So I had a pair of KSC-75s sitting around unused because I could never get used to the ear clips, and my cat just chewed the cord all to heck on my K81DJs.  I like the way the 75s sound and since I was going to recable the 81DJs as a result of my crazy cat anyway I figured what the hey, and...

Cowon D2? SOunds great, video, SD card slot that handles the new cards, UMS...

It's so strange. I had the EBs for a while about a year or so ago and a lot of the reviews here universally called it the worst IEM available. I liked them but had a chance to listen to the SF5Ps, liked them better, so I sold my EBs and bought the 5's. Oh and far as the 5's being huge....IMO...

I dislike those charts. It's like studying sound speed profiles. Real world uses often contradict everything a graph can "tell" you. For purely analytical comparison it probably has it's uses, but how can your graph personal satisfaction or enjoyment...?

I've washed and dried my Marshmallows exactly 3 times in the washing machine then dried in a full size dryer. Twice they were accompanied by my silver ipod shuffle. Both still work great as my workout rig, no issues. However, I did ensure the ipod was bone dry (believe it or not, there was still...

The material itself is a kids modeling "clay" I found at a local dept store here in Japan. I don't have the original plastic wrapper it came in, but I'm going to get some more so I'll post the name of the product then. As far as the safety(?) How would this be any more unsafe than using the...

Awesome work getting the site back up and running! I really enjoy visiting and it would have been a bummer to not see the site come back to it's former glory. Anywho, with my down time I experimented with a neat material I discovered a few weeks back. Just got around to actually getting down...

Simon, You know, I'm not sure that wives-tale is true. I don't even wear glasses yet. Oh, and I like watching movies on my D2 too. :-) R/ K

I have a trekstor vibez and I'm only semmi-impressed with it. It's great if you leave it on the desk and listen. Put it in your pocket and that huge shuffle dial simply sucks. Also, mine has started to spontaneously turn off. Recently I purchased a Cowon D2. Aside from a few rough edges...

Look, you know at some point you have to just accept the fact that if you want a Grado or any other product, it costs what it costs. Comparing pricing across borders is crazy and especially about something that is just so trivial. I mean, haircuts cost a dime in India. I don't haggle about...

I've been semi-lurking at the Vibes thred and really bought into the hype around these phones. So, as an impulse buy, I bought a set when I went to pick up a shuffle. Truth be told, I was underwhelmed, to say the least. Bass heavy...reminded me of my old SF5EBs. I burned them in with pink...
