Hello again, I've been issued in my new job a headset - some generic brand. Honestly, they don't sound so bad! But they do have some problems: Separate mic jack (work laptop has only one 3.5mm), the cable is a cup magnet :) Time for an upgrade! Please review my preferences and suggest a...

I am just wondering, because I am about to return the Behringer, is there anything I could do to verify that it is really broken? I don't want to order another one and end up in the same position... No one ever noticed the kind of weirdness that I did, above?

damn it, I am getting sloppy... Now there's a humvee somewhere in the middle east about to ride over my earbuds!

OK listen to this and maybe you could spot what basic knowledge I am missing about audio jack connectivity... A) When I bought my first decent-audio stuff (a few months ago), the amp arrived first. I really wanted to test it, but all I had was some el-cheapo IEM on 3.5. I had some el-cheapo 6.5...

I think if I am going for 4 digits headphones - and that's a big if, because 4 digits is hifi speaker area - I'll definitely consider second hand. Especially since I expect anyone who'd put 4 digits on cans to have taken proper care for them (and they probably have a few of those, so the total...

Still thinking about the 461's... He's starting from scratch, so I think a decent dacamp and cans will already be like 20 times better than what he's getting now. Why hit him with the entry-level hifi yet? I think I'll get him something under 100 and then the m50x when he's ready :) I actually...

dunno how I've invoked you to present such an assertive argument about the UK second hand market. First, I'll just say I appreciate your time spent here and I have a lot of love for you (no sarcasm). I am an antique trader in musical instruments (the kind that puts music IN records, not produce...

That's exactly my point. It's why I said it's not working like that in what is relevant to me - England. I know you get much better deals in the USA but The import tax, VAT, customs handling fee and specific courier service required to deliver stock liable for customs is like 40% extra in the end.

I am talking about England. I've just bought brand new (NOT refurbished) k712 for 160 pounds, shipped. ebay does a "pre-owned" one for 165 pounds... NO THANKS! :D

dzięki :) I'll take a Polish person's advice about Opera any day! I've already placed an order for the AKG712, they just look really nice and reviews are great. Used value seems to hold fairly, in case I don't find myself attached to them. Thanks to all :)

used doesn't work here. Used stuff costs 95% like new and things don't get kept so well here in England. let's talk only new please :)

And why the Sennheiser offer the 461g for 70 quid and the 461i for 35? The only difference seems to be the g is a generic device, while the i is for iphones? I don't get it, what is the difference?

What about the 461 rattling bass? I've seen a few account of this and was wondering how true this is?

Hi Again :) In addition to some stuff for me, I got my man a Fulla 2 DAC-amp combo. This is for his work, so something not-theft-invoking and compact. I mean, he's listening to music using a work laptop and USB headpiece! :O We must do something! Could I please be recommended headphones for...

Hi Guys, I have a Modi 2 and Vali 2 in the mail, lucky me! Even though I love quality music so much, I don't know how/why I endured listening through built-in soundcards and phones for so long... I am listening mostly to: 80% Opera 10% Piano solos 10% Vocal Jazz (Sinatra, NKC...) My budget is...
