    big bass from an earphone?

    I'm looking to upgrade from my cx300's again. I once tried the E4c's but quickly sent them back because of a lack of low end (yes, I had a good fit). I loved the fit of the E4c's though. I will not be using these for critical listening. Some must haves are: Tight fit (love foamies) Big bass...

    Will the Shure E2c foamies fit on the senn cx300?

    Sorry if this has been answered but searching didn't turn up anything. I used to mod some foam earplugs to put on my md-33's and it made them sound 10x better. Now I'm thinking about getting the cx300's to replace my broken md33's and I would rather just buy foam tips than keep hacking away at...

    Shure e4g's just arrived...some questions

    So, I wouldn't consider myself a basshead...but I will admit I like some punch. I am a bit disappointed in the bass from the e4's. The Sharp md33's I was using could kick a hole in my head. The E4's are really lean on bass. I'm using the foamies. I'm getting a very good seal and the fit great...

    Grados & Tinnitus

    oh man, my ears are screaming. I don't listen very loud. After medium to long sessions my tinnitus is terrible for hours. (I have it all of the time, but it is noticeably worse after time with the grados) I love them so much though....

    Sharp md33's are crapping out on me...

    It seems as if the left channel has lost some volume. They lasted about 1 1/2 yrs., granted I used them everyday. I would really like to replace them with the E500's but I can't justify the $ right now. I guess the E4's are on deck.

    I fried my beloved h120...help me decide on a replacement player...

    So I accidently used the wrong car charger on my iriver h120. How did I find out? Well, the smoke was a dead give away. Talk about a crappy day. I loved that thing. Needless to say I'm going to need a replacement stat. I am looking at the ipod video (even though I absolutely hate itunes)...

    RS-1 impressions...

    Okay, now that these have quite a few hours on them (4 sets of 9Volts through the sr-71). I thought I would spill my thoughts. I found this post by Iron Dreamer: "Though I've only had the RS1 for about 2.5 days, I can completely see what you're getting at. The other night I listened to 4...

    I'm not a big classical collector...but I am interested in a really high quality recording to try out with my new cans. I don't have a sacd/hdcd player...so keep that in mind. Any suggestions? Preferably something with strings.

    Headphones and/or amp $600-700 budget

    Just throwing this out there to see where some of you are coming from: Say you already had an ipod/large capacity hd mp3 player. What headphone or headphone/amp combo would you buy for it with a budget of $600-700? Headphone and amp choices don't necessary have to be portable.

    advice needed on upgrade? Grado related...

    So I have the 325i's and I really like them. Though, recently, I have started to listen to more and more jazz. I'm starting to think maybe I need a headphone that handles this type of music a little better. Also, last night I was doing a little a/b 'ing with my sr-71 and the headphone out of my...

    So Todd, being a Grado dealer...

    I'm sure you got that email they sent out about the new 325(i)'s. In that email they said they would be following up with the actual specs on them, new box branding, etc. Have you heard anything in regard to the specs yet?

    selling/shipping headphones overseas...

    I'm in the U.S. and I recently put up my 225's on ebay...I've seen a lot of things about extra tax and such for buyers outside of the U.S.. So, instead of dealing with this I decided to open my auction to U.S. residents only. Well, within 24 hours I have 3 people overseas asking me to...

    Would I benefit from an av710?

    Right now I have a Soundblaster Live 5.1 running a Klipsch 2.1 system. I do not have/want a surround sound system. Would I notice a difference in quality through headphones if I were to switch to the chaintech card?

    A thanks to Ray Samuels...

    I am in the market for a headphone amp. I have never had the opportunity to hear one at all. The SR-71 was at the top of my list so I gave Ray a call to find out where I could audition one. Fortunately I only live 20 minutes from Ray's house/lab. He invited me over for listen. I went to listen...

    Yet another Sharp MD-33 mod

    I think these earphones sound great but I wanted better isolation. The included biggest rubber plugs were pretty good...but there was room for improvement. I really like the fit/function of foam earplugs so I took a pair of E-A-R Superfit 33 ear plugs and modded them to fit over the md-33's. The...

    Portable amp/headphone combo questions...

    Hi, I'm new to your expensive world. I have recently upgraded my Grado-60's for a pair of 225's w/ flat pads. I primarily listen to music from my iriver ihp120 (mp3 player) and straight out of the soundcard. Since I got the bigger cans I thought it might be time for an amp. Here are my...
