anyone?

i apologize in advance for the noob post, i'm new to Head-Fi, and i know nothing about sound cards. my desktop is soon to go under some upgrading.. currently, i have an NVIDIA nForce APU. i'm always listening to music, and i watch a lot of movies as well. i'm not a gamer. my speakers...

where is a good place to buy them from? i was originally going to wait to buy them until i went to japan this summer, but prices don't seem to be any cheaper (at least not enough to make me wait a few more months!!). the audio-technica singapore web site isn't working for me, but so far i have...

what about fitting the soft sleeves over the foam tips as some people have done? will that secure the soft sleeve on the er6i?

i'm very close to purchasing the er6i, but before i take the plunge i wanted to ask which soft flex sleeve fits the er6i: the ones for the E1c/E3c/E4c/E5c, or the one for the E2c? link to soft flex sleeves it sounds like these soft flex sleeves are pretty comfortable and don't go as far into...

i've heard that the grados can be a little uncomfortable. i'm looking for something that's comfortable and cover my ears completely and not just sit on them.

i'm looking for a pair of headphones that will sound great without needing to be amped, etc. i'm mostly going to use it to listen to my ipod or computer. right now i am using sony d22 eggos, so there is a big room for improvement. i'd like to stay as close to $100 as possible. i have a wide...

the etymotic web site lists the er6i's cord as 5ft long. is that 5ft from the plug to the Y-split? or 5ft to the earphones? either way that sounds pretty darn long... i find the length of the stock ipod buds almost perfect.

hi everyone. i've been browsing these boards for a little while, but finally decided to register. so i guess that qualifies me as a newbie. since the price of the er-6i has come down a lot, i've been seriously considering them to replace my stock ipod buds, but i have a few questions: 1...
