Nevermind a functionality check, I think some people on this board need a human emotion check! I thought your post was hillarious.

I just had a look through some of the threads about the Alessandro MS2i's over on HeadFi and you're right, people generally do like them. Again, my only issue is that music-press reviews are thin on the ground and I'm not sure if they will be too warm-sounding? Perhaps I should just get a pair...

Good idea about the M70x's, I hadn't thought about the next level up from the M50's and the M70's have got good reviews. I think I'll look into those. I'm still not sure about those Alessandro/Grado headphones as reviews of them are quite thin on the ground and it seems like a big risk to order...

I'm not really sure about the M-S 2's as I will also have to pay import tax which can end up being quite expensive, so I'd prefer to get something in the UK. The B&O's look quite good but at the moment I'm thinking maybe the Philips Fidelio X2 might be good or some Shure SRH1540's.

Hi, I'd like some advice about getting an upgrade from my ATH-M50's as they're starting to flake around the headband and pads and bits of leather coming off everywhere. I have a budget of around £200-300 but if there's something exceptional then I don't mind raising that. I will be using the...

Sorry to resurrect this thread nearly a year after the last post but I also have this TV but would like some settings advice for someone who doesn't generally watch Blu Ray films and instead uses the TV to watch TV shows mainly. I am very confused about which settings to use, I have tried both...

What's offline mode like? Does it allow you to download the songs to your computer or is it similar to other streaming services where it just puts a file somewhere on your computer but not actual audio files and you have to still use Qobuz to actually play the music? The reason I'm asking is...

I think you are both right, perhaps it is a false economy to buy a turntable I will hardly use, especially seeing as a lot of vinyl's come with download codes anyway. When I meant connecting it to my PC might be lower quality, I meant by USB, if I use the usual RCA connection direct into my...

Would I be able to achieve the same thing with a cheaper turntable? I have seen an Audio Technica AT-LP60 USB for £114. I know it's only belt-driven and won't have a brilliant cartridge on it but seeing as I'll only be playing vinyl now and again, would this be good enough for what I want? I...

Hi everyone, I am wondering whether I should be an entire new system (either an all-in-one or separates) or just a turntable and then connect it to my PC? The reason I'm asking is because I have started to buy a few vinyl records (mostly Aphex Twin to complete my collection of his stuff) but...

Thanks a lot, I thought I was on the right track. I might get the Pro's then in that case. I'm not sure how I'd go about boosting the bass with my Focusrite audio interface as it doesn't have external controls for EQ-ing or any software. There are some VST's it uses but these are for use in a...

I'm glad I found this thread as I'm considering buying either the Pro or Classic. At the moment I have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50's and some Philips Fidelio X1's but I really can't decide which is better but having read some reviews of the Focal's on the Innerfidelity site, they seem like...

Thanks for the reply but I plumped for the Philips as I saw it for sale on ebay for just under £200 (sans remote but I have ordered a new one from Dutchwest.co.uk).

Hi everyone, I currently have an Onkyo HTX-22HDX receiver with the additional 5.1 speakers connected to my 37 inch Panasonic TV but I'm looking to downgrade if you will to a soundbar or soundbase because I don't really make much use of the 5.1 surround setup and more importantly, I just can't...

Thanks very much for the reply but I think I'm going to go with a bluetooth pair as I prefer having no cables connected to the Sony Xperia Z2 so I can use it better as a camera and leave it in my bag while controlling everything from the headphones. I am going to buy some headphones next week...
