    Grado/Allesandro Advice Needed

    Hi, I'm looking into buying my first set of Grados and wanted some advice. These are going to be almost strictly used through an iPOD Classic and for portable use/around the house listening. Up until now I've used Koss KSC75s and V-Moda ear buds, but the KSC75s finally broke after about 5...

    Meizu or Teclast?

    I'm going ot be picking up a 2, 4, or 8 GB flash player and wanted to know which company is the best way to go right now. Which has the best sound quality, features, etc?

    iRiver Clix vs Meizu M6?

    Just wondering, but how do these two compare in terms of sound quality? I'm a bit of a basshead and can't live without a good separate treble/bass boost option and a user adjustable 5 band eq. Do they also both support album art, full screen album art pictures, and user defined...

    Best 60GB solution......refurb iPOD 5G+ RockBox?

    I really need to pick up a 60GB+ dap and am down to either the X5 or iPOD 5G unless something amazing comes out during the upcomming CES. I'm basically just going for form factor, audio battery performance, etc and don't care too much about video playback. Apple's refurbished 5G iPODs for $230...

    Gigabeat S30 vs. Zune & Zen Vision:M - Sound Quality

    I'm in the exact same situation, I want the Gigabeat S60 so bad.......it looks great, has the perfect form factor, and the album art display and interface are awsome. The only problem is the battery life sucks, the EQ supposedly sucks, there's no bass or treble boost, and it's plagued by small...

    Any DAP related rumours for the upcomming CES '07 in January?

    Just wondering if there's any info or speculation about new DAPs being shown at the next CES. iAudio in particular is due for a new flagship player to replace the X5, I'm praying for a 60GB X7 but it'll probably be another year before that happens.

    Question about the Toshiba Gigabeat S series

    I forgot one last thing, can you change the default wallpaper to a picture of your own? Thanks.

    Question about the Toshiba Gigabeat S series

    To be honest, I'm just looking at this thing for music playback. I just want something that can hold my entire library, and the interface+album art display is perfect for what I'm trying to do. My iAudio M3 gets about 8-12Hrs of playback depending on what effects are switched on and whatnot. I...

    Question about the Toshiba Gigabeat S series

    I already have a usb cable that I can use, thanks for the insight though. Basically I'm sold on the Gigabeat due to the interface and the storage size, but I'm concerned about the battery life. A lot of the CNET user reviews state that the battery drains even when the unit is off and that 3-6...

    V-Moda Remix or Sony MDR-E888?

    Yeah these are pretty much to use while walking around campus, I don't want anything with noise canceling or a seal for obvious safety reasons. I've been trying to find some Audiot Technica ATH-CM4/CM5s for a while now but those V-Moda buds look every bit as interesting and I'm only finding good...

    V-Moda Remix or Sony MDR-E888?

    Which of these two ear buds would you go for? Has anybody tried the V-moda buds? Any comparisons or oppinions?

    Question about the Toshiba Gigabeat S series

    Thanks for the reply. My iAudio M3 is filled up and I really don't like having to use the remote, there's too many wires to deal with. I'm just wondering if I'd be alright going from one of the better sounding DAPs to something that's just alright. One last question, I'm pretty behind here and...

    Question about the Toshiba Gigabeat S series

    I might be able to buy a used Gigabeat S60 for cheap with only the ac adapter. I don't think I'd need any of the other accessories, but can somebody tell me what the included software is and if it can be downloaded since I wouldn't have the startup CD? Also, how's the sound quality? And I'm used...

    Any new 30-60GB HD DAPs worth checking out?

    So is it just me or does it seem like there's a real shortage of high capacity HD players on the market today? I've been away from the scene for a while but it basically looks like iPOD, Zune, Toshiba Gigabeat S, Creative Zen Vision M, and iAudio X5 are the only real options. Is there anything...
