So I recently got the fiio e5 for my sansa fuze -> PK1s, but still think I can get more out of these things. So now I'm considering any amps that are near the size of a FUZE (1.9″ x 0.3″ x 3.1″) that would drive PK1s well and have good battery life. The most important dimension would be its...

I have and love the mini3. I used to have a meier move, but downgraded to free up some cash. I had some time to compare the two, and the move was better, but not by much. The mini3 is just a great value. Ive tried a MINT, which is a lot like a cmoy, and quite frankly, I didn't think it...

how thick is the stem on these things? are they the size of standard canal phones or skinnier? the t400 complys are the ones that westone uses, correct? does that mean that shure black foamies would fit? thanks

it was pretty good, better than the last few. other seasons have been much better though imo.

If its really portable, I'm guessing you need it to run off a battery, or be powered by the notebook. Trouble is, if you're not using USB, it really can't be powered by your notebook. So that leaves battery powered, and the only portable DACs that run off battery that i can think of are DAC/amp...

I find him funny in moderate quantities. If I see too much of him, his style can get VERY annoying. But watching anchorman for the first time I thought was hilarious, although the supporting cast was a huge part of it. and no he can't act

I've noticed many people (at least in the other thread) talking about how the differences that some things may make (cables, etc.) are below the threshold of human hearing. If blind testing is done at many meets in a rigorous and fair manner, I would not be too surprised to see that these...

I'd be very interested because I want to know how some of these minor things (e.g. burn-in) would affect sound.

Im in. But were ganna need more than 3 teams!

Here are some of my ideas, likely all off, so correct me if I am mistaken but, the recorded audio from a band may be compiled from different instruments (it really always is) but once its compiled (not sure how they do it but nevertheless) you're left with stereo sound, meaning left and right...

whats your budget? I got hfi780s cause i read that they are closed and grado-ish. Ive gotta say they really rock. sweet bass, detailed, engaging mids, highs are a little bright (but I like it). Iso is pretty good, too, though not as much as an iem.

ooh i didnt think about the AT open air series. ill look into that. I have tried the dt880s and i found them a little too bright (sometimes sibilant).

I sleep with my um1s all the time. no pain, no infections, and no hearing loss

I have hfi-780s and am very satisfied with them as fun headphones and closed when thats necessary. Now Im looking for some open headphones with a big soundstage, good detail, and very little to no coloration. This may be asking too much, but whats available? I'm keeping my eyes peeled for...

hmm. as long as the drivers are equally spaced, how would you change a headphones "phase"? the waves of pressure are going to reach your ears no matter what right?

this is a tough one, and my rankings shift around a lot, but heres my go: 1) meddle (echoes is the best song ever) 2) dark side of the moon 3) wish you were here 4) the wall 5) division bell 6) obscured by clouds 7) animals 8) atom heart mother 9) a saucerful of secrets 10) a...

what are you going to be listening out of? and i think if its a modest setup, the bitrate will matter before the actual recording quality (unless its really bad i guess)? if its going to be VBR or at least 192kbps out of an ipod, youre probably not going to find grados revealing to the point of...

$520 net. <-- more than i thought... but of course on the low end here.

I do think the 880s present music more honestly and beautifully but the 225s are dang fun. I agree with Redo though in that I find the 225s to have more bass. Im also really surprised you find 225s brighter. The only real downside I found with the 880s was that the highers are very, uhh...

Does anyone have experience/ know if an invisible shield (or other scratch protector) affects the D2 touch screen (using stylus or more often just your finger)? thanks

I looove PF, and my fav can for em would be hfi-780s, followed closely by sr-225s. Both have the right amount of detail and are up-front enough for me. I really need to hear the guitars very closely for PF, and the sennheisers I've tried, 595s extensively, 650s briefly, while sounding very good...

Hmm is right. Oh, could anyone comment on if there is any noise for very sensitive iems (westone) for either iAudio7 and the Fuze? I can't stand the hiss coming from an ipod.

yeah I've been leaning toward iAudio 7. Has anyone tried driving full sized cans from the sansa fuze? It too looks tempting, but I wouldn't mind shelling out a little more so that I don't need to carry around an amp.
