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...

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...

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've listened to electronic music for a darn long time now, and I listen to plenty of downtempo, IDM, drum & bass, ambient, etc. However, I never really got into trance or house, and their respective subgenres. I'd like to know what are some good artists/albums to look into, and which subgenres...

I've decided to buy the Sennheiser HD600, and I was wondering if the Bithead is an appropriate choice for these cans. If not, what other choices are there that would fit these headphones? I have a $100 - $200 budget. Thanks in advance.

I've been eyeing the 60 GB 5g iPod, but I was wondering what other options are out there. I'm interested in: video capability, high capacity (duh), good sound quality, and decent battery life. I apologize if this topic has been made before, but I had trouble finding a similar topic.

I recently did the Kramer mod to my KSC75's, and they worked great. However, after awhile, I started getting this horrible buzzing sound in the right side. This buzzing noise only occurs when there are lower frequencies playing through the headphones, but it renders many songs very hard to...

I've been curious about external soundcards for quite awhile now. I own a laptop and I'm wondering if one of these would be preferable to just buying a normal internal soundcard. If so, what are some good options in this category? Also, would a DAC/Amp like the Headroom Bithead need a good...

I've been meaning to do this mod on recently acquired KSC75's, but I'm having a lot of trouble snapping the grills off. I've been getting frustrated, and I'm a bit worried that I might damage the phones if I tackle this in a primitive manner. What's the best way to go about doing this? btw, I...

Jamiroquai is one of my favorite groups evar. When I discovered them, they were really fresh. FUNKY fresh. Their stuff is an awesome blend of dance, funk, and even some acid jazz. If you haven't checked them out, I highly recommend that you do. As far as albums are concerned, I'd check out...

I am considering buying the Headroom Micro, and I had a query about it. If I wanted to connect the amp to my laptop, would I also have to buy the Micro DAC as well, or is the amp able to connect via USB or some other method? Thanks in advance.

I'm going to use my laptop as my music source, and I'm looking for a good DAC to power a set of cans. I've been looking at the Headroom Bithead and Micro DAC, but I don't really want to spend that much right now. Are there any decent DAC's for a lesser price?

I'm considering buying the Audio-Technica ATH-A900's, and I'm wondering if an amp is necessary to get the most out of these cans. If so, what amp is recommended? (preferably under $300) Thanks in advance.

List your habits (if you have any) while listening to music. For example, when I'm listening to a face-melting guitar solo, I tend to contort my face as if the notes were being wretched from my own hands. This may be due to my background as a musician, but it sure does get funny looks from...

Benn Jordan aka The Flashbulb (he has other aliases, but this is his main one) For those of you who don't know this guy, you should really check out his stuff. The scope of the music is mindblowing: agressive breakcore with insane programming, more melodic pieces, and even some classical...

The Cinematic Orchestra, Bugge Wesseltoft, Jaga Jazzist - All fine examples of this fresh genre. Anyone know any other artists with a similar vibe?

I'm considering buying a set of HD600's off ebay, and I was wondering if there are any dangers involved with purchasing from ebay. (i.e. damage from shipping, low quality, possible fakes) Thanks in advance.

I've been searching for a good set of cans for my first year in college, and I could use some advice. My musical taste is extremely eccletic, and I'm looking for a pair of headphones that could best accommodate this. I listen to more aggresive types of electronic music like...

In this topic, post your music collections. http://img162.imageshack.us/img162/8662/music9xt.jpg I have a pretty eclectic taste in music.
