I got the Skullcandy SLYR headphones a couple years ago dirt cheap ($25, used, without the mixer/accessories) after reading recommendations in the gaming headphones thread and they are my current favorite phones for listening to rap as well as for stuff with more vocals like Rilo Kiley and the...

I'm on my third pair of ksc75's (others were broken and/or lost) and have been on this pair for a few years now and its lasted through my repairs and clip replacements. After taking off and putting them back on so many times the clip on the right barely grips the actual driver piece and i have...

It's been a while since I've last posted but since the headphones I've been wanting are now discontinued and somewhat cheaper, I thought I'd get back into my old hobby.   In recent years I've stuck to my KSC75's and my JVC in-ears (air cushions were discontinued so i picked up the bassy 101X...

I started my headphone journey a little over 10 years ago when I was searching the web for a good pair of DJ headphones. At the time, I couldn't afford the Sennheiser HD-25 II as I worked a summer job and spent most of my cash on my actual DJ setup (and lots of records). The next headphone that...

I'm getting serious about resurrecting my Technics SL-1200Mk2's which I bought used (crappy gold spray paint finish included) about 10 years ago but I'm not sure whether or not I should just sell these and move on to some decks in better condition. They've been sitting at my parents' house...

First some background as usual, skip ahead 4-5 paragraphs if you'd like. Yeah, I like to be thorough so my questions aren't answered with more questions:   My most expensive headphones (also my first purchase) are my Senn HD 280's from almost 10 years ago (they were bought for DJing purposes...

so i recently bought RSL 3600 monitors to go with my kenwood ka-7100 amp and have been using my netbook to play music through the onboard audio. i'm happy with the bass these speakers have but the upper end is a little lacking. now i've been thinking about improving the sound by getting a usb...

i know these topics come up all the time, but i'm wondering if anyone has my same amp and has found good budget speakers with good synergy. i'm still relatively new to this hobby, though i've done a good amount of research/lurking in the headphone sections. i listen to classic and 90's rock...

it's been a while since i last posted...but after more lurking i'm ready for another huge post, haha. my deejaying days are long gone and i have 2 busted up technics 1200mk2's that i got more than 7 years ago used. they both need to be serviced as the sound in one channel is going out and the...

i'm buying new parts for my computer and i've been having trouble choosing a motherboard. i currently have an SB Live 5.1 card and will probably use this on my next system. instead of buying another card for listening to music, i'm wondering if a motherboard (in particular, the albatron...

i've had the hd280's for a while and i've been looking to get more out of my listening experience. at the moment i only have a cmoy for an amp and my sources include my rio karma, my computer which only has a sb live 5.1 w/ kx drivers, and a portable cd player. i love my hd280, but i'd like...

i already posted a "looking for headphones" thread not too long ago, but the headphones that i'm considering have changed a bit since. right now i have sennheiser mx300's, panasonic hje50's, sennheiser hd-280's, and a cmoy amp. i'm currently looking for open headphones that surpass the...

hi everyone, first time posting here after reading lots and lots of posts over the past few weeks. i've had sennheiser hd280pro's for about two years (?) now, got them when they were $75 at amazon. they were intended to compliment my dj setup, but i started to use them more often and haven't...
