    The Ampsack

    My hippoCase arrived today and I'm very excited to have it. I have one problem though. Even though I specified Classic (was told this would fit a 5.5gen just fine) I received a Nano sleeve instead. Upon checking the Jaben forums I noticed the sleeve for the bigger iPods is different than the one...

    325i's as portables?

    Thanks for your replies everyone. RAQemUP: I won't be jogging or anything like that with them. Are they awkward enough to make walking a pain? scytheavatar: I live in a small farm-town so I'm not too worried about what people think of them. You get dirty looks for driving the wrong car...

    325i's as portables?

    Didn't expect replies so fast! ClieOS; Within 5 minutes of searching on google, I found a thread where pataburd gives the 325i and MS-2 an in-depth comparison. I look forward to the read. f00fighters; Hopefully both of us can get what we want from this thread

    325i's as portables?

    I didn't think I'd be back on here asking for advice on another purchase, but here I am. I'm working with my father and a normal day involves a lot of travel time and down time. Because of this I would really like to assemble a portable system. Isolation won't be needed so I've opted to try...

    Speakers or Headphones for gaming?

    For $200 you can get a pair of ATH-A900's. Their soundstage is spectacular. I was also surprised at how well the positioning is for fps gaming (running out of a Gigabyte MB so no EAX/CMSS3D ect). You could also check into the AD900's (open) for about $40 more, or the AD700's which are...

    Closed headphones in the $250-350 range.

    Well now I feel quite a bit more confident that I'll be able to find what I need. And yes, my main goal with the Guitar Center trip is to see what I find comfortable. Being uncomfortable on top of being closed would be a huge problem for me.

    Quote: Originally Posted by phkd I would say that if you are going to spend that much for headphones, you should seriously consider that soundcard upgrade. It's pointless to get a nice pair when their potential will never be met. However, on-board sound isn't always that terrible, you...

    Closed headphones in the $250-350 range.

    Bump! I'm still interested in CMSS-3D. Just from looking at a few Creative cards on newegg, I see that in the Features tab it mentions CMSS-3D. Does it come stock with this? Or, do I need to download it? I'm still very new to this and any insight would be much appreciated.

    Closed headphones in the $250-350 range.

    First time poster here. With so many threads just like this one I'll skip on down to the nitty gritty. As the title says, I'm looking for a good pair of closed headphones in the $250-350 price range. My only source will be my home PC. (GIGABYTE GA-EP43-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel mobo...
