Can't find phones comfortable for exercise walking
I need some advice folks. I'm pretty well equipped for phones, but simply can't find a good headphone for walking...and I'm doing a lot of walking lately, attached to iPod, iPhone and/or Hornet. My Shure e500s usually sound good, but I've tried every imaginable tip and can't find a fit that...- AngusMcToon

Large Collections, iCueMix, MoodLogic, etc.
Hey folks... I've got a rather monstrous music collection and had looked at a tool called MoodLogic last year after a strong review in MaximumPC...it's a client and a service that stores affinities between music types and builds "mood-based" playlists. Cool idea, but seemed like poor-ish...- AngusMcToon

Watershe(a)d-Fi?
Don't laugh. I believe I have hit a sonic watershed with my setup...a point in time, however long or short it may last, where I can listen contentedly to my rig without thinking about upgrading anything. Earvana. WatersHead-Fi. Call it what you will. It sounds like what I want it to sound...- AngusMcToon

XTC Re-releases?
XTC is reissuing the entire catalog in the last few weeks, boasting 24 bit remastering, and bonus extra tracks that don't in fact duplicate the 4-disc box set of rarities they put out a few months back. I did pick up Nonsuch today in reissued form, and it sounds great. But I can never tell...- AngusMcToon

Boston Area Head-Fi Festival of Ears
Calling all Boston area Head-Fi'ers. Emerging from the ashes of ill-fated non-started gatherings first in Hartford, then Western MA, Boston must assert itself, unless MA residents are content to let Texas have all the fun. The Proposal (courtesy of dvr): Let's rent a small function room...- AngusMcToon

See the headphone article in this week's Newsweek?
Anybody catch the headphone article in this week's Newsweek, the one with the Hormone Therapy cover? Seems obvious that the author caught up with Head-Fi or Headwize along the research path. Article mentions the craze, shows a picture of Koss Porta Pros or KSC-35s I think, talks about Etys, and...- AngusMcToon

Comparison strategies: Etys, Fixup 4P->4S, TAH vs. HD-600
This is going to be a little long-winded, but I think I'm asking for suggestions on how to manage comparisons...I've gotten a bunch o' new variables here and have begun the auditioning process to start to differentiate among them. I'm trying to balance being somewhat scientific with listening...- AngusMcToon

Can 1 amp do justice to a range of impedances?
This is my first post on HeadFi, and I'm getting ready to buy my first ever headphone amp, and I'm sorry if this question is dumb or FAQ. But I'm a bit baffled by this concept...If you've got high impedence phones--e.g., HD-600s which I just ordered after having completely fallen in love with...- AngusMcToon
