Weeeeeeee this is my 500th post. This post could potentially be a waste of space, but I'm going to say something meaningful instead. Regardless, I would like to thank everyone in the head-fi community who is awesome, especially n_maher for hooking me up with a totally awesome amp

Well, folks, it took me longer than most, but I've made it to 500 posts. (you supremus guys must have sore mouse-tapping fingers!). Thanks to all for the civil and informative and sometime amusing discussion!

My 500th post. Dara, if you read this, send me a Cosmic loaner. Jude, Change me from 100+ to 500, (begging) Thanks for putting up with me for 500 posts.

After reading several other threads, I've been thinking about this more and more lately. If you had $500 and were looking in the used market for a decent source, what would you get? In the past, I would have definitely said analog all the way. But I really feel now that manufacturers are...

I am looking to spend around 400-500 including the amp. Will be using in my room for mostly movies and games. Any suggestions?? Thank you!

Im looking now for a pair of closed headsets for around $500 at most. I have both the E7 and E9 Amp/DAC so amping is not an issue. I listen to mostly rock/heavy rock, and electronic. However i do listen to dubstep sometimes(getting a little burnt out on it) and classical sometimes too(getting to...

Looking for a pair of monitors less the 500. I was thinking some B&W speakers and a PreSonus amp, what do you think.

Well ,guys It's not the end yet. just a moment before ,a new speakers had been presented ,employing lovely yammy horns ,and ... build with solid cherry wood.These cabinets must sing ,for sure. Except the fact they must look great matched to Yammy amps ,oh yammy. Welcome to Adobe GoLive 5

...threads here with people recommending $400-500 customs from companies that I've never heard of. Have things really changed that much? Are these $500 customs truly worth looking at vs. a good universal fit? If so, what should I be looking at? My dream sound is Grado RS-1's out of a Melos...

This one just got me one closer. Thanks for your time.

I have been a member for a while, and I post a little here and a little there. I have finally reached 500 posts! Just 1,000 more before I am "special". Any other fellow 500+'ers feel like giving me a shout-out?

Who has money to burn? Denon USA | AK-DL1 Ak-dl1: The $499 Ethernet Cable

Wow... I've hit 500 posts!! When I first came here I thought how strange that people could communicate about head phones and other such stuff to do with it. At the time I had a pair of E2c for portable use and no headphone at all for home use - why when I've got speakers? Now... Well...

So, er, not that it matters to me or anything, but how do I get my 500+ tag?

What turntables for less than $500 would you recommend?

I am looking for something to pair with my hd580's, used or new. I really don't plan on getting much better headphones, so I don't need anything that would be overkill. How much better of a used player can be had for the same as a new? How long do they typically last? Right now what I have...

K this is my setup, Soundstorm DD 2 channel digital out -> Yamaha RX-V1400 -> Grado 225s would u say it would be worth $500CND to replace with M-Audio Revolution 2 channel anolog out -> Creek OBH-11 -> Grado 225s Thanks.

what do people think of the sen hd 500's? they were on sale in this weeks comp USA ad so i was wondering

HD-500? newegg has em refurbed for 40 bucks. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...tby=14&order=1 not in stock, but eh, they any good? for that price?

I recently purchased the HE-500's and they sound great, but not really "airy" or "open" as one would expect from an open-back headphone. Now, I am no audiophile and these are my first planar magnetic open-back headphones I have purchased, but I cannot help but think that they sound remarkably...

Hello, so I have an HE-500 and apparently, the right side sounds louder to me than the left side, even during left right tests. Is this because my hearing is uneven or because there is a driver problem, etc? It's a bit bothersome because as a result, in most of my music, it sounds like the...

Is this fully open?  Will the person next to me here everything I play?   I want to buy these headphones as well but I like to listen to classical music at night.   The other headphones I bought (ultrasone pro 900) are basically for my bass heavy songs and movies.

Are they open?  I heard good reviews about them but want to know if people around me will hear what I am listening to loud and clear?

“Upon first listen with the stock leather earpads, I was completely unimpressed. I would describe the sound as shouty or honky, and generally unpleasant. I switched over to the included velour earpads and the sound was instantly much improved, but still not what I was expecting. After hearing...

Has anyone listened to the Ultimate Ears 500?  What do you think? They look well constructed and looks like a good price at $69 msrp   http://ultimateears.com/en-us/products/500   Is it worth looking at any of the other less expensive Ultimate Ear IEM? Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220?  ...
