    Best Music Phone For Me Under $300?

    Nokia 5800XM sounds like a good choice, but never go for the N-Gage series, they aren't that good of a player. If you're looking something else than a Nokia, you can try Sony Ericsson Walkman series :)

    Proper burn-in technique

    Proper burn-in technique

    i've read articles bout the benefits of burn-in especially on dynamic hphones, but im kinda confused on what kind of burn-in is suitable for headphones in general as theres pink, brown, white burn-ins, theres frequency sweep and the list goes on. Also how long does the burn-in process takes?
