I'm about to buy these speakers from amazon and i was just wondering if it would need an amp of some sort. I dont think its powered or anything, so if someone could shed some light on this please? Plenny mahaloz *also could i play my ipod through this thing? this would be my first audiophile...

i'm thinking of buying an i7 and i invested alot of money into itunes albums. could i transfer those on over to the i7?

So yesterday, while in a hurry, my beloved ipod touch fell out of my backpack with new Futuresonics Atrio M5's in tow. Now, I don't know if anyone's been to a high school before, but things go "missing" often. Sometimes right out of your own bag! Well, as I was walking to the room I hang out in...

I need help deciding on what to get. I already have the Atrio's and I really like the sound, but the foams are meh, and the bi-flanges are just ok. I would like better treble and soundstage. Has anybody tried these both? Mahalo.

Oh head-fi the most terrible thing has happened! My beautiful, amp is acting really strange. It plays for a 30 seconds then cuts off. i have to turn it off, then on again for that 30 seconds of sound. It's not the LOD, or the headphones. Brand-new Atrio M8's dontcha know? Anyway head-fi, could u...

Do the futuresonics Atrio m8 have enough passive noise-canceling powers to block out 9 hours of yammering, hum, and straight-up noise on a plane ride to the orient? if not, what does? thanks alot head-fi.

So I'm interested in the Futuresonics iems for my trip to japan. I was searching online and found two of these similar looking iems. Is there a difference between these or is it a matter of names? Mahalo

Hey there Head-Fi! How are you guys doing? Great. So. I need an IEM recommendation for a long airplane trip to Japan. The thing is it'll be next to an especially loud, effeminate fellah whom I do not care for at all. So, if you could recommend me a solid pair of IEM's it would be great. I was...

I was looking at the modded ATH 'phones and I thought they looked really cool However, I couldn't find any reviews concerning the SQ5 or ESW9. If anyone could shine some light on this I would greatly appreciate it!

I just got my pk1's and god help me i think theyre the best things ive ever put into my ears. however i was trying on all of the foams that came with the earbuds and they seemed to take away from the sound somehow. do i absolutely need the foams on my buds? do they protect them somehow? i just...

I'm thinking of getting into vinyl and usb turntables look really cool and affordable. Do these maybe provide excellent sound quality or perhaps more so than apple lossless files? thanks for any input! sorry if this is the wrong place to post :P

I spied these on the ALO site and saw these neat looking headphones. I looked on this site and found a few bits and clips of what i assume are reviews? "I can't believe this is SQ5" "I know stock SQ5, this is sharper and bass is not boomy" "Vocal is so sweet I like this better than ESW9"...

Does anybody here on this site have experience with both of these amps? I would like a comparison between the two of them solely on sound quality if possible. Thank you

If anyone has read Max Brook's "The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead" you, like myself, have probably wondered what to do in the event a zombie outbreak happens. Please post pics of tools you'd use to defend yourself from the zombie hordes that you can find around...

Hi Head-Fi! I was looking around on Uncle Wilson's Superstore website and saw this funny looking styleaudio carat amp. I've never seen this amp before and was wondering if anybody had any experience with it. Thanks

I keep hearing how good the PK1's are with the Minibox-E+, but I can't really afford it. So, I was wondering if there is an amp out there that would amp the PK1's properly. I'm thinking about the XM4, but are there any others? Thanks head-fi!

I was wondering whether the Practical Devices XM4 or the Headroom Total Airhead sounded better than the other. I have enough for one of them and have been leaning towards the XM4, but the Airhead would save me about $50. Thank you Head-fi!

but I was wondering how hard it is to replace opamps in the Practical Devices XM4. I heard that these need to be replaced yourself and, if I couldn't replace these it seems like I would be missing alot. Thanks

I'm going to get a PD Xm4, but my wallet be crying to me awful fierce. I was going to get the Yuin PK1's along with it but I don't believe it to be a viable option. I have a hard time prioritizing Head-Fi, so I want to know what you guys would do- get the Xm4 or the Yuins?

Which amp would bring the best sq out of the pk-1's? The cheaper the better! Mahalo!

I was wondering about LOD's. Would an LOD make a difference on a stock ipod? Does the LOD really make a difference? If so, what would you recommend? Thanks!

Would anyone be able to tell me how this combo will sound? Thanks!

Is there really a difference between these amps? And if so, which one would you recommend?

I'm ready to pull the trigger on any one of these babies, I just want to know what everyone else thinks. Thanks

When I first read about lossless audio, I wanted to hear it so bad! I have an ipod and have never heard anything but standard, apparently bad quality music. I tried to look for lossless audio programs but could only find Apple's program. I t said it costs money to use, so the question is, is...
