    Woofer recommendation for M-Audio StudioPro3

    I just received the StudioPro 3 today and after listening for a couple hours, I find my self wanting deeper bass than these speakers can deliver. Don't get me wrong, these are fantastic speakers, mids and highs are reproduced very clearly, much better than my last set of computer speakers...

    Recommendation for Laptop/Portable Rig Bag?

    +1 for the Crumpler suggestion. I love crumpler bags. I have one of their messengers and a camera bag. Both have seen constant abuse for 3+ years and have not shown any signs of wear. Plus they are waterproof. One time I left my messenger bag under a lifeguard tower on the beach while I went...

    Sony S610 review, and a bit of Zen Stone review too...

    I picked up a red S610 at CC today. After playing with it all night, I can say that I absolutely LOVE this thing! Originally, I bought a Zen Stone along with a JVC Air Cushion a couple days ago as I needed a small flash player and a pair of comfortable IEMs for studying. The form factor and...

    recommend closed FOLDABLE headphones on a budge?

    I've been using HD201's while studying at the library. I love the sound and the price. Problem is, they don't fold up so they don't fit in my bag very well. Can anyone recommend a good set of closed cans that are foldable for HD201 prices?

    Life Aquatic OST, bad recording?

    Ok, I had no luck posting this in the Computer audio forum, so here goes: I noticed that on certain tracks of my Life Aquatic OST, there are popping/clicking sounds (most noticable in track #1,9) as well as clipping when Seu Jorge hits the high notes. I've listened to this CD on both my...

    Ultimate $50 Setup...No Joke!

    When I got home last Friday my HD201s were waiting for me. I quickly opened the box and connected it to the TBAAM. On first impression, it sounded really good. Bass, mids, highs, all there. But, it's nothing spectacular. Then I connected my PortaPros to the TBAAM to compare. The PP2s seem to...

    Does anyone here have this CD? I've been listening to it and I notice alot of popping and clicking sounds, particularly on tracks 1 and 9. I also notice some clipping when Seu Jorge hits the high notes. Can anyone confirm this?

    I thought my TBAAM was defective....but it was the horrible CD!!!

    I was listening to the Life Aquatic OST through my PortaPro2 and Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro when I noticed popping in certain tracks. I remembered BlessingX's post about his TBAAM being defective and I thought, "uh oh, did I get a lemon?" But the popping and clicking only happens on...

    Turtle Beach AA Micro vs. Xitel Hi-Fi Link. Worth it?

    so....it's only line out if I use the SPIDF cable? I did plug in my PA2 last night and the sound was a bit muffled... If I just plug the phones into the Xitel w/o amp, would I be able to control volume in Windows like I can with the MMA?

    Turtle Beach AA Micro vs. Xitel Hi-Fi Link. Worth it?

    No amp. I just plug it in and go. I wish there was a volume control on the AAM though. Isn't the jack on the AAM a line out?

    Turtle Beach AA Micro vs. Xitel Hi-Fi Link. Worth it?

    Well, I picked up the AAMicro at CompUSA yesterday. Listening with PortaPro's, I don't hear any background hiss like with the onboard sound. (I have a Toshiba Satellite) Even if I turn the volume all the way up (nothing playing of course!) there is just silence. No hiss, no hum..nada. Other than...

    Turtle Beach AA Micro vs. Xitel Hi-Fi Link. Worth it?

    There seems to be alot of discussion about the AAMicro lately. For about $25 it looks like a reall bang for the buck upgrade. What about the Xitel Hi-Fi Link? The $50 version not the pro version. Is it worth twice the price?

    Buy demo SR125 or new SR80?

    A local hifi store has a pair of demo SR125's for about $100, which is about the same price as that of SR80. Which should I get? I've never listened to either of them and the store doesn't have the SR80 in stock.

    Karma + 160kps. How high-end can I go?

    90% of my music listening is done from my Rio Karma. And most of the files are 160kps and above. How high end a headphone can I go before I start noticing the flaws? I want to be able to enjoy the music. What's the most high end headphone/amp combo you guys recommend? I would especially like to...
