    Triple-fi 10, vi wire, and ipod touch

    Just got myself a 3G 64GB Ipod touch and I'm using it with the standard triple-fi's. All is well, except for one issue; the ability to move to another song without having to turn the screen on. Volume up and down is no problem because of the side buttons, but skipping tracks is a hassle. Heard...

    earphone solution iem deals!!

    Forgive me if this has already been posted. I did a quick scan on the forum and couldn't see any reference. Earphone solutions are doing a holiday savings, so anyone in the market for a pair of sennheiser, shure, klipsch, UE, and westone's can save a little bit of money. Earphone...

    UE superfi 5 pro's terrible quality

    My ears were getting irritated by the standard over the ear's phone fit, so I wanted to do the reverse and have them just hang, so I pulled the first phone out of the wire and that came out fine. The second one was snug and I can't believe this, but it pulled out the connection and the two wires...

    triple fi's overkill for my purpose?

    Basically, I've got maximum portability on my mind, so I'm using a pair of Yuin PK1's with a 5.5 Gen Ipod / Microshar lineout connected to an ibasso T2 mini amp. I knew the limitations of the Pk1's were lack of isolation when I purchased them, but they are really a great sounding earbud, so I...

    Bti 2 battery extender for IPOD

    I own a 5.5 Gen 30GB IPOD with one of the BTI Battery II power suppliers ( notice how I don't say chargers). I'm getting mixed info around the forums and web regarding that this battery charger is capable of charging the IPOD. Mine doesn't, so I'm wondering if anyone that has ones of these; does...

    Just got my Yuin PK1's

    Decided to take the plunge on the PK1's and I'm really, really impressed. Didn't do any burn in; just wanted to hear what they had to offer right out of the wooden box. In a word amazing. I kept cupping my ears to feel if maybe some full size headphone's had jumped on to my head. I'm pink...

    ibuds no, canal phones yes

    Sorry if this story has been posted already, but sounds like this article is warning about the dangers of buds over canal or pretty much any other phone when it comes to going deaf from music. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1770 Anyone agree with this or am I missing...

    What's the worst thing you've seen someone do in public?

    I'm just wondering what's the worst thing you've seen someone do to their equipment in public? I was at the gym watching someone do some stomach situps on a bench, Ipod buds in while working out. After about 15 situps, the IPOD ( looked like 4th Gen ) falls out of her sweat pocket and makes a...

    Kind of big headphones!

    And I thought I stood out wearing my Grado's in public. http://www.smh.com.au/ftimages/2006/...083895095.html

    $44,000 MP3 player. You've got to be kidding!

    Help me out here, but what purpose does this serve other than showing you've got more money than sense. Anyone that buys one of these deserves to get mugged! Technologically, it even sucks as well. All in all, a pointless exercise in excess and that's about the only good thing I have to say...

    .85 inch drive holding 40 TB's. Yikes!

    http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000613045368 Anyone getting even close to 10 million songs in their collection yet? It's all theoretical, but a damn interesting one at that.

    equivalency of Eupod for non-apple players?

    I own apple products, but also own other players as well. I really like the way Eupod integrates mp3 gain into the program and then boosts the volume without distortion. Can anyone tell me if there is anything similar to Eupod Pro for non-apple players that can normalize, then boost the volume...

    Creative Zen neeon. What are they smoking over at creative?

    Allofmp3 found not worthy of criminal pursuit

    http://moskalyuk.com/blog/allofmp3co...it-for-now/475 Sorry if this has already been linked, but it's worthy of noting, based on this, how music piracy has less of a priority elsewhere and is more of a priority in the corporate controlled western world. The fact that the Moscow police have...

    improving IPOD battery life Any merit in this?

    http://www.lifehacker.com/software/e...ry-life-034930 Just trying to figure out the how's and why's on how this could improve battery life. Would there be any truth to this or does this have steaming pile of you know what written all over it! I know firmware revisions can improve all...

    Wireless headphones for Zen micro!

    Sorry if this has already been posted and possibly apologies again if it should have been posted in the headphone section. Just thought it deals with portable players in general. Anyway my point is wireless headphones for the Zen micro with quality sound for a portable player seems a good idea...

    Just an observation with a question!

    I've been contemplating a situation and don't really have a convincing answer yet. I've been using various headphones ( Senn PX-200, Sony V6's, KSC-35's, etc. and a pair of Senn PX-100's ) with various portable players ( Karma, Zen nx, 2nd Gen IPOD, Ipod mini ) with my recent purchase being the...

    Would anyone admit to buying this?

    Okay, I know it's for charity and custom IPOD's seem to be the rage right now, but I just don't know if I could deal with the humiliation of carrying around a David Hasslehoff IPOD. Thank God the only sign that it's a David Hasslehoff IPOD is his signature and his crappy Christmas music which is...

    Polaroid Juke Jam

    http://reviews.cnet.com/Polaroid_Juk...?tag=cnetfd.sd Are companies just throwing out flawed MP3 players just to get a piece of the market without really offering anything to the consumer. I mean, the IPOD and Zen, to name just two, have been out a while and we all know there are positives...

    IPOD as icon

    http://www.skynews.co.uk/skynews/art...989168,00.html A big thumbs up to the Brit for being the creator of the IPOD and for him being the most influential cultural figure of 2004 in the U.K. (whether it's true or not, it's a pretty nice title to have) I was starting to buy into the article...

    Sony's KSC-55's

    http://reviews.cnet.com/4505-6468_7-...?tag=cnetfd.sd "The track's low electronic-bass line could've been more pronounced, but that's not a huge knock since most portable 'phones don't deliver powerful bass." It's ike a pair of Koss KSC-55's without the bass but with double the price...

    Completely confused about MP3 Player output?

    This could have been answered so please don't shoot me, but I'm trying to understand if MP3 CD players like the Iriver IMP-550 are underpowered in the sound department compared to the harddrive MP3 players like the Zen with it's 100mw and Signal to noise ratio of 98DB and the IPOD's 60mw. I mean...

    Creating menus in Ipod or Zen?

    Hi, I wonder if someone can give me some advice on what can and can't be done with the zen or ipod for creating individual music folders. I've searched various forums, but to be honest I'm still not clear on what is possible with either the zen or the ipod when transferring music and I'm...
