Radiohead - Everything in it's Right Place

I love my Denon D2K's!

My two favorite albums of 2010 were the following:   LCD Soundsystem - This Is Happening The Walkmen - Lisbon

The Walkmen - I Lost You

Kid A.  IMO, this is a song that is much better live than in studio.

Add another Grado fan to the list.  These 225s are simply amazing.  Only have about 20 hours on them so I can't wait to burn them in even more.  Thanks for the recommendation!    Now I just need to figure out this pc/sound card issue.  Could it be a resource (3GB RAM) or a cordless mouse &...

Went to my local audio dealer and walked out of the store with the 225s.   Will the uDAC help with the hiss and skipping I am hearing?  I already own a NuForce Icon Mobile that apparently has a built in DAC.  I must admit that I am a noob and don't know much about DACs, sound cards, amps...

You guys are killing my wallet....I'm now leaning towards the SR-225s.      If I'm going to step it up with some premium cans, my biggest concern now is my sound card.  Not sure what kind it is, but it came stock with my 7 year old PC.  When listening to my digital files, I hear a lot of...

You guys have me convinced to purchase a set of Grado cans over the Sennheiser HD-555s.  Here is some background information before I ask my questions:   1.  They will be used mostly with an iPod and a nuforce icon moblie amp and PC (looking to upgrade my sound card).   2.  Sources will...

Thanks for the response. Overall, I am satisfied with the ER-6i but would say that I am a bit disappointed with the lows. Having said that, I am not looking for something artificial as I don't want to sacrifice the overall quality.

Hi all, First time poster looking for some advice. I am by no means an audiophile, but I am an avid music collector/lover. I thought I had my search narrowed down until I stumbled across some suggestions by the board members. I am looking to upgrade my Etymotic ER-6i. I was debating between...
