    ATH-CKM77/CKM99 vs ATH-CKS70/CKS77BK

    Does anyone have any reviews on these earphones?   I am looking for some earphones that are easy to drive, nothing that requires too much power. For example, I am currently using Kipsch S2's. To me they require a lot of power. I mean when I use them on my phone and mp3 they have a limit but...

    Sony vs Dell notebooks?

    I am in the market for a 17in desktop replacement notebook. I compared the Sony and Dell versions and they use similar parts. In a audiophile sense, which one would be better? I am leaning toward Dell since I have been using my current Dell 1420 for awhile and it has never had any problems or...

    udac on its own?

    I just got my hands on a udac, my setup is dell 1420 --> udac --> d2000. So far so good, I am going to test it out with my grados when I get some time.   I plan to get an amp in the future but listening to it on its own is pretty good. What do you guys think, before I just used my headphones...

    For 325is owners...

    Does anyone prefer comfys over bowls? I guess I like comfys because I used 80is's which came with comfys. The reason why is that the 325is are A LOT heavier than the 80i's, many know this. Seems as the comfys do not put as much stress/pressure on the ears. My comfys have a coin sized hole in the...

    Went into the audio shop to buy some m50's but came out with 325i's..

    The only set of headphones I owned before were 80i's, I love them to death. However, I listen to a good amount of house genre and music with a good amount of bass. In short, I wanted to get a closed set of headphones to listen to with my house music and wanted to buy m50's. I listened to the...

    First off, I don't mean a portable amp in which I will be taking a long with me to where I go. I currently use LDIII and with the tubes its hard to take it along with me on my travels. I will be moving to Asia for awhile and decided to get a SS amp, I really want to get the Grado power amp...

    What amps do you use to drive your Grado SR225's?

    Do you use an amp? I am close to pulling the trigger on some Grado SR225's. I plan on driving them with my Ibasso T2 amp. I normally use my T2 with my SF5's and they drive the SF5's well. However, I've had my Sony MDR-CD160 headphone for awhile. I know these phones are not high end stuff...

    GOT DAMN... for SF5's owners!

    Ever since I received my SF5's I been astonished by the performance. However I have trouble picking which ear tip to use. I used all 3 sizes of the normal rubber tips and the flanged one too. They either too big or keep falling out of my ears when I eat or move my jaws (im sure some of you know...

    Thinking of either picking up some Grado 225's or 325i's..

    Which Grado is more on the same level with the SF5's. I know they are different but i'm just trying to compared. I'm leaning towards the 225i's.
