Sony SA series. Glove on the head. Better than both Senn/Beyer phones.

Interesting to note that "Wife-Fi" would translate directly to "Wife-Fidelity." Am I hearing cries for help? :P

iRiver N10 No USB2 but the tiniest sexiest thing alive. Or not alive.

Am I on crack or am I right that the E4 was selling for around $180-190 a few months back? Does anyone know what happened to the price of the E4?

Anyone BUT ESI. They have VERY inconsistent drivers (ranging from decent and easy to install to terrible and extremely difficult to install).

All of you, save the guy with the Coby earbuds, are forgetting the title of this thread. "Worst headphones ever." The 280s are nowhere near the worst headphones ever. Neither are the K501s. Nor the SR325s. The worst headphones ever made were a stereo plug taped to a wire taped to a pair of...

I'm in. I don't know which color I'd like, though... Thanks!

I've done it before. It's fine. The airport people probably know what a harddrive looks like. I took a very non-descript looking LaCie external with me on a flight and had zero trouble.

He means you should try cleaning out your earwax. Mintyfresh, you have way too much time on your hands.

Gopher, 1) It is a well-known fact in the bodybuilding world that working out a single muscle is only effective up to a certain point, in terms of load per day. That routine is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard. 2) TWIFOSOP and Big D are very much right. I would suggest you wisen up...

Bump

My friend is in Japan and is considering purchasing these headphones. Has anyone heard *anything* about these cans? Thanks for your help.

I don't know about you guys, but I buy nice cables because they're damned sexy. I honestly don't care how they "sound."

A better source is not going to change the sound of a headphone so drastically that pbirkett is going to start liking the 650s, especially for the reasons he suggested.

The DT880 headband is not the problem; it's the softest and most comfortable headband on the headphones I've tried (minus the SA series). The weight of the headphone, however, presses the headband down firmly, which can get fatiguing after a while. I also disagree that the 880 is less airy...

Synergy is fantastic once you find it. Before that, it's a pain. Synergy is not really the art of not wasting your money. My wallet has lost a lot of weight to shipping and return shipping fees to find synergy. :P

rofl virometal.

Holy guacamole. Do you guys have pics of the internals? What the hell goes into an amp to make it and its power supply weigh in at almost 100 lbs total??

Hmm. This is interesting. I was under the impression that the 880's high treble peak was around 8k, not 5k. I'm pretty sure that's what HeadRoom has. Hmmmmm. Any takers?

Yeah. If spike can do it, you can definitely.

So I know many of you wish there were more reviews on the higher-end external soundcards and computer peripheral recording equipment. Here's my first contribution. Do not purchase the ESI QuataFire if it were the last soundcard on the face of the planet. For the 10 seconds I listened to it...
