oh well, it's STILL doing it only maybe not as much as before as it only started blasting intros for a fraction of a second and only after a couple hours of bus riding. i wish i knew why it does that and how to fix it as it seems that other people's players don't do it.   it does work with...

i KNEW there's be a catch when sennheiser recommended these and the HD 428-S i've yet to look up for portable use... they have abominable swivel cups! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGH! as an amputee, i despise swivel cups and even before that, i never liked grado one bit for that very reason but after trying HD...

the phones were actually the HD 25 SP II DJ versions, but i STILL stand by my contempt. $95 should not give a headache like dentist drills. my K44s do a much better job of disappearing overall at 1/2 the price. i've never heard phones that sounded so offensive in their EQ short of something that...

why do you think skullcandy is so popular? a lot of people are more impressed by how shiny an object is than how well it actually performs. i saw those toy looking cans and had to believe the poster was making a joke. you never know though... i think skull candy has something similar though.  

if you're ever trying to find the best deal on something you're buying online, try using shopping search engines like dealtime, shopping.com, google shopping, shopzilla & pricegrabber etc. and then try searching for the item by it's name & product number to see if maybe some smaller shop has a...

regarding B&H photo... agreed. i've bought a bunch of stuff from them and never had a problem and when i didn't like  the HD 25 SP IIs mistakenly thinking i was getting the studio HD 25s, they took them back without fuss. it doesn't hurt that they generally have the best prices either. that's...

i can't help you on the one side cable front, but would bet that sony's top of the line megabass phones sound at least as good as beats if not better and at a fraction of the price. i'm trying to find cans that have full bass but that don't suck otherwise too.   i'm starting to think that...

dr dre beats are for posers concerned more with showing off hip gear like the latest ipod than serious listening. all the reviews i've read for them by real audiophiles who've listened to quality gear from sennheiser, AKG, beyerdynamics & audiotechnica etc. laugh at them. they're just statements...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

the SP II model SUCKS for anything but DJing maybe.   they have no bass even after 20 hours of high SPL dubstep break in and gave me headaches trying to listen to them for long stretches as they're so bright in the upper midrange & lower treble. i was furious when i bought them as they...

i loved my Cowon U5, ESPECIALLY for playing WAVs and having the best user interface of anything else that i've owned, but now that that cheaper model has been dropped, i haven't been interested and prefer sansa's clip+ which has the best interface compared to the the clip zip & especially fuze+...

i like the sound of my K44s BETTER than the sound of the $200 sennheiser HD25s i bougt for a reduced price of $94 and ended up returning in favor of the K44s as the 44s have more bass and less brightness. i gave up on the HD25s after beating the crap out of them with 20 hours worth of "hear it...

i'm looking for COMFORTABLE over the ear phones up to $150 that have the option to switch to a short cord, that DON'T skimp on bass using an un-amped player and that have nice efficiency. i listen to a wide variety of musical genres, but haven't found any cans that have decent bass extension on...

that might have fixed it. i just had a clean seque between two tracks at volume level 23. hopefully all is well now.   many thanks for your help David. you rock(box)!

Error (X) Unable to open firmware.sb firmware file.   i was able to get the PC to recognize the player by plugging the cable into the C30 and starting to plug it into the back of my PC and the hold the button while pushing it in the rest of the way, but i keep getting that error message...

hmmm.... maybe i could get a USB extender cable, tape that down and hold the button with my thumb or pinky while using the other fingers to plug it in. i TRIED to do that with the sansa cable for over half an hour before giving up in disgust because that player had a really short & stiff cable...

this thread proved to be a total waste of my time. i ended up buying the sennheiser HD25s and hated them so much i returned them even with a $94 deal. they had absolutely NO BASS! i burned them in for about 20 hours too playing dubstep at earsplitting volume levels when i slept, but even then...

looks like a useless solution for me then. i can't hold a button AND plug anything in at the same time as i only have one hand. if you look closely at the pic of my bike, you can see it has no left handlebar. that very issue drove me nuts about trying to get a sansa clip zip i bought to register...

i just bought a cube C30 recently and while i see what all the fuss is about with sound quality, it isn't meaning diddly to me right now as my unit glitches on EVERY mp3 in the first second of play. a little less annoying, the playback volume drops after an hour or two of listening.   at...

i'm going to create a new thread about the glitching

they're making kabooms again? huh. you should be really happy with the sound of a kaboom. they have a pair of 6 1/2" (or is it 8"?) woofers and 50 watts worth of amp power and with the long tailpipe external ports, put out more bass than any boombox i've ever seen. they're just very big and the...
