    Cowon J3 and Podcasts

    Is anyone using the J3 for podcasts? Does the Jet software sync podcasts? Or do you use other software for that purpose?   Thanks.

    Can someone please compare Cyclone PR1 Pro and Yuin G2A?

    I need something portable and was planning to get the Cyclones. Now they seem to be unavailable. I don't know whether to wait or go for the Yuins. I know they are a totally different form factor. I am only interested in how the sound signature compares. Thanks.

    Good cans....lousy recordings...what to do?

    I listen largely to classical and jazz. Most of my classical collection is relatively hi-fi. But much of my jazz is vintage recordings, like live mono sessions from the 30's or 40's. For these recordings, my MS1's are lousy. My KSC-75's and Portapros are better. However, I am not the kind of...

    Alessandro ms1 and brass

    I have been using these headphones for about a week now, my first serious phones. I maybe have 25 hours in them. Overall, I really like them, very clean, clear, balanced sound. And, since I was pre-warned that there would be NO soundstage, I am pleased to find that this isn't true across the...

    Trying hard to understand what is worth the $$

    I have a modest Zune 30. I listen primarily to jazz and classical. A lot of my jazz is vintage live recordings - not hi-fi (though some of it is). On the other hand, a lot of the classical is high end. I don't want an amp. I currently have porta-pros, ksc75, and brand new px100's. I'm...

    Place to listen to phones in Los Angeles?

    Does anyone know of any venues in L.A. (before CanJam 2009) to listen to a good selection of phones? Thanks!

    Best soundstage and definition for -$100

    I don't care if they are buds, IEMS, or cans. I listen to Classical and Jazz and soundstage is very important to me. I would also like some decent definition, no harsh treble, and no booming bass. Too much to ask?

    Looking for inexpensive noise isolating phones

    My family is going on a trip, and my daughter will have her ipod plugged in much of the time. Hubby and I will want to listen to the music on the car system. Are there some inexpensive phones that will protect us from her music, and allow us to listen without bothering her? Quality is not a...

    Kramer Mod ksc75

    I am having trouble finding the actual instructions for the mod. It could be because it seems that this mod is mentioned in the forum several times a day. I couldn't find it within the search results. Can anyone give me a more specific keyword to search? Also, is there anyone who actually...

    Any way to play straight through a genre on Zune?

    I know that I can shuffle through a genre, and if I turn the shuffle off, it will play through alphabetically. It also plays through alphabetically if I add all of a genre to a quicklist. But can I play straight through ALL the albums in a genre, album after album? It doesn't seem so. Thanks.

    Portapro/Ksc35 vs. Ksc75

    My Ksc75's are starting to come apart and will have to be replaced. I noticed that, on this site, A LOT of people have Ksc75's listed within their signature. But in the discussion threads it seems that the 35's receive more glory. What is the difference in the sound between them? Also, am...

    Any DAPS that can display extended metadata?

    When I tag my jazz tunes, I include extensive info in the comments field of the tag with regard to the musicians. With classical music it might be conductor, soloist, etc. Are there any DAPS that allow viewing of such data on the device? Thanks.

    Question about the Zune equalizer

    I have had the Zune for a couple of days, and I'm very happy. But I'm a bit disappointed in the equalizer. I knew going in that it was only presets, but the differences between the presets seem very minor. I suppose I can hear the biggest difference when switching from "none" to "acoustic", and...

    iRiver H10 for Jazz listening?

    I just found this forum and have been browsing for SQ information. I listen primarily to Jazz. I had pretty much decided to go for an ebay Rio Karma due to the frequent descriptions here of a warm and rich sound. However, I just noticed that TigerDirect has refurbed H10s for $99. Would the...
