    Fly with a Falcon

    In person, these birds are even more amazing. Not far from my house there are a few eagles, which have wingspans of around 7 ft...they're incredible to watch.

    Accurate-rip

    I previously only ripped my CDs to a portable friendly MP3 (I was young and didn't know any better). I'm planning to rip all my CDs to FLAC as over the past year I've been using my Zune less and less and Google Music (which supports FLAC) more and more. This means I can now rip all my music to...

    In search of new headphones...

    In case it wasn't clear...I purchased Zing's AKG K701 headphones. They came in last week, but due to traveling I wasn't able to use them much until today. I thought I'd take a stab at putting my initial thoughts into words, but before I do that I just want to thank Zing for a great...

    The bright green is something else. I was showing my wife the different headphones I was considering and had the green ones up. She flat out laughed at me and just said, "No". Any chance I can get you to throw in the trash can? I could use a new one for my office and it would be nice for...

    Are those the same ones you posted pictures of in the trash over on S&V? Shouldn't that further lower the price? :D I'll send you a PM...

    I got my new IEMs in the mail today. Considering what they cost, I'm really impressed with the build quality. I just spent the last few hours trying them out. I tried all the tips that came with them and decided to use the tri-flanges for the time being. I think they sound the best, are the...

    Yes, I'm familiar with head-fi. I've been reading the forums there more than I care to admit over the past few weeks. I've learned a lot, but I still have a ways to go. I've been away from the hobby for awhile (bought a house, got married and spent the last few years renovating). That's why I...

    Beats Pro by Dr. Dre

    I just bought a new pair of IEMs from Amazon. This morning they sent me an e-mail with the subject, "Amazon.com: Headphones You May Have Missed". There are 6 items in the e-mail. Number 1 on the list are the Bose IE2s, number 2 are the Bose QuietComfort 15 and number 6 are the Beats Studio... I...

    In search of new headphones...

    Thanks for the offer walls...I noticed it a few hours too late. I went with option number 2 (typing that I feel like I'm on a game show...). After reading over Joker's multi-IEM review on head-fi again and reviews on Amazon, etc. I narrowed it down to the UE 350 that Zing recommended...

    No, I don't need absolute silence and I definitely do not want to miss a phone ring or a co-worker talking to me. I work in a cube-style office. Each cube has one ≈6 ft high wall that separates each row and two ≈4 ft high walls that separate each cube (pretty typical I think...). I play my music...

    In search of new headphones...

    I'm not sure I'm ready to purchase a headphone amp. I still don't have a sub in my "theater". :oops: Once I finish the renovations on my house and purchase a sub then I'll look into a headphone amp. After reading everyone's comments, I'm leaning heavily towards buying a cheaper IEM for travel...

    In search of new headphones...

    Thanks! Zing - at the price, I may be able to swing trying out an IEM for travel and getting a pair of headphones for home/office. For example, I could get the V-Moda M80 and these for within my max budget. That is something I considered, but when I saw the price of most of the headphones I...

    In search of new headphones...

    Hello all…I posted a few times over on Sound and Vision and have been keeping up with events here at the Annex. I’m in need of some advice again and thought I would take this opportunity to say hello, happy holidays and ask for help (again...). I’m lucky enough to have the opportunity to travel...
