    Beyerdynamic DT 250 vs Beyerdynamic DT 770 vs Sennheiser HD 380 Pro

    They're all in the same price range. I normally use my grado 225s for home listening but I need closed cans for when I'm not at home. I listen to music like porcupine tree, the mars volta, etc. which is quite difficult because it gets quite heavy/aggressive at times but there are also these...

    Trying to switch from MP3 Audio to CD Audio

    I used to purchase music using itunes and then I'd listen to it on my computer through a total bithead and my grado 225s when I'm at home, but I'd use an Ipod and a pair of Beyerdynamic 250 headphones when I'm outside, which constitutes for most of my music listening time. I have listened to...

    When does the Micro Amp sale end?

    I was going to buy it today but I just realised I have to wait till tomorrow to get the neccesary money. Am I screwed?

    Does the Micro DAC come with it's USB cable?

    I know very little about cabling, and my English isn't particularly great so I can't really get my point across very well, but I'm buying the Headroom Micro DAC and I'm wondering if I need to buy any extra cables for it. I'm also buying the Micro Amplifier, and I know i'll need a 1/8th to 1/8th...

    For Grado SR-225, is the price jump between getting a Total Bithead and a Headroom Micro DAC/Amp justified?

    I've only just bought a pair of Grado 225s and they're my first proper headphones. They sound much better than anything I've ever heard, but I know I can do even better by getting a DAC and an amplifier. I'm very close to buying the Total Bithead, because I use my computer as a source but I...

    Budget laptop audiophile question.

    I have Grado 225 headphones and I play them off my Dell's soundcard. It sounds good, but not amazing. I have about 200$ to spend on improving the sound of my headphones. I have absolutely no idea what would be better for me. Should I buy a headphone amp? A better external usb soundcard? I could...

    Could be a dumb question, but can I use my grado 225 with a guitar amplifier?

    I have the Grado 225s and while they sound really good from my laptop (And I mean that in a relative sense since these are my first headphones that cost more than 10$), I feel like they could sound truely epic with a guitar amp. I'm getting a Roland Microcube ampflier in a few days and I want to...

    Looking for Grado 225s, living in the uk

    For some absurd reason, Grados cost twice as much in europe as they do in the US. I've been wanting to buy Grado 225s for a long time, and I saw this deal on ebay that would ship to the uk but it got taken off the day I got my credit card. Can someone help me out? I'm not looking to spend...

    I listen to music like Porcupine Tree and the Mars Volta

    as well as Post-Rock, Radiohead, heavy metal, and occasionally trance/shallow hiphop. If my budget is 200 dollars, what are the best headphones I can get? If headphones that are good for rock and headphones that are good for "boom boom" techno/hiphop music are mutually exclusive, then forget...
