Re: [arr] Best headphones required !!! HELP
Raghu, i stay in Chennai dude. BTW for all you people here is some very very interesting music. They are called bin aural recordings.Best effect with the headphone. Dont be surprised if track one is the best thing u've ever heard on your headphones. It is legal to download this music but only if you use it for non commercial purposes. It was originally uploaded by duke of eli at headfi.org "http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f9/must-try-benchmark-cd-link-details-inside-206724/"; the download link is: http://www.pointstone.com/steven/Audio/Ultrasone%20CD.rar Regards, Aditya. BTW you will need a player that plays flac format. Foobar 2k is you bet. Have fun.You don't have to thank me.I've tried to make you listen to this sooner than you would thats all. --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, "Raghu B P" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Aditya, Thanks a ton for the info.

Re: [arr] Best headphones required !!! HELP
Hi everyone, I tried posting a mail before, but was in a hurry and I'm not sure if i even managed to post it successfully. The thing is i think i can help some people. Without being condescending i believe that BOSE as a headphone is great compared to your creatives,i pod free-bees,and the likes. However,the general perception in audiophile circles is that BOSE is a overpriced toy.By the way, any noise cancellation is deemed highly distortive(because the artificial noise cancellation interferes with the original frequencies).In any case, the point is that for the price you pay for BOSE you are likely to find much better sounding headphones than the Goliath.Also BOSE is not the pinnacle of sound reproduction as the myth surrounding it around here suggests.Ask a good DJ and you will know. To the more important point, This dossier is a good starting point for people looking at headphones. Less than 2000: buy Koss KSC75(better than QC3). For 5k to 12-15k try Grados SR series,medium priced Shures , Audio Technica wooden series etc. For more expensive ones under 25 k try HD595 600 650.Denons,bayer dynamics,ultimate ears or shure(for in ear). under 30K-50k you can get grados GS/HP series or ultrasone.Ofcourse you will enter STAX/Sony RS1 here and go on till 3 lakhs in STAX. But for the best headphones like the HDs or grados amplifiers are a must.All headphones worth more than 15 k are just as good as the Music you listen to.The best headphones needs the best amps and the best source to create the best music. For senheissers i would suggest you little dot or dark voice amplifiers.If money is not a constraint look at stuff like zana deux. In any case if you are looking at spending 15 k you would do better than to look at a mail like this. Try headfi.org. The singular site for audiophiles. For people looking to shred me to pieces i accept that i have very little knowledge in this area.But i've studied enough to know that regardless of the knowledge, one has one likely to get the same advice even from a pro. Regards, Aditya. Lenovo R61 > EMU 0404 USB DAC > blue jeans cable > little dot MKV > HD650.This set up cost me around 55k(not the laptop).But i love it.

Re: [arr] Best headphones required !!! HELP
ummm your statement holds good for the highest end models. Like HD650. The reason is simply cuz of your player ( computer) output. You need another amplifier in between. Else i have so many brands , i still rate Sennheiser the best.

Re: [arr] Best headphones required !!! HELP
i dont think grado is available in india or atleast iam sure you must hunt a bit before you find one.The SR-60 is highly acclaimed and costs 69$ online excluding shipping.You can try the alessandro MS-1(a part of grado) which ships internationally for 99$. @arun: do u know where grado can be found in india>?
