Ok, so, I'm not even sure that whole thing is possible, but I  was thinking.   Right now, whenever I want to listen to music on my speaker setup, I have to switch the computer on. Switch the external hard drive on. Plugin my sound card. Wait for windows to load. Etc, etc... And there are...

Hi there, I'm posting because I'm having a small issue. I've bought Shure E500 18 months ago. Was really happy with their sound. But the cable broke 6 months or so ago. So I sent them back. Got them replaced with SE530. I was thinking "cool"! I added a headsix to my rig. Overall it...

Hi there, I've heard a lot of praise for the DT770 and been told the 80 ohm version sounded better than the 250 one. Only issue is that I can only seem to find DT770 PRO at 80 ohm or DT770 non pro at 250 ohm. No normal DT770 80 ohm.... So I was wondering if you guys knew where I could...

Hi there, I've owned an archos 604 and a pair of shure e500s. The sound wasn't really good so I sold the 604 and bought a cowon d2. Sound is much better, but I still get quite a lot of hiss when there is no music playing. If I understood well, it would be caused by the low sensitivity of...
