    Headphones with similar sound to Cascade Campfire?

    I'm searching for new headphones and while I haven't tried them, the reviews for the Cascade Campfire push all the right buttons for me in terms of sound, especially around bass. However, the fit issues and the lack of inventory right now make that a no-go for the moment. Any recommendations for...

    ISO ~$350 headphones with good isolation to wear over eyeglasses

    I'll be wearing these working from home with occasional sounds of loud children just a thin ceiling/wall away, listening to music while I code. I'm somewhat of a basshead, but not too crazy in that direction. My last earphones were the Westone Alpha Adventure 6.5mm Mirco Driver In-Ear Earphones...

    Thoughts on Fugoo Style S (or similar) as a computer speaker?

    I want a smallish single speaker for my home office computer that can sit on my desk underneath my displays and basically just sound a whole lot better than my tinny monitor internal speakers. Audio for my computer generally means frequent videos, daily videoconferencing, and occasional...

    dual display setup - too wide for speakers?

    I'm thinking of adding a second monitor to my office computer setup, but worried that I'll have to give up my desktop speakers, as the width of the two displays (primary 32", secondary 24") will be pretty wide for my sitting position. Even if not "textbook perfect", could this still be ok, or...

    new AudioEngine HD3 speakers - stupid to be tempted by these?

    What do you all think of the new audioengine hd3 speakers? They're essentially the A2+ with nicer cabinet, a grill, front volume control, a supposedly robust headphone amp, and wireless built in. Apart from the wireless which I don't really need, those specs match up pretty much exactly with...

    Recommendations for sub $300 desktop headphone amp with multiple inputs?

    I'm considering buying Sennheiser HD600's to use with my turntable and MacBook Pro and need a headphone amp to complete the system. I have a decent phono preamp for the turntable and a six year old but working HRT MusicStreamer II that I could use with my laptop (or alternatively get a headphone...

    Wearing custom in ear headphones at work

    I work in an open workspace where it is common and accepted to wear headphones. I wear them myself at least 4-5 hours a day. My TF10's recently broke and the only way to reliably salvage them is to reshell into custom. However I'm concerned about how well these will work for my planned usage of...

    Recommendation for person/shop to repair TF10 with broken wiring

    I'm hoping this is a straightforward repair for a pro and worth pursuing instead of replacing these otherwise great IEM's. Any recommendations for a trustworthy person/shop to fix this broken connection? I'm outside Philly but will happily mail them if that's what it takes to get them to the...
