Subwoofers: HSU STF-2 vs. Sunfire SDS-12
Thanks for your reply. Suppose I forget the Sunfire, and instead compare a larger HSU model, the VTS-2 MK4, with the SVS PB-1000. Which would you choose and why? -
Subwoofers: HSU STF-2 vs. Sunfire SDS-12
Which would you buy, the HSU Research STF-2 or the Sunfire SDS-12, and why? Suppose the prices were identical (which they are not, the Sunfire is considerably more). Listening will be 70% music and 30% movies. Listening room is 19 feet long by 16 feet wide by 7.5 feet tall. There is plenty...- lbholde

"Hear-through" IEMs?
I ordered Comply T-400 Isolation Earphone Tips and Sony EPEX10A/BLK Hybrid Replacement Earbuds. I read in the Amazon comments that it was difficult to make the Sony tips fit the Monoprices, but that it could be done. I figured that between those two and the stock tips, that I would find...- lbholde

"Hear-through" IEMs?
Wow, thanks for posting that thread! There is a lot of information in there, and I will be going through it. In the mean time, if anyone has any personal suggestions, please post. I think my title was not good. They don't have to be IEMs. They just need to stay on. But I don't want a...- lbholde

"Hear-through" IEMs?
I know the title is an oxymoron. What I'm looking for is an in-ear headphone that won't fall out (earbuds fall out of my ears) that sounds like a good IEM, but does not block external sound. I'm used to the Etymotic sound signature (ER4P, ER6i, MC5). I am trying to turn over a new leaf and be...- lbholde

Soundmagic pl-30 20.00 shipped
I bought these and was very disappointed. They've been promoted here as if they were the "KSC75s of IEMs" but they are nowhere near the KSC75s in relative sound quality. They sound like cheap earbuds to me. With these, you get what you pay for. To put things in perspective, in my opinion...- lbholde
