Hello,   Welcome to another iteration of the 100$ question.  Basically I'm looking for some replacements for my HD428's. They are kinda wearing down and I don't know how much they will hang on in there. I previously had some (partially faulty) SR60's that I loved anyway. I mostly listen to...

Hello,   Basically I'm looking for the best audio format at low bitrates (~96kbps). I need these to store my music collection on a portable player. So far I've been using ogg and I might need to go to q2 to satisfy the space requirements. I've read on the internet about opus and he-aac...

Hi,   I'm looking for a replacement for my Clip Zip which is starting to fail me with random stops and restarts. I'm looking for something around the 100$ price tag that's available worldwide. It should be able to play the usual audio formats I don't need video at all it would be nice if I...

Since there's no huge review thread here like in the portable section I have to ask what are the best cans that I can get for under 100. I mostly listen to rock ( not metal ) and jazz and a little bit of every other genre but with an emphasis on those 2. I had some sr60's a while back and I now...

Hello, I have been an avid user of IEM's for about 2-3 years now. I've gone through some low-end Sennheisers as well as a few Meelectronics models, as well as some random locally found IEM's. Now I'm interested in a pair of under 50$ IEM's which I can find on a site with international...

I am looking for some IEM's for under 35$ with shipping included to Europe. I am listening to rock most of the time (classic, alternative) and blues. I also listen to some electronic music but not so much. I am not looking for anything that's to bassy. I saw the Brainwavz beta but I am not...

I have a PC rig with 4 speakers and a Marantz PM-50 amp. I have the speakers wired in series to the amp. All of the speakers have 8 ohm impendance so they fit with the amp pretty good. The amp output is 70W at 8 ohm but the speakers are 150W(2 of em) and 100W(the other 2). I have the volume in...

I've got a Sansa Clip+ which I think I'm gonna rockbox soon with some Meelectronics M9's. I don't know in what format I should encode my music for this little player. Took this test here http://www.noiseaddicts.com/2009/03/mp3-sound-quality-test-128-320/ with the earphones plugged in my PC...

Is this really the Sansa Clip+? The title doesn't say so but the description seems to match? Isn't it way too cheap at 40 pounds?

Right here Addonsworld @ Amazon.co.uk: sansa Is the 4GB one also the Clip+ or is that the reason it's the same price as the 2GB one?

I'm looking for something around 40$ with intl shipping since I'm from Europe. I'm also looking for something Grado-like. I mostly listen to rock( not metal ) and some electronic every now and then. I'm gonna use them with a Sansa Clip+ I've been looking at the RE2's the Yuin PK3 and the Sound...

So I've had these phones for about 3 weeks now great ones. Yesterday I got the famous Grado Grattle so I've blown in my left earcup. It didn't want to go away so I just did it harder and harder untill it started doing a really bad crackling noise and then finally I can barely hear it. I mean...
