    What Are You Listening To Right Now?

      Any album would get lost between the self-titled debut & London Calling, but Give Em Enough Rope doesn't deserve to be so overlooked. The energy & soul of the debut with a bit more polish & general musicianship... What's not to love?

    What Are You Listening To Right Now?

    "Karvel" from "Disc 3: Beats" of Bjork's Family Tree boxset.       I don't think anyone does boxsets like Bjork.

    Flawless albums

    Bob Dylan's Nashville Skyline is my pick of the day. "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You" is an all-time great album closer.

    Pictures of Your *Mid-Fi* Portable Rig ($200 - $600)

    Some of the pics you guys take are ludicrous Your cameras must cost a ton (or you're just a much better photographer than myself [maybe both]).   Here's my little portable setup. A15 > E12 > B&O H2's.   Works really well. Big fan of the A15 having come from the NWZ-A845 that gave me 5...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

      I'll have to take them outta the house to test isolation properly, but with the E12 on about 60%, I can't hear myself clapping loudly in front of my face while playing anything heavy from Siamese Dream, which is quite a feat. I'll have to get back to you on leakage, but that's not something...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

      Thanks for the tip - I look forward to reading your thoughts on it. I ordered the FiiO L5 cable earlier, but I'm going to take my time & make sure I get the right amp for my needs.     I have a fairly large head (26" circurmference measured just above the eyeline with no hair) and...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

      I'm looking at the FiiO E12 (with the L5 cable from the WM out port). Think that would be a good pairing for the device & B&O's?   I gotta admit, I use ALAC. No difference in sound quality, but I just find iTunes so easy to use & hard to abandon, even if I never buy anything from Apple...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

    Hey, I think they look pretty cool They sound quite a bit nicer than my MDR-10RC's which have been my go-to cheap & cheerful portable headphones this year, but I'm going to give them time to get played in before putting them against the HD598's for my home setup (and also through the A15, just...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

    Decided to spoil myself for Xmas and pick up one of these, a hefty microSD card, & a new pair of headphones (B&O H2's). Started transfering music, but after the first album (Air's "Moon Safari"), I decided I'd just give it a quick listen to make sure everything moved over OK... That was about...

    SONY NWZ-A10 Series

    Morning people :) Lurker & 3 decade Walkman user here.   I've owned and loved the Sony NWZ-A845 for four or so years now. The thing is, 16GB is just too limiting, to the extent where I've had to consider moving down (again) from 320Kbps MP3's to 192... Then I thought to myself "NO! You're not...
