Schitt Audio Still in business???
The names of their products can't be a plus either! 
Is upgrading pre worth it?
FWIW, I recently replaced my longtime solid state McIntosh preamplifier with a tube unit. For me, the change was epic. Please don't attack this statement as it is no reflection on McIntosh. I think everyone has an ideal image of what sound they wa... 
What in the world is going on.....
Sorry, stringreen, but this thread went off track several postings go. I got your point about being disappointed about the sound through your MP3/ Sennheiser setup being superior to your vinyl rig. I wish I had the answer to your dilemma. What dis... 
What in the world is going on.....
I'm SHOCKED, shocked to learn that not everyone on this forum has the same musical tastes. Even the original poster of this thread admitted that on headphones, Paul Simon's "Stranger to Stranger" sounded "wonderful". Look, you may not like the alb... 
Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time?
I listened to the Fostex 900 at an audio show and really liked them. I have found that satisfaction with headphones has a lot to do with the amplifier that drives them. Listening through a Blue Hawaii headphone amp is a lot different than plugging...

Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time?
So then, I guess everyone here is an imbecile. Is that right? 
Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time?
I could easily avoid this topic but I do have a comment. If someone wants to purchase any piece of high-end audio equipment (at full price), then sell it after only 10 hours use, I'm happy to buy it from them at 50% (or less) of their original pur...

Paul Simon recordings "sound crap"? Really, go listen to the "Graceland" CD or vinyl, and tell me it sounds "crap." You may need a hearing check. And for the comment about the new album being recorded "loud," makes me think about a car that is too... 
What in the world is going on.....
I'm sorry that you are disappointed in the vinyl version of the new Paul Simon record, "Stranger to Stranger." I bought the CD the day it came out and played it in the car on the way home, and played it again listening to headphones later that day... 
Individual International Seller Scam
rja,Please re-read my post. That's exactly my point! Your chances of having a bad experience are magnified once money leaves this country. At least you have a chance of finding a scammer here, but what are your chances of tracking down someone in ... 
Biggest bang for buck headphones removed really?
I thought the term "websites" was clear enough, but I never meant headfi, or headphone .com. It was a reference to websites that sell audio equipment, like e**y or cr******st. That should have been obvious. It was to me! 
What's your favorite lyric from a song?

Individual International Seller Scam
This isn't the first thread about a scam, or how a member was duped by a "parasite". Obviously, there are cheaters in this world! What works for me may not work for others on this forum, but I never buy from anyone unless they are within driving d... 
Yamaha DSP-A1 for 2.1 System
As a further comment on my posting above, I sold my Yamaha DSP A1 the next weekend, along with another Yamaha system. I sold them both on one of the no-fee websites. I sold them cheap and the family that bought them were thrilled to get them. The ...
