ok thanks for the reply! you just saved me alotta money!

so will a soundcard help improve the quality of the audio i render on my pc? or is that purely done by CPU and doesn't go through the soundcard? i make music on my pc using programs and just wondered if a soundcard would help improve the quality of the music i encode. thanks!

how is the soundblaster live external? any others you would reccomend for more balanced/accurate and more power to drive my headphones? not too expensive. if im asking too much, any upgrade from onboard sound would be great. looking for 100 or less USA dollars. thanks!

they use the standard size for laptops and other devices which 1/8" i think. and the plug is actually lighter and smaller than the v700. im listening again to see if it happens. this is so odd..im practically abusing the cord and the jack and there is no problem whatsoever. but when im not even...

by headphone jack do you mean on the headphones or on the laptop? and i dont really know if its the jack because on the 3rd trial i barely touched the cord about 1/2 down where its coiled and the problem went away instantly. i didnt even touch the headphone jack this time....but then the 1st...

i used to use sony mdr v700 with this laptop for 4 months and never had that problem. i dont want to try on another device yet because it only happened for the first time today and happened hours apart. i don't have the time to use another source because i dont have anything i could use for...

Hello, I just got my Audio Technica M50 (ath-m50) last wednesday and LOVE THEM. However, something very strange happened today, and I don't know if it's my Laptop or if its my headphones... I need an experts advice. Generally, I heard Audio Technica make previous models fairly fragile, but read...

i checked and it felt like more bass was pumping thru the right channel when felt thru my hand on the ear cup. but i checked with 3 different headphones with many different songs. its not that bad but im really picky. I have the ATH-M50 as my primary phone and MDR V700DJ and some other sony...

Ok, I have noticed that in 2 sets of headphones it seems most bass comes from the right channel. also, things just seem clearer in my left ear. how do i fix this? if its my ears am i out of luck?

anybody?

review from: Buy Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Studio Monitor Headphones online at Musician's Friend "I've read a lot of good things about the Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones. They are supposedly very accurate throughout the frequency spectrum with "no little white lies" according to their...

Anybody have any inputs on these 'phones? i'm not looking for fun/colored sound per se, but just some accurate 'phones for portable music composing on my laptop when I'm on the train, ect.. thanks MAJOR EDIT: I mean RP-21 not RS-1, sorry. the latter is much too expensive, lol. these are what...

the m50 are about 100 US dollars more. are they that much better than the m40? if anything..i read that the M40FS goes down to 5hz while the m50 was at 15hz? any ideas? thank you. p.s. i am looking for which is most accurate/flat/true sounding.

true...but as that one poster said... i dont want underrespresenated bass.. i just want..true bass. What i put in, I get out...no coloration... hmm..

ok, i also use other over the ear headphones as well..so i prob wont need to worry about changing the filters too often..thats fine.. but now the bass issue concerns me.. hmm..i will be producing music which requires somewhat heavy bass (hip hop, possibly trance, techno), BUT, wouldn't the...

Hi all, I'm going to purchase these ear phones primarily due to recomendations by members on this board, reviews, and the fact that their frequency response is very accurate compared to full sized cans in the price range... i will be using these as additional tools to speakers, as mixing...

yes, you're right. the m40fs has 60 ohm impedance, while the m50 has only 38 ohm impedance... but.. the m40fs have 5hz-28khz response, have "flat response" in the description, but the m50 only have 15hz-28khz response, and doesnt have "flat response" in the description... damnit..why are...

well i guess the m50 is out of my league... i cant afford an amp+phones... would the m40fs suffice without an amp?

How are these headphones for the price range? do they require an amp? are they comfortable? are they relatively flat in frequency response? i was wondering how well these would serve as a headphone to make rough music mixes with on my computer... thanks

hmm thanks.. Any body else have some experience with these two phones? (i would test them out in store, but my Guitar center doesnt have akg240s)

Products - HeadRoom - Right Between Your Ears SR60: freq response 20hz-20khz 32 ohm impedence K240S: 15hz- 25khz 55ohm impedence I am looking for near neutral response cans for music production (all done on PC, no live instruments) for on the go..(i.e. portable, NO MONITORS) Also, i...

so would the k240s be the best in its price range for my uses? any more inputs? thanks!

thanks. any other advice?

I will be using them for some here and there music making on my PC with Cubase (using VSTi, ect.. NO LIVE INSTRUMENTS). I came close to buying these..but backed out for some reasons.. Beyer DT 770 PRO-80 Ohm: backed out due to reading I need an AMP to get the best of them.. cant afford...
