Hi All, Okay the premise of thread is simple, to name & shame those who knowing list & sell fake headphones etc on eBay or anywhere else for that matter. I'm sure you've heard the expression, ‘If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is'. Bear this in mind when you find that...

If I remember right the Radiopaq Jazz's weren't that badly slated here when first released, they seemed to get some positive comments. Anyway they're currently available on eBay for £8.99 inc free postage to the UK. Amazon also have them for less than £10 For anyone wanting a bargain IEM...

Hi all, I was having a clear out of my audio junk when I came across a boxed Radiopaq Sound Jacket for a iPod Nano 4G. It's boxed, new & since I've got no use for it, I'm offering to the first person to PM me - Its free to a good home if you want it, well sort of! Since I'm disabled & don't...

Evening All, Quick question, I'm in the market for a music only player; 16gb would suffice & I'm considering either a NWZ-A865 or the NWZ-S765, has anyone had experience of either? The S series has a stated battery life of 50 hours, where as the A series is around 20 hours, that's big...

Hi All, Quick question, does anyone here have experience with portable DAB radio's? I'm possibly in the market for a dedicated portable DAB radio for use here in the UK, I'm thinking something along the lines of PURE PocketDAB 1500 / 2000 or similar. The one thing I'm NOT looking for is a...

Jays - a-JAYS For those of you who may find this interesting, the flat tangle free cable sounds goods - However, no information or mention of them on Jay's UK site yet. "Match your a-JAYS Series to your budget; from the entry level a-JAYS One, to the well appointed ‘Two’, up to the top of...

Just a quick question, since the 16gb Nano is flash based and doesn't have a HDD to spin up, how long do you think the battery would last if I was to load it up with Apple Lossless files; rather than my normal Lame encoded 320 kbps MP3's? Is my listening time likely to suffer say a 50 to 60%...

There was I last night getting ready to sit down for an extended listening session with my favorite tracks with my beloved Nano, Amp and UE 5's. I got all prepared with a decent cup of coffee, the UE's hung over my neck when just as I asked my 7 year old daughter not to hog the entire...

Quick question going out to you guys that own a Clip +, have any of you experienced any reliability issues with your Clip +'s yet? I noticed several posts on ABI about hardware failure rates amongst owners of Clip +'s. With random freezes, Clip +'s switching off & failing to restart, and with...

Guy's Before you all start surfing for the iPad take a quick look at this BBC article: BBC News - Scammers exploit Apple iPad fever Cyber conmen are cashing in on hype surrounding Apple's iPad. Security firms have come across attempts to subvert search engines to catch out those seeking...

Hi All, Here's a dumb question I'd love to find the answer to, I'm using iTunes (latest); can some please explain to me the function of the Volume adjustment slider within iTunes (right click on track / get info / options). What does this volume slider do exactly, does it affect the SQ of...

BBC News - MP3 players face noise limits recommended by EU The European Commission is calling for a suggested maximum volume to be set on MP3 players, to protect users' hearing. The commission wants all MP3 players sold in the EU, including iPods, to share the same volume limits. EU...

To cut a long story short iHeadphones have some very tempting prices on Jays Q-Jay's at the moment. Since I've never used iHeadphones, I went across to Jay's UK sales site; where I noticed they offer to price match - Upon asking them to see if they could do anything, this is the response I...

Just a quick question regards to iTunes and my 4th gen iPod Nano, I own a EU capped 4th gen Nano and to be honest I find the headphone output to be extremely low, despite cranking up the volume on the click wheel. Whilst mucking about in iTunes I right mouse clicked over an album (get info)...

Okay I've been giving consideration to purchasing a pair of Apple ADDIEM's lately and just about all the reviews appear to biased in one form or another. Some say they are great value and a worthwhile purchase (i.e. the Playback Headphone Buyers Guide PDF, sometimes at the top of this page)...

I've been using EAC & Lame to encode all of my MP3's using the command line options of -V 0 --vbr-new within EAC / Lame. To date I've been very happy with the results - I believe this setting gives me the best quality MP3 file, correct or have I missed something from the command line? I take...

Hi all, sorry if this sounds like several dumb questions - Grado SR60 & SR80i cable: Is it just a plain straight cable or is it a springy coiled affair? Also approx how long is it? Does it terminate at a 3.5mm jack? Cheers Mark

Okay, I recently sold my 4th gen iPod Shuffle on account of the fact that it's quite possibly the most ill conceived Apple iPod ever released. The more I used it, the more I came to hate it. Anyway I even purchased a Scorshe IRM35 tapLINE control adapter in hope I'd find the whole experience...

Local to be is a B & O store that I walk past every day, pride of place in the window stand is a pair of A8's. To me they look drop dead gorgeous, worst of all I find myself being drawn to them more and more. I know that they don't appear to have a good reputation here and there are loads of...

Just a quickie for those of us that live in the UK, to let you all know that both PC World and Currys have just taken delivery and are selling the Clip+, they have the 2,4 & 8gb models in stock (least my local Preston branch did). Both stores seem only to have the black version on display...

Okay, Try as I may, I can no-longer live with my Shure or my UE IEM's - I've tried just about every type of tip, but no change. The problem is due to my right ear canal being too small for even the smallest tips. Using them just leads to pain and another ear infection, so I have come to the...

Hi All, I've searched Radiopaq using the forum's search function and read a couple of reviews and most of the posts, but I'm hoping someone here could offer me their opinions regarding Radiopaq Classic earphones. I'm disabled and funds are somewhat limited, so before I splash the cash I...
