    Trying to assemble budget speaker system - Insignia receiver opinions?

    Hi all, I need something fairly cheap to drive my new Insignia bookshelf speakers, as right now they're sitting in their box in my apartment, unopened and waiting for the rest of the equipment. I was wondering if any of y'all have tried out any of the Insignia receivers, and if you have any...

    Moving to Richmond, VA - advice?

    Hi everyone, I'm moving to Richmond, VA in about a month, and was wondering (since this forum has been so great at answering all my other questions) if anyone on here is from the area and can give me some advice. Any neighborhoods I should live in or avoid? Any apartment management companies...

    Just sold K271...now what do I do?

    So, after a year and a half of good service, I will be saying goodbye to my pair of AKG K271s soon. They were a wonderful pair of headphones for me - perfect in every way but two: 1) the Zu Mobius they came with had a 1/4" jack and my equipment only has mini jacks, and 2) they made me feel...

    A900 or K271S?

    Hi all, I've been bitten by upgradeitis recently, and I was looking at a good pair of closed phones (I need the isolation because my roomies are loud ) I had my choices down to the AKG 240 and 271...when I saw all the glowing reviews of the A900. Now I'm torn again - on the one hand, I've...

    NYC headphone dealers?

    Hi all, My university is doing a bus trip to NYC tomorrow, and I'm headed with them. While I was there, I figured I'd stop in at a couple headphone retailers, because I want to audition some 'phones other than what I've got. Any suggestions? I'm looking to stay in Manhattan. Brands that I'm...
