Are portable amps really worth it?
I know it's hard to quantify an improvement in sound from moving to a portable amp but could anyone give me some sort of percentage indicating the increase in sound quality? Of course you everything has to have stayed the same before and after the adding of an amp, hell, as you read this try...- bluey_02

Verdict on SE420's
Got them in the mail the other day. In a word they are awesome! I love how balanced they sound, I won't pretend I know what highs and lows are but they are perfect for my 320kpbs mp3 and ALAC files. The bass isn't overpowering of the other details and I can hear instruments I never could before...- bluey_02

My iPod nano is destroying my headphones!
I have a nano 2G and I used to use Grado SR80's which were recabled and the plug a right-angled Neutrik one. I switched to Koss ksc-75's and everything was great for a few months but recently the left channel has stopped working. I look at the plug and I see the gold plating has been rubbed off...- bluey_02

E4C's for 34USD?
Hey guys I have found some E4C's for the amazing price of $34. I'm tossing up whether to buy them or just wait till I have the odd $150 for the updated SE420. I guess what I'm asking here are they worth buying (for someone who doesn't have much money), even though they're an outdated model?- bluey_02

Updated M6 (M6se)
Those Meizu players are nice, but they just got nicer. As the heading says, you get video and an FM radio for 100 less than the iPod nano, well, so they surmise. If anyone had any doubts buying an M6, they should be gone when this is released.- bluey_02

My SR-80's need a new headphone jack..
Hey, I found the right channel stopped working unless i jiggled the jack around a bit but now it's totally stuffed and yes I've isolated the problem and it is the jack. Anyway I don't have warranty on them and I was wondering what the best (and possibly fastest) way to fix them would be. Should...- bluey_02

My iPod nano 2G sounds as good as my PCDP, unamped!
I just got my 8gb nano in the mail. I set it up, put my music on and gave it a try. I use Grado SR-80's and granted those aren't amazing headphones they still exhibit a lot of detail (although I haven't tried a better pair of headphones yet). I realise after a minute or two that the audio...- bluey_02
