    Utah Has Nothing, I Swear

    Your Favourite Pink Floyd Album?

    Sansa Clip vs. Sony NWZ-B105F

    Just so you guys thinking about Sansa players know, I had an older Sansa and for whatever reason, my computer no longer recognizes it. It still works. I just can't put any new music on it or take any off. I'm just stuck with what was on there. I babied that thing. I never dropped it, banged it...

    Colored sound?

    I decided a long time ago that good sound really can't be defined. It's different for everyone. There are some basic things that will probably sound pretty good to everyone but look at what you have here on Head-Fi (and if you have some time, dip into discussions on audiophilia on Google...

    Are headphone amps overpriced

    The problem with being a poor audiophile with a headphone hobby is this. Most people don't give a damn about sound quality and/or don't have any idea what good sound actually is. They'll go down to Wal Mart, buy the cheapest headphones (that say "For digital" on them, informatively) they can...

    Blu Tak mod on open cans?

    Hey. Thanks for the responses guys! And yeah. Like I said. I don't see why the blu tak can't help on most headphones. Open or closed. Like I said, if the earcups vibrate, that has to translate into sound. And I kind of doubt the earcups themselves are actually designed to function as part of...

    Blu Tak mod on open cans?

    I wish I'd thought of the felt thing before I put them back together. On the pics, I will probably take some pics next time I take them apart. Unfortunately, when I put them back together this time, I had to painstakingly cut out little squares of paper towel to fit because I put putty on the...

    Blu Tak mod on open cans?

    Well, I found that the poster tak works well enough. Although Dynamat may very well be more effective. I did find that all the excessive vibration is very hard to get rid of and the bass is still just a tiny bit muddy in spite of it all. This could simply be a driver issue but I think there is...

    Blu Tak mod on open cans?

    Hi all. I apologize in advance if this has been covered extensively (and it probably has been). I did try searching for it but the results were spotty. I've seen a lot of discussion about the blu tak mod making a dramatic difference on closed cans. But I haven't seen much discussion about...

    Do you believe in cables?

    I think there might be a little merit to it. But I think it really depends on the quality of the stock cables. If they meet certain basic standards, I really don't think some fancy, expensive cable is going to make that much of a difference in the sound. Having said that, I guess I should...
