    Best 1st gen iPhone headphone adapter?

    Does anyone on head-fi (or another board) make a custom, or hand-built, adapter? I'd rather buy one of those if available.

    Best 1st gen iPhone headphone adapter?

    I'll be using KSC35's, Marshmallows, maybe K 81 DJ's.

    Best 1st gen iPhone headphone adapter?

    Or is there much of a difference? I just got a 1st gen iPhone and thought you guys could help me choose the right one. With so many threads containing "iPhone" and "adapter" I was having trouble swimming through the search results. Thanks!

    iPod classic HDD noise & vibration - Normal?

    The mini has a Microdrive hard disk in it. I guess Microdrives are just really quiet. I should have mentioned that I can clearly hear the drive in the classic when it's sitting on my desk, roughly 2 feet from my head. No need to hold it up to my ear.

    iPod classic HDD noise & vibration - Normal?

    Hey, fellas. I just bought a 160GB classic to replace my 2G mini (seriously). This being said, and apparently having never used a friend's 4G or 5G iPod in a quiet environment, I don't know if the very noticable sounds and vibration caused be my new classic's hard disk are normal. I first...

    Best vintage Marantz receivers?

    I'm looking to get a vintage Marantz receiver. Thus far I've read (in another forum) that any 22xx models are well regarded. Does anyone have anything to add to that, or possibly disagree with that? What are the most recommended, or respected, models for amp quality, all vintage models...

    Good sub-$100 DAP?

    And would there be any reason to get the 2GB Insignia over the 4GB? Is there any difference other than capacity?

    Good sub-$100 DAP?

    Hey. I'm looking to get a decent 1 or 2 GB DAP for a gift, and would like to spend as close to $50 as possible. I'm a little flexible on that, and if something with more memory is possible, that would be nice, but I doubt that's the case in my price range. And I'd choose a higher quality player...

    Need HDMI interconnect recommendations

    My friend is getting a beautiful new Samsung LCD and needs a good HDMI cable to attach his HD digital cable box, then possibly another source as well. What are some recommended cables? Thanks.

    Recommended case/pouch for EP-630 & KSC75?

    Just got my dad the EP-630 for Christmas, and he wishes he had something to carry and store them in. Any ideas? And I also wish I had something for my KSC75. I know some of you guys must have figured that one out already. Thanks.

    Most comfortable IEM's for dad?

    I had decided on the im616, because I spent so much time deciding on them for myself, and I like mine. But I am kinda worried about him thinking they feel too intrusive, so I'm changing my mind and going with the EP-630. It's also helpful that they are much less expensive, in case he ends up...

    Most comfortable IEM's for dad?

    Can the UM1 only be ordered directly from Westone? $110 is a bit out of my price range.

    Most comfortable IEM's for dad?

    I think comfort will be a major issue and a deciding factor in whether or not he enjoys using them. I'd have him try my im616's, but I want whatever I get for him to be a surprise. Are there any certain models that are known for being generally more comfortable? I'm looking for something entry...
