Yeah, the beta driver expired on me this morning too. What a bunch of crap...making a driver that expires! Anyway, I just uninstalled the beta driver and installed the official Windows XP driver and it works fine under Windows Vista. I got one error message during the installation, but I just...

If your order with Fascination Products doesn't work out, then you might try purchasing the headphones from one of Head-Fi's sponsors. Even at full price, the K81DJ is an excellent value! K81DJ at Headroom: http://www.headphone.com/products/he...kg-k-81-dj.php International Shipping Info...

I just got my K81DJ last night and I'm really liking it! Sounds great out of my iRiver iHP-120 and sounds very good out of the Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro USB device that I use with my laptop and on my work PC. The skull crushing death grip of the headband was unbearable at first, but...

My K501's are mated to a Rockhopper M3 (AD843 opamps) + external STEPS and an Eastsound CD-E5 as the source. The result = PURE AUDIO BLISS! Yes, my wallet is still in a coma from all the expense, but I think it's gonna survive. Seriously though, before coming to Head-Fi, I knew next to nothing...

I just read through this old thread and thought I'd add my voice to the chorus of others singing praises for the K501. The K501 just does it for me and nothing else I've tried has ever made me want to abandon them. I even spent a week with the K701 but I just didn't find it as appealing as the...

I recently bought the AKG K14P earbuds and I like them. They're a little bit bigger than other earbuds I've owned and that makes them less comfortable in my ear, but they sound better than any of my other buds. I bought mine at Buy.com for $22.59 shipped.

Congratulations on your new GLite! I have a GLite too and absolutely love it! It produces wonderfully clean, detailed sound that never fatigues my ears, even after hours of listening. For the money, it's hard to do better than the GLite (IMHO, of course). Happy listening! -init6

I recently bought the AKG K14P earbuds and I like them very much. They're a bit larger than other earbuds I've owned and this makes them less comfortable in my ears, but they sound great. They're cheap too - I bought mine for about $22 shipped from Buy.com. All the best, -init6
