Well, this already goes over my current budget by $50, but maybe I should just build up to what I need instead. It would take longer to get where I need to be, but I could get better equipment. Then I could look at the Scarlett and maybe a better mic (SM58, probably). That would also leave me to...

    So, how's this to start me out?

So, doing some looking around, USB mics are eehhh when it comes to vocal recording other than podcasting and the like. Spoken-word, not singing.

I notice all those are studio monitor headphones. What separates studio monitors from others? Also, the reviews on the mic make me uneasy. What are your reasons for suggesting that one? Edit: Would discussion about the microphone be better in another part of the forum, or is it okay being...

Hello, Head-Fi folks! So, the last post I made, I was considering stepping things up, but life happened, money was gone and everything sucked. Since then, though, I've toyed around with demo headphones in Best Buy and other stores to find that my love of heavy bass was fading. I found myself...

:| No help?    I figured this one be one of the better places to get help for anything sound-related. If no one can help here, can I at least be pointed in the direction of a forum that could give me what I'm looking for?

Is bumping my thread frowned upon? If so, I'll just leave it to die and start a new one some other day.  But I would really really like to find out how to fix my sub. 

Any help from anyone at all? :(

Fuse is there, fuse looks fine, as far as I can tell. Could maybe a new fuse just be needed? :\  I would love a simple fix.   Wouldn't a messed up fuse just make it all not work? From what I see, there's only one fuse. My understanding is that if that one fuse doesn't work, the whole thing...

Hey there,   I did a search on Z-680 and the majority of threads I found were in the Computer Audio section. I used mine for movies, PS3 and computer, so I hope this thread fits in this section.   So, my roommate sold me his Logitech Z-680 set for dirt cheap ($50) because he just wanted...

What about those suggestions might make them better, or worse, than the HD555? Without being able to try each one and compare them myself, I would like to know the pros and cons of each, which you would pick and why. Just so I can figure things out a bit easier. 

No help from the fine folk of the Head-Fi forum? :(

Hey there, I've always enjoyed music, but have never had the opportunity to own a good pair of headphones. At one point, I purchased some SkullCandy Skullcrushers. I thought they were the greatest headphones ever. I know, I know, laugh. You can laugh harder knowing I was totally crushed when...

Hey there, not wanting to take over this thread or anything.   Just saying that I'm looking for good headphones for the same reason. Any help would be appreciated by me and probably OP.
