Quote: Got a CD burner? Not satisfied with the sound of your current headphone rig? Want to improve the sound of your rig at no cost? Send me a Private Message (PM)! how do i PM you, Joe Bloggs? e-mail?

nevermind, but for $60, i will get the senn. hd 497/212 thank you all for your opinions and comments i appreciate it

Quote: Low speeds, including 2x and anything below 8x won't always mean higher quality. In fact, in many cases, lower speeds result in worse block error rates and jitter than high-speed copies my CD have LESS ERROR if i burn them at 1x than at high speed 8X. btw, i use a HP 8/4/32...

all and all, do expensive cd player [like those new generation slim and thin] really SOUNDS better the cheap ones [found in kmart]?

i think that getting a better HEADPHONE really improves your music experience than getting a new cd player i agree!

delenda est Sony, you can do a mega-review of all of the new sennheiser? the hd 497, hd 212...etc/ thank you in advance

do either the Alessandro Music Series One or the Grado SR-80 required a headphone amp? can i powered them directly off my portable sony md?

speaking of grados, someone suggested Alessandro Music Series One, which perform like the grado sr-125 for the same prices as the grado sr-80 Alessandro Music Series One--- $99.99 Grado sr-80 ------------------------ $99.99 has anyone did a A/B comparison between the two? once...

head-fiers are suggesting the Alessandro Music Series One..which is like a MOD grado

Quote: MY definition of "MUSICAL" is enjoyable and pleseant to listen to. a "musical" headphone works great with every genre to music from bass-pumping of electronica to soft tone of classical

whats best MUSICAL headphone? 1) koss ksc-35 [the athletic phone] 2) Alessandro Music Series One [sounds and looks like a grado] 3) senn. hd 477/497 [the underdog] 4) ety. er-6 [ety sound for half the price] IMO, MY definition of "MUSICAL" is enjoyable and pleseant to listen to. a...

thanks, dgs.

hey, so many choices and im confuse now sony v6 is out [too analytical and dry] grado sr-60/sr-80 is out [senn. hd 497 sounds better than the grados] but i have increase my buget to $120 USD, now my choices are: the most MUSICAL headphones 1) koss ksc-35 [the athletic phone] 2)...

great review, it REALLY sounds better than the grado sr-80 how COMFORTABLE is the hd 497? i find the senn. 490 live/495 to be comfy. is it MORE COMFORTABLE than old senn. 490/495 someone should do a comparison between the senn. hd497 and koss ksc-35 or hd477 vs. hd 497

Quote: Step up from the KSC-35? Hell, from the reviews, it's a step up from the SR-80, which we all know is a step up from the SR-60, which I have, which *I* know is a step up from the KSC-35. That answer your question? Although the impacting bass versus the SR-80 (I wouldn't suggest...

Quote: I woulda said HD497, but he's a bass lover, so...V6... have you tried the senn. hd 497? how does it compared to the koss ksc-35? is the hd497 a step-up [upgrade] to the koss ksc-35 to my ear, the koss ksc-35 have GREAT bass for a portable!

did a search of head-fi.org, i have read that people find the sony v6 more analitical/sound dry (sp?), not musical at all... any comments so far, im INTERESTING in getting the senn. hd 497. Quote: hey! what about denon headphones?!? denon, what model? are there under $75

Quote: if your name is bass man i love bass, man! although i HATE using the BASS BOOST on my audio player, it makes the music sound crappy, bloated, and very boomy!

Quote: If you guys want, I could try to summarize in more details how MP3 works. I just had a great lecture last week by Dr. Roth on the subject. (plus it'd be a good exercise for me, so I remember for the exam ok. that would be very helpfull

im looking for a pair of headphone for my HOME system. so i dont mind if its open/close. im looking for a headphone that is very comfortable to wear over long periods of time and suitable for every genre of music especially rock, r&b, jazz and electronica/techno. as for bass, im a NOT a...

"The ER-4 drivers are 3.5mm vs 9mm for the EX-70s. Although the drivers are smaller, the overall assembly is longer. The Etys are inserted much deeper into the ear canal, but still protrude considerably more" just wondering, are there CHANCES that you might insert TOO DEEP in your earcanl...

Quote: Another option would be the Senn 477. I have tested these vs. the Senn 497 and found little sonic difference srapps55, since you have review the new senn. phones, which one would you recommened for electronica/techno/r&b music? btw, has anyone did a comparison between the...

while i use different bit rate with different genre of music for example, for electronica/techno i use 192 CBR and for r&B/slow-jam i use 160-192 CBR "Use 192 - 320 VBR" i dislike VBR cause mp3 file size will be bigger than the usual VBR. not great on my 128MB mp3 player

im no audiophile but do you think its wise of me to get the ETY ER-6 since i cant tell the difference between 160 kbps mp3 [using LAME] and the actually CD. i know headroom has a good return policy but living outside of the USA. i dont want to pay custom and international shipping for TESTING...
