Ok, so I plan to get a PS4. I opted not to get a mixamp or the Creative X7 (both are going to use optical anyway), but I do have a receiver, although it's old. I also have a Creative X-FI Titanium HD for my PC, so I guess outputting to that is an option as well, while I'm pretty sure that's...

Battery life is quite important, as is sound quality (I have a pair of IE800's from Senn, so it's not that important), water/sweat resistance... I'm cool with over ear (not on ear), but mostly probably looking at in ear. Just whatever will get the job done. Any suggestions?

waste of space

I've seen the Fiio E10k, AudioQuest DragonFly 1.2, Stoner Acoustics UD120 (which doesn't play nice with my laptop), Schiit Modi 2, and a few others I may be forgetting. For the price and portability (really like/want the form factor of a flash drive or little more), this HiFiME 9018D really...

This is my own personal list based on my research. Big factors are quality, library size and User interface, as well as support (in order of importance).   My vote would be for Google's all access service for now. GOOGLE - Great customer support - over 30 million songs - 320kbps quality...

I'll be hooking this to my laptop which only has USB available. Totally down to buy used. As far as I understand balanced is only offered using xlr and 1/4 inch TRS right? In any case I'd prefer the amp/DAC in one piece. I really prefer a neutral sound as well. My upcoming presonus T10 and jbl...

My sub on my ProMedia 2.1's just blew, which is probably a good thing from what I've been reading about them and other speaker setups. I got them for $90, and they aren't bad. I'm ready to move on to better though. I'm still not going to go all out as speakers can easily cost in the 100's of...

The biggest thing is that there is a starving student version for $550 plus around $15 shipping. For the price, it's an amazing deal. After my research I would get it over HifiMan's offerings, Audeze's offerings, Fostex's TH900, and Sennheiser's HD800, due to the sheer fact that for half the...

I prefer a linear, neutral, reference headphone except with emphasis on the bass. Needs oomph, meaning great extension as well as quality and quantity (nothing like rattling my head, but certainly not lacking like a AKG Q701). Soundstage is quite important as well as imaging so I can benefit...

So, I was looking to get some new headphones. IEM's hit the marks when it comes to portability and being able to listen to in public/working out, but can they match/near match the performance of my AKG k702 annies? I even considered the HE-500's. I prefer a neutral headphone that has great bass...

Just remove this. This is too much work that I don't care enough about along with too little time.
