    Hey, My dad managed to snap the stem on his UM1s. Is this fixable at home (some crazy glue or epoxy), or does it have to be sent back (approximate price to fix?)? No warranty (bought at the Christmas '05). thanks

    Quick Help with HD580 Cable

    Hey, So here's the thing. I accidently stepped on my cable while lifting my head. Left side plug pops out. Can't shove it back in, so I found the Headphile guide on removing screen and pad. Took that off and I was able to reinsert the plug. Does it matter which way it goes in?

    Monster Equivalent (DIY Instrument Cable)

    Posted on Cable forum, but think I'll get more responses here. So, on Head-Fi Monster cables seem to be the cable equivalent of BOSE headphones on the headphone forum. Does that sound about right? Well, a friend bought a Monster patch cord for guitar and the output was much clearer than the...

    Favorite Movie Scores?

    Just going over my music collection and realized I havn't listened to these in a while. Don't have that many, but I really like the score from "The Rock", and "The Last Samurai" is pretty good too. "World Trade Center" score is pretty good too. Very somber for obvious reasons. Anymore...
