    Easy to replace iPod battery?

    I have a 3G iPod whose battery is dying. Is it easy to replace the battery. For example, if I buy a battery like this, would it be easy to install with the included tools? Are these OEM batteries good? Thanks.

    AKG K81DJ in the WILD. First Impressions Included. [56K Beware!]

    I received my K81's a couple days ago. I listened to them when they first arrived and I was pleasantly surprised. I'm definitly not a bass head. I expected loose bass like the PortaPro or Shure E2c but this was pretty decently controlled. I listened to some classical, pop, and rock and it was...

    Headphones with similar sound to the Senn HD201?

    I love the Senn HD201. What portable phones have similar sound? I just don't like the Senn HD201 looks and their not portable enough. They don't fold. Would the AKG K81 have sound like it? Or the AKG 27i? Any phones? Thanks.

    Size of the iM716?

    I'm so tempted to get these, but looking at pictures, the iM716 look massive! Like they would stick out like sticks or something! How big are these? Are they pretty well hidden when worn? How big are they when compared to the Etymotic ER6, etc. Thanks.

    Most accurate, closed, isolating headphones / earphones for $100?

    I'm definitly not a bass head. I've had the PortaPros, Shure E2c, and E3c and all have been bass heavy and all have been returned. I really love the sound of the Senn PX100 but they're way too open and non isolating. I need these for the train and plane. I want something portable and sturdy...

    Which Amp for Grado SR60?

    EDIT: Actually, on second thought. After reading some more posts, it doesn't seem like I need an amp for the SR60s. Oh well, money saved!

    Connecting Speakers to Laptop

    What's the best way of connecting 2.1 Speakers to a laptop? Should I buy an external sound card? How about one of those little USB sound card things? Or is it alright to just directly connect it to the laptop? Thanks.

    Alright. I'm finally ready to order and setup my first amp. I've decided on the Shell Brook Lab Maxi Moy. I"ll be purchasing the amp and an AC Adaptor.

    Chaintech AV-710 Master Volume Problem.

    I just installed the AV-710. And I've updated the drivers. But when going into the properties, the Master Volume slider does not work. Putting it at max will increase the right headphone, but the left side does not change. Decreasing both sides completely will shut the right completely, but the...

    General, Quick Questions on ER-6 and E3c.

    I couldn't decide which one to get so I got both. Anyways, I'll probably sell the one I don't like. But I have a few, general questions about these. For the ER-6: These things are in-ear phones, so the volume should be set lower than normal, correct? But I actually have to set the volume...

    Fit and Sound of the E3 compared to E2?

    I hated the E2. The phones were too big ... not the foamies ... but the other parts of the earphones. And I didn't like the sound. It was way too flat and muddled: very muddy and just not detailed and sharp. I love the sound of the MX500s. The MX500s are not bass heavy, produce detailed and...
