    Best 1st gen iPhone headphone adapter?

    Or is there much of a difference? I just got a 1st gen iPhone and thought you guys could help me choose the right one. With so many threads containing "iPhone" and "adapter" I was having trouble swimming through the search results. Thanks!

    iPod classic HDD noise & vibration - Normal?

    Hey, fellas. I just bought a 160GB classic to replace my 2G mini (seriously). This being said, and apparently having never used a friend's 4G or 5G iPod in a quiet environment, I don't know if the very noticable sounds and vibration caused be my new classic's hard disk are normal. I first...

    Best vintage Marantz receivers?

    I'm looking to get a vintage Marantz receiver. Thus far I've read (in another forum) that any 22xx models are well regarded. Does anyone have anything to add to that, or possibly disagree with that? What are the most recommended, or respected, models for amp quality, all vintage models...

    Good sub-$100 DAP?

    Hey. I'm looking to get a decent 1 or 2 GB DAP for a gift, and would like to spend as close to $50 as possible. I'm a little flexible on that, and if something with more memory is possible, that would be nice, but I doubt that's the case in my price range. And I'd choose a higher quality player...

    My friend is getting a beautiful new Samsung LCD and needs a good HDMI cable to attach his HD digital cable box, then possibly another source as well. What are some recommended cables? Thanks.

    Recommended case/pouch for EP-630 & KSC75?

    Just got my dad the EP-630 for Christmas, and he wishes he had something to carry and store them in. Any ideas? And I also wish I had something for my KSC75. I know some of you guys must have figured that one out already. Thanks.

    Most comfortable IEM's for dad?

    I think comfort will be a major issue and a deciding factor in whether or not he enjoys using them. I'd have him try my im616's, but I want whatever I get for him to be a surprise. Are there any certain models that are known for being generally more comfortable? I'm looking for something entry...

    My iM616 came with BI-flanged eartips ??? AND they hurt

    So I just received my iM616's yesterday, and kinda much to my surprise, they came with bi-flanged ear tips, as opposed to the tri-flanged advertised and discussed everywhere. Has anyone else seen this? It even says in the manual and on the box that "3-flanged" tips are included. And is there a...

    im616 vs. er6i rehash (same cost now)

    I see this has been discussed in some previous threads. However, in this thread, I am hoping for some semi-conclusive thoughts from those who are privileged enough to have experience using both models. Bear in mind that both are currently of roughly equal cost on Amazon. Thanks. EDIT...

    Recommended Turntable, Cartridge & Preamp for $400-500?

    A friend of mine is looking for a new analog setup. He's looking to spend $400-500. I think he will want new components if possible, unless maybe some great used deals exist. Please recommend some of the best options. Is the Debut III rated well for its price? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

    Recommended sub-$40, 1 meter mini to mini?

    For use between AV-710 and Little Dot Micro+. Could get the Cardas from Headroom. Currently asking TURBO if he would build one. What's my best option?

    Need Recommendation for First Amp

    Not too long ago I purchased a pair of HD-580's. I knew I'd eventually need to add a stand-alone headphone amp to properly drive them, and I've now grown sick of the very restrained sound I get through my 10 year old Sony receiver. I also may purchase SR-125's at some point. I'm looking to...

    Cables In the Car (for iPod) - Audible Difference?

    I'm pulling out my car CD player to run a mini to RCA IC into the line inputs. Is anything more than a Radio Shack cable overkill for this, with it being in the noisy environment? Thought I'd ask before I shove the deck back in, because I had to borrow someone's installation keys to get it...

    Best case/protection for 4G iPod?

    I'm looking for the best option for a friend's Christmas gift. He just got his 4G 40GB iPod replaced under warranty and mentioned that it's nice to have a "scratch-free iPod". So I thought I should get him a case to keep it this way. I'm looking at the iSkin that fits this model. I like the...

    Sub $100 Headphones for Studio Use

    Can anyone please recommend good budget headphones for studio use? My company probably won't allocate more than $100 to spend per pair. We do mixing of speech over various types of music. Comfort is important. And the boss is ebay-friendly. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
