    Need some advice on buying headphones!

    Good point. I won't be able to try them in store, as my Best Buy and local stereo shop don't have them. So, I have to shop online. I'm leaning towards the Klipsch, because I really like on ear. Do you think this would be a good choice?

    Need some advice on buying headphones!

    Yes, I'm in Canada. Unfortunately, my town is limited for headphones options. Just a Best Buy and a local stereo shop. I'm debating between the Klipsch Reference On-Ear II and the Sennheiser HD-560S. The Klipsch is on ear, which I'm used to, and they are a reputable company. But the...

    Need some advice on buying headphones!

    Thanks for your responses. Basically, I was looking at options for higher quality wired on-ear headphones. I currently have Skull Candy headphones that I've used for years, and are now falling apart. I was looking to get something a bit higher end, and more expensive (they cost me about $30!)...

    Need some advice on buying headphones!

    I'm looking for wired on-ear headphones. Would the Klipsch Reference On-Ear II be a good choice? It meets all of my criteria. On the other hand, I've never tried over ear headphones, and I've been told Sennheisers are great. Should I get the Klipsch headphones, or something else? Thanks for...

    Is it possible for music to damage speakers at a normal volume?

    Throbbing Gristle were the pioneers of industrial music. The specific type I'm listening to is power electronics, which is a mix of industrial and noise. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics_(music) It's pretty extreme stuff, and to be honest, I'm just dabbling in it. My original...

    Is it possible for music to damage speakers at a normal volume?

    By feedback, I mean sounds on the CD itself. Not the speakers! I have a Panasonic SC-PMX800 that came with the speakers: https://www.panasonic.com/ca/consumer/audio-video/audio/premium/sc-pmx800.html This stereo can get very loud, but I'm playing it at a lower volume. The music I'm playing...

    Is it possible for music to damage speakers at a normal volume?

    My speakers can definitely handle even very loud volumes. So, it doesn't matter what type of sounds are being made, just as long as it isn't too loud for the system? I am playing music from the noise genre.

    Is it possible for music to damage speakers at a normal volume?

    I'm listening to harsh industrial music that includes a lot of extreme frequencies and feedback. Assuming I'm listening at a reasonable volume, could this damage my stereo speakers in any way? I asked this on another forum, and got mixed answers, so I figured I'd ask the experts here. :)...

    Panasonic SC-PMX800 VS Denon M41

    I was originally looking for a Denon M41, but they are hard to find. Also, I heard some negative things on this forum. I talked with a guy at a nearby stereo store (although not in my town), and he recommended the Panasonic SC-PMX800. I haven't seen many reviews, but they are about the same...

    Denon M41 VS Yamaha CRXN470

    I'm getting a CD setup for the bedroom, and need help deciding! It's between the Denon M41 and the Yamaha CRXN470. I've heard mostly good things about the Denon (with a 5-star review here), but a small number of reviews state it didn't last long. I haven't heard too much about the Yamaha. I'm...

    Looking for CD stereo system

    Does anyone know a good place to buy these items? I'm located in Canada. I noticed they are sold out on a lot of sites.

    Looking for CD stereo system

    Thanks for all the great responses. My budget is about $1,500 Canadian, so about $1,200 US. I did try cleaning my Bose with a disc cleaner. I've also had it repaired a few times. So, I'm looking for something different. Do I just need a CD player + speakers? Or do I need a receiver or amp...

    Looking for CD stereo system

    Was looking at CD players + bookshelf speakers. I should also mention, I want this to sound even better than the Bose Wave System IV.

    Looking for CD stereo system

    I currently have the Bose Wave System IV, but it has issues. It will randomly skip, make clicking noises, and sometimes not read discs. I've had this for 8+ years, I don't really want another one! So I'm looking for a replacement. This is for a bedroom. I was told a CD player with amp and...
