    Advertisement at top of window keeps shifting

    The advertisement keeps moving down blocking the "WIKI" and "MY PROFILE" tabs. I noticed at first on my iPhone but my Firefox browser does that too.

    Looking for the ultimate basshead headphone. Is the L3000 what I'm looking for?

    I constantly hear people characterize the Audio Technica L3000 as the ultimate basshead headphone and that's what I'm looking for right now.

    Equalization: Further exploration - Minimal phase vs. Linear phase

    I'm not an audio engineer so I hope someone with the knowledge could help explain things to me in laymen's terms or correct me. That would be really helpful.

    Monster Beats Pro is like a Sony XB

    When I heard the Monster Beats Pro, I thought it actually sounded pretty good, but now I look at the Innerfidelity graphs, it seems the PRO actually measures better. Other than the treble to being tamer on the PRO which isn't necessarily a bad thing, the PRO seems to have the advantage overall...

    Amplifier has channel hum. Could it be a broken pot?

    Sorry if I'm doing this twice but I really need help. My Stax SRM323s has hum on the right channel at loud volumes while my left channel remains noise free. There is still a hum when the source is turned off. There is also still hum if I touch the ground terminal.   What could be the...

    Stax SRM323s hum on right channel.

    I'm noticing a pretty loud hum on the right channel of my amplifier. The hum is still there after if the source is off. What should I do? I'm trying to use the grounding terminal but not quite sure where to connect it. It's strange that the hum is only on the right channel and pretty much silent...

    Orthodynamics and wide soundstage. Never existed?

    Has there ever been an orthodynamic that had a wide soundstage? One that rivals the Sennheiser HD598 at least? I suspect it can be possible by basing off the design from Stax Lambdas.

    Has anyone tried the Audio Technica CM707?

    Might be a long shot, but I recall some being sold here awhile ago. I wonder if those sellers or anyone else could pop a couple impressions.

    Recommend me some modern rock music!

    The more I immersed myself in international music, the more I lost touch with what's new in American rock. What are some of the best rock bands today?   Also, what are some bands that sound like an English speaking version of Nico Touches The Walls?         Post videos please.

    Incredible audiophile setup in Korean movie

    I was watching "Man of Vendetta" and I saw this amazing listening room filled with amplifiers.   FYI, the insane psycho killer is an audiophile and he's naked. Be careful. He got his equipment by killing audiophiles he met on forums!
