I didn't say Koss was quality, what they are is not a fad brand so you get what you pay for with them and are not paying for a brand/marketing name on top of a crap pair. So a $20 pair of koss is a $20 pair, where a $50 pair of skull candy is a $5 pair with a fancy brand on top of it. koss just happens to be the brand that I have which fits fine. My other set are the ones that came with my work blackberry, they fit fine and work fine too as well as whatever brand the casette adapter was that I stuck in my truck radio (pulled the faceplate off the radio to feed the wire in behind it so I can't eject it to see the brand. Now the $2 extension I bought from ebay fits a little loose.
/OT your expensive system, can you hear a quility difference between mp3 and a cd or something encoded in a loseless format like flac? I have a decent sound system at home, nothing as fancy as what you have but I wonder if the small loss of an mp3 is now noticeable. I actaully ordered a CD for the first time in a while so I could rip it myself and play the mp3 and cd right after each other and see if I can tell the difference, if so then I'm going back to cd's and will start ripping them myself into a lossless format.
