    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

    These look like very nice players. I almost bought an a15? today.   I have just 1 question to Sony (& maybe other manufacturers):   Where.. is.. the.. clip..   How can you make a "walkman" without a clip..   A CLIP!!   Thnx in advance    (sorry, but a carrying bag/purse, how to say...

    Yamaha EPH-100

    After i read this thread & becoming aware of the aquatic issues of the eph-100, i ordered another pair. (they arrived ok in the Lowlands, thnx Audioaffair -) And indeed, the new set behaves exactly the same (as expected). Very "neutral" sound, good separation etc. and.. after listening for 1...

    Yamaha EPH-100

    I just read your post..   I think i might had that happen to me..   A few weeks ago i ordered a eph-100 with the only online seller in my country. They arrived. The 1st day i was very happy..fantastic sound..neutral, good mids, i listened to the phones all day. Then 2nd day: after...

    What about WinFF (http://winff.org).    Gui for ffmpeg. Has presets, can use commandline etc. Linux & windows.   Works great. Like it a lot.

    Senn HD598 vs DT770 for gaming/music. Need help deciding.

    I wouldn't worry too much about the impedance/ability to drive. On my card, there are 3 gain settings: <64 ohm, 64-300ohm, 300-600ohm. My 300ohm headphone can be easily driven at the lowest gain. You then have a ..slightly.. thinner sound, but still very good (bass also). But..i am not a...

    Is Sansa Clip + really that good?!

    In search of a set of smaller phones for the clip+, i gave it another try & i bought a pair of sennh. cx870 iem(s). (saw them on a discount somewhere, cheap). Although i think the hd595 still sound significantly better, the cx870 are rather good/good enough, especially after a few hours "burn...

    Is Sansa Clip + really that good?!

    Yes, you are right. I remember, turning the bass a bit up, and noticed the treble muffling. One would expect however, that such an issue would be resolved by a firmware update..(a long time ago! =).

    Is Sansa Clip + really that good?!

    Thanks for the tip!   Yes i noticed that, for some reason, turning on the (flat) eq, the sound gets muffled. I will try it out.

    Is Sansa Clip + really that good?!

    Just got the clip+. Stock firmware. (normal i listen to asus st/hd600, so i guess i am used to a reasonable "decent" sound, not uber-fi, but no crap either). At first i used the stock earplugs. No..no..just awfull (crap ie's). Then i bought sennh. cx281 ie's. ...

    Jie Extreme Player 2.7.2 released

    Yes..yes.. a very good player..i hear a positive difference. Highs are a little (but significant) more detailed, smooth, airy, have good separation. Bass is a little less strong in volume (which i like), so i do not need an eq anymore, with ST/hd600 opamp at max gain setting. Don't get me...

    Pkshan's Foobar 2000 Project

    Hello headfiers, Just want to give my opinion about the "different flavours" of foobar. Using stock foobar2000 with kernel streaming as my "gold standard" for years. (Wasapi is fine, i find it somewhat "dry" sounding. Ds has a little less crisp highs/detail, but a "softer/smoother" sound...
