Out of this list, I have only own the 840s, but I can vouch for their performance; I have yet to be disappointed by anything that I throw at them. I bought them as a supplement to my E500s (now broken, I have a pair of SE535s enroute currently!) Compared to the E500s, from what I can recall, the...

I'll just chime in and say that this band is definitely amazing, one of my favorites even. Burst Apart is their first album together as an actual band. Where as Hospice was front man Peter Silberman's lyrics stylings. It's really quite fascinating to see where they took the direction of the...

I need a bit of advice on what my next move should be.   My Shure E500s have recently bit the dust; the wire over the ear is totally exposed and beginning to turn green. I'm worried that entire casing will separate from the wire if I continue to use them much more. So in my opinion I have...

Awesome, thanks guys.  

Bump. I'm curious as well.

I ordered these on the 26th of July and RMC still hasn't shipped them yet I ordered when they were in-stock too! Ahh the wait is killing me.

Hey dreadful, can I ask you what made you narrow your choice down to the AD700s? I have a similar music preference/ budget that you're working with and was just looking for some more information to help me with my own search for a start-up rig.

Could you explain more please? Sorry this is my first attempt at putting a home rig together so I don't know all the pieces.

I've been doing some browsing in the amp forum and one that consistently shows up is the MKV. It received great reviews and seems to have a really nice synergy with the HD650s. Have you heard of it? It's a Solid State amp and seems to have enough power to drive the 650s well. So my system would...

Thanks so much! This is exactly the kind of post I was looking for! I don't think I'm ready to try electrostatics yet, and I'm not much of a fan of the in-your-face presentation, so I think I might look into those Sennheisers. I'm just starting so I don't have much of a "system" per say. At...

I've had my pair of E500s for two years now and I want to upgrade them to a pair of full size cans for home listening. I really like everything about the Shures, but I just wished that they had more presence in the higher registers. I'm tending to lean towards a Sennheiser because they...

Well if it's any help I will be pairing the player with E500s. I would love the WiFi and the sleekness of the ipod touch, which is mainly what I'm basing my purchase off of. If I jailbreak it... That just opens up a whole new window. I think It would be a very neat toy to have around, that just...

Thanks for all the replies, I think I've decided on the Touch.

I'm really on the fence about which one of these flash players I'd like to get. Both are able to have 16 gigs so that's of no concern. I'm really interested in the touch-screen navigation so that's not a negative. I just can't decide which one to pull the trigger on. So, which one would you...

Just one favorite ? I like all of these the best: We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank The Moon & Antarctica The Lonesome Crowded West This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About Good News for People Who Love Bad News Modest Mouse sure does have a unique musical...

That's what I wanted to hear. Thanks for the help nc800.

It seems as if all his songs have the same 'sound' good stuff though. Maybe I'll get the album.

also, the use of a shirt clip can help with the microphonic noises.

I found some D-NE20s! I've herd that there are some compatibility(tolerance) issues with it playing MP3 or ATRAC compressed music. Now if I was planing to make a copy of a cd using EAC, would the player have a problem with it? Thanks!

Wow that would be awesome! do it!

AH! I've been searching ALL day for a high quality newer PCDP and they all seem to have dropped out of existence! I'll have to look at some other DAPs then .

Ah! but I'm not so sure that E500s would have too much synergy with those. I'll look out for them though.

the NE900 does have a digital out. See this thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=258274 I believe the only differences are: -Analog amp(900) as opposed to digital amp(930) via HPO: The analog is supposedly more powerful and sounds better then the digital amp. If you're...
