    Audio Technica A-900 replacement parts

    Hi guys. Got a hopefully simple question for all the AT experts out there. I've got a pair of A-900's that have been going strong for some time. Problem is, the pads are getting a bit beat up and the cord keeps on getting kinked on me. Is it possible to replace the cord andor pads with...

    Zen Nano Plus

    Really, well that sucks. I just picked it up and the damn thing is so small. I thought the screen would be a plus but its so tiny I don't know how I'll even be able to see it. I remember the N200 was bigger than this. Can't decide if I should keep this or my 1GB shuffle. I haven't opened either...

    Zen Nano Plus

    Hey guys. Just wondering if anyone has had experience with this player yet? I know its a rebadge of the N200 but I'm wondering if they fixed the small quirks like the battery door and usb cover. For anyone that's interested the 1GB is on sale for $100 after rebate at circuitcity.com now...

    Wow, what a lady! Im probably going to go with an IPOD Mini. Can anyone tell me how the Zen Micro compares to the Mini?

    Finally ready to take the plunge - comfort>price>sound - Recommendations?

    Well I tried my 497's back on today just for kicks and it feels like I've been flying for 10 hours. There's too much pressure on my head. Also the pads are just the wrong size for my ears. They're too small to fit around my ears and too big to feel comfortable.

    Maybe my fears are unfounded but its very difficult to put faith into a product manufacturer that has had so many problems with its products (even if they fixed service, all of the current models have had a myriad of problems, and they aren't with just the old models either. Check out Amazon or...

    Like I said in the previous post, Im not going any where near RIO. I refuse to buy from a company that only offers a 90 day warranty on all its products and produces generally sub standard quality items.

    They make a 2GB Mini? She's not that savvy with the tech. Still has problems programming the tivo I got her last year. Im definately staying away from RIO with their crappy service and 90 day warranty.

    This one is pretty straight forward. Its my aunt, and she is a total noob, not to mention getting over the hill already. Also the whole thing needs to be user friendly, not just using the player. I was thinking that this pretty much eliminates iRiver since their stuff usually takes a while to...

    I forgot to mention that I also do some moderate gaming. Don't know if that affects the recommendations but it should be noted.

    Sorry I should have clarified this before. The reason I mentioned that Im in an apartment is because my roomate is a light sleeper and his bedroom shares the same wall as mine. Kind of inconvenient but its a great place at a great price. I know the 497's are open, and they're become too leaky at...
