    Are KSC-75 good for running?

    Personally, I love the KSC75s for running. I love they are just "there" and don't feel invasive in any way. I use the er6i extensively so its not an IEM thing, its just a matter of comfort while running. However, in the gym, I use Marshmallows. KSC75s are too open, IMO, for noisy gyms and I...

    Where to go to try out headphones?

    Sorry to be off-topic on this, but since this thread is here I thought it might be effective. Wonder if its possible to create a sticky-type thread of locations that Head-fiers from all over the world know for a fact where they can go to test headphones. I'd start it but since I'm pretty new...

    Hissing Sound with 0404 USB and T-Amp

    Hissing Sound with 0404 USB and T-Amp

    Sorry I should have been more clear. Right now, I am using a generic 1/8th mini-to-RCA cable going out of the 0404 USB's rear output (I believe it is the line out) into the RCA inputs of the Trends Ta-10.1. Its the same cable I used from my on board Realtek HD main output mini jack to the...

    Got my Etymotic Er6i but I still hear noise...

    +1 on the foam-tips. Bass is better, IMO, with it as well. Though I have a unique situation in that I can easily get a good seal in my left ear and rarely in my right ear, I think Er6i does a great job of isolating for me on the LA Subway. Since your returning it, let us know if any of your...

    Hissing Sound with 0404 USB and T-Amp

    Hi Everyone, I think this is similar to the other thread about hissing but different device. Also, I tried a couple different sources as well. This was my setup - desktop->trends ta-10->insignia bookshelf. I just bought a 0404 usb to place between desktop ->trends. Now, whenever I turn...

    USB 0404 and Vista = works great

    wow thanks for the heads up! I was under the impression the vista drivers were a nightmare and was dreading a reformat back to xp (computer came with vista and just kept it). And IMO, Vista aint as bad as people make it out to be. This is Microsoft's MO: release an operating system before...

    Computer won't recognize TBAAM

    Hi Everyone, Been browsing for a while and just picked up the TBAAM (starting small) . I am running into some major issues now regarding the drivers. Following what people have said on this forum, I tried to utilize the Windows drivers (C-Media?) by just plugging it in. My computer didn't...
