    Calling all RUSH fans!

    What's very interesting about rush is there shifting phases. Departing from moving pictures there is a clear new sound to there music in signals. The began to incorporate significantly more keyboard work into there music, much to Alex's dismay. I would say the somewhat more digital sound years...

    All around headphone advice (Gaming, Music, Movies)

    Thump in bass is known as sub bass. The problem with sub bass is that it's not particularly well produced on headphones. Even with speakers, it typically takes a sub to really get any feel of realism. Personally i prefer more punchy, upper  bass. Which would be more suited to you rock tastes...

    Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread

    I would agree that a standalone amp is you best bet. I have found that some amp/dac combos lack a little extra umph. It makes good sense that this is simply derived from a lack of voltage. Many praise the driving ability of tube amp, but I honestly can confirm or deny that. But what I would like...

    If it hasn't been said a million times before, it hasn't been said enough: Journey's Escape....and Frontiers for that matter.

    Drum-fi

    I've been beating on stuff since the first grade.   Now a days I have a sexy 5 piece Tama Starclassic Birch-Bubinga kit. Oh man is she beautiful. Both in the way she sounds and the way she looks. She's a limited edition only 25 ever made.   Now stick a DW7000 bas pedal on her and that...

    cover song that works!

    I feel like i may be one of the few who actually likes Aliens Ant Farm's Smooth Criminal...   But then again, I suppose I enjoy the catchyness of pop with the hard edge of rock.   For example Silverstein's rendition of Apologize is far more appealing to me than One Republic's.

    Audio-Technica ATH-M50 or Shure SRH840 ?

    I would take the 840 myself. I've had my pair for a while now and can attest to its gr4eat build. I know I had the chance to audition the m50 at6 a fairly recent audio event. To me, the M50 just felt cheaply built. The Shure, despite the draw-back of the weight makes up for itself with an...

    looking for my first pair of "proper" headphones.

    over the ear will sacrifice a lot in the ways of looks in most cases. Um, in that range though i'd go for the shure srh 840.  It's a personal favorite of mine. Decently balanced, a touch of mid emphasis, a nice sound stage. Theyre easy to drive. As well as isolate well. though they are a touch...

    looking for my first pair of "proper" headphones.

    Id say the phiaton ms 300 just based on you need forgood looks. Goodness. They are like headphone supermodels. Bass wise they should be good for you. Theyre a touch on the bright side. Bass is incredily tactile. Perhaps a touch to much so for some. And il admit it can get a touch overshadowed at...

    Review by 'thecansmancan' on item 'VSONIC GR04 Flagship Pro Audiophile Earphones'

        Hidden amidst an array of confusing sister models, the Vsonic GR04 Pro Flagship Edition is one of the best values in IEM's. The Pro Flagship is second only to the much acclaimed GR07 in the Vsonic lineup; however at about half the price proves a far better value. Coupling intuitive...

    Review by 'thecansmancan' on item 'Phiaton MS 300 Premium Headphones With Double Shelled Carbon Fiber Enclosure and Closed-Ear Type Rear Enclosure For Concert Hall Quality Sound'

      Bright and aggressive, these cans certainly aren't for everyone. However, they have this euphoric presence about them that draws me back time and time again. As well, their small size and low impedance make them the ideal portable...if only they isolated just a little better. At the $67...
