    Sennheiser HD 650 Grilles

    Okay,   So I've got a pair of HD 600 headphones that go with me pretty much everywhere, in my backpack or bag.  The grilles, as has happened to others, are dented and worn now as a result - I do occasionally take them out and push them back, but that doesn't get it back to 100% - more like...

    File structure woes - Batch converting FLAC to LAME mp3

    Okay, converting FLAC to LAME mp3 isn't that difficult - in fact with Foobar it's easy.   My problem is that I want to duplicate the original file structure of my FLAC archive, because Foobar only gives you the option to output to the original files or just dump them all into one file. ...

    H.A.S. Do you suffer from it?

    Headphone acquisition syndrome, that is.     I thought I was set with my HD 600...  I figured that it was "good enough", and that I couldn't get reasonably closer to my speakers without taking a giant step up in price and amplification.     Then I went to the local shop, which has...

    A speaker enthusiast looking for advice on 'phones... with a penchant for ridiculously long posts.

    Hi there!  I'm a long-time lurker that finally decided to register, since I think I may be gravitating towards my first serious headphone setup.   I know you probably see these threads all the time - in fact I see two other similar ones on the first page of this section right now.  I admit...
