Yeah people should explain why they would put this stuff on rca jacks and connectors. My gold and nickel cable connectors stand up to oxidation pretty well If the jacks / connectors are worn then there is no substitution for new ones. Silver connectors are a pretty stupid idea if you...

The MS-1s sound like a good fit. Their bass is punchy and has adequate quality. Not as good as headphones 2 or 3 times the price but very good for their cost

For the environmentally conscious consumer the 4-stroke engines are better for the environment than 2-stroke engines with carburetors. For any other potential buyers, look for a fuel-injected 2-stroke or any 4-stroke. This goes for lawn-mowers and other engines too.

Stock photo: SE110... my first iem. They have a bad rep around here but if they isolate and play music I will be a happy camper.

Enjoy mate! It is a mighty fine system indeed. Stax cured my upgraditis. I don't need to see what lies beyond the lambdas, they satisfy me perfectly. They made me spend too much expanding the CD collection but it is worth it when I hit play I love forgetting that I am wearing headphones...

I've never heard them but the hd25-II probably fall in your price range and are very portable. They are another one to research I guess. They look sharp anyway Off topic: I had the chance to listen to some bose a while back but I only listened briefly because the volume was stuck at too...

Best is a silly word in subjective things like headphone-listening. Listen to any respected headphone and I think you'll find the bass response quite good and leagues ahead of the bass produced by $1 included earbuds. I've had several good headphones, none of which are renowned for...

Maybe they want to reposition their headphone brand and market themselves as more of a high-end only company? You don't see ferrari selling $10k cars new Their are distinct benefits in not selling cheap products.

No idea myself (though twice as better is mostly impossible at most price points ), but this article is definitely worth a read http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f13/15...eviews-218733/ You've got to pay big money for those small improvements

If cost is no object then the rectangular stax would fit 60mm in the long direction no worries. So SR-4070? They are closed. But cost, and you must factor in the amp price too. My ears are probably less "deep" (the 22mm measurement you have) and my ears touch the inside face of similar...

Mine came with a tapedeck too and it was sanyo I believe as well, circa 1990. I still had them up to a couple of years ago. I found out about Grado headphones probably 8 years ago and had dreamed of having a pair since Many years later I found head-fi and was influenced into spending large...

I just want to add to what hawat said and say that please don't listen at elevated levels that could damage your hearing One good thing about closed headphones (although the d2000 didn't isolate that much in my experience) is that you can listen at lower volumes due to the reduced ambient...

Grado Sr-60, Sr-80, Alessandro MS-1. Take your pick As Anvil said, they fit well within your budget, and they shouldn't disappoint. They are good all-rounders and a good introduction that can last you as long as you want them to (I still have my MS-1s despite having much better headphones)...

Sure. That goes for other things in head-fi too I don't know anything about those cans though. Vintage is a good way to get good value for money.

Is it possible to remove the pads and give them a gentle vacuum? (Carefully!) I've never seen these pads so it is a blind suggestion Enjoy your new headphones, sounds like a good deal.

One might say that cycling devices on/off causes stresses due to thermal expansion/contraction, so leaving things on might be best. But then the elevated temperatures might increase the rate of oxidation in materials so then it is best to keep them off (or unplugged in your case). I don't...

If my broken english doesn't fail me... It says it meets the redbook standard guys, it's not a new format. They just use a different laser to cut the master die when they are manufacturing. The laser is cooled in some novel way so that fans that cause vibration aren't required. Sony and JVC...

Before people start worrying about earplugs they might want to find out what actually caused the OP's problem. It is possible (likely?) it was the pressure issue that caused this. The instructions should address this in the section about removal. No way could ety earplugs get near my eardrum...

I think Zuerst just used the wrong tense when he wrote it down? I interpreted what he intended to say as "I'd reply to his negative feedback with link to this thread if character length permits..." "I would...". I guessed Zuerst was telling MatthewK what he thought he should do. I could be...

Coincidentally... This time the publication is more reliable though. Mammoth backyard spider devours bird This beats the snake hands down I reckon! Cairns can rejoice.

Not to hate on the redbacks: Lizard in a web Image:Redbackwithlizard2.JPG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

That ain't a redback. I saw this in the news a few weeks back. Apparently it ended up in some museum according to that article. I'm not sure where that spider is from (Africa? maybe South Africa iirc) but it isn't Australia. You know redbacks have the red on their back! plus it doesn't...

Oh... hair follicles grow only about 20 hairs in their lifetime according to wikipedia. Interesting!
