Thanks a lot for the replies guys, I love this forum. You guys are helpful as ever. I didn't get any comments regarding the sennheiser so I guess I should cross that out. I've also realised that the 250 is better than the 770 which is probably more of a monitoring headphone than a musical...

They're all in the same price range. I normally use my grado 225s for home listening but I need closed cans for when I'm not at home. I listen to music like porcupine tree, the mars volta, etc. which is quite difficult because it gets quite heavy/aggressive at times but there are also these...

I really don't see the point of this little mini argument right now. I believe my question was fairly simple; which is the best out of the current pcdps being sold?

like i said, call me stupid, but i like the physical attachment to the CD for sentimental purposes.

Thanks a lot for the replies. I have thought about just pimping out my mp3 player instead of buying CDs but one of the reasons I want to switch to a pcdp besides the quality is because before i switched to digital audio i would buy less CDs and listen to each other more; it was about getting...

Thank you very much for getting me started. I'll probably eventually go down that route, splurging on a DAC and an AMP (although I already have my bithead, but i may opt for something smaller). It's really weird to see how good pcdps are so hard to find. I'm finding a lot of sony's and...

I used to purchase music using itunes and then I'd listen to it on my computer through a total bithead and my grado 225s when I'm at home, but I'd use an Ipod and a pair of Beyerdynamic 250 headphones when I'm outside, which constitutes for most of my music listening time. I have listened to...

(Oh in case my question sounds absurd since it says on the website, it says monday but my question is whether the deal will still be there after midnight)

Thanks a lot man. I've seen this before but for some reason I assumed it would come included haha. Guess it's another 10$ off the wallet. Haha this is getting ridiculous. My poor, poor wallet

I was going to buy it today but I just realised I have to wait till tomorrow to get the neccesary money. Am I screwed?

I know very little about cabling, and my English isn't particularly great so I can't really get my point across very well, but I'm buying the Headroom Micro DAC and I'm wondering if I need to buy any extra cables for it. I'm also buying the Micro Amplifier, and I know i'll need a 1/8th to 1/8th...

I've only just bought a pair of Grado 225s and they're my first proper headphones. They sound much better than anything I've ever heard, but I know I can do even better by getting a DAC and an amplifier. I'm very close to buying the Total Bithead, because I use my computer as a source but I...

Oh, so I guess it isn't a very good idea then. Guess my guitar amp shouldn't be used for for headphone related stuff then.. Thanks man!

I have Grado 225 headphones and I play them off my Dell's soundcard. It sounds good, but not amazing. I have about 200$ to spend on improving the sound of my headphones. I have absolutely no idea what would be better for me. Should I buy a headphone amp? A better external usb soundcard? I could...

I have the Grado 225s and while they sound really good from my laptop (And I mean that in a relative sense since these are my first headphones that cost more than 10$), I feel like they could sound truely epic with a guitar amp. I'm getting a Roland Microcube ampflier in a few days and I want to...
