Sony S755 Walkman initial impressions
Thanks for the review. Does it drive the ATH-M50s well without an amp?- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Yes, it has been confirmed that the X does not decode WMAL. Quote: Do you remember which version (year) it was?- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Wikipedia claims that WMA Lossless is supported by both the Sony Walkman A series and S series. Quote: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Media_Audio#Windows_Media_Audio_Lossless- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Quote: Thank you for that. I've always suspected this was the case. Anyway if anyone can confirm that the Sony Walkman S series (or A) accepts WMA Lossless, please let me know. If the Sony Walkman can handle WMAL, then I can stick with a 16 GB.- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Quote: Wait, are you going to re-rip to WMA or WMA Lossless? As I understand it, they're different. And I don't know if X supporting WMA necessarily means it also supports WMA Lossless.- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Quote: I've considered going the WAV route, but the files are just so overwhelmingly large. I'm finally getting a new set of cans (my first pair; ATH-M50) and now I need a new player ever since returning my Cowon J3 32GB. I'm starting to regret returning it since it took FLAC, which are...- thenightman

WMA Lossless on Sony Walkmans?
Quote: That's kind of the point. To save space, it'd be nice to have the same quality as WAV but smaller file size.- thenightman

I know that the Sony Walkman S/A series support WMA, but does that include WMA lossless? Anyone ever try it?- thenightman

Closed-back headphones for under $120??
I know I'm too late to the party, but have you taken a look at the Audio-Technica ATH-M50s? I hear there a little better than the HD 280s and they're within the same price range.- thenightman

Are the Sennheiser HD595s still among the top choices for entry-level hi-fi cans?
Quote: Yes, I have looked at the Sony MDR V6, but from what I can tell an amp is more necessary than with these 595s. For the most part, I'll be listening to hip hop, rock, rap, and heavy metal.- thenightman

I've tried my hand at many different IEMs and for some reason, I can never get used to sticking those things in my ear. Plus, the sound quality just wasn't cutting it (and I had the MTPC!). So now I'm looking to get me some full sized headphones. Ideally they'll sound and feel better than...- thenightman

Monster Turbine Pro Copper
Mark, I know exactly what you mean. Sure, these may be my first top-tier IEMs and I have to say that while the bass, MIDS, and treble are impressive... the soundstage is quite lacking. I guess I just didn't expect it to be this small. Most of the stage is completely in my head and not...- thenightman
