Sorry if this is old news but I only dicovered it yesterday and thought it might be of interest to some people here, this being a headphone-site and all Current versions of ffdShow (a video and audio decoder filter for Windows-based media-players) now include a headphone virtual...

Hi, looking for a place to get eartips from I stumbled over www.pjbox.co.uk In the accessories section (http://www.pjbox.co.uk/Shure-Accessories.htm) for Shure earphones they list some eartips that seem to be not original Shure accessories (bottom of the page). Among those are so called...

Hi About a month ago I ordered the Chiarra and Andante (PSU) kits. Pinkfloyd and others here had so many positive things to say about that amp that I simply couldn't resist. Well, the package arrived on Monday and over the week I assembled it, taking about 12 hours. Most of the stuff is...

Ok, I was just checking out the above mentioned CD as an EAC-Rip, APE-compressed and heard some distortions on the right channel in the song "Mary's in India". It's very noticable at the position 1.57 when she sings "and as the sun rised" for example. My question now is whether that's normal...

I was wondering whether anybody here has ever tried the Pioneer for gaming with the PC. The idea woould be to get the multichannel 3D-sound to the Pioneer via optical (preferably) and thus process it to Dolby Headphone. Would it actually work the way despribed above? And if so, how good are...

Hi I'm currently thinking about upgrading my notebook-sound to something decent. The Echo Indigo seems to be a good choice. What I would like to know now is whether anybody has tried it with Etys and what quality I can expect. Just asking 'cause the Etys are so sensitive that I can hear...

Hi folks I have a Meta that I want to drive with a power supply to save on batteries. Unfortunately the regulated PS (13.8V) I had lying around introduced a hiss I could pick up with my Etys (Porta Pros don't care ) that wasn't there when battery powered. Trying a trick mentioned by...

Hi once again I am very happy to report that today my Etys finally arrived and have taken their place in my ears. All those of you who have ever read a thread by a new Ety-owner can as well stop reading now as my experiences with them are so very much like those of many others. Felt almost...

Hi I keep reading here about the benefits of 24/96 audio resolution. I guess SACD and maybe also DVD-A support this but I've never read about a software-player for these formats. Found that a little strange as good sound-card also offer this kind of playback-resolution. Long story short...

OK, here goes my second post in this excellent forum: As I'm planning to get a pair of Etymotic ER4P I thought I might as well also upgrade my source. My Home PC only has an old SB Live and in recent listening-tests I found the sound kinda muffled compared to what my notebook (Fujitsu-Siemens...

OK guys, you really made me do it... After LOTS of reading of this strangely addictive forum I decided to get me a pair of them ER4P. Quite a step up from my Koss PortaPros I hope. Well, financially it sure as hell is. For starters I guess they'll be fine without an amp. One problem is that...
