I'm starting to feel the urge to upgrade lately, so I've been thinking of a pair of AKG K701/2. Is there any amp in the $300-and-lower range that adequately drives them?

I have quite an odd problem with a 3rd generation iPod I have. I put songs on the iPod, and after about 2 hours or more, some songs start to skip until no songs are playable anymore. When I connect the iPod to the computer all the songs are gone. When I restore the iPod with iTunes, I can put...

I think so. I used to live in a small city in Germany, as a kid, which had two historic churches, both of which had organs. Well, I recently found some CDs my dad had purchased a long time ago, which featured music played on those organs. I listed to the CDs with MS-1, and I was really...

What's in the box I wonder? Another box? Are they...? Yes they are! The Yuin Pk2 I ordered finally arrived today! I'm listening to them right now, and I never knew earbuds could sound like this! They sound quite similar to my MS-1s, just more trebly, less bass and less bass...

I know that burn-in is quite a controversial topic around here. I think the reason that burn-in has not been proven is that people don't own two of the same headphones. Well, I happen to have two Alessandro MS-1s. One belongs to me, and has been used for almost 100 hours. The other pair will be...

...that I had a pair of Grado SR-60s and iGrados on my table. I thought to myself "Mhh, these iGrados have the same drivers as SR-60s, maybe if I put my MS-1s drivers in them, I could make iAlessandros out of them. MS-1 sound in a more portable package!" I was about to attempt the mod, but I...

It arrived today. I ordered them about a week and a half ago. They sound better than my Shure E3cs in every way! When I ordered them, I tried to prepare myself for the Grado sound by EQ-ing my Shures to what I believed the MS-1s to sound like. I wasn't that far off either. Having used Shures for...

I have Koss Pro-100 headphones, and I have used them extensively as a kid before the cord broke. I recently found them, and am planning to recable them with a junk cable, just so I can hear them again. Does anyone know anything about these headphones? Do they use the same 60ohm drivers found in...

I have the oppertunity to get AKG K240 Sextett for $50 canadian. Is this a good deal? I don't know much about these headphones.

I am genuinely excited, I can't wait! My birthday is in November, and my dad said I could pick a present, as long as it's $100 or less. I picked the MS-1s. I am so excited, I don't think I can wait until the 21st of November. I did convince him to let me try them out when they arrive.

My friends 1st gen iPod nano went through the wash and drier recently and told me it doesn't turn on anymore, so he said I can have it. Unfortantly he and his friends scratched adn threw it around thinking it was a lost cause. Anywho, this is what it looked like when I brought it home. They...

Are these any good? I have the opportunity to get them for under a $100 and was wondering if they are a good buy. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to speakers so any help is appreciated.

I own Shure E3c IEMs and I am interested owning a full-sized can, and I'm not sure if I should buy the MS-1 or RP21. I've read the giant Equation Audio thread extensively and I've read through the MS-1 fan club thread as well, but I still have trouble figuring out which can is right for me...

I was wondering which headphone amp priced at around $150 would be right for me. I am using Shure E3c IEMs and on my 18th birthday I will get the Alessandro MS-1. I was thinking about the XM4 and I really like the crossfeed feature. I really don't care for the bass boost function. I am also...

I have a rather weird issue with my Shure E3C IEMs. About a week ago I popped my trusty Shures into my ears and listen to some tunes. But, what's this? No audio from the left? @#$%! I need to buy new headphones now! Wait, there is audio from the left, but only the low end and really quiet. Hmm...

At first I had the Shure E2Cs and the cable around the ear broke so I upgraded to the E3C 6 months later. I've had the E3Cs for 5 months and even though I do like their sound, i am getting annoyed with the rolled off highs. So my question is: Do the E4C still have rolled off highs just like the...
