Car Audio, need an introduction
I'm only a few months away from getting my first car and the one real thing I'm concerned with is the audio. I know that buying an audio upgrade with the car is probably more expensive and not as good as hand picking the components. I have a preference towards bassy headphones, but I prefer a...- iceshark

Good headphones under $50 (bass)
I am doing a science fair experiment involving Dr. Dre headphones and need a pair of bassy headphones under $50. I wanted to use the Sony XB500's, but since Sony is a very popular brand name (this test is to see brand name biases in the consumer headphone market) along with Dr. Dre's, I am not...- iceshark

Sennheiser HD-25 II new, very shrill?
I have had my Sennheiser HD-25 II's for about 2 weeks now. I do not do any extended burn-in aside from daily listening. However, as I was doing a very thorough comparison of them and my Shure 750dj's, I noticed how shrill the highs were on vocals. When a singer would pronounce certain...- iceshark

Headphone pads for HOT and HUMID?
This year, I feel like getting a new pair of headphones. I have decided to focus on the aspect of portability, as I've been using the Shure 750dj's for anything aside from something so mobile (running, sports, traveling) that I would use my noise cancelling earphones. I have settled on the...- iceshark

I have an engineering challenge- need to prove the benefit of headphone amps/etc.
This challenge may seem simple to some audio/electrical engineers, but I being an 8th grader I am having some issues because its beyond my level of math/science. The deal is, my dad being the science nerd that he is (well, physics major, same difference), says he'll buy me a headphone amplifier...- iceshark

Good audiophile MP3 players?
Ever since I've gone into the audiophile market and bought a nice pair of good headphones that I use unamped, I've recently noticed that my 8 GB iPod Nano 4th Gen. is starting to fill up (see my profile pic :P). I bought it around Aug. 2009 as a replacement for my iPod Nano 1st Gen., 2 GB, and...- iceshark

Will Ferrell and the AKG's
So I recently saw this (in my opinion) horribly boring movie called Everything Must Go starring Will Ferrell, and the only scene that I was totally crazy about was when he was listening to his vinyl records with these beautiful, glistening white AKG 701's. Just as a note for the movie, it has a...- iceshark

How to avoid worsening tinnitus?
I'm only 14 and tinnitus is the last thing I want to bother me for the rest of my life. I am very recent to the "high quality" music and headphone treatment, and I bought my first pair of quality headphones back in March or so. Unfortunately, I found that these headphones (the Shure 750dj's)...- iceshark

SE Florida Meets?
Hi, I've never been to a meet before and as much as I don't mind asking about the details or what happens, I am really interested in trying out some headphones in the 50-100 dollar range. I had my eyes on the Grado SR225i's, but I want to know what else is out there and what there is that might...- iceshark

Grado Prestige series vs the Shure DJ series?
Ok so first off I have had the Shure 750djs for around a month and a half now, which is funny because I feel like I've had them forever. While at this moment I'm not exactly able to go out and spend any amount of money on another pair of headphones, I would like to ask about the Grado Prestige...- iceshark

Cheap, Portable Amp for the Srh750dj
I recently bought the Shure750dj's (as I had been planning for a month or so) for a very reasonable $108, with a little cash left over. Now I am interested in buying an amplifier, because I find that less on my PC, but especially on my iPod, the headphones really do lack that power needed, and...- iceshark

Ath-M50 vs Srh750dj direct comparison anyone?
Hey guys, if you didn't know I posted a thread a few days ago asking about a replacement for my Dr. Dre Solo HD's, and then I found out about the store called Guitar Center which I visited an hour or so ago to try and find the headphones. They had the Ath-M50's and the Srh750dj's, but wouldn't...- iceshark

Replacement for Dr. Dre Solo's
I had these headphones for 4 months. I promised I wouldn't misuse/abuse/or put them into ANY risk of danger whatsoever. Today, while doing gardening work, they smacked on my driveway. This was the first major time I had dropped my Dr. Dre Solo's, and I figured they'd be alright I just had to be...- iceshark

What Type of Audio to Get for this Use?
Hi. I have basically no experience with audio quality for a few reasons. Let me just give you a run-down on what I have, what I need, what I was considering, and what uses I need this for: First, I have the Creative I-Trigue 2200s, small laptop (but I also use them for my desktop) speakers...- iceshark
