So MS-1 it is. I'm not going to save for the MS-2's because there are lots of other things I need to buy other than headphones. Maybe later when my MS-1's wear out.

From looking at various reviews on the net, and the Alessandro website, the MS-1's seem to be perfect for what I'm looking for. If I perhaps save up, will the MS-2's be a sufficient improvement? I'm not exactly sure if I want to do that, but this line of headphones could be the right tools...

Hi, I've been rather oblivious to the headphone world out there for quite some time now and I thought I might need to jump in for a spell just to see what I've been missing, especially since my ear for audio and taste in music has vastly improved since the last time I went shopping for...

How much do those go for?

Well, you see... I wanted to get those headphones for their cheap price. I'm on a very tight budget and those headphones are the best for that price. If an amp isn't really necessary, then I'm not complaining. I just want some good ol' budget open headphones.

Hi, I'm going to purchase the Sennheiser HD 555 headphones and I read that I would need an amp to tighten the bass a little. I would like to know how ample of an amp I need to clean up the sound on it. I can't afford purchasing anything expensive so the cheapest plausible option will be fine.

Okay, thanks for the timely replies.

Do you think buying used CD's from Amazon's marketplace is a good idea? I don't necessarily need everything in the package to be in top shape, but I'd like it if all of the collectibles came with it. I also don't mind supporting the artist too. But 5-15 dollars less on a CD is a big deal...

Hi, I want to start ripping audio files to my Samsung YP-Z5 from WMP at a higher bitrate than 128 kbps. It's only 4 GB so I don't know if lossless or 320 kbps is such a wise choise. I can only use WMP because I want to synch album art with the songs and that is the only way. MP3 codec...

Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked.

Thanks for the replies. I just got another $150 dollars by surprise so I should be able to get a few more than I thought.

Well, if not that I've got a small list of albums I want to try: In Their Darkened Shrines by Nile Demigod by Behemoth Stench of Redemption by Deicide Blackwater Park by Opeth And Then You'll Beg by Cryptopsy Slaughter of the Soul by At The Gates All of these are albums I've been...

Asator - Amon Amarth

Is it any good? I'm thinking about buying it with my Christmas money.

I just got Amon Amarth - With Oden on our Side. It's amazing. I really want to listen to Kill by Cannibal Corpse but no one seems to have it around my area. I may have to order it.

FYE and Amazon.com. I really wanted to use yourmusic.com but they don't have any good metal at all. They only have well-known bands lke metallica, iron maiden, and black sabbath.

Well, I don't pay attention to who is the best, but from the music I listen to Mastodon is pretty good.
