Hey guys, I'm wondering what the best will be?  I'm not sure I really need portability, so that's not a big issue.  It seems the difference between the two that is the biggest is USB/Aux/Line-out vs. Optical/Coaxial/Line-Out.  I recently got a Creative X-Fi Titanium HD and I love it.  It...

I just got my SR325(i)s and it basically does everything that the Grado SR60 didn't for me.  Now I'm looking for a 'phone to maybe replace the Grados for games and movies for when I go back to college.  It's a 99% chance that I'll be trading these, so something within the ~$70-80 price range.

I recently was reading CPU magazine and they reminded me that Foobar2k 1.0 was out, so I went to download it.  I don't know what it is, but something about it sounds better than iTunes.  Of course it's all software driven, but it's just bass drums are crisper and the detail overall just seems a...

Well, I got some Triple fi 10's from a user on here before I left for my trip to Spain.  So far, I've discovered a nic in the cable to where it's showing, and now the left nozzle is literally coming off where the body and the nozzle are put together.  The cable is ok, and not a huge deal as the...

So, I'm still in search of this, but the most important aspect is that my amp is a cMoy amp.  I can spend money on an amp now, but it'd almost be like buying a really nice amp without headphones to go with them.  I would actually like to get an amp, but I would really like to get some headphones...

I've come to the conclusion that after 3-4 months of owning the Shure SE530's that I still love my Ety ER-6i's that much more. The Shure SE530's are still fantastic IEM's, but the treble roll-off kills me with certain music that doesn't emphasize treble. The Shure's are great though. Fantastic...

Well I've always read that the DAC audio is better than the headphone out on the iPod's, so I've been looking for an amp. I have a cMoy, but I want something that has a volume knob at the least. I plan on getting better headphones in the long run, so I would like to find an amp that has high and...

So, I think I've lost my Ety ER-6i . I was looking for them this morning because I plan on getting a 160GB Classic today. I can't find them though . I went home for the weekend and my mom checked my room today and said she didn't see them or the pouch I keep them in. I only remember using them...

I'm deciding if I want to upgrade my IEM's or my fullsize headphones, and I'm thinking I would end up with a better upgrade if I upgraded my full size headphones. My only dilemma with high end cans is amping. I have a cMoy, and that's it. It has high/low gain and a bass boost. I would be...

So, I've been out of the loop for a while. A while means LiveWires were the FOTM, there was only one version of the SF5, and the SA6s had just come out. Now I finally have the budget to spend on a really nice pair of IEMs. Back from what I remember, the Triple.fi 10 and Shure SE530 were the...

I just currently got foobar the way I wanted, but I've searched and can't find an ALAC decoder that's not v1.0.3. I'm using Foobar 0.9.5.2 and the newest version doesn't work with it. I'm curious to see if anyone year has a foo_alac.dll that's probably v0.9 or less.

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but there are two left. There was three, but I ordered one, and now one is left . Creative Labs Outlet Store - Deals, clearance items, and refurbished MP3 players, sound cards, speakers, cameras, and more

It's been quite a bit since I've been into the audio market, let alone on this forum. I've had my SR60's for about a year and a half now and have to say I'm pretty impressed. Unamped they are amazing, and with my cMoy, the bass boost is a very very nice feature, but the gain (even when set to...

I've had my Grado's for about a year and 2 months now, and I love them, and I've actually avoided this site in fears of spending more money, but now I'm curious as if there are any headphones for around ~$120 that could be considered as an upgrade. I love my Grado's, but it'd be nice for...

Well since I had been spending a lot of money going to the movies lately with the girlfriend and leaving myself basically nothing left to spend, I decided to splurge a little on myself yesterday since I recieved my check for helping out w/ the polling places earlier this month. What did I buy...

Ok, I love running this cMoy before it hits my CD Player. Here's how it is currently set up w/ amp: Computer>cMoy>CD Player>Cerwin Vega D-3. Now the bass is ridiculous and crazy, and it's the only way I can really add without it drowning out other frequencies (EQ's are good for that...

I've been pretty inactive on the forums since I've been happy and I've tried to stray away from this becoming too expensive of a hobby . But, I did notice today that the Senn. HD555's were $99 on amazon. Now from what I remember, the last time I saw these headphones, they were around $150, or so...

Hey guys, haven't been all that active on here as much for about 6 months now, so I thought I'd start getting back into my hxc listening hobbies again. Been spending a lot of time on a couple computer forums so I can learn as much as possible before heading off to college. So how are things guys?

I want to make this a fun thread. I was curious, this is a chance for everyone to post lyrics or a line from a song that inspires them or drives them in anyway possible. I know the song I am going to use, but it's late and I'm a tad too lazy to do it now, but I will very soon once I get another...

Ok I know some of you may laugh, but I am doing this as a plea for good sound quality from my computer and because I'm still young and broke, so I want to make sure this is safe to do before I continue doing this. Here is what I've done. I just received a pair of speakers for my birthday which I...

Ok, wasn't sure which section I should put this in, but it's more of a computer type question. I got an early Birthday present the other day, and I am completly surprised. I got a pair of Cerwin-Vega D-3's. They're 3-way with 10" woofer, 6" mid and about a 3-3 1/2 tweeter or something of the...

So, my Dad and I just had a little conversation about speakers, and of course he's determined that he wants to buy a pair of Bose. I could care less about the brand, but it's the fact that he thinks as I quote "they're bookshelf speakers, but they have a stereo sound". They might, but I told him...

EDIT: Changed price a little, as I say in post #8 Thanks for looking/attempting to help . I don't know if it's possible, but I need some closed, supraaural or circumaural is fine. They're going to be used at home, but I still need something closed and fairly comfortable. I've seen decent...

Ok, I have been going through the decision of whether or not I want to continue using Apple products or just go straight out Windows. As Vista has had updates, I have no problem with it now, and I am very pleased how quickly and well integrated WMP works with Vista. Here's my dilemna. I love...

I feel bad for making another thread, as I felt I thought I might want to upgrade my IEM's, but I've come to realize that I do more listening at home and will be doing a lot of just that this summer. Here is my question. I thought before I was going to be able to get about $300...guess not, so...
