theres also the m-audio q40 that is worthy if you are a bass lover. But i do NOT know which comes up in favor because they are both so high in peoples opinion. If anyone knows, give us a shout.

I have had the vibes which people say are identical to the JBLs. When I compared it to my ep630s, JBLs were no doubt quieter and less involving and engaging if you get my drift. It wasnt the sound I hoped for as an upgrade from the ep630s and due to the low sensitivity, 630s needs less power to...

Inspiron 6xxx series uses a Sigmatel sound chip, much like the ones in my Samsung yp-z5 player fyi.

I have experience with 3 ep630, which are basically the cx300. After burning in on one set for 40-50hours, the earphones started to get really shrill to the point that the highs started to become shrieky. Also the bass weakened as well. My friend bought another pair for his birthday and Ive...

Portapros?

Im in the same situation as you are. I bought the k81 with canare cable already so I am not sure if a recable is worth it to you or not. My other suggestion is trying another DAP like Sony's NWZ-S616 So it might depend if you use equalizer or not.

Why do people say apple would be the ultimate choice if it was amped. If the s616 is better unamped than the ipod, wouldnt s616 STILL be better WITH amp? I say to the original poster : iphone>sony>touch --I dont think its the AMP issue that would be the deciding factor to buy the touch...

in order of bass quantity and overall listening enjoyment: ep630=cx300=vmoda bass freqs > crossroads x3 > v-moda vibes = ovc t25 > im716 > superfi3 etc ive spent 6 months configuring my portable rig just to find out all i had to spend was $20 for the ep630 and $15 for ksc75 and be done...
