Any old fart head-fi'ers still around?
So my wife just gave me back a Sony MD MZ-R70 that she stole from me about 15 years ago, but it's missing the battery. Anybody know what the replacement is? I'm finding contradictory info online.- erikzen

Guitar-fi anyone?
Fun to see this thread still kicking. Guitars are what got me out of my headphone addiction. Sold off everything except a Grado HF1 for old times sake and an AKG 601 because they sound very neutral and are revealing enough to make them effective for critical listening. Started playing and...- erikzen

Awesome! Hopefully I'll run into some of my old headphone buddies! But hope it doesn't rekindle some old habits.- erikzen

Guitar-fi anyone?
Quote: $500 for a refret seems a bit steep to me, especially for a guitar without binding. The fact that it's a vintage piece shouldn't make the job any harder or more expensive, but you do want a very experienced luthier to do the job. There is always a premium for a skilled technician...- erikzen

Guitar-fi anyone?
I recently picked up a Zoom G3, primarily for practicing with headphones. However, the unit comes with tons of features and I'm really happy with the purchase. At $150, it may be the best audio purchase I've ever made in terms of bang for the buck. It has 22 amp sims with cabs, and 94 effects...- erikzen

Closed Studio Monitors for Tracking
That looks like a winner. The frequency response seems to be what I'm looking for and I'm a fan of AKG. I will research those more, for sure.- erikzen

Closed Studio Monitors for Tracking
I need to get a set of closed backed headphones for tracking in my home studio, particularly for vocals and guitar. The closed back headphone of choice these days seems to be the ATH M50, but some reviews say the midrange is a little laid back and the bass is a bit heavy. This is not for...- erikzen

Headphone Amp for Guitar Amp?
I've never been a fan of Line 6 products. Their effects don't sound realistic to me. I did look at the Pandora Mini but that's $100 and I'm not sure about the sound quality either. If I was going to spend more money I'd probably buy an Apogee Jam and play through my iPad and Garageband. ...- erikzen
