    Android Bluetooth DAC advice

    I'm not really the world's most passionate audio connoisseur, but I listen to podcasts and music 8 hours/day, and I'm a geeky developer who has to over-research everything.  Lately I'm taking a Nexus 7 to work everyday and listening to stuff that I pre-download on Play Music All Access.  It's my...

    replacing 555s, looking at ATH-AD900, mostly listening to Pandora One...

    I have some Sennheiser HD 555s that I think I bought in 2000.  The foam padding is flat, the plastic is starting to separate, and finally the left side completely cut out.  So I guess it's time to replace them.   I'm a developer, and I sit in a cube in front of a computer and listen to...

    Are PX 200s that much worse than PX 100s?

    My GF needs new headphones for working out in a gym. She pretty much only likes smallish supra-aural headphones. Anything bigger is too big, she doesn't like things hanging off her ears, and the vertical headphones don't stay in too well for her. The PX 100s look just about perfect, except...

    Suggestions for comfy $100 phones? Looking at Senn HD-555.

    I'm no major audiophile. I spend long stretches working with my computer listening to Shoutcast. I just rebuilt my computer and got a case with a phone jack on the front, so I plugged in my Sony vertical phones that I use to work out, and decided I really like using phones on my computer, but...
