    Sennheiser HD 555 - Xbox 360 gaming

    Tried my HD 595's on my Panasonic plasma and it sounds okay. It plays really loud, 1/4 volume is more than enough.

    Proof that Senn HD555 and HD595 use identical driver assembly

    CD Player to borrow? Cape Town - Southern Suburbs

    Since I'm the proud owner of a Exclame I have to say that it is the best peace of audio equipment ever purchased. Bass performance is remarkable for a 100w integrated amplifier. It is a very revealing amplifier, bad recordings and bad sources will not be transformed from lemons to lemonade...

    Three engineers were in the bathroom standing at the urinals. The first engineer finished and walked over to the sink to wash his hands. He then proceeded to dry his hands very carefully. He used paper towel after paper towel and ensured that every single spot of water on his hands was dried...

    At last I'm back to speaker building. ;D                                                                                             Between a hectic work schedule, other projects, and my wife giving me k@k no progress was made for nearly three months. I turned a punch on my lathe to cut felt...

    My condolences on the loss of your dog. "The best friend man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son, or daughter, that he has reared with loving care, may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and good name...

    Common spelling errors in this forum

    Maybe all of us dyslexic Afrikaners should just laugh at ourselves: A woman sitting at a restaurant in Brakpan suddenly began to cough while eating a giant country-fried steak. After a few seconds it became apparent that she was in real distress, and two locals at the next table turned to look...
