I am selling my basically brand new 10GB iPod on ebay and I am wondering whether you guys think that I should wait till the 4th gen iPods come out. I am tired of the crappy battery and by the time they are released (hopefully at MWSF in January, which is what it seems like) get a hopefully newly...

without losing any quality? If I decide to get another MP3 player other than the iPod that does not support AAC, I would like to be able to use the songs that I have bought off that store. Thanks for your help!!!

I am taking apart the dock and putting the lineout in a custom enclosure to just hook into the bottom of the iPod. I have successfully taken out the port itself and all of the circutry and the dock connector, but i need an idea on what to enclose it in? I need it to be fairly small so i can just...

I just saw and held the Karma 20 at the Circuit City by my house, and it was MUCH smaller than the one in the pictures posted here. It was slightly larger than my 10GB 3G iPod. I thought it was cool, but iPod is better Neat idea, and it is not that big, but still kinda wide...

I found this in my dad's room the other day, is it a good player or not. The problem with it lies in the headphone out port. I need to push the headphone plug in and hold it to get sound in both ears, any way to fix that? My real question is if its any good, or should i just give it back to him?

I want to get a cd player to listen to at home to get full quality, instead of using the iPod all the time, I can tell the differences in sound. I have seen countless threads on the 1992 classics, which is what i am looking for, they seem to be cheaper, and have better sound quality. Can anyone...

I just returned my 280s and got the 7506's from my local guitar center on reccomendation that they are better than the 280s by far, which i do agree. I have heard people talk about these beyer pads, what are they?, how much do they cost?, and where is the best place to get them for the best...

Well guys...you led me to my purchase of my 280's and now i need something for portable use. I keep my 280's at my house, and I want a portable headphone with more base than the MX400's, but not too much base. I was thinking about the KSC-35, but I dont want to spend 30 bucks! any cheaper place...

I am using my iPod 3G and using 192 lame files and i have to turn up the volume close to the top just to get respectable volume on the 280s. This really eats up my battery pretty quickly, and I use the backlight. Is their something i need to get for iTunes to make them louder, or what? any help...

You guys helped me so well that I need ur help again. I just bought my 280 pros and I LOVE them and I can now notice a serious sound difference between my iPod and my dad's cd player. I was gonna up the bit rate on the iPod, buy I would rather keep it low and use my MX400s. I wanted to know...

Hi, i need some help from all of you guys. Iwant to get some nice headphones and so far I have been unsuccesful. I have the senn mx400 and I think they sound great, really great. I bought the EX71sl and I HATED THEM, they sounded muddy and screechy. I then bought the portapros, I thought they...

I really want to try these out cause of all the good rep it has gotton on this board. i have checked at soundtrack, best buy, circuit city, radioshack, where the bloody hell are these damn things. I cant find anywhere online and I am this close to giving up. Can anyone help me out? I heard they...

I just bought these today, and I wanted to know what the best method for burning them in, and exactly how do I do it? I have a 3G iPod by the way. Any help would be really appreciated!!!

HI, I am new to the boards so be kind if i ask a question that has been asked before. One of my fav bands Nickelback is coming to my hometown in the next couple months and i AM going to see them and I was wondering if i bought one of the iRiver iFP series players I could record the concert in...
