    Causal headphone to tame Loudness War casualties and streaming music?

    Hi, all -   So...  I'm sure we all know a ton of new music (indie, pop, EDM, etc.) is mastered/mixed terribly.  I currently have the HD800/HDVD800 comb, and while it makes well-mastered recordings sound hypnotic, it lays bare all the problems in casualties of the Loudness War.  Not only does...

    Burson Conductor vs Sennheiser HDVD800: Amp/DAC for HD800

    Hi, guys... I've been a longtime reader of the forums, and I could now use a little advice.

    iPod Classic clickwheel responsiveness?

    Hi, guys! I lurk on these forums quite a bit and always find them tremendously informative. After much reading in various posts here, I bought a 160GB iPod Classic. I love the new UI, but despite various FW updates, it still seems slow to me. I know this is normal for the units, but I'm also...

    Shure E4c vs UE Super.fi 5 Pros (no amp, on the go, with rock)?

    Sorry for the long title. I've been searching this forum for hours and have found an exhausting number of threads on the "E4c vs SF5P" issue. Just wanted to specify that my question has some very explicit parameters. On to the questions... I'm planning to purchase one of these sets of IEM's...
