy an iem that sounds noticeably better than the koss?- ywd

What music makes the ksc75 really shine?
I just received mine, and am listening to DSoTM and really loving them, what kinds of music do you all think the 75s are best with? I've really been liking how guitars sound on these. -
Sony S2 CD player -> SR60s
I will be ordering some sr60s soon, and i will use them primarily for ALAC->Ipod, but i also have a sony S2 CD player that i haven't used in forever, and was wondering if the grados will sound better out of it than the ipod or my creative sb live soundcard. No amp or anything. The model is...- ywd

AKG K81DJ or Grado SR-60?
Stacked up side by side, how do these two compare to each other? I know the grados will probably sound a bit better because theyre open, but how much? The akgs look like they are built sturdier, will they likely last any longer? From what I've heard of grado's service, longetivity should be no...- ywd

Need some suggestions regarding my first quality headphones
I have a budget of ~120, but i can go over, and options i am considering are: 1. SR60 and PMX100, using sr60 at home, pmx as portables 2. HD555 for use at home, deal with my Triport IEs elsewhere 3. Ak81 DJ for general use, maybe some pmx100s (leaning away from this option) 4. Assume my...- ywd

sr60s with an ipod?
I have never really used "good" headphones before, and i am wondering how grado sr60s sound from an ipod's line-out jack. I currently use bose triport in-ear headphones, and i don't really like them. I have no intention of ever buying an amp btw- ywd
