Does a person born with good ears, or they trains or something??? I've been listening to music more and more with hi-end headphones and speakers. and I experienced distortion and cracking noise while I listen to music (I never heard those noises before) Am I having a hearing loss?
I recently got a new pair of headphones and now am really interested in music and expanding my tastes in music . Can anyone point out some books/websites about learning to become an audiophile/ learning about the more technical side of music .
I'm hoping to get a pair of either Westone UM2 ...
Hello, what is the sound quality of a vinyl record in comparison to a CD or a Cassette? What about an Mp3 (assuming the Mp3 is at a bit rate of at least 256 kbps). I know since Vinyl is analog it doesnt have a bit rate really, but in terms of audio quality, would a Vinyl be below a CD , but...
Hi there. I am looking for a nice pair of headphones under 150$. In my research, I have come to understand that there is not one good headphone; it simply depends on what type you prefer.

missions? I'm trying to collect all the audiophiles, so I started a brand new game on easy. I've already collected most of them, however, there are a few that looked as if I've already gotten them (they did not glow yellow) that in reality, I did not. As far as I can tell, this is because I...
so the issue is i heard the sound isn't that great on the ipod as far as audiophilics say.
Like I heard the clipplus or iriver etc's sound quality is really good. I was thinking of buying a music/mp3 player that has good sound quality and really good battery life.
I would primarily use the...

Hello,
I'm purchasing a turntable (the first in many years, as there's just nothing like the sound quality of vinyl...) and my options are currently crossed between a few different ones. I don't wish to spend over (an accumulated) $300 and I'd prefer if I could listen to it with headphones. I...

suffice? I have a need to split an audio signal to a TV and to an amp. The audio signal is standard line-level and conntecte via standard RCA plugs.
I know I could use a standard Y-cable to do this - but would I run into problems with impedence or low signal levels, thus degrading the signal...
One of these days I'd like to be able to call myself an audiophile though currently I don't seem to have the money to call myself one. However I'm looking to work toward my audiophile goal.
I recently spent about $700 on building a new pc. I am now looking to upgrade the audio output on said pc...
