What's the difference between this and the 882i in terms of sound quality? I understand that the 882i has xlr ins and outs; what about sound quality?

An 882i is the same as a 482i, except the 882i has balanced jacks - meant for DJs and sound engineers, not musicians.

Excellent! Theirs a button you can push to see the difference between the bbe and flat, You'll like it

Thanks for the question. The 882i has 23 dbU of headroom while the 482i has 18dBu, but I don't believe there is a difference in sound quality.

3602 is good but definitely 3908. I own both first having the 3602 then upgrading to the 3908 and they both were the money! Great sound range on the 3908 and it can get really loud

I have another XLR cable that goes to my interface (a gizmo that has six ins and outs both XLR and standard instrument "phone" jacks). To hook that interface up to the computer there is a Firewire cable. It has a Firewire plug on both ends. There is no such animal as a XLR to USB or Firewire. The XLR is a patch cord while USB (or Firewire) carry power and data. My interface is called a Presonus Firebox. I've had it a long time and it works pretty well. Line 6 has some good interfaces too. I am really liking that Behringer pre amp. It's well worth the $50

Do not notice any difference with the audio output. Using generic headphones, I am quite happy with the audio output. Using the built-in speakers of my speakers of my HP 2010i monitor, I am very happy with the sound. Not bass heavy at all.

The xls is a line up in quality. Some of them have double woofers. I think they put more money into the tweeter/ horn too. I don't own one. This product has spectacular clarity, volume and clarity for the price. It's can be little bass heavy if there is no equalizer. If you can afford the xls, it's probably better for the highs.

The headphones are Model sr325i. I think the "i" is for a slightly later and improved model. I will say that these headphones have exceeded all my expectations. Money well spent! I expect to enjoy them for many years to come. Many have said they are uncomfortable, but I find them very comfortable. My music never sounded better. I hear things I never heard before, even on records I have listened to for years.

Thanks for your question. They both have great bass, the 88 has more articulate bass. They are wonderful sounding headphones.

Hello there. I got this one to replace an old model. I am a full time musician and I use this device as practice tool and a demo recording device. You'd even record complex 8 track pieces if you'd use it with Amplitube's studio for an iPad.It sounds great for a tiny and fairly in expensive sound device like this.I would suggest you to go for a newer model though.It will cost you about 40$ more but it has Midi and other features, I would go for it myself if I wouldn't have this one.P.S. The only minus of these devises compare to they cheaper predecessor is that you can't change your iPhone or an iPad while recording or practicing. Keep in mind that the apps for these devices are power consuming. Hope it helps. Hello there. I got this one to replace an old model.

Jazz, blues, and music with guitars featured sound fantastic on these headphones. These headphones were actually designed with jazz music in mind. Crystal clear and great separation of the instruments.As for how they sound compared to the sr325i, I cannot answer that, as I have not heard them myself. However, most say that the difference between the two is very minimal. The 325's may have slightly more bass and be ever-so-slightly clearer. Most would say the 225i is the best value, because they don't think the difference between the 325i and 225i is worth the difference in price.

Hi Gia, the iRig Pre only has a XLR input. It works on my iPad 2 and quality is amazing. Used it in Nanostudio, Multitrack DAW, Music Studio 2 and Vio.

The answer is yes; relatively. The 882i is an excellent tool, I've had it for years now, and it makes my set-up sound bigger (and sharper) than it really is. The low boost really sets your subs free!

Unfortunately I don't have much information to help because I'm considering the purchase of the same system. Has your impression changed much from the original post? I enjoy classical music but don't know much about different audio outputs and quality differentiators. Is there a better system at a similar price that you know of? Thanks for any additional thoughts.

Hi M., sorry I didn't get right back to you...Yes, I'm surprised that people aren't commenting. Sound is not an insignificant element! Soooo... Does the 210 sound more "lively" and "present"... more Sony-like!? :-) If so, I certainly should have bought THAT one recently when I went to Sangean (El Monte, CA) distribution and swapped 400's, after I lost FM reception on my old one!Thanks,Alan

I haven't tested out the sr225i's. The sr125i's are by far the best headphones that I have owned. They have an amazing frequency range. I listen to a lot of rock and metal and these are perfect for that type of music. I hope this helps!

These monitors are passive (require amplifier) and have 'banana plugs' and 'raw wire' connections. Sorry, I know nothing about scarlett 2i2. Best wishes.

I agree that no XLR out is odd but I just patched around that. Not sure about the 1086 comparison. Never used one. I bought it for narration purposes and its gating capabilities so limiting is something I add in post production. For the money, it's a bargain. If you want to spend some bucks though, Aphex Channel Master is much more versatile. Hope that helps.

The BBE 882i will greatly improve your sound quality. If your system is for music, then the sonic maximizer is the way to go. For voice only you should hear some improvement.
