lol, "um" sounds indecisive to you? that's funny. well, it doesn't really mean anything. its like when i am talking while thinking at the same time, i sometimes start with sentense like " um...you know what?" or whatever. I don't see it soften my opinion anyhow. but, anyway,

um....i had a really bad experience from ubid. They never sent me the HD580, only the 360 processor. And they gave me two options, either return my processor and get full refund or keep my processor and they give me back half the price i bidded, which is pratically a joke. They didn't even try...

there is pratical no way to upgrade video card in laptop, right?

i thought those are hyperjack. have two function--optical and line out, at the same place.

Quote: I loved the way they rendered vocals, haven't heard anything as beautyfull as Kate Bush through the Grado's. loved their sense of immediacy. but, impact was over-the-top, they sound pityful at low volume and they gave me ringing ears when I used them at satisfying levels. I...

etronics has one the fastest shipping I've experienced. I highly recommand it.

no, i didn't audit them, and will not for a long time. I am too afraid that I will love those can more and spend more money. Since I am very satisfied with my 225, I am just going to stay with it for a long time.

one more thing i don't like about this can is--the plastic noise made by cable and earcup. everytime I move my head, i can hear that plasic sound. Aw!

Without a doubt, Grado 225 is THE headphone I am searching for. It sounds so like real speakers--maybe because of its bass. I bought a pair of HD495 weeks ago, and didn't like the sounds. This grado though, bring out the best of rock and techno from my collection. The high are smooth, I listen...

yeah, CDW is quite reliable, at least form my experience. I got my JVC EX70CD system from them.

m...anyone where can i get those bowl pad? I mean from internet?

I went to SF Stereo and theater system. I can't resist to buy SR225. The vocal sounds so good and bass is just right for me. I am returning my HD495. I have a question though, there are two earpad on headroom, what are their difference?

m, I just come back from the vacation and check my headphone. wow, the bass does improve a lot. I mean I can stand to listen to trance with this headphone now. but, the low-bass is still little existence. I guess it's just headphone's common problem.

thx alot, lini and kurtw, I will go direct to them after I come back from my vacation. Thx again.

alrite, since I am am leaving for Las Vegas for 3 days, I am going to burn it in for 72 hours more. I hope it will sounds different when i come back.
