friggin awesome man, dubstep it up!
can't wait till this one is released
that chick is so annoying shes not even that hot. Does she even do anything other then sit there and attempt to sing.
i think that may be forever unreleased along with ruffneck (electro version). remember skrillex's laptop getting stolen?
How does everyone's laptop keep getting stolen? Mt Eden's laptop was jacked, too. Do they just leave that **** sitting on the metro or what?
Hey guys I have an amp at home. But im going to be using my 900's mostly at work so I'm not sure whether to get the E11 or the E7. I know the amp on the E11 is more powerful, but how much more powerful is it compared to the E7.
I use a macbook pro at work to listen to music, but I mostly listen to through Pandora so I don't know whether I will be even able to hear the benefit of the dac from the e7.
@Zoqi
Do they make J$ pads for the 900's or are you ordering the ones for Denons ?
I want to get some pads that provide more comfort and isolation.
The E7 is pleny powerfull but only in the USB DAC output which is how I use it at work (itunes)... with the E7 you'd get a better SQ than oboard + bass boost + charge and play and cant on the e11, all music even pandora streaming should benefit. However if you are primarily running off a ipod go for the e11 as the pure amp mode on the e7 is a bit weak. There is the new E10 on the horrison which is just a usb powered mini desktop amp which might be worth a look too.
"Do they make J$ pads for the 900's or are you ordering the ones for Denons ?" they are the J$ denon ones glued onto a Pro 900 quickfit plate.

I consider myself more of a junglist, but I do like some dubstep.
There is good dubstep, mainly the 'old skool' (yes I know dubstep is not old) producers who were there at the beginning. Skrillex is almost single-handedly turning dubstep into some sort of joke genre. The mainstream rubbish that is about nowadays is not in the true spirit of the original dubstep sound IMO.
I see you also have the HD650's. I'm thinking of selling mine when I get the 900's but I think I will miss their sound signature.
I just can't stand that new listeners being brought to dubstep by artists like Skrillex think that their sound IS the dubstep sound. "OMG this is SICK", "It's soooo FILTHY", "Skrillex invented dubstep LOOLOL" etc etc.
The elements that make dubstep, dubstep are being lost to this "mainstream" dubstep you speak of. It's turning into mass-produced, lowest common denominator music (think happy hardcore). Souless dubstep that focusses on high frequency, ear grating synths and not on deep sub-bass and heavy, tribal beats. It's similar to Pendulum and their god awful brand of drum and bass rock/metal.
And in the UK at least, it's hardly a fringe genre. Dubstep hasn't been underground since like 2002. Go to any club night, even a non-dubstep specific night and you can guarantee they'll drop some cheesy dubstep remix of a pop song at some point.
But as you say, people like what they like and I'm certainly not gonna stop the easily accessible sound of this mainstream dubstep taking over. I just know when I look at an event flier if the line up suits me or not. Thankfully, there are still producers and labels that will keep the old sound alive.
I found this excellent video that illustrates my point. Watch it to the end!
