    Help me with this strange hearing problem...

    Hey there,   I will try to make this as short as possible. Throughout my life I have noticed that I have very sensitive hearing compared to other people. Normal sounds/music levels would be too loud for me but were fine for other people. Going to movie theaters/concerts I would always have to...

    Ears get irritated after listening to music even at low volumes?

    Hey there,   This has been a weird problem that has just recently started happening to me. Whenever I listen to music with my headphones now, my ears get really irritated/start ringing, even when the volume is super low (barely audible). I take very good care of my ears and always listen at a...

    Anyone used Sonos?

    A friend of mine bought some Sonos speakers/network thingy and it sounds like a really cool concept, but I am wondering how the quality actually is. Has anyone used it before and can tell how it works? Thanks.

    Is this a safe level to listen to music?

    Hay there,   I have really sensitive hearing (or maybe I am just really paranoid), and a bit of ttinnitus. About 4 years ago I noticed that some sounds that were normal to other people, were really loud to me. This would mostly include music. When I was in a car and someone would play some...

    Worth it to upgrade STX with Burson Op Amps?

    So I have a Xonar STX and a pair of HD 555's. I am wondering if upgrading the STX with 3 Burson op amps is worth the rather high $270 price. That's even more than a brand new STX :D   I have heard very good things about the Burons, but I am wondering if I could use the money somewhere else...

    Are modern CDs still lossless?

    Since now a days the majority of people don't care about audio quality (iphone + apple earbuds :)) I am wondering if modern songs are still lossless, or do they just put an mp3 on it?   If anyone could help me out that would be great. Thanks!

    Really want to get into audiophileism, but I don't know where to get the audio

    Well I have really been wanting to get into the whole audiophile thing, but the problem is, I don't know where to get lossless audio for the genres and songs I like.   I am into a lot of stuff, classical orchestra pieces, classical piano, a lot of 40s-50s, some 90s rap, a few current "pop...

    Current day "pop" with piano?

    I'm not the biggest fan of pop, but I think it's a very interesting sound when they do rap with piano. Done examples are "Feel so close", "So good", and "Empire state of mind". If you could please recommend me some similar songs that would be great. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2

    Place to get 40's/50's songs?

    Pretty sure they didn't have CD's back then :p , and I'm not too sure of their audio resources back then. All I know is that music was very popular back then and it is my favorite genre. Where would I go about getting loseless quality music from then?

    Is current day music (pop) burned to CD's with MP3 quality?

    I am kind of getting into current day pop music, and I am looking at buying some CD's. My question is if the music on the CD's now is just burned from a lower quality file like MP3, and not a loseless codec.   Sorry if I put this in the wrong section, but I am somewhat new :)

    Hey yall,   I'm somewhat new to the audiophile headphone thing. Anyways, I was have an asus xonar stx sound card right now that I use to power my HD555's. I was wondering if it would be worth the money to buy a pair of HD650's and a Little Dot MKIV amp to use instead of my sound card's amp...

    So I just got my Asus Xonar STX in the mail today. I popped it in my computer, into the PCI-E x1 slot, and installed the molex cable to it. I went into the bios and disabled default sound. I then saved and exited. I booted into Windows and went to Asus.com, and downloaded the latest drivers for...

    Should I pull the trigger on the HD 650's for $330?

    My friend got some HD 650's for his birthday, but he already has some headphones that he really likes (I don't know what they are), so he wants to sell them. I asked him how much he wanted for them, and he said $330. I will be using these with my Asus Xonar Stx sound card from my computer. I...
