Hope you enjoy that choice. I think that at the clearance prices the ue line is a steal!- Gordo68

JVC flats are decent for under $15 at amazon. Right at that limit I would consider Ultimate Ears 4000 headphones that really sound great on my ps vita. I just picked up a set of Koss Porta pros from amazon for $25 bucks but I think the price went back up on those.- Gordo68

New (to me) Sennheiser HD580 - Best portable amp? Maybe a better DAP too...
Ok, so I went in on a lark to my local Goodwill and I looked in at their electronics stuff behind the counter and my eyes almost popped out as I saw a pair of HD580's staring up at me. $50 and some change later and I am in my car looking over the headphones and the DSP pro that came with it. The...- Gordo68

Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)
Bargain rig here! Sansa Fuze 4 gb($10 used), Monoprice 8323 ($29), Fiio E11 ($60). Right at a hundred bucks before I add in the 32 gb MicroSd and the upgraded headphone cord. Pretty happy with results so far, but looking at some slightly classier headphones to use with it.- Gordo68

The monoprice are very nice for the money. I really like the sound and the replaceable cable makes for a nice touch too, The build quality is plasticky but seemingly durable, time will tell as I have only had them for a couple of weeks. I think you would be pleasantly surprised with them.- Gordo68

Skullcandy Hesh 2.0 Review - Avoid at all costs.
I found the Hesh 2.0 in a display at Target last night. I tried them and, while it may have been the source, they sounded a lot better to me than the previous generation Hesh. To be honest they sounded a lot better than the Sony XB600 set up next to them on a different source. The Skullcandy...- Gordo68

Opinions wanted - Should I pickup a Sansa Fuze vs my Sony S764?
Ok, so I must be destined to have a Fuze as I found an ad for someone selling 2 Fuze (not sure what the plural is) for $10 each. A black 2gb and a red 4gb so I am picking them both up tomorrow to hope I get at least one good one. I was looking for an LOD online and I saw one that ended in a...- Gordo68

Opinions wanted - Should I pickup a Sansa Fuze vs my Sony S764?
Quote: Wow, I hadn't even considered that! If I had to use an external battery then that would eliminate any chance that I had to use an LOD cable thus rendering the whole thing moot. I guess I will wait until Thursday when I am supposed to get my E11 delivered and see how pleased I am with...- Gordo68

Opinions wanted - Should I pickup a Sansa Fuze vs my Sony S764?
Quote: I kind of felt that they would source the same with LOD cables although I had never heard of jitter as defined in that article. I am pretty sure that i am going to get the fuze anyways as I think they are going to take my offer. This will probably be my main player if I can find an...- Gordo68

Opinions wanted - Should I pickup a Sansa Fuze vs my Sony S764?
Okay, so I have a Sansa Clip original, a Philips Raga, and most recently a Sony S764 walkman as my portable players. I am considering picking up a Sansa Fuze (not a plus) off of a local craigslist ad because I am not entirely happy with the results I am getting on my Monoprice 8320 and 8323 with...- Gordo68
