MEElec vs. Brainwavz, Sub $50 IEM Help
Been listening to the CX21 a lot lately. Excellent for metal. Love the balanced signature with solid, tight low-end.- sel00264

Klipsch S4 vs Audio-technica ES55 vs AKG Q460 or vs something like that..
I can't comment on the AT's. I can highly recommend the S4's though. I have been using them since 2009, and they remain my favorite earphones. I have used Klipsch X5 (a major step above the S4, but discontinued now, and an armature design, so very different sound), Ultimate Ears 700, Super-Fi...- sel00264

S4i's and Shure Olives....super quick questions
Can't help you much with the Shure Olive's but I know I have used Comply tips on the S4's, and you can easily look up which ones you need on the Comply website, search by the drop down menu, click on Klipsch, if I remember correctly.- sel00264

Sennheiser HD238 vs AKG K450?
Yes, the Sennheiser PX100-ii should take care of that for you. Way more bass than the 238, too much for me in fact, and they fit much more snugly on the ears.- sel00264

Good Sub-$100 Headphones for Metal
This may have been asked before. What I am looking for is suggestions on headphones in this price range that are capable of faithfully reproducing the detail and technicality of modern metal and its various subgenres. In other words, very fast music. Something with exceptionally tight bass...- sel00264

Nano 6G
I've been really considering the 16gb Nano 6G, but I am worried about storage capacity. How much capacity do you get in reality? Usually its something like 15gb. In iTunes, I have a total of just under 18gb, and some of it I wouldn't even put on the Nano. Wondering if I just rerip some of...- sel00264

No worries, as the UE700 are excellent in my opinion, assuming you are not a bass fiend.- sel00264

Ultimate Ears 700 Appreciation Thread!
I had the 700's last year, and when I sold them off for certain reasons, I was dying to get them back again. Now, they come with new packaging and they actually come with different silicone tips. The packaging is specifically Logitech packaging now, same packaging as the UE500 and 350's...- sel00264

Integrated 7.1 PC audio? Is it decent?
Thanks, one more question, how difficult is it changing sound cards? I have never upgrade a desktop before, so I have little experience opening the thing up and upgrading stuff. I will look into the Asus sound cards, didn't even realize they were a player in upgrading sound cards. I always...- sel00264

Integrated 7.1 PC audio? Is it decent?
Since nobody actually answered my original question, perhaps I should assume that integrated 7.1 surround audio is no good and its worth investing in a sound card?- sel00264

Integrated 7.1 PC audio? Is it decent?
So most desktops ship with 7.1 integrated audio, but some manufacturers like Dell, HP, and Velocity Micro offer the ability to upgrade to a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio card ... is it worth the upgrade for headphones and my 2.1 speaker system (H/K Soundsticks)?- sel00264
