Karaokeequipment.com?
Somebody linked me to the D7000 page of their website, where it's being sold for $580. I am almost positive they aren't authorized resellers, but does anybody know if they're legit, as in are these headphones real or are they fakes? Denon AH-D7000 Around-Ear Stereo Headphones AHD7000...- Necrolic

IEMs Under $150?
So after finally getting fed up with walking around with my D1001Ks on my head, I've decided to pick up a pair of IEMs so I can stick them and my iPod in my pocket rather than trying to squeeze the iPod and portable cans in my backpack. Budget is $150+shipping at most. I listen to pretty much...- Necrolic

What Format is Your Music?
I was just reading around today and out of nowhere I became curious as to what format everyone listens to their music in, whether it be 320Kbps MP3s, low quality MP3s, FLAC, CD, SACD, Vinyl, or some other format. My entire music collection is in 320Kbps MP3s purchased from millisong.com. I... -
ZXAC Cables
Anybody here have experience with them that can comment on the quality of their cables? Specifically in comparison to the stock D5000/D7000 cable, as I am thinking about having them recable a pair of D7000s before sending them in to make them LA7000 Lites. What's the quality of their work...- Necrolic

Where to Audition Headphones in Maine?
I'm currently on vacation at Sugarloaf in Maine, and I am going to take a break from skiing for a day with my family to go out shopping. Is there anywhere in Maine that I can go to audition headphones, or am I pretty much screwed as far as that goes? And by anywhere in Maine I do mean anywhere.- Necrolic

Tube Amp Maintenance?

Best Rock Headphones *High Budget*
*sigh* Well, I thought I was settled on the T1s, but for my taste in music it seems that everyone is torn. Some say it's perfect, some say it isn't dynamic or fun enough for rock music (which, as you probably gathered, is just about all I listen to). Outside of rock (any and all types), I listen...- Necrolic

Audio-GD C2 with T1s?
So I'm about to order a pair of T1s, and I don't really have the money to drop on a tube amp right now. I was wondering how the Audio-GD C2 will drive the T1s? I know it will definitely get them to audible levels, I just don't know accuracy-wise how it'll handle the drivers. Will it be a HUGE...- Necrolic

Sub-$500 Tube Amp for T1?
Considering getting a pair of T1s, and because of this I'm just doing some research ahead of time to prepare. Now while I understand that my C2 will more than likely power them quite well, that a tube amplifier well get the job done a fair bit better. What would be my best option for a tube...- Necrolic

LA7000 Lite vs. T1
Going to be selling my D5000s to fund a headphone upgrade, and torn as to what I'll be getting. I listen to pretty much only any and all (and I do mean all) types of rock/metal, electronic, and some hip-hop music, as well as some acoustic and vocals. I value an engaging, fun sound, but detail is...- Necrolic

Flexibility of Moon Audio Cables?
I'm torn between Moon Audio Silver Dragon and APS v3 for my headphones and it looks like it's going to come down to being a decision based off of flexibility as from what I understand they are very similar in sound, and I like them both aesthetically. I understand the Super Nylon APS cable is...- Necrolic

I was wondering what everyone here thinks is the best pair of headphones for rock under $1500 (to exclude all of the ridiculously rare high end cans like R10, L3000, etc.). Closed, open, anything goes. List your top 3! For me, from what I've actually heard in that price range, my top 3...- Necrolic

Recable Question
So I'm going to be having my D5000s recabled soon by APS and I was wondering, I know that to reduce strain the D5000 cable is tied in a knot inside the ear cups, and this made me wonder, how do other headphones keep the cables from pulling straight out of the headphone if you were to...- Necrolic

Best Sub-$700 DAC?
Well, I know I said I was settled on the Audio-GD DAC19/C2 combo, but I'm gonna be able to up the budget to $1400, so $700 for amp and $700 for DAC, although I would be willing to go up to $800 if it's really worth it. I already made a post in the amp forum, but I want to ask here about DACs...- Necrolic

Sub-$700 Amp?
More questions, yet again. What would be the best SS amp sub-$700 (would be willing to go up to $800 if it's really worth it)? For now it'll be driving my D5000s, but in the future I will most likely be picking up a more neutral, high impedance headphone as well (not sure what as of yet)...- Necrolic

DACMagic vs. Audio-GD DAC19 DSP1
I'm debating between these two DACs for the upgrades I'm planning in the near future. The DACMagic is ~$250 cheaper than the DSP1 version of the DAC19, but I've heard it performs much better than it's price would suggest (although I've heard the same in regards to the DAC19). I'm wondering...- Necrolic

Amp & DAC Under $1200
Alright, well originally some of you may remember I planned to spend $1700 on a new amp/DAC, but I've decided to cut that budget down. I would prefer to spend no more than $1000 now, but am willing to go up to $1200. Whatever I get I will be using them with my LA5000 Lites, and in the future...- Necrolic

Active Speakers to Pair with D5000?
Looking for a pair of speakers for under $350 to complement my D5000s. Now when I say complement, I want the sound to still be fun to listen to and musical, but preferably with a quite different sound signature. Would the KRK RP-5 fit the bill, or do they have a fairly boring signature? I ask...- Necrolic

Powered Monitors
Still having trouble deciding what stereo monitors to get to complement my rig. The highest I can pay is something along the lines of the KRK RP5 or Mackie MR5, maybe $50 more per speaker. I'm looking for something with a fun, musical sound that is still crisp and at least fairly accurate.- Necrolic
