  1. Brainwavz ProAlpha In-Ear Headphones Bass Lovers

    4.00 star(s)
    Nice IEMs for the price. I got these on a whim, to switch it up between them and my HD25s when I'm on the move. There is absolutely no way these are for bass lovers, mind you. They have less bass than the HD25, don't extend as low, plus they're not boomy. Quite nice IMO, as I absolutely hate overdone bass. The mids are quite forward and treble extension is very good, even though they're not very detailed and can seem lifeless at times. Soundstage is ok, but there's not very much layering, if you're into that sort of thing. Overall, they do sound nice...
  2. SanDisk Sansa Clip+ 2 GB MP3 Player (Black)

    5.00 star(s)
    If you like your music player to have buttons and a screen, you know what I mean. This baby is solid bang for buck and there's quite a bit of bang in a small package. Great SQ, great design IMO and the microSD slot make the Clip+ awesome.
  3. Sennheiser HD 25-1 II Professional Headphone

    5.00 star(s)
    The HD25s are a legend, really, so I'll just say I love the sound. They push all my aural buttons, with a fast, agressive sound (not quite Grado-like as some would say), punchy bass and great detail. I feel these things just "throw" the music at you, making you listen. Don't know how some people could call them boring, really. They have a solid bass, a dip in the midrange which gives them a certain natural feeling, free of colorations, and somewhat sharp treble. Nothing is overdone, nothing is missing. Soundstage and neutrality might be questionable...
  4. Sennheiser HD 238 Stereo Open Aire Headphone

    3.50 star(s)
    I've had these almost two years ago for a few months and enjoyed them quite a bit, but just couldn't get over the problems that had (besides being open and offering no isolation at all; my mistake here). The sound is good, good detail, smooth highs, without much sparkle, but the mids were too weak for my liking and the bass.. well, it was a big disapointment. Maybe if amped properly they'd sound better, I don't know nor do I care much, given that these are supposed to be easy to drive compact portable cans, not on the same level as real mid-fi or...
  5. Sennheiser PX 200 II B Closed on Ear Mini Headphones

    4.00 star(s)
    The PX200-II are a nice little set of portable cans, maybe the best Sennheiser has out right now in their budget lineup. Amazingly enough, the Headroom frequency graph does not lie: the general sound signature is the same as in the venerable HD25-1, with a bit of treble roll-off.   I really enjoyed these cans while I had them. The sound is smooth, with restrained and very fast bass, once you get the earcups in the right position. Some people might find the bass quantity lacking, but there's no doubt about the quality. The mids are upfront and...
