Headphones anyone?

[Jive18]

Just seeing if anyone else happens to share this hobby of mine (though addiction might be a better term for me).





Currently my setup is through my PC, which is obviously the easiest and most practical method for any college kid to maintain a music collection (you know how large those dorm rooms are *rolls eyes*).

My line consists of an E-MU 0404 USB DAC (digital to analog converter) -> RCA interconnects (Heartland Cables) -> C&C v2 Headphone Amp -> either my AKG K81DJ's or new Grado SR225's.

Anyone understand my audio jibberish?

Guess that answered my questions .

Yes, most would probably say I've went overboard (my family reminds me everyday). Many people are content with standard iBuds afterall.

I'm guess the quality of sound matters a lot to you. I wanted to something like that but something keeps holding me back, you know...like a BUDGET. :/

having no hearing in my right ear DOES NOT HELP. Though if you know of any set up headhones that can trick my one ear into thinking it's listening to suround sound or stereo, spit it out! 'Cause hearing in mono sucks.

That's some serious equipment... reminds me of my friend's DJ setup.. I just blast my music out of my stereo or laptop (tin tin tinny) without regard to anyone who has to listen to my offbeat collection of tunes (which range from girliepop j14 stuff to hardcore gothic darkwave to jpop high-pitchy idols to hardcore screamo to save-the-king metal... and so on)

honestly I like playing music loud, I want to feel the bass, and hear every minor chord. I hate having to wear earbuds or keep the volume low. But headphones really are the way to go in a small space with roomates who dont share your awkward or wide ranging tastes in music lol.

Thats a very nice setup though man. Kudos!

I can't wear eadphones, due to my crazy hair.

I got me a set of these last year: ATH-EM700 SV. Only because I got that one Persona 3: Fes package that had it. They're supposedly really good, but I can't really tell.

I know this is about headphones, but your keyboard looks rather trendy.

I prefer my iPod headphones myself, if I want sound quality, well I have Bose Surround Sound.
