    How is the Headroom Little?

    I might be getting a good deal on one, $90-$110(still finallizing deal), and i was wondering if this is a good starter amp. Just untill I can afford a good amp mind you. EDIT: I will be using them with Grado 225's. And is it really safe to keep it on ALL the time?

    How dangerous would a wire transplant be?(Grado)

    I am looking for a rather simple DIY project. Not really to improve sound, just to sort of 'customize' my grado 225's. And to get rid of that annoying twist in the cable. So, how hard/dangerous would it be to change wires, and is there any sort of 'splitter' avalible? And by splitter, I mean...

    How does a NEC CDR-602 compare to a PCDP?

    Im looking for a small footprint CD player, and Ive heard good things about this. But, will it be a worthwhile upgrade from a Sony D33. I will be using Grado 225's >> MINT/RA1 clone. And, does it have RCA outputs, I cant find that info.

    First off, id like to say that I did some searching, and couldnt find anything. So here we go... Anyone have any pics of these pads, preferably in the stock yellow color, but if not thats cool. And when putting them on, do you flip them inside out first?

    How will this sound for rock music?

    Sony DE905 >> DIY Cmoy(need to build) >> Grado SR80 I currently only have the SR80's but I would like to get the other two. Will I be happy for rock, heavy metal, power metal?

    Is the DE905 really THAT good?

    For being one of the 'newer' models, is it really hold up against some of the great PCDP's? And does anyone have any pics? I cant find any.

    Best unit for bass?

    I am doing a serious upgrade this summer, and with the other things im going to get, i cant afford a nice deck. I want a 'portable' unit for home use. Ive been looking into the D25S but I hear its bright, thats not good for a basshead like me, right?

    Best amp for about $300?

    This summer I am looking into a nice new setup. I will be getting a nice pair of Grados, most likely the 225's but I might go up to the 325's im not sure. Well ive given myself about $300 for an amp. I would prefer highly to not build one myself. So, with Grados in ming, what do you recommend...

    How big of a jump is the Grado 225's to the 325's?

    I am intrested in a pair of Grados over the summer, but I would like to not spend as much as the 325's cost. But if the jump is worth it, i will. comments?

    Are the sony d66 eggos harder to drive then the koss portapros?

    When comparing the 2 today, i noticed that when i switch phones, and kept the same volume on my Cmoy, when i put the PP's on after the eggos, there was about half the amount of volume. arent the eggo drivers bigger? i dont understand that. EDIT: oops can someone move this?

    Cables?

    I have a few question as I am a newbie to this stuff. I am looking into accuring some Senn HD600's and I was wondering about cables for both the Senn's and my pcdp. How much of an improvement would I get if I replaced the cables on the 600's and is there a guide for making cables?

    Senn HD600 questions...

    After reading the boards for less then a week Ive decided I want these. But this board doesnt seem like my age group so I fear that different music is being listened too. I love older rock like the beatles, but I am a metalhead at heart. I am also a sucker for newer bands such as Linkin Park and...
