Yeah, bass is pretty important to me. I listen to a lot of rock and metal, and when I play vid games, I wanna feel the rumble of battle. I remember a while back, some one recommended the Swan M200MK2: Newegg.com - Swan M200MKII 2CH Hi-end digital Multimedia system They don't come with...

How's the bass on that swan?

alright, what a good "mid-end" 2.1 setup, regardless of cost?

I am looking for speakers for a 2.1 setup. I already have a passable subwoofer, what I am really looking for are two speakers that can connect to the subwoofer (a relatively old Altec Lansing woofer) wia single pyhton cables. I had some 12+ year old RCA RP-8530 speakers in there, but...

iAudio 7, hands down

opinion =! fact

I had the same problem with my MS-1. Left driver died after a little under a year of light use. I made sure I took care of them. I'm actually working through the details of getting them repaired by Grado Labs. I hope I don't have to shell out the 30 dollar fee they are asking for. Doesn't the...

I think I will get the iGrado because of price. I am still at the entry level of this hobby, and I think getting the M5 later will be a little healthier for my wallet. My MS-1's need to get repaired, so the iGrado will be a good choice for all portable activity until the MS-1 gets back from...

I've never sported a pair of SR60, but I have the MS-1, so I don't doubt Grado's (or Alessandro's, for that matter) quality. But will the iGrado cut it for working out? Maybe I should get them and see if they work well and sound good. I can always return them, I figure. Same with the M5/M8...

Update; is there a difference in the sound of the M8 and M5 or is it only the color?

What about the Shure site itself? http://www.shure.com/PersonalAudio/P...eves/index.htm What am I looking for in particular? It seems the black foamies are the ones M5 owners here at headfi keep talking about. I've never used IEMs. How well do they stay in your ears during active use...

The suggestions you made seem solid. While browsing over them, and I stumbled across a headphone that I almost got for my old mini-disc player, the Sennheiser PX100. I've only heard good things about it, and I've owned Sennheiser earbuds before. Decisions, decisions...

Bump.

I am looking for headphones best suited for portable use. Sound? I'm not too picky, since the custom EQ on cowon players has always been great. Quality has to be fair, though. I'm going to be putting a lot of rock, metal, and the like through 'em. (Can't get pumped in the gym by listening to...

I have the MS1s and I love them, but recently the left channel has frequently gone dead (stopped producing sound). I've tested it on various sources and it has the same problem on all of them. Anyone else have this problem and/or know how to solve it?

I put together a rig about a year ago, and the component that gives me the most trouble is the Audigy ZS 2. I'm tired of Creative's terrible drivers and megaton of memory-gobbling software, and I want something that I can rely on in the long-term. When I'm not gaming, I'm listening to music...

I'm listening to it right now, after fiddling with Creative's EQ and diagnostic settings. I noticed what most owners of this phone say; it has quite honest sound. I'm a headphone noob, but I can hear that the sound is very analytical with no one presence overtaking another. Even on...

It seems they canceled the M5L before it was released, due to poor sales of the past xxL players... Darn shame. 35 hours of battery life is insane. Oh well, not like I'd need that much anyway. (Or at elast I don't think! )

[obligatory]Let me get something out of the way. I probably don't want an iPod. Why? Cost, and it doesn't seem to have everything I want.[/oblig] Also, my iRiver experience has been rather poor. I never knew what BS was until I held one of their terrible flash players. A horrid experience...

Thanks dude!

Hello all. I am looking for headphones that can make me feel Steve Vai's guitar like I do when I play it on my PC stereo setup. Down to the details. I listen to hard/classic rock, metal (guitar shredding), classic (orchestral and piano), jazz, and techno. I'm all over the place with genres...
