I use my iPod primarily for music and Podcasts. However, I do have 60 videos loaded on it--for those occasions when it's nice to pass the time quickly (the airport, waiting at the doctor's office, etc.). My videos include: Seinfeld episodes All in the Family episodes The Three Stooges...

I ordered my 5G 60 GB iPod the day after they were introduced to the market. It took about 10 days for it to arrive. The shipping times might be faster at this point.

Apple charged me tax on my recent video iPod purchase.

I've decided to order the Agent 18 case for my video iPod. It will be available later this month (November, 2005). I especially like the more open access to the bottom port. This is one of the few hard cases that will accomodate connectivity to my Sendstation PocketDock. Also, I am expecting...

Quote: How does it work? Will it scroll the lyrics down or what? The lyrics do not automatically scroll down on the iPod. You can use the scroll wheel to navigate through the lyrics while the music is playing, however.

One of the Ety triflange tips got stuck in my ear canal as I attempted to remove them. After a few seconds of panic, I grabbed a pair of tweezers and was able to gently pull them out. It is a scary feeling! What's even scarier is a quick involuntary removal of the eartips. I accidentally hit...

I bought a Supermacro 2 about 3 months ago. I am really enjoying the amp. I am wondering if it is worthwhile to upgrade the amp to the Supermacro 3. Is the difference in sound quality worth the cost of the upgrade? Since I have the four switches, the upgrade would cost me just over $100...

Well, I own the Ety ER-4Ps and the Senn 595s. I also own the Supermacro amp with the ER-4P to ER-4S adaptor. I tend to listen to my earphones with the amp. I use the ER-4Ps for portable use. They are outstanding for isolating sound when commuting or working out on my treadmill. They sound...

I wear my Ety 4Ps when I'm out---whether it be during a commute or for a workout session (treadmill). I use the Sennheiser 595s when I'm at home. I really enjoy the comfort that they provide, but they are not very portable.

Quote: Did your Etymotics improve in bass and treble as well or some other propertys? It seems like the bass has improved with time. This could be purely psychological. Or, it might have something to do with learning to get a better seal with additional use. In any event, I like...

Quote: If theres no physical change then surely there must a pretty big psychological change, because I'm pretty sure my ER6i has better bass and treble response than when I first got it a few months ago. Maybe it's pschological, but it seems like my Ety's have improved over time.

I would like to recognize Dr. Xin for his outstanding customer service. I ordered a Supermacro amp just over a month ago. A couple of days ago, I noticed that the Coby AC-DC Adaptor was not charging the batteries inside the amp. The adaptor was clearly not working properly. I sent a...

I wear a size 7 5/8 hat and just purchased the Sennheiser 595s about three weeks ago. I find the headphones to be very comfortable!

Quote: That's a big problem that he needs to correct. I know how I plan to correct it. I'll never spend a cent on one of his products.

The site is back up and running now...

Quote: Can you actually get into the site though or is it just me? I'm getting a 'cannot find server' error. I am not able to access Dr. Xin's website either. I'm sure that it is down temporarily and that your order will be processed soon. I waited about two or three weeks to receive...

I use the Energizer AAA rechargeable batteries in my Supermacro. I bought them at Wal*mart for a very reasonable price. If I recall correctly, I paid about $9 for four batteries mAh 850 AAA batteries. Energizer Rechargeable Batteries

After considering everyone's input, I am going to stick with my HD 595s for now. I don't want to go down the path of "upgrading" my source (one year old iPod), my amp (one month old Supermacro) and my 26 day old headphones! I'll just stop the madness and stay with the 595s for a while. Maybe...

I purchased the Sennheiser 595s about three weeks ago. The vendor (Headroom) has a 30 day exchange policy. I have about 4 more days to decide if I should upgrade from the 595s to the 650s. The incremental cost is $130. Does this upgrade make sense for the money? Most of the time I am...

I just received my Supermacro with the OPA227 yesterday! I am using it with my 3G iPod (tunes encoded at the 224 AAC bitrate) and the Senn 595 headphones. So far, I am impressed with the sound. I had the four switches added to the Supermacro and have activated the bass and crossfeed switches...
