    Sennheiser Pop-up Store in S.F. and NYC

    I am new to the hi-fi and head-fi world but I am in the SF bay area and would love going down to those Sennheiser stores to check them out.  I'd look forward to meeting some awesome people and checking out some of those new Urbanites

    Headphone Sightings 2

    I was in downtown San Fran yesterday and saw what appeared to be a homeless man wearing some red Beats Solo's and then 2 people wearing some Sennheiser Momentum's.  I have yet to see any of the new Urbanites though, but hopefully that will change as Sennheiser put up 1 of those pop-up stores

    Help with Fiio e6 and soundcard

    I am not sure, i think its just software. I just was not sure if having both active would cause some sort of problem because I know the e6 was designed as a portable amp and I am using it as a desktop one currently

    Help with Fiio e6 and soundcard

    headset or headphone + mic?

    I use the Samson Meteor mic placed right behind my keyboard and it sounds and works great. I have cherry mx blues and it does pick it up but if your using push-to-talk you shouldnt have a problem.  Definitely go separate components instead of all in one though

    First headphone purchase

    Hear it for sure, I have auditioned some of those ULTRA bass headphones and the Beats Pro and it was just too much   I think i wanna stick with over ear though for the time being as they will be used primarily at home
