I'm looking to get a pair of wireless over-ear headphones and really considering the B&W Px8. As much as I enjoyed my Meze 99 Classics, I rarely use them these days and am probably going to sell them. I know it's a strange comparison (or not these days??) since it's wireless vs wired and...

What are some warm, laid back, non-fatiguing, super comfortable portable closed headphones that I should consider? Also would like there to be minimum sound leakage. Considering: - Oppo PM-3 - ‎B&O H6 2nd gen - ‎Meze 99 classics Anything else?

Barely seeing any portable headphone discussions these days. I for one am thinking of taking an extended break from IEMs because I no longer find them comfortable. From the not-too-intrusive types to universals to CIEMs...I think I've had enough of sticking things inside my ears. What's the...

AKG seem to have some pretty analytical cans.  I even find my K712's pretty analytical sounding.    What type of amps did most of you AKG owners end up with on your journey for the most ideal synergy - from budget to baller?

I just got my K712s and so far I have been very impressed with their SQ, especially the soundstage and imaging, coming out of my Centrance DACport.   I'm considering an amp that would make them sound even less analytical then they currently are.  Don't get me wrong, I don't consider them to be...

Hi guys,   Looking for open-back headphones.  These are my priorities: -Music: Into a a pretty wide range which includes Radiohead, Joy Division, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, At the Drive-In, M83, Philip Glass, Hans Zimmer, Clint Mansell, Godspeed, etc. -Comfort: I'd like to be able to use these...

Anybody else anxiously awaiting the release of the "potential" Nexus 10 2nd generation?  It's been a pretty painful ride so far with no shred of legitimate information thanks to Google being uber-secretive.   Anyhow, I'm really hoping it'll come with a way above average clean, noise-free sound...

What seems to be happening is once the song playing has 2 seconds left to go it cuts off early and skips to the track after the one that is supposed to be next. I had one album in 320kbps and it doesn’t have this issue.  Every consecutive song is played.   I used dbpoweramp to convert my...

Sure sounds like it.   Source: http://centrance.com/blog/2011/11/01/tokyo-headphone-fest-2/   Quote: "On a technical note, I’ve purchased this power adapter from Eneloop, which is a Sanyo company. This little white box is basically a Li-ion battery with a USB output. It’s a great...

i'm curious if there are any former iPod haters who ended up getting an iTouch due it being so damn irresistible and now have absolutely no regrets doing so? the reason i ask is because i just got a Go-Vibe Petite amp and realized that my sony vaio pocket's line-out indeed sounds superior to...

what would be a good amp match for the A818? i've been considering the D2-Viper and the govibe petite.

i am currently really enjoying my ultraportable rig which consists of a sony NWZ-A818 which has no line-out (i use flat EQ and +2 on "clear bass" for a fairly clean sound...SQ is superb btw) and my beloved IEMs, the westone ES2's. i am now considering getting an amp if it's truly worth adding...

so i recently returned my Zune 80 for the Sony A818.. pretty big change i know but i didn't like the build qualiy (although it is better than most other DAPs), it's size, and realized i didn't need that much space on the go.. my old sony vaio pocket 40gb still comes in handy for those long trips...

just recently got a zune 80 and 3 days later i realized that i don't need two of its key features: -wifi: it seems to just waste my battery and doesn't work all that well every time i tried -touch: this may come as a shock to most but i just recently realized that the "touch" feature isn't...

what do you think are mandatory albums to own for fans of ***WARNING: EXTREMELY BIASED STATEMENT COMING UP*** the greatest band in the world.. not including Radiohead's own albums or solo projects.. cause uh that's just obvious. for those who aren't too big on Radiohead here are some of their...

ok, here's the deal. i hate this forum... and absolutely love it at the same time. i think everyone knows why for both reasons. so now on to perhaps spending even more ridiculous amounts money... my 2003 Acura CL's Bose speakers are blown (probably not all of them, but that doesn't matter...

what would you guys recommend for a good player to run with? right now i have my heart set on the Sony NW-S205F: -sports features such as pedometer, calorie counter, and stopwatch -supposedly really good sound quality -excellent slick design -"1-Line Organic Electroluminescence Display"...

anyone workout and/or run with IEMs/custom IEMs? i'm planning on getting a small player for working out and running, but not sure if it's a good idea to use my beloved westone ES2's... i usually go running late at night around my neighborhood when there are hardly any cars driving around and...

hey guys, haven't posted here in a while, but i was wondering if i can get some advice. i've been loving my um2's for quite some time now. i use biflange tips, which are modded triflange tips (cut the stem and the smallest flange). the only problem is that i have to take them out of my ear...

i've been planning on getting my gf an mp3 player for a while now and thought to myself that an ipod would be ideal for her. 1) she's a girl and will find it cute 2) it's pretty easy to use compared to many other mp3 players 3) the click wheel is still the number way to quickly find your songs...

[hope some of you vaio pocket owners are still around otherwise i don't think my question is ever going to be answered.....] i just recently added most of my mp3 library on the player, which had only a few albums on it before. the reason it took me so long is because i had to commit a decent...

so i was at my friend's party the other night and he had a bunch of nonsense queued up on his computer. i decided to check if he has anything "good," and to my surprise i found Jim Hendrix's Star Spangled Banner (the only Hendrix he had) which i immiediately double clicked on. it's such a Great...

so i had this song stuck in my head for about a month now. i was positive it was an 80's song so i decided on searching the net and asking my friends, but the only thing that i knew about the song was that there was a count down "4, 3, 2, 1" ... nobody knew and google was of no help. so finally...

i was wondering if there are any Viao pocket owners who regret not dishing out the extra doh for the X5/X5L. i doubt anyone does, but i'm just curious because ...and i know this might seem dumb/funny... i had a dream that i bought the sony viao pocket and was very happy. all things aside...
