You all are going to think I'm crazy, but I just ordered a pair of MX500 fron Newegg hoping they may be comfortable in my ear. It was only 19 bucks shipped so if it doesn't work out I can just sell them to someone.

If the MX500 is 1.905cm then I guess they're out too because they're larger than these stock earbuds. Thank you for taking the time to measure them joelongwood. I think we're getting out of range here with the Grados and the PX200. Do the KSC-55's stay on any better than the 50s? What...

Quote: Originally posted by joelongwood Just measured them, with the foam pads, and got 3/4 inch diameter. Sorry, you'll have to do the metric conversion. hehe I don't think you're measuring what I had in mind because 2cm seems awfully big to fit in the ear. Here take a look at the...

Quote: Originally posted by LTUCCI1924 bil HI: They fold up to the size of a mans fist and sound almost like full size cans. ITs a trade off. Do you want average sound or do you want great sound. If I were going to get them it would be the D22. How do these compare soundwise to...

I just looked, the D22 and D66 are larger than I was hoping for :\ For that size I might as well wear my V6 outside

I recently got a Samsung Yepp 700H mp3 player, and I need some portable headphones/earbuds to go with it. I can't find the Koss 35's, and from what I hear the 50's fall off easily. The mp3 player came with earbuds which hurt my ears, so I don't know if getting the MX500's would be a good choice...

hm I assumed it to be relased already. My friend's parents own a small video store so I usually get discounts.

I was watching the the recently released on DVD movie Mulholland Drive when I noticed the director in the film is wearing my headphones hehe. Check it out

Getting the stock pads that were on the V6 off wasn't hard at all, getting the beyer pads on the V6 was tough. I used a dime to help get the edge of the pad into the groove.

The source will be the line out of my SB Live. Are most open headphones easily heard by people near you, say 7' or more?

By "in your face" I mean that all the vocals and instruments seem crammed together. Yes I like the impacting bass of a drum but not to the extent that I'd fatigue of it after an hour or so. How would you compare the SR80 bass to the V6's? -Bill

I have a budget of about $300 to spend on a new setup. Cureently I'm using V6's but I'd like something with a wider sound stage and not so 'in your face'. I mostly listen listen to rock, such bands as Pearl Jam, Incubus, Staid, Godsmack, Nirvana, Cold, and Tool. I hearthe SR80's are...

in the V6 specs it says it can take 1 watt

Correct me if I'm wrong, but looking at the photo, it appears to be only one 1/4" pin. So wouldnt that limit it to only 2 channels? Unless maybe the rear 2 channels are rca? dunno

Now I'm just scared to put my V6's on. damn you

Radioshack sells a goldplated 6' one for $11. part# 42-2482. I don't know how it compares to the more expensive ones above but sounds fine on my V6's.

I find Morpheus much more convient. What makes it esecially good is the segmented downloading and the bitrate filter. Also some ISPs limit their newsgroup server bandwidth. Quote: Originally posted by jonpile USENET! It pre-dates the web, and it will still be there after we're all dust...

How does Staind even come close to ripping off Pearl Jam? Staind seems to be much more "dark."

I'm disappointed with Tweekend. It just isn't that fun to listen to it for some reason. The music leaves something to be desired that I can 'groove' to. On a side note lately I'm starting to really enjoy Pearl Jam's first album, Ten. But not on cans on speakers

Quote: Originally posted by AtEase The problem with Morpheus (and Kaaza on which its based) is that it doesn't seem to allow sharing of songs with a bitrate higher than 128Kbps. Which is okay if you are just trying to sample stuff you'll potentially be buying, but even then at best mp3 at...

What I am looking for are schematic suggestions for a home amp for my MDR-V6 headphones. The source will be a computer line out from a SB Live. I don't want the design to be overly complex but should I do run into a snag I can ask my brother (EE Major) for assistance. Thanks -Bill
