    MMCX Earbud Recommendations for Bluetooth cable? (Not IEMS)

    Maybe this is a dumb question, but I've been wanting wireless earbuds for a long time, but every time I look for some they seem to be IEMs only. However recently I found out about bluetooth mmcx connector cables and earbuds that support this option, however I'm seeing some info which says some...

    Old Record Players Technics SL-1300 and SL-5200

    I have these 2 old record players from some older friends. They were stored in a garage and weren't selling at garage sales. I cleaned them off, and though the dust covers have some scratches and there's some minor rust on the medal outside the dust cover, aside from the bodies. On the SL-5200...

    Which Full Sized Open Headphone?

    I've been researching the best headphone and amplifier to get for the past few weeks now, and was set on the Senn HD 595's, after deciding it would be better to get them than the 555's. I then began looking at portable amplifiers to use with my ipod touch 2g, through a line out of course, and I...

    Replacing broken Yuin OK3's, earbuds or something else?

    Okay, so today the right earbud on my OK3's went, well actually the cable went down by the plug, but the right earbud goes in and out a lot. I luckily have Yuin G2A's to use as back-ups, but really I don't view them as a good permanent solution as They flap in the wind, meaning they sound like...

    Headphones dying?

    okay, as I am sure many of you have experienced, headphones or the jacks for them tend to die. my yuin ok3's seem to be doing this as they keep dying on and off in one ear in both my laptop and my ipod, whereas my old sennheisers play just fine moving around full 360 degrees in my ipod. So is it...

    Pod Touch 2G vs Cowon D2 vs Samsung P2 vs Trekstor Vibez

    Looking purely at the sound quality of the players which one would you personally choose? do any of them to you lack in general sound quality? or are they all great players and just have different sound signatures?

    iTouch 2G vs Cowon D2/S9 vs Trekstor Viebz vs Samsung P2/P3

    Okay. looking at the title you might be a little confused as to what I am trying to do in looking for comparisons on these players, but I really couldn't think of a better title. What I am hoping to do is get some comparisons/speculations on the sound quality of the iTouch 2g, the cowon s9, the...

    Looking for a cheap Amp

    Okay, I am sorry if this is a bit off topic from the general topics here. Anyway my father is looking for an amp, all I know is that it needs to be cheap, he says they can be had for around $40-$50 and output like 40 or 50W I think but it needs to output 12-70 amps, prefferably on the higher...

    Yuin OK3's just a quick question or two

    Okay, well I just got my yuin ok3's from head-direct today and they are great. At first I was wondering, but after a few songs I realized that they are in fact as good as I expected and basically are just like pk3's that can be turned into supposedly no so great iem's (though I am sure there are...

    Cheap place to get 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter?

    I was wondering if anyone knows a good place to buy an adapter to plug a 3.5mm set of headphones into a 2.5mm jack. Also I am just curious, but does the decrease in size mean a decrease in audio quality as well? I am asking because I intend to use my cell phone (lg voyager) as a backup music...

    Gemini HP15 Headphones?

    I was wondering if anyone could help me identify these headphones on any quality scale, I can't find them anywhere and I don't think the brand they were made by was even a large company, so I imagine they are poor quality, but I have no way of being sure. The brand gemini is a company form the...

    Alternatives to the iPod

    I got a 2G ipod nano about a year and a half ago and my tiny music collection has grown to a point where I think it is going to outgrow the nano soon and on top of that I am considering storing as much of my music as possible in a lossless format. Now I know all of the advantages of other player...

    Sennheiser MX Series

    Okay, my Yuin PK3's recently broke, sort of, all the bass is gone in the right earbud so I had to give up on it. However I got so used to the j cord that my pk3's had and now am having trouble with the sony 828's that I used as temp replacements until I can get one of the new Yuin OK3's. Anyway...

    Recabling Headphones

    Okay, I would like to just explain first off that I am not an audiophile, I have no soldering experience, and I don't know where to begin with recabling headphones. While I do understand that it is unorthodox to recable cheaper headphones, or in my case earbuds, the Yuin PK3 headphones I bought...

    Annoying Noise in Case audio jack

    Ever since I built my computer from scratch a while ago I have had issues with there being strange noises in the audio jack of my computer case, though the jack straight from the mobo does not seem to have this issue. If I drag things or move my mouse I get different sounds that are clearly...

    Audio Quality Flac/OGG/MP3/etc.

    Accidentally in the music thread, meant to be in the general thread, if a mod could move it that would be great, unless it is alright here. Sorry. Now on to business, I am not a major audiophile or anything, but I do like high quality in just about everything including music. Recently I began...

    I am wondering if anyone knows of an headphones that are in the same earbud style and of similar quality to the pk3's that cost less than $49, my pk3's are only about 5 months old but they are nearing death as the copper wire that they initially exposed a few months into use has once again...
