has anyone checked out a set of enclosed headphones called Vivanco SR 250? they're really cheap but the sound is superb. what's also nice is that they don't need much to drive them, you can get excellent (and loud) sounds from a walkman/discman. I was looking for a set of seinheisser's which could be driven from a discman, but to my dismay I could barely hear anything out of them at full volume :-( austin. >-----Original Message----- >From: Irene McC [SMTP:xxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx] >Sent: Thursday, May 28, 1998 1:10 PM >To: xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx >Subject: Re: (idm) Headphones for listening to IDM??? > >On 27 May 98, laerm wrote re: Re: (idm) Headphones for listening : > >> unless you buy an enclosed pair, though. > >Agreed.
