That's what I'm thinking. I think the 1.8" plug part is flimsy and that in needs something to keep it sturdy and firm, if that makes sense. I just found this at MonoPrice. Do you think this will solve the problem, if not completely, then enough to operate?

The audio works fine when it's plugged into the TV and the amp works with different sources, like my iPod and Powerbook. I tried my headphones through the amp and then to a female/female coupler to the RCA/1.8" adapter and I get the same result, but I get a better range of tweaking the adapter...

This might be the wrong forum, and if it is please direct me to the right place, but I've got a problem with my CMoy amp and using it my Xbox 360. I have my 360 connected via VGA for video and for the audio I use the two white and red stereo cables through an adapter that converts that to a...

I currently have a pair of Sennheiser HD202s with no amp and even broken in, they sound a bit muddy. I like the warm sound and nice bass, but they only sound so good, even at the cheap $20 I paid for them. I'm finally considering upgrading by getting a pair of Grado SR60s to use at home, with...

I'm looking for a good place to buy Sennheiser cans, more specifically the HD 205 and cans like it. Also, where's a good place to get the Shure e2c's?

Newegg has 'em for $49.99 with Free Shipping, is there anywhere else cheaper?

Thanks for the responses. Where can I get that foam used for the reversible mod on the MD33s? I'd like to try and see if that makes the sound better.

How much would burning help the sound of the MD33s? Right now, I have them plugged into my CD player lying on my bed with a CD on repeat. Is that a) safe b) recommended or c)useless? EDIT: Where can I get that foam to use on the reversible mod? It seems incredibly easy. Just take off sleeve...

Is there anything I can do besides taking apart my brand new cans?

I just received my MD33s in the mail a few minutes ago and after I got them in my ears I tried them out to dissappointing results. The music is very nasal sounding and when sometimes the bass gets a bit muddy. Is this just because they haven't been burnt in yet? How much does burning in effect...

The Sharp HP-MD33S, Sony MDR-EX71SL, or the Shure E2cs?

I'm looking to buy a pair of Shure E2c's, but I need to know where the cheapest place to buy them is. It would really be nice if this store accepted Paypal.

Anyone know if these are better than the Shure E2Cs? If so, by how much?

Am I going to need an amp for the E2s?

Basically, I have $100 to spend and was wondering if the Shure E2Cs, the Senn 555s, or the Alessandro MS1s are the best for the money.

How hard are they to put in your ear every time you want to use them?

I've heard a lot of good things about the Shure E2Cs but I was wondering how much do they block outside noise out and how's the sound quality overall? Also, where's the cheapest place to get these? I've only seen $99.99. And if you can recommend any other cans for this price make it happen.

I need two questions answered: What is the best pair of headphones, unamped, for $50 and the best under $100.

Amazon.com has a good deal on the AUDIO TECHNICA ATH-M2X. Are they worth the money?

Someone please recommend a case I could use to transport my cans to school and in the car and stuff like that, thanks

How much does burn in effect the sound of the headphones? Some say burn in has a drastic effect, some say there is little effect, and some say that there is no effect. The amount of change resulting from burn in will be different for each model of headphones. ^^ Thats what i want to know...

Tomorrow I finally get my Sennheiser 202s , my first pair of headphones that didn't come with a cd player, and I was wondering what the best burn-in method was for these cans? Thanks

I ended up finding the 202s for 20 bucks online and I got em, thanks for the help guys

LOL good stuff, thats the only complaint ive really heard is too much bass, and for the Philips its the awkward look and feel, so its really between these two so I dunno EDIT: what burn-in method do you usually use? this will be my first half-way decent headphones and I wanna break em in
