Thanks for the helpful post, Ruckus. I'll definitely look into the AD900's.

I'm looking to buy some new headphones with a bit of dough I've saved up over summer. My budget's around $150 - 250, with a bit of wiggle room. Currently in my lineup you can find: a pair of ATH-A900's, KSC75's, SR60's, CX300's, and ER6i's. I listen to just about everything, from drum & bass to...

"Next Time" - Emotional Joystick

At work >< Joe Pass - Stella By Starlight / Virtuoso Listening to Joe's beautiful guitar stylings helps the day go by.

Hmm... I notice that Ringo Shiina hasn't been mentioned yet. Her name has a few alternate spellings (Sheena, etc), but I see "Shiina" most often. Of all the female J-Rock and J-Pop singers I've listened to, her voice appeals to me the most. She has a very engaging and versatile voice, and she...

Jamiroquai - (Don't) Give Hate a Chance / Dynamite

Okay, from my understanding, I just include the headphones, a suitable package, $6.00, a note, and send it to them? Or is there something I'm missing?

Hmm... Alright, thanks a ton.

I was walking around the house listening to my KSC75's, and to my misfortune the cable wrapped around a doorknob and pulled right out of the headphone as I kept walking. One of the clip-ons functions fine, but the other has been completely severed. The question is, will my warranty be void...

Phew, I'm not alone in my quest for COMPLETE enjoyment of hi-fi equipment.

Hmm... I can speak a tad of Spanish and Tagalog, but not enough to comprehend songs in those language. I'm a definite fan of some J-Rock/Pop (Guitar Vader, Ringo Shiina, etc.) Portuguese/Brazilian Jazz, Bossanova/Samba stuff, and Icelandic Post Rock (Sigur Ros haha) There are probably a lot...

Posting this at work, heh. The UM1's seem to fit my taste a bit more, as I could sacrifice a bit of detail to achieve a fuller sound and extra bass. A question though, would the UM1's be more suited for slower stuff like ambient and jazz, or would any of the other candidates take priority...

I just downloaded the .dll and stuff for this plugin, but I have no clue on how to install it. Any help with this?

I've read around that the IM716's can sound "cold" and "analytical," which is something I'm not to keen on. Can anyone confirm/deny this? I'd also like to hear some input from people who have owned/listened to the Westone UM1's, as I am fairly curious about them. Thanks for the input so far.

My library is roughly 54 GB, composed of around 7000 - 7500 songs. You guys with 250GB+ are pretty insane o.o

I've narrowed my next headphone decision to an IEM, and I have it down to the ER6i, IM716, and UM1. I'd like help on making my final decision though, so I could use some information on: the isolation of these IEM's, sound quality (unamped), and overall sound quality. My sound preferences...

I usually wear my A900's in bed when I'm reading something or studying. I haven't tried sleeping with them, as I usually just take them off once I feel my eyelids getting really heavy.

Heh, I got a trip out of this.

Heh, that got a chuckle out of me.

Wow that ebony looks very elegant! Nice choice.

Eric Johnson - Hesistant / Bloom

The Flashbulb - Black Lawn Finale / Red Extensions of Me

LTJ Bukem - Cosmic Interlude / Earth Volume 2

I listen to the music at a volume that lets me discern all the details of the music... This ends up being pretty loud most of the time, especially on lower-quality recordings. Also, on lower quality headphones I end up turning the volume louder than I would on my better cans, since the higher...
