    Upgrading Bookshelf speakers and first DAC

    Hi fellow members, I currently own the Hafler Transnova P3000 400w amplifier, and am using stereo mode which outputs 4 ohms per channel at 200w. I have the Tannoy SBM studio monitors which I got for free from my dad, but they do not seem to have much clarity in the midrange which is especially...

    Headphones for 13 year old girl? Beats? (I know, I know...!)

    Consider the V-moda Crossfade M80. I don't own them so I can't comment on the sound, but there are plenty of reviews on the site. They look stylish to me, and they will be more durable than the beats solo. My friend has a pair of beats solo and part of the headphone is cracked although they...

    Scosche IEM856M Reference In-Ear Monitors sometimes $14.99 on Amazon :)

    They called me and left a voicemail. Gave me some BS excuse about how they sent the "wrong item" and I will be refunded. They were just straight up lying to me, very immature and not cool.

    The discovery thread!

    How is the build quality of the cable on these jvc fx40? Do these leak any sound? I am concerned for office use.

    Koss PortaPro+ where to buy in NYC?

    Oh, you can try B&H photo, but I'd call up before you make a trip if its just for the one item. They say out of stock on their online store although if you happen to be in the area you can just stop in. From the reviews they said you can try on $1500 headphones there, I wonder what they have...

    Koss PortaPro+ where to buy in NYC?

    Aww sorry you couldn't find them there. That's odd because last time I went to the J&R downtown they had the portapro on display. I don't remember seeing them anywhere else maybe someone else can help.   Just saw in your initial post you already mentioned J&R. My bad, I glanced over it.

    Koss PortaPro+ where to buy in NYC?

    J&R store in NYC. It's downtown by world trade center, I'm sure they will have a bunch of other headphones you'd be interested if you're a frequent head-fier. I remember they have the portapro on the listening wall, along with the HD650 and HD598. Maybe you can visit the new 9/11 memorial around...

    The Monoprice MP9927 PG 208.. MP8320 (MEP-933)..The $7.11 club..

    Quote:   I'm gonna be honest with you. While the idea sounds appealing to have this IEM reshelled in a custom housing with a better cable (and believe me, I hate the cable) it makes very little sense to spend $100 to improve the comfort/durability of a budget IEM. If you have the money to...

    The Monoprice MP9927 PG 208.. MP8320 (MEP-933)..The $7.11 club..

    For purposes of the review I played everything out of the line out of my active monitors. Does that count as an amp? My computer has a Realtek sound card if it makes a difference.  I had a sansa clip and it broke a while ago so nowadays I'm using my crappy almost broken phone (env touch) for...

    The Monoprice MP9927 PG 208.. MP8320 (MEP-933)..The $7.11 club..

    Overall I am pleased with these headphones and before you say that my criticisms are unwarranted, I have had over 100 hours use on these (95 burning in with pink noise).   The bass is present and has good impact and punch without being overwhelming, the mids are nice and pleasant up until...

    The Monoprice MP9927 PG 208.. MP8320 (MEP-933)..The $7.11 club..

    Ive been wearing my headphones over the ear and the fabric has torn away from the cable under it. I was on the subway and someone's bag snagged my headphones out of my ears. I'm not positive that was the culprit since the angle of the headphones pulls the wire away from the connector anyway when...
