[QUOTE="Kaioshoryuken1, post: 1366300, member: 229669"] One more question though - (thanks again!) If I buy much higher quality headphones,[B] wouldn't I still need a high bitrate track because I would be hearing the imperfections and low quality-ness of a lower quality file, say 128k? [/B]For example, like playing a standard video quality video game on a high definition television. The TV is better, and the video quality looks poorer. I understand what you were trying to say that by using my headphones, I am compensating for a lack of quality in the headphones with a higher quality bitrate on my tracks. The main thing that keeps me away from purchasing headphones like Bose and Sennheiser is a) the cost, I'm a poor college student and b) I'm pretty rough with my headphones, though trying to take considerably better care of them now than I did in the past. I try to get some bang for my buck and I want good quality for what I'm paying. That's why I like these Skullcandy Uprock headphones - they're much better than the Sony Fashion Earbuds I was using before, and I wasn't going to pay $60 for a pair of skullcandy headphones. Because I'm prone to destroying headphones, I don't want to throw too much money out on them. [/QUOTE]
