    Can an Apple inline control work with Android?

    Here's the link to the Groupon deal for the IEMs I mentioned.  It doesn't say specifically enginereed for iPhone.  It says "smartphones".  I don't have an Android phone to test out for you.  Hope this helps! Chris   http://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-iluv-fitactive-sports-earphones

    Can an Apple inline control work with Android?

    I don't have the headphones with me today of all days BUT I am pretty sure they were marketed to work with iPhone and Android devices.  I have an iPhone so I can't attest to first hand knowledge that they do in fact work with Android phones.  Until I get home to see the package, I can't give you...

    Can an Apple inline control work with Android?

    Wait now I'm confused as to what you are looking for.  There are a LOT of IEMs out there now that have inline controls for volume, fast forward, rewind, and pause.  So are you looking for IEMs that have those controls or ........  For example, I just got a set of IEMs off of Groupon for $10 that...

    Quote: In the US its used to put on shelves so glassware does not chip or break.  It's soft and slightly sticky so it stays in place as do glasses when placed upon it.  I just found a product that I am testing out this weekend which you pour onto the surface of your device.  It dries to a...

    Best portable iPod speaker-dock? Looking for something decent w/ battery

    If you know what Bose speakers sound like, I think they make a portable bluetooth speaker under $200.  Logitech as well.  A good source to use to shop, ironically, is the Apple store.  They carry many portable speaker brands, most of good to high quality.

    Quote: Don't worry.  They are just messing with you.  There is nothing wrong or illegal about your post.  The fact your rig was built on "on sale", "used" or "refubbed" items makes it qualify for "budget rig" worthiness.  Don't sweat it dude and don't take it personally!!!!!!!!!!!

    Need advice on upgrade

    Can I ask a dumb question - why the need for your setup to have NO amp.  There are some of the best sounding portable amps out on the market that are way smaller than the DAP you are considering.  Also, you can find many people here on head-fi that make custom cables and LODs to keep the...
