Wow...I just got these from dpippel. Altho they seemed to be nice enough but really just a vanilla set of cans...i was all set to put them on the FS forum. Then .. I saw a couple of threads about how the Porta Corda II matches so well with them and I thought...well since i just happen to have a...

I'm happy with the HD-500. I think. On the not-so-good side ...its big - bigger than even a Nomad Zen. But it still slips into my shirt pocket. Not much room for anything else, but it fits. Some may not like the design - its definitely not sylish or the weight but I like both. It has a well...

Help! Not sure if this is the right forum...but... I have a uberized collection of music that I set up to play in foobar. For reasons not exactly clear to me, I downloaded WMP 10 and it somehow eecame the default player....and now...it refuses to play any music. Even when I select "open in...

Using the Creative Media Source software, the drag and drop to the library (from My Music folder) doesn't work at all and the Import option seems to randomly reject my uberized mp3 music folders, while accepting others. Of those that won't transfer, the pop up says that the folder is data - not...

I saw something about this somehwere on these forums... but can't find it. My pc is in basement / my stereo is upstairs. Is wi-fi the best way? If so...how do I go about it. I guess I need a router, no? How do I set it up? how Do I get get signal to NAD521? Altho I don't want to drill...

wrong forum. sorry.

Newegg and other has 1GB for 175.00. But- the add continues on to say: "Cryptographic security for protection for copyrighted data" What does this mean? Sounds like something pulled out of Homeland Security bag. Can I download compressed files that I have on DVD or only directly from cd itself?

I know that the Mobius AKG cable improves the 271S but does it upgrade the 240S? The zu people (can't resist) don't seem to know but guess that it would.

These are seldom seen on For Sale board - especially DT250-250. I wonder: Is this an indication that these are so good that ppl hang on to them rather than sell/trade? I also wonder: Do the 770's have treble as good as 250-250's? I get the idea that I couldn't go wrong w/250-250's but I am...

This is not exactly an audiophile question, but what is it like wearing HD25 in summer? Are they like earmuffs? I started to sell my Shure E3's but then thought that it might be best to hold onto them. What are some good (closed if poss) headphones for un-airconditioned summer?

Edit: I take it back - cd's play fine.

I know pratically zilcho about sources. I am considering either: - Denon D107 - NAD L40 + speakers There isn't much at all about NAD L70 on head fi. Does anyone have an opinion on this system? NAD is offering a 200.00 instant rebate. This will be for a small family room. I listen...

I just got E5 and have been listening jaw dropping sound on IMP 550 alll day! Sounds even better on DR7 if you're into md's at all.

Last Thurs, 7 days ago, I received a confirmation from Koss that my order was received. Haven't heard from Koss since. Has anyone had their credit card charged or better yet, received their KSC-35?

If you had to buy one or the other, which would it be? Can you tell me why? There is a 100.00 difference in price.

Grado 325 retail.........295.00 Grado RS2 retail ........495.00 Grado RS1 retail.........725.00 Is RS1 150% better than SR325? Is RS2 the better bang for buck? Or is the best value the SR325? I realize that $$ spent does not necessarily correlate with quality differences, but as a...

I just ordered ER4S cable from Headroom in the belief that ER4P +amp + cable is better w/Jukebox3 than ER4P by itself. Not just different but - better - right?

I bought a pocket radio - Sagean DT200v. Its a nice radio, but expensive and doesn't seem much different from cheaper pocket radios except for price. Oh, it does get tv channels as audio. I thought it might be good at work, but unless I am pressed up to a window - no msic. I get mostly static...

It seems to me that the DT880 is the better choice if sound quality is close and if you have to buy all this other stuff to make HD600 work as billed on these boards.

Which is better? Jukebox 3 seems a much better value with lower price as well as more features. Is the Nomad Zen's appeal basically the smaller size? I like this a lot, but unless it is actually a better quality player then I will probably go for Jukebox 3. Also does Archos compare...

I have DT831 on the way because I need closed cans. At the risk of little kids following me around giggling and pointing, I intend to use these for commute as well as at work. The design is fine - its just that they're full size. For home use, my current dillema is whether to buy Senn HD600 of...

I have an iPod and supermini V4 amp. I listen to most anything but primarily rock/jazz/blues and some classical. My list of prospects is subjrct to change: hd 600 - ok w/ipod? AKG 501 - lacks bass? px250 - really a 49.00 phones w/noise reduction? eggo D66 - great phones but looking for...

Both are 20GB. Which is better overall? I like small size of iPod, but I'm told Nomad Juke 3 has better sound quality as well as more features.

Where can I buy cheaper than ety site? Does anyone have any links?

I have an iPod. Listen to jazz/blues/rock/some classical. Headroom recommends amp w/ER4s but they say that amp gives too much bass to ER4P. But...I read somewhere in here that ER4P is actually better w/amp. I know it depends on who is listening, but can anyone shed light?
