Don't worry... no sound going, just overboard on cuteness from my daughter.    

I'm looking for a new pair of commuter/office cans and have managed to demo a number of different options.   First things first, the ATH-ES10 fits the bill perfectly, but at over SG$700 it's a tad out of my price range for a potable headphone!   I've worked out that I enjoy the Audio...

Been interested in sampling the Bayer sound... looks like this could be it, if we can get them for under SG$400!

So does this mean you can only use the Apple earbuds? I love the design, but lame if you are limited to what Apple's supplying.

I posted about them earlier. I'm enjoying them as a more relaxed, less analytical set of cans. I was looking at them primarily as a potential replacement to my aging Eggos and have been pretty happy with them thus far.

Little bit of experimenting today and discovered two things: 1. If you EQ the heck out of them (iTunes > Treble Boost) these cans really pick up a bit more sparkle, now they are sounding very close to my Eggos. Makes me a happy camper. 2. Poor quality encoded MP3s sound very poor...

Ok, so I my infinitely better half surprised me with an early Christmas present this week. A brand-spanking new pair of Sony XB700s! I'm still burning them in (30 hours), but here's some initial thoughts. I'll update this a little later when I have a better idea. Sources used: - iPod...

Sony XB700

Haven't seen much written on the Sony XB series, so thought I would add some very brief impressions. Briefly auditioned the XB 700 at Sim Lim Square in Singapore this afternoon. Unfortunately I didn't have my Zune on me, so music was supplied by Sony (and could be coloured by the music they...

Resurrecting this older thread somewhat but I haven't seen much written about the XB series. Briefly auditioned the XB 700 at Sim Lim Square in Singapore this afternoon. Unfortunately I didn't have my Zune on me, so music was supplied by Sony (and could be coloured by the music they use to...

Not to threadjack, but if you have a stop over in Singapore, you can get much better Headphone action. Just search for Jaben or Uncle Wilson. ( You'd need at least a 6 hour stop over to get in and back )
