I've wanted a real portable rig for quite a while and finally sprung for it. Bought the Sennheiser Momentum, an iPod Classic and a FiiO E11. Advice, opinions, etc? Should be pretty fantastic.

I want a new portable rig.   I want to spend $400 max.   Want an amp, headphones and a high capacity MP3 player. Don't recommend the M50 is the only thing I ask.

I have the opportunity to purchase a restored Marantz 2252b that, if purchasing, I'd plan on using as a headphone amp and a stereo amplifier for some B&Ws. From my computer, I have a uDAC hooked up then to my current receiver for 24/96, then my turntable to that cheap receiver as well. The...

So currently I have a pretty average Sony LX-300USB turntable for vinyl. I just replaced the needle and it sounds good, but not like fantastic. My Uncle just gave me his old turntable, the table itself doesn't look too expensive as it is an old Kenwood KD-48F Belt Driven auto turntable. It has...

Hey, I know everyone knows me as the Magnolia guy, just an fyi, ALL Magnolia Best Buys will now have a special "headphone audition" section.  It'll be loud, so open headphones is kind of useless, but still.  Just picked up the HD558 on discount for dirt cheap!  They are selling the ATH-AD700...

I have that cheap Sony 300 turntable...it's not working well automatically, I have lots of issues with it, and it's kind of cheap, so I'm looking at three in three different price ranges.  I'm curious as to which of these is the best deal.   Audio-Technica AT-PL60 Pioneer PL-990 (I'm a...

I often use the HD280, Bose OE, HD428 for portable use off my Touch latest gen. Should i get an amp? Im satisfied now.

New listening stations at the new Best Buys in Dallas. OMG good headphones for the masses. Some of the new ones have a special Magnolia AV section and they have a listening station in them. They also sell headphone amps, high end record players and I saw the B&W Nautilus. They had the 800s, 598...

  ...and now   a review of the notorious Sennheiser HD280Pro Reference Headphones     Okay, I know it's kind of a scary thought, but I do work at Best Buy, in Magnolia Home Theater, in fact.  What that means is that it helps me through school and I get all the perks (and...

So, here's the deal, I have a Nu Force uDAC2-HP that I use for the computer and CDs, but I am a huge vinyl fan, and I have a home theater setup.  The vinyl player is just hooked up to the receiver, a Pioneer VSX-518 from a few years ago, and I turn the speakers off, set it to Pure Stereo, and...

I stumbled onto some of these at the Galleria Best Buy in Houston in the Musical Instruments section, and considering I work at Magnolia HT, I purchased them for $60 on our discount because these are the "legendary" Sennheisers. Now, look, I don't do much browsing on here because there's such an...

So, does anyone have any ideas how I can hook this thing up to my iPod/Android/TouchPad? It has a USB-B port on one side, and I'd like to hook it up to one of these things, but I can't find the cable I'm looking for, either a iPod-to-USBB or a MicroUSB-to-USBB.

Okay, so I own the Grado SR60i but the open design drives me up a wall and back down. I own the Sennheiser HD428, but paid like $20 for them (BBY employee discount), I own a pair of the Bose On-Ear headphones but those sound really messy and are poorly made. I also own a pair of Klipsch Image S4...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvClJOA5lqA So let's see, that's Jeordie & Peter with Sennheiser HD280, Trent with the Beyerdynamics?, and Atticus with the QC. This isn't a studio recording, this was a radio session. Well, it's good to know Trent likes some GOOD headphones. Because...

I posted an interesting response that really got me thinking and stating my view...so I'm curious to get the Head-Fi community's opinion. I've listened to headphones such as the HD800 and the Grado RS-1 on a DAC, and have to admit they sound great. However, first off, I don't have the cash to...

Sennheiser HD428 Review First Impressions: The only Sennheiser I had ever heard before were some low-line HD models, and after the Best Buy I work at started offering a wide selection of Sennheiser (even the prestigious Audiophile line), I decided to take the dive into the world of...

Cue the Galactic Empire theme song. Anyway, quite sick of the Bose bashing that takes place because of their overpriced surround sound systems and shady marketing; so I decided to make a review of Bose's best hidden-gem. No, not the huge, gigantic Over-Ear flimsy TriPort, but the small...

I'm absolutely enamored with the way these sound...so crisp and thick, and have a lush mid-range. They sound amazing from my iPod but even better from my AV receiver. It was quite amusing last night, my nephew came in, and has really only listened to some Bose (he's like 12) and was jamming...

Powering some Grado SR60s and Klipsch Image S4...the FiiO seems promising but the hiss worries me. The iBasso looks sleek and would be perfect to velcro to my iPod, and seems of much higher quality, thus the price. But how big a difference is sound quality? I like the FiiO's price a lot...

I found a Grado dealer in the Houston area, finally. I'm going to go and listen to each one. I'm not going above $200, but want to know, what is the gigantic leap from the SR60 to the SR225? They have them all, but I'm a experimental music listener and want to go with a little idea of what I...

I saw these at BB and was intrigued (at the fact BB was selling Senn) first, but because my girlfriend wanted good phones. These are on-ear models...anyone heard them? They look open, like a Grado almost.

Koss PortaPro Review ----- After finding that my Best Buy sells these now, and hearing so much about them. I decided to take the dive and bought a pair. Especially considering I only paid $20 for them. I own a wide variety of high-performance speakers (Paradigm, SpeakerCraft, DefTech) and a...
