Which has better sound quality? Thats all i want to know

Hi,   My old NWZ-S639F has been acting crazy for a couple of weeks now (it turns on and off constantly when not playing anything, which drains the battery), so I'm in need of a replacement. I've been quite happy with it, so I'm looking to buy something similar and the NWZ-s755 seems the...

Ive never been able to figure this out. Ive thought About it and this is what i think. 1) i see lots of ppl who like to be seen with their apple earbuds, cause they probablythink the ipod is a high end producy and want to make it visible to others that they have one. 2) theyre dellusional and...

SQ is my number one requirement. I want it $200 or less. Expandable memory and a good EQ could be a deal breaker, and it needs to be able to have flac support. I'm looking at the cowon s9, iaudio 9, and the sansa fuze/clip. Any others that have better sound quality than the ones i named in that...

First of all   Hello Head-Fi!! Long time lurker first time poster i've gotten into portable audio from head-fi and started of with a generic 2gb mp3 with stock headphones   Heres the stuff i use its nothing special but its a start   Sources: Zen X-fi 10gb (8+2) , Htc Wildfire...

Hi all.   Ive been asked by a friend to reccomend him some good cans. His initial choice were the Dre Beats, but I said save yourself some ££ and get some Beyer DT770's.   His taste lies with Rap, D&B etc.   He listens to music through an iBoard or whatever it is, and an mp3 player...

  Hello! I came to this site some time back for assistance in finding a set of closed cans, and I’m still grateful for the plethora of good advice given to me. I’m hoping I can, once again, rely on you trusty Head-Fi’ers to give me some words of wisdom on some IEM’s I’m looking for!  ...

I'm going to tell you a tale full of twists and turns. It's going to be a long story, so be patient and read it to the end. If you can' t read, go somewhere else. You have been warned... Once upon a time, where the e-shops were affordable, and good headphones hard to get, lived a kid. He loved...

Hi there! This is my first post here.    I consider myself to have a pretty good ear. Im not including why, for fear of sounding terribly conceited :D   My question is about DACs. I'm guessing that, as per the name, a DAC takes an audio file and turns it into analog waves that can be...

Hi again,             I've searched through the archives but I still couldn't find what I'm after. I take it there are cheaper versions of the Etymotic product but I don't know where to look or what to type as a search in Google. The official cable seems very expensive! Thanks again.

Well I got the HD25's a few months ago and now two MP3 players have the same problem. The sound cuts out*Ipod is left ear sansa clip is right ear*, I do not believe it is the cable and it does not happen all of the time. I have tried the Ipod with various other headphones and that confirmed it...

Since my smartphone (HTC G2) is also my primary MP3 player, I'm looking for a headset with mic, much like the shure push to hear (PTH) which has been discontinued, that's compatible with any earphones. Anyone know of any good options?

So there's nothing I enjoy more than music and decided I should look into a pair. I'm a noob as far as headphones go, I've only used **** quality junkers thus far and really can't do much to describe what I want. Anyway, I don't want to go over 160$ if possible. Though I would like some...

I am an idiot regarding audio. But I hate "wires". I want a good quality over the ear headphone/MP-3 combined. It can be MP-3 or device using flash memory. Where can I get such device?

 I have a Sony Ericsson Elm, the headphones delivered with the phone are crap. I want to upgrade with hd 203, I would like to know if these headphones can be driven full throttle by a portable device, do I need to go for "streetwear" like the px series for best results? I would like an answer as...

Itm my birstday 24 april and i am sure what to get,a sennheiser HD 518 But do i need to have something like a portable amp for this or can i run it from pretty much any MP3 player/PC?  

I'm curious about some headphones to use while riding my bike and I don't like earbuds.   On ebay the portapros are $50 in the US but they are $100 in Australia.  On headphones.com.au they are $134.   Are they for sale anywhere in Australia for a reasonable price?

I'm looking for a portable audio player and I'm liking everything I read about the S9.  Is there anything like the S9 but smaller?  I'm mainly looking for sound quality and easy to navigate songs (touchscreen).  I do not need video.  I tried the new Nano and something like that would be nice...

Hello, I know very little about sound quality really, but more than your average person off the street. I have been through a couple of what I call MP3 players and various headphones and earphones. I started off with a cell phone and some crappy nokia earphones, thinking "wow I love listening to...

I've been looking at a new phone and portable music gear and I'd probably want two-in-one solution but iPhone is too expensive for my liking, I've also concidered for example Cowon i9 mp3 player and keep this phone a bit longer but I don't listen to music on the go too much to be worth it I...

I really don't get it??? Why can't I just create my playlist on WMP and drag it to my player?   Who the crap has time to type out file paths for a freakin' buttload of songs just for a playlist?     I still don't know how to do it and I've read the rockbox manual that was useless.  ...

just what the title says

Hi im wanting to buy a mp3 player ,well anything thats not a ipod and have better sq and compatible with a mac.   Product i looked at so far... Zune 120 ,not compatible with mac cowon x7 ,compatiblity issues it bricks mac     anything else i missed?  

Hello, I have a question regarding portable android devices and headphones amps/DACs.   Everywhere I read I see people stressing the importance purchasing an LOD to bypass the iPhone/iPod onboard amp/DAC. For example, I have an iPod and an e7. I use the LOD between the two so the e7 receives...
