edition 8's sound fantastic, whether an ipod could do it justice is questionable. I have yet to be impressed by this combo... an amp would help most definitely. thta sad, the hd800 out of an ipod would be a big mistake and i have absolutely no doubt about that. The ed 8 sound great but from a...

I am hoping someone has tried the miniwatt with a K1000 and has some impressions to provide.. please advise if you have and any hearing impressions. or even a link to any posts and threads here. I have failed to turn these up in my searches

after 3 sessions (couple of hours each) now comparing the 2, the k1000 is a headphone that to me is in a class of its own. The HD800 is a great headphone, a flagship product at that, the senn engineers have done a fantastic job of getting rid of that crappy hd650 veil, its gone!!!!!! (i removed...

These arrived today morning and like an eager child, i got into using them straight away. Initial impressions - the bass is perfect (to my ears better than the HD650's by a fair reckoning), treble and midrange is all there, nothing intrudes nothing stands out, everything is beautifully...

Audiclean, it is essentially some form of sea water bottled off the coast of France, as for q-tips etc, might I suggest a simpler and far more efficient regimen.. Whe showering use some soap; and clean the inside of your ears, for all the smartypants around, No you do not shove soap down your...

How are you using the winamp plugin with foobar, would be interesting to give it a shot and see what happens..

Might I recommend putting out a WTB on a headband from a CD3000 znd see if that works. It just might. If it is too small, I am sure someone else would love to snag it. Larry at Headphile must have some lying around.

this is very sad news, I had just discovered him via the "Killing Me softly" single which I had never heard before. It was recommended by a good friend and I have grown to like it. I sure hope to discover more of his legacy soon

Deep sleep hack is your answer, in my case on the photo ipod, it works very well, plus I have noticed that even if I haven't used the player for a while (5-6 days), the battery doesn't drain. just perfect, Must add that ipod functions solely as a player and nothing else. no...

AKG rules as far as mids and treble is concerned, for bass lovers, not recommnded, as far as comfort goes imo, the akg formula of self adjusting headbands is simply the best, having tried the AKG version, I much prefer it. No fooling around with clips and nothces, just plonk them on and of you go.

after i damaged some of the cartilage on my ears with 10-12 hour sessions on the ms pro, i have cut down to max 2-3 hours now.

Always Got Tonight sweet album, gr8 voice nice guitar player

How can anyone forget the Koss range of portable cans. I will recommend the following Koss KSC-35 Koss KSC-55 Koss KSC-75 Whatever might be the rep on Koss fullsize cans, their portables rock.
