  1. What songs are on it? The album sounds familiar, I might have it.
  2. I agree with your sentiments of the RS-1 over the GS 1000. I'm looking to buy the senns hd 650 myself. Purely because it's the most comfortable pair of headphones I've worn and the sound is pretty good to boot. Can't wait to get it at the end of the year. Will most likely hooking it up to my notebook + creative xmod + atl mghead headphone amp. (probably switch it around with my hifi for more critical listening) Anyway I have to point out something, I've used the marantz cd 5400 and have tested the cd5001, I would have to say your source is seriously lacking. The difference I experienced when I switched to my NAD C542, from these two players was like night and day! I can only imagine how much better your phones will sound like with an even better source! Hope I don't get flamed for that, just my opinion from personal experience. On a side note, I've tried A LOT of players from $300 to $1.8k and it looks like if I want anything better for the music I listen to, I can forget about changing my nad unless I seriously invest a lot of dough. Any suggestions for cd players? Or heck maybe even a dac that I can hook up to my NAD?
  3. Too many to list but I'll just list the ones of the top of my head. 3 doors down - away from the sun 3 doors down - seventeen days Dishwalla - opaline Ray Lamontagne - Trouble
  4. dance with my father - luther vandross 3 doors down here by me 3 doors down here without you
  5. Get the nad c542. Lets just say I've had options to upgrade to cd players below $2000 and I'm still sticking to my nad. Excellent cd player. To me the difference from my previous cd player, the marantz cd5400 ( I used to love this budget player) and the nad c542 was night and day. I even preferred it to the rega. Maybe it's because of the type of music I listen to. I listen to a lot of rock and acoustic stuff. Blues as well. ( e.g. john mayer, 3 doors down, dishwalla )

So what do you guys think? Months in the making and I've finally completed my hifi journey. I know my setup's pathetic as compared to some of the rest here though but I hope it's entry level enough.
  7. Damn, wish I had the chance to audition the DT150.
  8. Ahhhh so jealous, wish I could've been there. Hopefully there's one soon and I'll get the chance to bring my gear too.
  9. I'm sorry but I'm quite confused here, this time round, there's no need to pay for the meet? Also I still can't confirm my attendance till tomorrow due to work schedule. Also anyone around boon lay area can give me a lift if I can make it? I don't have THAT much equipment, but what I do have is pretty heavy. :S
  10. I'm sorry but where's parklane shopping center? I'm only aware of the location of parklane shopping mall. Also how much do we have to pay this time round?
  11. Unfornately It's been so long since I bought it, I don't recall the numbers of the cables However when I did get it done at the shop, they did recommend me the cable for my intended usage.....also to add on, one end of my cables is slightly loose and sometimes may require twisting for it to work so might need to get it reterminated.
  12. Forgive my ignorance, but aren't they the same? Anyway if it helps, I use it connect between my cd player stereo out and my headphone amp.
  13. 0.75m each. Bought it for like $35 I think? Self collect at boon lay. Selling it at $12. Getting rid of it cause I just upgraded my cables. My contact is 98525633.
  14. I don't know about the other two phones but I've tried the 325i and totally loved it. Personally I prefered the 325i over the rs1. The rs1 sounded kinda airy to me? Found the 325i to be more cleaner? IMHO of course. Hoping to get it after Hari Raya. :S
  15. Hey dude, sorry for late reply. Was really busy. Anyway I called them up last monday and I just explained to them that mine was a replacement set so shouldn't I get a year warranty for it as well? They agreed and yup, product still under warranty! yay! totally made my day that day. Gonna send it in this coming monday.
