    ULTRASONE NEW ANNOUNCED HEADPHONE Signature Pro

    Do you think you could go more into detail about what you prefer about the T1? I'm thinking T1 could be my next headphone purchase, but I also find the Sig Pro to be intriguing. Quote:

    ULTRASONE NEW ANNOUNCED HEADPHONE Signature Pro

    Hey driver 8,   Do you think you could do a more indepth comparison of to the 750s? I have them and I find them to be sibilant, with a slightly recessed midrange. Do you hear the Sig Pros as a substantial improvement? I'm looking for a headphone that has bass similar to the 750's, but minus...

    itunes to offer 24bit lossless downloads

    Also considering 24/96 songs are like 100mb per track, I don't see this going mainstream anytime in the immediate future due to current bandwidth and hdd constraints.

    Daft Punk - Tron: Legacy on sale at Amazon

      Quote: I wouldn't waste money on a greatest hits album because they only have 3 studio albums, so if you like it you're just going to end up repurchasing the a lot of the same songs. I would either get Discovery or Human After All and if you like one of them, buy the rest.

    New and I have many questions for you gods

      Quote:   Yeah, I would personally look for an authorized reseller off ebay, amazon, or some other place. Headroom prices are usually right around MSRP. I also think the Monster iems should be good choice for you because they come with a lifetime warranty. With something like the...

      Quote: This is another bs crap politicized education criteria that's really starting to get on my nerves. Not only do I have to get good marks to get into university, but now I also have to demonstrate "leadership skills". Too bad Hitler isn't around anymore, he could have given me...

    Standard of cheating depressingly low in undergraduates

    Quote: True, but it is still inefficient and wastes just about everyone's time and money. Also, that part about appreciating the value of work is mostly skimped over.

    Help a teenager avoid buying Dr. Dre Beats

    Quote: Ya, except BestBuy is probably the most expensive place for buying mainstream electronics. Better to try to find a deal online. Also giving her a BestBuy certificate won't encourage her to "think out side the box" about headphones.     Quote: I think this depends a...

    Help a teenager avoid buying Dr. Dre Beats

    Quote: While I mostly agree with all of this, I think if the op were to buy some other headphone that would still be considered fashionable, such as the the es9 or some phiatons, and that sound good, the cousin wouldn't feel left out, especially when she hears how crappy her friends'...

    Are CDs obsolete

    Quote: That's why you need to make a backup, jeehz. I don't see why you think music will start to sell "as an alternate format on USBs or flash memory". By the time CDs die out, the need for a physical distribution medium will be eliminated all together because everything will be...

    Are CDs obsolete

    Quote: Well that's precisely same the system that most of us audiophools employ. However, I think that increased bandwith and hdd space should  eventually eliminate the inconvenient, physical aspect all together. Going completely digital will allow labels to drastically cut manufacturing...

    Are CDs obsolete

    I personally think that in the next ~15 years (hopefully even sooner) we will witness a dramatic increase in bandwidth and hdd space. This will open the market to mass distribution of high quality digital files and the ability to carry them around. I remember before I came to head-fi I used to...
