How to make headphones looser

i wouldnt give up on the 280's yet. i have a pair and, yes, they were a bit snug at first but give them some time and i think you wont have a problem anymore. i never did any stretching besides just wearing them, and within 2 weeks or so they were fine -- also about the amount of time it took...

I <3 Monoprice

absolutely. i picked up 6 foot optical cable, 100 ft of 12 gauge wire, and a buncha connectors all for less than the cost of one of the Monster Nitrogen Infused Gold Plated Lava Forged Virgin Blessed optical cables at best buy.

You are given 1700.00 dollars to buy a TV...

dolby digital/dts with 4 speakers?

I currently have a 4.1 setup, with 2 front, 2 rear and a subwoofer (no center). If I play a dolby digital or dts 5.1 track, and my receiver knows that I do not have a center channel, does it compensate and mix the center track to the two fronts, or is that channel just lost? thanks.
