COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)
I'm in Korea and saw the J3 models on sale last week with the 4gb model at ~140,000 krw ($125. No tax, came with case). I was about to buy either that or the Z2, but I couldn't find the Z2 sold in stores to test in person. Then I saw the D3 16gb model (non DMV. DMV was ~160,000 krw) priced at...- jjen89

JBL Reference 410: Impressions and thoughts
I originally found out about the JBL/Staples deal off of anythingbutipod's forum yesterday. I called around at the local Staples stores, and on the fourth try, I was able to locate one in stock. The employee was helpful enough to hold the item for me until I was able to pick it up today. When...- jjen89

Favourite book read this year
Young Miles by Lois McMaster Bujold easily became one of the most enjoyable books I've read yet. I like the author's sense of witty humor and it reminded me of a less depressed Ender's Game (another great book though not as funny). If you give it a try, you can msg me if you want to talk about...- jjen89

Glory of Love-by Chicago. It gives me the impression of epic love, or at least of the old-fashioned chivalrous love. -

What song/album gave you your first eargasm.
You're the Inspiration-by Chicago. I was flipping through the channels and caught a clip of this on an infomercial selling rock music compilations. I had to download the song so I wrote it on my hand so I wouldn't forget. Then it was "Urgent" by Foreigner. That saxaphone solo closed the... -
What Are You Listening To Right Now? [#6]
The Wexford Carol-by Andreas Vollenweider Listening to this after I saw a recommendation in a beautiful music thread. It's very good -
Just Really Beautiful Music
Besides "Cristofori's Dream", I also like his "Leaves On the Seine". It's a short piano piece and it has emotion. Another song that wasn't mentioned yet is Hans Zimmer's "Happy Birthday, Maggie". Hans Zimmer's music makes the movie Point of No Return much better than without it. -

Best flash MP3 player to use when running
Another player u might want to consider is the cowon's g3 in case u want to go for a simple player that runs ~35 hrs on an alkali (manufacturer rated it at 50 hrs, but ppl say that is unrealistic). It has a small 4-line lcd, in case ur going for something simple w/o photo or video capabilities...- jjen89

What is the longest, non-stop, headphone listening experience you have had??
A few days ago while I was studying for finals (>_<), I used my ety's er-6i with the tri-flanges for just four hours. It was late at night so I decided to take a light nap, but I feel asleep with them on... I had a huge headache in the morning and a fever during the school day. The fever...- jjen89
