Differing quality in USB cables?

Help with setting up Philips PSC-805 (Aurilium)
Hi, I recently plug-and-played my brand new Philips PSE-805 Aurilium. Upon testing it out with a CD on my laptop, the sound has very loud, constant clipping in it, and then the music goes dead between 10-30 sec and the lights on the Aurilium turn off and won't respond to anything until I pull...- Disiskurt

Any places left to buy a Beyer DT831? If not, alternatives?
Without getting into the AT Woodies, which if I did buy one I wouldn't have nearly enough money left to put a decent system around it, I don't see any closed headphone that piques my interest as much as the Beyer DT831. Does anyone know of a place that still sells them? I've done searches, kept...- Disiskurt

Am I missing something here? (AKG K81DJ)
I've read a decent amount on these headphones before buying them. I've heard lots of complaints about the initial clamping factor, but absolutely nothing about the headband size. Upon doing a search, I've found ONE complaint that the headband was too small. I mean this headband is borderline...- Disiskurt

New computer setup getting on my last nerve
Ok, so I built my dorm computer with my headphone setup in mind, but so far the results have brought nothing but stress, anxiety, and frusteration. It took me 2 weeks of no music until I could get some sound out of there, and things are hardly better now. Let me go down my list of grievences...- Disiskurt

Any potential for a portable DVD MP3 player?
Or what I mean to say, is something around the size of a portable CD player, that can read mp3s off a data-DVD? I've looked around, and I'm pretty sure that there's nothing like that now, but is there any chance that someone will try manufacturing something like this? I, for one, would love...- Disiskurt

Dell DJ Coupons - anyone get them to work?
There's a listing on Techbargains.com (it's in the archives at this point) that lists a $194 shipped price on the Dell DJ30, after a 25% coupon and a "$30 off $300 electronics" coupon. I can get the 25% coupon to work, but not the $30 off one. I added an item to push it over $300 (one of the...- Disiskurt

Presonus HP4 vs. Pimeta (Maxed Out)?
Does anyone have any idea how much better the pimeta is than a Presonus HP4? I'm trying to put together a setup to complement my K271S (I might switch to a dt770 Pro, dt250-250, or A900 in time.)

I've been looking for closed circumaural headphones around the $100+ range since I've been growing really tired of my $30 Aiwa's purchased at the local Best Buy.
