I'm interested.

The Optimus CD3400 has also been a contender for "the best." (I have the DCP150 but I've never listened to the CD3400). You're not talking about currently available pcdps, are you? Because that's a whole different ballpark.

Me! (I don't think anyone's said that yet...)

I think you're in the right direction with looking into the Eggo line. I have a pair of the older mdr-66sl and I've gotten positive responses from my girlfriends. I don't know anything about the successor Eggo, but I can say the following about the ones I have. People on audiocubes who've owned...

I had mice, gerbils, and hamsters growing up, and I enjoyed them, but they don't live very long on average, especially mice. If you want a pet with personality for a small child, I'm not sure you want a hamster. They spend most of their daytime sleeping and aren't incredibly social animals...

Your son is adorable. Cool find!

um2. I might as well sell everything else.

Just to pipe in from a different perspective, I think that the tab should be split in an ideal world. I prefer that the guy offer to pay, but I'll always interject and offer to split. If he lets me, I'll pay my half. If he's adamant, I'll let him pay. The gesture of the man offering to pay is...

I can listen to my favorite songs on stock headphones, but I can't listen to songs I dislike on top equipment. While I have a thing for all the shiny things, it was music that led me there.

I will try my very best to come to my first Head-Fi meet and be the/a token female. I might be asking some stupid/n00b questions about meets as Nov 10th draws closer.

I like North Face backpacks. All (or most?) have a pouch that's usually used for a hydration bag that can be used for a laptop. They also have awesome straps and are the most comfortable backpacks I've ever used. I have the Borealis.

Hope you have a good one!

I have pretty small ears and ear canals (Grados are circumaural for me), and I found the Shure e2 with small clear sleeves to be too big, but the Westone um2 with short complys are really working well for me. Never tried the Etys though.

I'm wondering what makes you think it might be a clone. I know that Akai cloned the Optimus, but I'm not seeing anything that hints at this pcdp being a clone. It has the 8 times oversampling, but I don't see anything about the 1 bit dac the CD3400 has. I'm going to hazard a negative response...

Just wondering if anyone has tried the mp3 player capabilities on the Chocolate. I was wondering if I should make the investment (microsd card + reader + 2.5" to 3.5" adapter ~$30) to use it as one.

I started Team Girl-Fi because I didn't like that other posters assumed that I was male and wanted a way to give them an indication that I was a girl without being too blunt. It was just a matter of pronoun preference. And kind of a thing to say that teenage girls can appreciate audio too...

That's what I thought. Thanks!

Is the digital out on the DCP-150 optical or coaxial? I've seen it referred to as both on Head-Fi.

My gear and I would love to go, but since I'm barely capable of riding the NYC subway, I don't think I'd be able to figure out the Manhattan train, and since I now rely solely on public transportation....

jpburton5150: yay for threadless! I'm actually wearing one of their shirts right now.

Bumpage to an old thread yes, but the price is now $89.99 with free shipping ending on Thursday. Apparently, Sonystyle is doing a weird promo that features free shipping every Tuesday-Thursday through June.
