I know that these quality iem's can be had for less, but about MSRP they are throwing in either a free 4GB 2nd gen. ipod nano refurb ($99 from the Apple Store) for $349 http://www.ecost.com/detail.aspx?EDP...e=EWB011108EML or if ipods aren't your cup of tea they are also offering the SE420's...

You gotta have real rocks to do this...I don't http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive...C-0D6B48984890 Gotta love the disclaimer by the way.

Seems like fluff to me, although I would be interested in hearing it. And oooooohhh it allows you to switch from open to closed diaphgragm...interesting... http://news.sel.sony.com/en/press_ro...ase/25720.html

My sister-in-law is going to be flying back to California this weekend and I was thinking of having her pick me up one of those nifty Meizu miniplayers or Teclast TL-T29's. She's not very savvy with electronics so she wouldn't know the first thing about where to look for these players. Can...

I think I might have seen someone with these on walking around the financial district in SF. I remember seeing an IEM with the strange logo which was vaguely familiar to me...researched a bit and I'm pretty sure it was the Jays logo. Anybody in the city have these already (it says available in...

Can PayPal payments be rescinded by the payer? I am selling an item on E-bay and the buyer doesn't have any feedback. He/she paid almost instantaneously, but now I'm afraid that if I send the item out to him/her he/she might rescind the payment. Am I being paranoid or safe? Thanks in advance...

Well, to start it off, one of the first impressions by yours truly: I actually had a chance to listen at my friends' house where I bogarted his system, which isn't half bad. A vintage solid state Yamaha CA1010 mated with a Rotel CD player. The integrated amp drove my Yamaha HP1's pretty well...

Wow, it looks like these are XM2Go and Mp3 players as well. I know there were discussions before about how these are just stationary players (XM satellite players that have to be docked in order to get live satellite feeds), but it looks like these are improved and miniaturized versions of the...

What can brown do for me? Let's take a look shall we? Hmmm... What do we have here? The suspense is killing me! Sweet English Goldring DR150 lovin' Nice um...package... What?!?! It uses a nice interconnect as its cable? More impressions as I...

I am going to be using this player a fair amount on the go...about 15% of the time in the gym, about 60% in the train and about 15% at home and 10% at work. I am going to be mating this with my Z-Audio Lambdas and depending on the mood, my KSC75s, UE10's or A900LTD's. I listen primarilly to rock...

Is there a definitive opamp resource guide out there? Well, it doesn't have to be definitive, but a guide with the properties of certain opamps and what they bring to the table would be nice. Thanks everyone!

Calling all Z-Audio Lambda owners...I've been amp rolling lately and I just wanted to get your input. What kind of opamps are you guys using for your Lambda? Thanks in advance!

I have to say that I am in love with these phones. I was looking for a closed can alternative for my Grado's for late night listening so I don't wake up the baby and the Mrs...and boy have I found it. After taking a look at all the reviews and having listened to many AT phones before (from my...

Is it possible/recommended to daisy chain headphone amps?

Anybody catch the IEM's that a lot of the stars were sporting in the Grammys? They seemed like UE10's in different colors. I couldn't really find a big, clean picture, here's the best I have dug up with the IEM's on John Legend. Just curious...

Question to you D-11 owners. Does the D-11 have an internal charging circuit for the 4 AA batteries that it takes? Thanks in advance guys!

So, I was wandering in my local Fry's Electronics to see what other gadget that I didn't need that I was going to get next, when I ran into these interesting gizmos: Sorry for the bad photos, but I only had my camera phone on me so they look terrible. They seem to be the E2, E3...

What do you guys think about this amp? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...Pr4_PcY_BIN_IT

I am looking for a backup pair of custom IEM's...looking at these two or if anybody has any other IEM suggestions at this price point I'm open to it. Anybody, by any chance own these two mid-level custom IEM's?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a portable amp that will synergize well with the Yamaha HP-1's? Thanks in advance!

or is Garrett's, aka Kramer5150, DIY HF-1 woody post gone? Oh where o where has that beautiful thread with pics gone? I wanted to take a look see if this is a worthwhile project or if I am fooling myself

So, I just had an incredible revelation. After having cycled through almost the entire gamut of portable MP3 players, presented here in reverse chronological order: Apple iPod Nano, Sony Vaio Pocket VGF-AP1L, 4G 20gb iPod photo, iPod Shuffle, Rio Pearl, Rio Karma, Rio Eigen, Rio Fuse, and my...

I am not necessarily asking for a "which one is better" recommendation (although your opinions are quite welcome on that arena), but I'm looking more towards your input on the attributes of the SR71 vs. SM3. Thanks in advance Head-fiers!

Does anyone know if the Vaio Pocket will work with Yahoo Music Unlimited? Can we download the music and use VAIO Music Transfer to move the music into my VP?

I just received my Pocket Vaio today (purchased from eCost at $239 - brand new...not remanufactured!), so I can't really say much about it yet. I loaded a few songs in mp3 format (with the latest firmware update, most sony portables are now able to play mp3's natively) using at 192-256kb/s CBR...
