Wired = Copper line (it can minimized possible noise that intefere)
Wireless = No wire (Only possible way to eliminate noise or lower the noise is thru internal DSP like how 503 built)

Wired = Try to maintain unpolluted sound wave
Wireless = Try to eliminate possible noise from polluted sound wave and reproduction of how the sound would be like using technology..

Wired = Landline phone, ur house phone.
Wireless = Mobile phone
Difference? try to make a call to ur overseas fren with both your mobile and your landline, you'll get it...

Basically it's all about, Speed, Reproduction, Pollution, Noise, Sound that used to form a music for both wired and wireless music output
*
Agreed... hmm.gif

Really guys, whatever headphone you use, whatever brand, specs etc., A2DP (or whatever bluetooth variations of) WILL COMPLETELY BUTCHER your SQ (yes, Google will say as such)... So, IMHO, it's worth it for the wireless freedom (just got myself a handy Gigabyte wireless mouse due to this), never for the SQ... hmm.gif

Again, I take that most DSPs on wireless A2DP headies are there to process the noise due to this fact - just to make it bareable, nothing more... hmm.gif

If you want GREAT sounding wireless, get a set using KLEER technology, of which I know only the SleekAudio SA6 Wireless Combo, the Opera what's-it's-name and the Senn something or another... They are crap expensive though (though the SA6s are not bad for a mid-tier wireless IEM solution)... sweat.gif

But again this depends entirely on the source (in this case, the Tube, which again, sounds just fine to my unanalytical ears - I agree it sounds CRAP on flat EQ because it ISN'T really iPod flat... Tweak for best performance)... hmm.gif

the tube can't play FLAC right?

hmmm is AAC better than mp3?

Nope, no FLAC... Not even OGG IINM... sweat.gif

As for AAC, it can be compressed more without losing as much quality (compared to MP3) supposedly, yes... biggrin.gif

I'll just stick to crappy, sempit freq-ranged MP3 (oh the butchered bottom and top end) just for the convenience of not having to REENCODE my ENTIRE library (most of which in MP3, some in FLAC/APE/MPC)... icon_rolleyes.gif

DUH.... j slade u're so cute... haha.... u know usually how much is the price of the equipment they use to play FLAC? at least RM2k Device to play FLAC, and that also that piece of equipment is for MUSIC purpose only.. hahah... that's how FLAC positioned in market HIGHEST QUALITY... lol...

Added on March 21, 2009, 1:15 amoh ya... forget to mention APE... hahah.. good also.. tongue.gif

Lossless is lossless, crap MP3/AAC mana can fight? But same as how VHS (crap quality) won against Betamax (best tape quality), MP3s is everywhere, for some Godforsaken reason... biggrin.gif

I'm just goin' with the flow... brows.gif

Blame Apple for not making the iPod play only FLAC... If so everyone might be sharing FLAC files right now (NOT taking into consideration the fact that the iPod might not even be THAT successful if it didn't play AAC/MP3... Look at what happened to the Sony Walkmans and their ATRAC3? In the end they had to add in native MP3 support asso what?)... sweat.gif

One day, it just simply refuses to hold the charger wire securely (pops out on it's own accord) = cannot charge... Went to BTS NCC and was settled within an hour... biggrin.gif

Mine is not the one at the side of the phone.  My lcd was fading/turning purple so I took it and got it fixed (they replaced it).  Now I am having light leakage at several areas at the top of the phone.  Not very obvious but I am guessing it is cause they did not fix the lcd perfectly.  So the light leak at the side is not something that we want them to fix, might heat up the phone? Cause I was gonna ask them to fix all the light leakage. . .
*
IF the gap is TOO BIG = light leak in broad daylight = NOT GOOD... A little light leak should be acceptable, the heat ventilation thingy I stumbled upon on the Nokia Forums, in the worst case it should be partly true... biggrin.gif

haha i use that quite long, for switch on and off 3G and blue tooth  thumbup.gif

Although it would be cooler if the UTMS/GSM switch can be done through a program, like BTSwitch... Highlighted this over at Symbian-Freaks but nobody really knew how (or was interested to code something of the sort)... sweat.gif

Oh well, am sticking to EDGE data while in Mobile (read: casual walking around surfing = most of the time) mode anyway, only switch to 3G if it's really important that I have the speed (aka, watching FRANCE24 free streaming TV, crap cool!)... sweat.gif

EDGE seems speedy enough for me and keeps the battery from dying TOO quickly... biggrin.gif

If I just use EDGE 2G I will still be able to receive my MMS right? What about video calls? If I disable 3G will people still be able to video call me?

btw if we use a dongle + pro headset.. assume the output is from a good player.. will the SQ affected by the dongle or it will still provide cool SQ through the pro headset ??

I said this once, will say it again... Bluetooth A2DP BUTCHERS sound quality... So it doesn't really matter how good the source or the headphone is... sweat.gif

If you want wireless SQ, at the cost of LOTS OF MONEY, go Google KLEER SA6... biggrin.gif

If you want convenience at the cost of SQ, go bluetooth A2DP wireless... sweat.gif

I'll stick with me wirefull stuff thank you, no have money for the great SA6 kleer... brows.gif

That's prolly on Offline mode... sweat.gif

Longest I can last is 1 day + a bit on normal for music... Having your battery halved after 8 hours sounds OK, try turning off unnessecary programs and running in GSM mode for a little more juice... biggrin.gif

Bro you planning to get a pair of SoundMagic ar? Which one would you recommend ar.. seriously them having so many models makes everything confusing  rclxub.gif

If I can find the spare change, I MIGHT... biggrin.gif

But still, right now I'm more then enjoying my Bijous so maybe not (UNLESS somebody brings in the NuForce NE-7M, in which case I would drop everything and get a pair)... sweat.gif

If they sound LIKE a PL30 + more bass (PLUS they're only 60-70 bucks), why not? Worse comes to the worse they'd make a good backup IEM... biggrin.gif

If you DON'T like bass = PL30 is FINE... biggrin.gif

AND, the Tube is a phone, not really a DAP... Plus the fact that BOSE headies are actually not that good, really... sweat.gif

Gettin a pair myself as backup for me Bijous (also for use full time on my laptop), will be doing a comparison later... biggrin.gif

And no, it doesn't matter if you change sources, just play music on it (and REMEMBER to give it a short rest after say, 4-6 hours? You don't wanna blow your dynamic driver now wouldn't you?)... biggrin.gif

Err  aspire,i saw someone mentioning bout the e5 portable headphone amplifier,but i dont know how to see the specs or to determine wether its good or not,mind sharin ur opinion or advices?? Vry appreciate the helpFiioe5portable headphone
*
WARNING: An e3/e5 does little to extremely efficient (16 ohms - most of the below RM170 headphones, excluding the Head-Direct RE2) gang of IEMs... IT will make them louder a bit, add some hiss (E3, E5 not much of this problem) and (as someone commented) make the sound "deeper" (aka, a bit more bassy and dark)... hmm.gif

Better E5 cause it's more compact, aluminium, AND you can control the volume = control the hiss... biggrin.gif

But E3 is FAR cheaper... Decisions, decisions... brows.gif

@jason110: Can, but it wouldn't change much, the Bijou's already very efficient (it will only make it SLIGHTLY louder, SLIGHTLY deeper/darker AND add a bit of hiss... sweat.gif

God oh god Gravity is AWESOME! If only we can get some of that KINETIC SCROLLING awesomeness everywhere else (ESPECIALLY the browser)... sweat.gif

And after years of failed blogging, Tweeting seems more up my low attention span tastes... Set up shop in both identi.ca (eiraku) and Twitter (eirakkun)...

Plus Gravity might just be the first program I'll ever really buy just for that GUI... biggrin.gif
