My first post here at good ol' Head-Fi in many years and unfortunately I must be bearer of some potential bad news.   A customer alerted me that the TH-600 was missing from the Fostex website, wanted to know what the deal is. After a few phone calls, here's what we know.   I had a chat with...

My first post here at good ol' Head-Fi in many years and unfortunately I must be bearer of some bad news.   A customer alerted me that the TH-600 was missing from the Fostex website, wanted to know what the deal is. After a few phone calls, here's what we know.

One of my all-time desert island discs. Jumped on the new DE version the instant I found out about it. After long pre-order, it finally arrived. As much as I'm mildly interested in the extras, main draw for me was the hope that it had been remastered. Why remaster such a recent CD? LOUDNESS...

Any recommendations? Thanks!

OK, here's the drill. From the ages of 17-21, if you are lucky enough to be exposed to the music of The Doors within this window, they will have their most profound and penetrating impact on you, reaching deep into your psyche and leaving a scar (especially if you are a male). This stuff will...

Wow. I've been so busy lately, I had to save this one a while until I had time to fully devote to it. It was well worth the wait. Always loved her and this album, and it's never been remastered since first put out on CD way back in 1984. If you don't know Mo-Fi, they are an audiophile label that...

"Bits iz bits" and "all digital is the same" folks need not qualify. Go away and be miserable with your crappy CD-ROM drives and Ipods. What's a SHM-CD? Quote: The high quality SHM-CD (Super High Material CD) format features enhanced audio quality through the use of a special...

Yeah, they're all the same, bits are bits, digital is digital, blah, blah blah. There I said it already, now the usual suspects don't have to. If you want to discuss how many electrons can dance on the head of a cable, I refer you to the skeptics forum. Go argue there. If you are looking for...

Johnny Marr- so much to answer for. Just the latest in a long long line of original artists mistakenly entrusted with the precious master tapes of their glory years, only to completely miss the point of their own legacy and utterly butcher the result. Any time you read in the liner notes...

All I care about is sound quality. I currently have an older Nano and all I download to it is .wav files. Full-range, full-rez. No compression. All the music comes from me and my computer, I'm not downloading from another source. The only thing I will use the device for is listening to music...

They will be powered by a new iPod Nano. It's been a while since I looked at this category, But 2 years ago, the K81DJ was the thing, cheap, great sound, even though it had a cord that was way too long. I was an early champion of this phone, great for the price. However, K81DJ was also not...

Several months ago, I came here and asked about universal remotes under $150, ended up with the Logitech Harmony One. Not blaming anyone, a likely suggestion at that range. It looked good on paper, looked nice in person, but sucked ass in performance in so many ways, it would take an hour to...

Introducing Lawton Audio-- World-Class Headphones and More Greetings, We are pleased to announce the launch of our new website, www.lawtonaudio.com Formerly "markl Mods", we are now an international team of headphone enthusiasts united in the quest to provide a superior listening...

Help! I'm looking for some (hopefully inexpensive) software that will easily allow a rank amateur newbie first-timer create a credible-looking website. That means no HTML, coding or anything other than simple, intuitive WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop, point-and-click operations. However, I do...

Any recommendations, let's say staying under $120.

I finally got an HDTV and I have some questions. I have the box from the cable company that provides the cable and HD channels. My TV is the latest and greatest Samsung top-of-the-line 40 inch. It has several HDMI inputs. The cable company gave me a package of wires to hook the box up...

A Balanced vs. Single-Ended Experiment Because I had owned the Sony R10 for years and years, going balanced was never really a feasible option (sending an irreplaceable phone like that out for surgery, no matter how minor, would give anyone pause for thought). But now that I use a more...

MD5000 Deluxe Edition & MD2000 Deluxe Edition Since introducing the original "markl mod" for the Denon D5000 and D2000, I have received numerous requests to provide a re-cabling service for these wonderful headphones. The problem was that I had a very hard time finding a cable that I felt...

He keeps on keepin' on, and good for him (and us). Ex-genius songwriter extraordinaire for the late lamented Soul Coughing, he continues to plow the same basic field he cleared with that band. This is a fun, up-beat collection of mildly funky songs-ah, from Mike, who continues to stretch...

After 25 years of shaving, I've decided I'm just going to stop. I've had enough. That's right, no more shaving away the potential scruff/fuzz that might grow up to be a proper full-fledged beard. Will it be full and thick? Or, will it be thin and fuzzy? What color will it be? Like...

How do they do it? Here we go again. They don't get no respect currently for reasons that elude me (a British thing, surely). Maybe they came out during Brit-pop's first flowering, so now they must surely be kinda "retro"? Yet, here we have one of brit-pop's few long-lasting bands, still...

I got this from Netflix. I'm a loooooong-term JD fan. I've read Deborah's book on which this film is based, and a few more on the band, as well as countless articles. I've always loved Anton Corbijn's iconic photos of the band as well as his other work with bands like Depeche Mode. He...

What do ya know, the damn thing works! I've been using this disc on my personal pair of mod-ed Denon D5000s for some days now, and I'm pretty happy with the result. This was a new pair that has been re-cabled. I had about 50 hours of "regular" burn-in on them (normal CDs, played at loud...

Hey guys, can someone go into more detail about how the W5000 pads "pull right off"? Mine don't seem to do that, in fact they seem quite stubborn. I don't want to break the headphones trying to get them off. What's the secret here? I see they sort of rotate, is there a certain position they need...
