    XLR Headphone Cable

    I saw in headphone.com that Sennheiser HD 600 has XLR cable for blockhead. What is the use of XLR? Because I don't think HD 600 can make good use of balanced signal.

    Going to Australia and Hong Kong, what to see and buy...?

    Of course in USD, but the MG Head OTL sold out very quickly. It depends on how much "luck" you have.

    Going to Australia and Hong Kong, what to see and buy...?

    Are there any sonic differences between a original CD and a burnt copy?

    My experience is: Using Kodak gold (74 min) For better quality cd(eg. LSD of Enigma), the CDR give less detail and transparent sound But for poor quality cd(eg. non-digitally remestered slippery when wet of Bon Jovi), CDR give better sound in bass and air feel

    Have anyone had these hearing experiences(/problem?)

    1. After 2 years of hearing from headphone with very low volume (sound that I can barely heard. I just wanted to hear some sounds when I do my homework), I found that the TV volume was too loud, with volume unchanged, and I need to lower down the volume to ease pain in my ears. At low TV...
