| Best Private Retreat Using Closed Headphones There are a few but they all suffer from the effect of cups. I find the pro Sennheiser HD 25-I-II to be extremely dynamic and very good sounding - perhaps because of the small volume of these cans? They offer 17 db background noise reduction and n... | |
| The Best of the English Sound Given your setup I'd suggest a good subwoofer might be another angle to pursue/consider. | |

| Kharma ceramic blow up Changster,Just get a pair of ATC 100ASL and you won't be blowing midrange anymore.There is a good reason why large three ways with the accuton mid use TWO midranges! | |
| When will rap music be less mainstream? Any of you like Maroon 5 - this is a rap hip hop influenced pop group. Kind of Jamiroquai meets a rap beat like Eminem?Anyway, just to say that those who dismiss rap out of hand simply don't get it. | |
