I have a Sony Walkman that I got for Christmas last year. Since I don't have a CD burner, I plug headphones into the jack in our computer to listen to my MP3's. I have a $20 pair of Sony "Dynamic Stereo" headphones.
 
Main:
Parasound AVC2500/HCA2205
Hales Revelation 3/2/Center
Bag End Infrasub 18
Panasonic RP82 DVD
Rega Planet CD

PC:
NHT Super Zeros
SW3P sub

Car:
Whatever they put in a 3.2TL.
 
For my Home speakers..i got rid of the logitech 560's and got 2 pairs of cerwin vegas, and an older style JVC Amp. Older BSR Graphic EQ and hooked it all up to my comp. The speakers are Cerwin Vega D-3's 3way speakers with 10 inch woofer rated at 125 watts each. and Cerwin vega Vs-120's 3 was speakers with 12 inch woofers rated at 255 watts each.
The vs-120's before i

The d-3s

Also have a pair of D-7's Powered by another older jvc amp in the living room for parties.
 
My iRiver H320 with Sony ex71's and my pc.
 
My laptop is an audiophiles dream with what I deem to be the best laptop speakers in the world!

I recently installed a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi on my main pc, with a 5.1 speaker setup IT ROCKS!

I have two iRivers my best being an H340, I listen to it with a pair of Grado SR80s at home and a pair of Sony Fontopias for listening outdoors.

Oh and my hifi system isnt bad either.

Oh and I have a Sony Ericsson P910i, does that count? It plays mp3s.
 
Are SR80's any good? I might get a pair.
 
Right now I'm listenning to music on my Alpine CDA-9815 head unit, 2005 Alpine 6.5 component speakers (350watt), 2005 Alpine 6x9's (275watt), with an Alpine 400 watt (rms) amp running the speakers... Best sound clarity ever... It has so much bass with this system, I don't really see much of a need for a subb... Did I mention the sound clarity is amazing... Well, I'll say it again... THE SOUND CLARITY IS FREAKING AMAZING!!!...

At home I listen to music on my PC with Creative labs 5.1 suround sound system (200watts)... Sounds pretty good... Although not as good as my car stereo...

Logitech Z560s or Sennheiser RS100s (cheap wireless headphones).

The Z560s are very impressive for a 4.1 set. More powerful than I'll ever really need (188W RMS for the sub and 53W RMS per satellite), the highest I've ever had them up before is about 3/4 (at which point a number of things were vibrating), and also great sound quality.

The RS100s were fairly cheap, so I didn't expect much, but I've been very impressed by them. Good sound quality and great range for the transmitter. Only con is they seem to eat batteries.

Sounds like a cool set up, Delphic Reason, how's the sound clarity?

I'm assuming you're talking about my PC setup, since I already mentioned the car audio clarity (AMAZING!)... The sound clarity on my PC setup is great, but it just can't touch the level that Alpine is able to produce... I've had a lot of car audio systems, and the Alpine CDA-9815, 9833, 9835, 9853, and 9855 have unrivaled sound quality... All 5 units have the same tuning options, and use the patented 60watt x 4 V-power amplifier (27w x4 RMS), which is plenty of power if you are just running door and deck speakers... I have the component speakers (6.5" door, and 1.5" tweaters in the pillars) in front though, so I needed a bit more juice...

I was actually just leaving the door open for you to jump in again and tell us of the sound quality in your car ;)

I hate you. What sound card do you have?

I'm using Logitech Z-5300e's with my X-Fi XtremeMusic sound card. It sounds much better than with the integrated sound card. My roommate has a Klipsh Promedia Ultra 5.1 500W system through a crap laptop sound card, and my system sounds much better. His is just louder.
 
I have a 20gb 4th gen ipod with Sony MDREX71SL in-ear type earbuds.
as of now, i got 1516 songs on it using up 6.71GB


either that or on my comp which is hooked up to a mini hi-fi system and using itunes
 
This in my room, I run my computers audio through it:

Sennheiser HD497 Headphones, iAudio U2 512MB mp3 player (great player!) and some in-ear headphones.

Sadly I don't have a good soundcard yet. :( I have a "Thundering Audio 5.1 sound card" that I had in my old PC that I have yet to transfer into the new one, but I don't think it offers much difference.
 
I got a creative subwoofer with 2 satellite speakers that I listen to with Itunes.. but now I am listening through my logitec Microphone headset.
 
Just my Mac laptop or PC desktop, with Logitech speakers, or headphones. I have a mid-range hi-fi but don't use it (CDs are annoying, plus its in the wrong room).

I want a nice valve hi-fi though, so I'm saving up. I like a nice mellow kind of sound, not like the sharp shrill sound of most modern hi-fis. Damn those MP3s being really convenient, yet sounding terrible. :lol:

I'm still waiting for the digital music revolution to actually start sounding good. Compression is yuck.

Other than that, I prefer actually playing music myself, its WAAY more satisfying. Most of the sound that emantes from my place is in the form of loud electric guitars being played through (mostly) Fender and Marshall valve amps. I would feel sorry for my neighbors, except they're super crazy soccer hooligans.

I have that deck too, and I like it very much...very blue 👍

Then I have Alpine type X's all around and two 12" type R's in the trunk.

I'll post my home stuff laterz.

I love that deck, its the best one I've ever had in a car.

I like Alpine stuff a lot, it's just expensive.
 
I listen to music on anything I can, from 10w JBL laptop speakers, to our 10,000w P.A. system, I'll listen to music on anything I can.... :)
