I do most of the intense music listening when i'm on the bus or the train. That's when my thoughts all centralise on the music i'm listening to, I analyse and visualize every song i listen to. and it transports me to another world.

 I came across a brilliant article about “The Holy Trinity”. No, i didn’t get it off the Catholic News, instead i got it off Stereophile.   Here’s the link! if you’re interested. http://stereophile.com/asweseeit/the_holy_trinity/   The article explains the ‘The Holy Trinity in...

haha. i get the same hiss thing when i listen to my ipod using my sennheiser hd 280 pro. what i did to solve my problem temporarily is adjust the eq to my player, such that the treble isn't too prominent. it's free. but of course, getting an amp would be better

thanks! will check those out. it's just a temporary measure, as long as it doesn't spoil my amp.

how much's a record cleaner? i just use a cloth!

I was thinking of getting an amp suited for my livewire trips, however my speakers for my turntable need an amp too. So was thinking instead of buying both at one shot, could i use the headphone amp for my sound system as a temporary sort of thing. I know it wouldn't work as well, considering...

Just before i sleep, i'll yank out my headphones, and play some music according to what i feel like listening to at the moment. When i'm sad, i'll listen to mellow ones etc. I'll immerse myself in them, sometimes thinking i'm in a music video. Everything in tandem with the beat, with the lyrics...

Hey thanks! so i guess there isn't any quick and easy way to increase the quality of the music in my ipod, then. or is there?

I was wondering, if cnverting .mp3 to lossless wouldn't increase the quality. then, would converting 128kbps.mp3 to 320kbps.mp3 increase quality??

i've been deliberating whether to get myself amplifiers to get the best out of my iems. but the cost, and the fact that it'll look like a bomb, and it isn't exactly portable, makes me think twice.

hey, erm, well i don't think there are any customs below $200, at least customs that have multiple drivers. but the cheapest ones around are definitely livewires. for dual drivers, they cost just 249. which, if u ask me, is a real bargain. the sound is comparable to UEs and Westones too, i've...
