    What Senns compare to SR60s?

    To bring them closer to your ears just bend the headband, it is metal under the vinyl (don't crease it though, so apply equal pressure to both sides). To reduce shrillness let them play for awhile. The others mentioned "burn in" this is a fancy "audiophile" term that means let the drivers loosen...

    RS1 or HD650?

    I say the RS1s only because you say rock. When I think rock I think RS1 (Grado) when I hear classical I think Senn 650. IMHO you should go with the RS1s. I think you will be happier. I think the Senns will be too veiled and laid back for what you want to listen to. If you are listening to...

    HD 555 => Amp suggestion for PC?

    I listen to my Wintel laptop with my Senn HD555 out of a Total Airhead fed by an Creative Audigy 2 PCMCIA A better solution sonically would be the Total Bithead. How can you argue with the simplicity and wonderful sound that results? It's portable too! Jon

    PCMIA Soundcard

    I am looking for a PCMIA soundcard so I can use my laptop as a source again. I broke the headphone jack. I am looking, as most of us are, for the most bang for the buck. This will not be used very often, just once in awhile. I am willing to spend around $100. I have only looked at the...
