My setup

I finally got some speakers/stands, and decided to take a few pictures of my set-up to share here. I love it.

So, I'm checking in. I've been listening to them for the past few days and have to say that I love the sound for the most part. It's as fun as I remember my SR60s being but more like my K601s in the amount of detail. However, I think I finally understand what people meant when they's say that...

I'm sure they sound amazing, but to me, the HD800s just look completely over-designed.

Wow, those are nice stands--they put my banana holders to shame. I don't feel like I read much about Sony's on these forums, though. They certainly look good.

I've been following this thread for a while now and just wanted to pop in and join other 325i(s) owners. I just bought a pair of 325is's (#890) and am listening to them right now. My first impressions are that they look and feel muchhh better than the SR60s I sold a while back. I knew the...

What about the MS-2s compared to the 225i? I'm still leaning towards the Grados made of metal...

Thanks again for all the responses...I think I'm just going to go with the 225i. One more question, though: did the 325i come in both the silver and gold color? or the is the silver only the new 325is?

Thanks for the responses everyone.....My budget is $200 and below so those ATH-AD2000s are out of the question.... My next question is whether it's worth moving up to the 325(i) instead of the 225s or below....I'm tempted because the metal might make them seem less like toys....

My brother bought me a pair of SR-60s 4 years ago that I sold not long ago to a friend. I regret the decision not only because I realize now that they had a lot of sentimental value for me but also because they were so enjoyable! I'm now on the market for a pair of Grados to be their...

Hi, A while back I had a pair of SR-60s I sold to a friend because I'm an idiot and have been using my K601s since. I miss how lively those headphones made a lot of my music and am contemplating buying a pair of Grados to complement my K601s. However, I was never a fan of the build quality of...

An eternity and a lot of money later, my setup is complete. Logitech dinovo edge keyboard, MX Revolution mouse, mStand, MBP, and the 24" LED cinema display.

My genius plan didn't pan out because I'm realizing that selling the computer and getting at least $350-400 back as I hoped to do is very hard if not impossible. Its possible to get the computer new for $1700 new with a current Live.com promotion and then there is the fact that eBay and PayPal...

Definitely. As for saving my pennies for it like you said, I think its funny the effect Apple's products and just presentation can have on me. I figured, okay, I don't have the $430 plus (for a used Dell 2408) I was going to spend on the screen but I have a card for 0% and basically just a...

Also, I think colognes are about the next hardest thing I can imagine for people to discuss and compare, right after headphones and audio.

I don't buy colognes that often but I found chanel allure homme sport a while back and have been a big fan ever since. It works for formal occasions and out during the day.

Nice choice on the car and color. I had a 2001 TT back when they made the 1.8 Liter in manual and with quattro. The car was pretty friggin' slow but it was so nice to be in and look at. I've since changed cars twice but still miss that car. I have an Acura TL now but the Z4 has always been...

After giving it a lot of thought, I think what I intend to do is sell my Macbook Pro and buy a top-of-the-line Macbook and Apple LED display. If the screen is no longer a consideration because of the external display, I can certainly do without the expresscard slot and firewire. I am not sure...

The company that makes CloneCD has software for DVDs but I'm thinking about files gotten through iTunes. I don't buy or rent anything now but just in case. Also, does anyone know if all displayport monitors are HDCP compliant? I know the newest revision of displayport is but I'm not sure what...

Hey, So I recently bought a new Macbook Pro and am now looking to buy a monitor to use at my desk. I'd love the new Apple LED display but the price makes it impossible so I've started to look at two Samsungs, the 2493 and T240HD. Both have the usual connections and HDMI. My question is whether...

Rereading two books for sociology courses, both of which are terrible (the books, not the classes)--- Breaking Open the Head: A psychedelic Journey into the Heart of Contemporary Shamanism and Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity. When I get some time I...

I don't follow motorcycles too closely but I've seen older ducatis which I liked and these don't elicit the same reaction.

Just thought I'd add I'm also looking for another external drive (likely 1TB) and am looking for a Western Digital one. I've had an older drive from them and have never had any issues with it so I don't think I'll risk losing my data with other brands which seem to have so-so reliability records.
