Thanks all, I just plan to eventually upgrade to a nice pair of headphones, but indeed in the far future. I'm picking up a used d6 instead of a bithead but thanks for all the help and input. I think it's a prime place to start out, no longer feeling overwhelmed :)   Dmyster

Hey all, questions, I always have some haha. I've always been a casual classical listener but recently I've really started to love it. I've been looking for some cds to purchase but have learned that recording/mastering qualities vary quite a bit and have no knowledge whatsoever concerning what...

There's one in the fore sale section for $300 (USD) obo now if you can afford a slight increase in budget link

I was someone walking around with Steelseries Siberia v2's... and someone else with a pair of S4's, i was pleasantly surprised. Last week I saw someone on the subway with UM2s and I was quite taken aback, that was the first time I've someone(else) with iems.

Hey all, I'm in a little bit of a pickle. I joined head-fi a little while ago and am an avid reader. I've got a pair of Ultrasone 900s and Westone 4's. I listen mostly classical, with some dubstep/electronic thrown in played from my ipod/macbook pro (whose noise is beginning to drive me batty)...

I found this description of the 4R on Engadget link   It just says that the 4R will be $50 more expensive, come with removable cable, and have "achieve an extremely tight tolerance of +/- 2dB between earpieces".

That advice is not...unwise... I bet you get that a lot, sorry folks it was too tempting    Quote:  

Awesome, thanks for all the responses guys. I'll attempt to get myself into .cd and those sites prove quite helpful JRG1990.   Happy listening 

Haha, nope, coming soon though apparently.

I attempted to use Pandora but found it to be unavailable in Canada due to "licensing constraints", thanks though.

Quote: I don't mean directly, just as a whole. Converting was a poor choice of wording, perhaps upgrading? Essentially re-ripping/*acquiring*. My problem is I cannot find a lot of dubstep, and what I do find is generally of poor quality. Usually...mp3 *gasp* /ohthehorror! and not even...

I'd say a little of both. I'm knowledgeable about lossless, and have converted what I can to lossless. I was hoping to find more sources for good quality dubstep. Where do you get yours?

I need some help. I listen to a decent amount of dubstep, but my 900 pros are proving quite revealing of the music I have. Where do you get your dubstep?   Also, feel free to recommend some artists :) I'm a huge fan of 12th Planet, Fytch, Figure, and Sub Focus  Who do you guys like?

(first time using edit feature, it created another post sorry)

I don't exactly recall but I believe I played: 12th Planet - Bass Ships Doctor P - Sweet Shop Sub Focus - Alpha Centauri Figure - Red Raider/Super Mega Death Ray Ajapai - Brain
