lol.. some of you guys are so mean. :P

System of a Down - Steal This Album!

I just listened to her latest album, and all I have to say is: WOW! Her voice blows me away! Anyone else here listened to anything from her? I'm still awe-struck.

Try Zero 7.

Just got mine in yesterday. I find the highs to be a bit too over-emphasized, but then again I've only used them for about 30 hours, so we'll see if anything changes. However, in my opinion, jazz sounds much better with the Senn 280's. The D66's really lack soundstage, too. However, for...

Augh! My D66's are taking forever to get here from AudioCubes. Sorry.. Random post.

For those that ordered the D66's, here's what they e-mailed me: Thank you for your order. We will just notified by our supplier that the shipment for the Sony MDR-D66SL Eggos which were supposed to come in today were put off until 03/07/03 due to Sony's delay in production. We were unable to...

Sweet! Pencil me in.. I may be done with finals by then. Hopefully, I'll be able to attend my first Head-Fi meet!

I can't wait til my D66's get here! AudioCube said my order was delayed until Friday. NOOOOOOOOO!!!

Update - I just ordered a pair of eggos (D66's). They're not necessarily going to replace the Senns (for now), but I got them for the portability. I hear their sound is superior to the V6's, and some people argue that the V6's are superior to HD280's. So, does that mean the eggos are superior to...

Quote: Originally posted by elnero First off, don't give up on the 280's too quickly. I highly recommend a decent amp, a Meta42 made by one of the DIYer's if you can stretch your budget. I had one here for a few days at work with my 280's out of a soundcard, the difference was pretty...

Edit .. From what I've been hearing, the Sony V headphones have a very nice low end, but the mids and highs aren't so great. Any truths to these statements?

Thanks a bunch, elnero! I will definitely be looking into those!

bangraman - Good point. I'm currently using on-board audio (dear god, WHY!?.. hehe) and I'm waiting for either a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz or (hopefully) an M-Audio Revolution. kenchi - Well, I don't want to be able to hear them, either. My roommate tends to play his music quite loud too...

Even better question, if I do return these HD280's, I'll probably pick something else up at the store. Here is what they have: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bh6.sph/...name___Start=1 so, which one do you recommend, and why? ($150 or less, closed preferred). Thanks!

No, no amp. I'm relatively new to the whole headphone arena (well, the non-stock-earbud arena). I'll generally be using it on my computer (which will have an M-Audio Revolution soon enough). However, I will probably get an amp within the month. Nothing too fancy - probably a small sub $100 amp.

Thanks kenchi. I'll look into those. EDIT - Oh, I forgot to mention.. I'd like a set of closed headphones, as I'm a college student and don't want to bother my roommates nor be bothered by them when I'm studying and such.

So, I bought my first real pair of cans a few days ago. I opted for the Senn HD280's because of some personal recommendations. After about 3 days of burn in, I must say, they sound absolutely fantastic when listening to jazz. I've never experienced audio quality like this before (in headphones)...

Hey guys. I just bought my first pair of "decent" headphones (the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's). I'm really getting into the whole audiophile thing. My next purchase will be the M-Audio Revolution 7.1. I was also thinking of picking up a small, affordable amp. This is where you guys fit in. Since...
