And that’s exactly what the B&W P7 offer and a reasonably affordable price particularly if you’re in the u.S. Where I’m told these cans can be yours for under $300. The P7’S are built from stainless steel and other metals with a touch of leather plus leather ear cuffs, the cuffs are attached to

Hello Hank: I also used Station Playlist Studio years ago, but haven't for years. I think you need it only to transmit live, from your own home or office, not to transmit pre-recorded programs, which is what I do, from the remote Shoutcast server. Humberto -Original Message- From: Pc-

I already had an excellent pair of AKG Q701 phones. The only drawback with those is that the use of a p

Hi Anders, Obviously, one can do what one wishes with one's money. But if I were primarily listening to sports, I'm not sure I'd spring for something like the p7. For me, listening to essentially talk doesn't require the fidelity and cost of something like a p7. But different strokes, as they say.
