    Anyone seen a player with these features?

    Hi there! I'm back again. Looking for a new player. For a sort-of-like flash-MD. Yes, MD was great for musicians. Some portable players have a couple of those nice features, too, but not all. To get to the point, these are the things I'm looking for: - replacable battery - line-in...

    Resurrected my DAP!

    *rejoicing smily* The dead dap has risen! It's the night of the living dap! One morning in December while going as usual to the uni, I turned my Muvo on and heard no sound. Thought it was the accumulator - but no, it wrote "No music". Later that day, when I got home, I plugged it into my...

    Decisions, decisions... 880/990/580/240

    Hello! So once again, I'm on the search for a new pair. Good headphones are addictive. After I got my K-340, everything started to sound bad... I guess everyone here knows this feeling I really love my K-340s, in terms of sound, they might be my be-all-end-all 'phones, but there's the...

    K340 on eBay.de - not much time left

    Here it is: http://cgi.ebay.de/AKG-K340-Studioko...QQcmdZViewItem I am in no way affiliated with the seller, I was just browsing through eBay and found it. (Looks a bit strange with this yellow background...) Anyway, since these were quite sought after some time ago, I thought I'd let...

    Which amp to build for AKG K340?

    Hello! So I recently (that is to say, this morning ) got an AKG K340 And that baby needs an amp - it's 400 Ohms, and 94 dB @1mW. Unfortunately, getting a fancy headphone-amp is a bit out of the question, as my main hobby needs more funding: it look's like we'll go to the studio soon to...

    Look what I got!

    Heheh... Any guesses? No? Then here are some clues: They were discontinued in the 80's... Experimental two-way system... They're big... The smilie in the title can be replaced with a combination of two smilies: and - MAJOR HINT For being a hi-fi headphone, it...

    E-mu 0404 and games?

    Hi again! So I got a 0404 today I have an Audigy and first thought that I'd use the Audigy for gaming and the 0404 for recording and listening to music. However, Windows only let me select playback, recording and synth... so no gaming-on-one,-listening-to-music-from-other choices I...

    Is the E-MU 0404 really that much better than the M-audio Audiophile 2496?

    Hi! Well, it's all in the title. People here seem to really favor the 0404, but it looks like I can get the Audiophile 2496 for considerably less. The search brought up a thread just like this, so I know it's been asked before, but my question is a bit different: I wouldn't call myself such...

    Multiple soundcards in one PC?

    Hi! I'm planning on putting in another soundcard in my PC. Is it possible to have my ol' Audigy to just play games, but use the other card for recording and playback? Sorry if it has been asked before, but these keywords are hardly searchable, they are a bit too common... Thanks!

    Budget soundcards - ease of use/setup, bundle

    Hi! I'm about to do a soundcard-upgrade. I already have a Creative Audigy in my PC (yeah, I know)... I've tried recording with it, but it's very weak on the bass side, yet I play 6-string bass... (Little side-question: I'm wondering whether I can put a second soundcard in for...

    Now what should I do!

    Hello! I'm stuck with another dilemma. My MP3-player is arriving soon and I'm about to buy some headphones, too, as my old ones all suddenly went wrong (broken cables and such). The headphones will basically be used for two things: 1.) With the MP3-player either at home or while travelling...

    Are MP3-players worth it re: problems

    Just a provocative question. I was looking for something to replace my old CD-player, as it is a bit big. I looked at these Flash-based mp3-players, but the more I read about them, the more I hear that they have lots of problems: pops, crackles, squeaks, dying-after-a-couple-of-months...

    Medium-priced MP3-players - which to choose?

    Hello everyone! Sorry to bother with "yet another which MP3-player to choose" thread, but I can't decide myself and I need help from those who have experience with these units. And there are not many reviews of this category, only the bigger ones. I'm thinking of replacing my good old...

    Can a MINT drive an AKG K240S (55 Ohm) well?

    Hi! I've been thinking of getting a K 240 S - I've seen a used one around for a decent price (I think €72/$95 is OK for it...), but some said that they don't recommend it without proper amplifying. Can the MINT running at 18 volts accomplish this? Also, feel free to recommend other phones...

    Need some help deciding

    Hello! As you can easily guess from the title, I'm getting new headphones and I thought I'd ask some knowledgeable people - to whom audio is a passion. Also, some of you might even have experience with these headphones. Now, the situation: I've been using a cheap-but-good headhone so...
