    IEM with strong cable... any suggestions?

    The Sennhesier IE series have very good cables, I own the IE7 and it's very sturdy, should say the IE8 would be the same, seeing as that's the more likely model that your friend would go for considering budget.

    Sennheiser Appreciation - My personal thanks to Sennheiser.

    I agree in the limited experience I've had. I'm pretty new the world of higher end music equipment, and I own one set of IEM's (IE7) and one set of home cans, (HD580) which came today infact, and they're both fantastic (wasn't expecting much from the HD580's straight out of my soundcard, they...

    Do your friends understand your obsession with audio?

    When I bought my Sennheiser IE7's and had some custom earpieces done for them, a lot of my friends are like "What!? That much just for sound" Same when I told them I'm getting a vinyl set up. Others are a bit more understanding and think along the lines of "If you enjoy it, it's worth spending...

    Too many people here use great cans with bad amps or no amps

    Hi, I'm a bit new to this myself, and would just like to ask, seeing as good headphones being run on poor amps are the subject here would the NAD C135BEE amp be suitable to drive some HD600's. I've been offered them in a package with a turntable (Pro-Ject Debut III) and phono stage (Pro-Ject...

    HD600 + NAD C315 BEE + Pro-Ject Phono Box II + Pro-Ject Debut III?

    Hi guys would like your opinions on this please. After some E-mail communication with a local sound equipment store, they are willing to offer me a reduced package on these items for my first Vinyl set up. They have asked me to phone tomorrow morning so we can do some negotiating and arrange...

    Review of the Little-Dot MKIII Tube Headphone Amp/Pre-Amp

    Hi, quick question, this thread says this product is a preamp/amp. Does that mean that it has a phono stage for a turntable? Or do I have this wrong? I'm new to all this stuff and I'm trying to get my first Vinyl set up.

    Looking for my first turntable, got around £200, Pro-Ject Debut III a good choice?

    Yeah, I think I'll get the Debut Mk III, haven't heard a bad thing about it, and it seems to offer the best value for money in my price range. It comes with a cartridge (Ortofon OM5e) which I'll upgrade at a later date. I'll keep a look out for a used Rega, they're not too common over here...

    Looking for my first turntable, got around £200, Pro-Ject Debut III a good choice?

    Hi, I'm looking to get my first Vinyl set up, and have come across the Pro-Ject Debut III for £155. I've had a look at some reviews and they all seem very good, so is it a good choice? I'll be using some HD580's with it, so if any of you want to offer some help, I'd very appreciate advice on...

    Headphone recommendation around £200?

    Right, sorry to up this again, but my topic in the dedicated source section has died a fair bit. I'm planning on getting some HD580's instead of the HD600's for my Vinyl set up. Will I just need a turntable and an amp to complete the set up or do i need something more? I am looking to...

    Turntable and Amp for use with HD600?

    Help, please? I'm going into my nearest city to have a look and possibly buy tomorrow as I want to get this bought before the new year, because VAT goes back up on 1st Jan.

    Turntable and Amp for use with HD600?

    Right, I have decided to go for some HD580's instead of HD600's. Excluding headphones I am looking to spend about £300. So apart from headphones what else do I need? Just an Amp and Turntable? Or do I need more? This is my local stores website Could you tell me which products on there...
