Thanks for the review friend! twas helpful, I am in the same predicament you were in, I was originally thinking of zen xtra/karma/ipod now I’ve narrowed it down to karma/ipod and I’m still torn. As a matter of fact I’m about to go down to the local best buy right now and heckle the manager...

yeah ive been hearing alot about the karma alot lately, and the price droped on it as well. I dont know its plastic and it seems kinda flimsy. I owned a rio pmp300 (the origional 32 meg built in ram) it was kinda cheaply built. but i guess its not very fair to compare the first model to the...

Hello everyone, I’ve been lurking the past few months, I haven’t really posted any thing since I got my Beyerdynamic 280's but I’ve been enjoying reading the head-fi forums ever since I’m in the market now for a new hard drive mp3 player. Another college semester starts up next week and I’m...

It did very much Peddler, thanks for taking the time to respond the gumstick batterys, ive seen them. they are rechargable i assume right? it comes with two and ive seen where i can buy more. do they die often tho?

Let me just dive into this, For my portable music needs I have a CD player and a Sharp Minidisk player/recorder. My CD player is just some old Philips model that plays audio on CD and CD-RW and not mp3s, and I have an old Rio 100 that I don’t use anymore (its only like 64 megs with the flash...

oh damn i didnt know about that, i have a sharp minidisc player and its awesome, it just sucks that it takes real time to put songs on it, i just wish i had one of those 32x burning things so i could make minidiscs faster and stuff. thats why i was interested in the internal drive, figured it...

Hello and please help me out here folks, Question 1: Recently I saw a new Sony desktop computer that had a build in minidisk drive inside the computer. It was just like a cd rom or zip drive or whatever, but for minidisks. As I have a minidisk player and I love it I am very interested in this...

omg you guys rule i love this place also, he didnt say harsh trebel he said high. I assume he ment the trebel stands out or something, I havent a clue his equalizer was prolly screwed up. he thinks hes a dj, but hes not.

So yeah I went over to my friends house with my new Beyerdynamic DT258-80's so he could try them out (he uses Sony MDR-V700DJ's and has for quite a few years, the first pair he got cracked after a few years so he recently bought a new pair) before I bought my beyers I tried his v700djs, and I...

Hey Davie, For one thing the beyers, at least for me, give me the effect of being in a soundproof booth or something. Im just isolated from everything, while it’s not completely soundproof the headphones are very comfortable and snug After I read your post I grabbed my cd player and popped...

I just wanted to give a huge thanks to everyone who helped me a few weeks ago in trying to find the perfect headphones. As I said a few weeks or so ago I registered an account here at head-fi and posted a thread asking for opinions on headphones that would be good for me. Well, I got allot of...

I appriciate all the input everyone, thanks much. I think im just going to buy the Beyerdynamic DT250-80 and be happy with them. I've seen alot of good information on them and they appear to be well-rounded. I've seen them for around 140-150 around that range, and thats fine i just hope...

Thanks everyone for your great opinions and the links to reviews they have been incredibly helpful. So I’ve narrowed my options down to a small pool of options: Grado SR60 Sennheiser HD570 Philips HP890 Sony MDR-7506 (MDR-V6) Beyerdynamic DT250-80 Now I just need to find the one...

Hello everyone, First id like to start by saying I'm really glad I found this site it’s awesome I've been reading headphone reviews on various sites for some time now but I’ve been seeing allot of mixed reviews, after reading threads for countless hours here I’ve come to respect allot of...
