    Let's Discuss Your Raspberry Pi Setups

    Like the title says, I wanted to start a thread discussing Raspberry Pi audio setups. There doesn't seem to be a ton of discussion around here, just a few scattered threads. Hopefully this will change as the Version 2 is now released. I'm new to Linux and not a total computer expert, but I was...

    Torchlight 2: Anyone Else Playing It?

    Anyone else here enjoying Torchlight 2? I was a huge Diablo 2 fan, but just can't get motivated to play Diablo 3 based on lackluster reviews.   I hugely enjoyed the original Torchlight and that enjoyment has carried over to the sequel. Its lots more of a good thing. Already have a Level 30...

    Any Mumford and Sons Fans Here?

    Just received my 180g vinyl edition of Babel that I have been looking forward to for quite some time. I got it a day early too! The new album definitely sounds great and keeps up what made the first one so good.   I am also relieved, the new 180g Glassnote record sounds good. I have a copy...

    How to Recable Yuin PK3's

    Hello all, looking to try my first recabling. I have a pair of Yuin PK3's that I love, however they are a J-Cord. When I got them, Head-Direct didn't have Y-Cords. I considered buying a new pair of PK3's because they now have them in the Y-Cord, but I have read of QC issues with the cords coming...

    As the title reads, I am looking into getting a pair of nice bookshelf speakers for less than $200. I am going to be getting a decent receiver of some make soon, but there are so many options for speakers, I am just looking for recommendations of what people have heard. I am leaning toward a...

    Shirt Clip for PK3's

    Just quick, I have searched and not really found a lot on this topic. I would like a clip (such as the one that came with my X3's or that come with the ER4's) to clip my PK3's onto my shirt while walking. Does anyone have any suggestions of where I can get something decent like this for cheap?

    PA2V2 with HD580's?

    I am just curious if there is anyone out there running a PA2V2 with HD580's who can provide me with some impressions. I have SR-60's now and will likely be using the PA2V2 out of my Zen Vision M and the line out of my Panasonic PCDP (I know it will work well with the Grados), but I have heard...

    Fixing a surged Yamaha RX-V592

    This is a shot in the dark, but I figured I would give it a try. My dad had a Yamaha RX-V592 receiver that worked fine until it was recently fried by an electrical surge due to a lighting strike. I would like to try to fix it, but was wondering where a good place to start would be. I guess what...

    I am interested in recabling my beloved KSC-75's eventually and would like some inspiration. I am curious to see what others have used and what the final results have looked like. Feel free to post what you used and some pictures of the final results. I haven't been able to find one post where...

    Microshar vs PA2V2 vs Go Vibe 6

    Just a quick question, I have seen a lot of threads about these amps but none have answered all my questions. I need a first amp, it will be comming from my Zen Vision M (mini mini for now) and my older pioneer CD player (RCA to mini). My first question is how would an amp like this sound...

    Any Koss A250's Still Around?

    I know I missed the thread on this by over a year, but I can't get over the looks and impressions of the $33 Koss A250's that were on Ebay last year. I would love to get a pair of these because I think they look great, are cheap, and would compliment my Grado SR-60's (in a different sort of...

    PA2V2 Synergy with Grado SR-60's?

    I just got a pair of Grado SR-60's and love them. They sound fantastic, however I have heard that amping them can make them sound a lot better. I use them from my Zen Vision:M and Dell Inspirion laptop. My question is this: is it worth amping them, will it make them sound that much better? I was...

    Anyone Listen To Equation Audio EP.3070's?

    Just curious if anyone has heard these headphones before. I never noticed them on the Equation website before and was looking around for them and found some pretty fantastic prices for them but really no reviews. I know how well received the RP-21's and RP-15's are. I was thinking these would...

    Foobar 2k Lame MP3 Encoding Questions

    I have been using Winamp to encode CD's to Flacs. I decided I wanted to just convert songs to high bit rate Mp3's (320kbs) because that is what my ZVM handles. I have also read that Lame MP3's sound the best. I want to start using Foobar (moving from Itunes and winamp), the problem is that it...

    PA2V2 Questions

    Just curious about the quality and other information regarding the PA2V2. I see them on ebay and was wondering how many people had them. I would be interested in it for driving KSC-75's, Sennheiser HD424's (2000ohms), and Grado SR-60's. I would be using it from my Zen Vision M or Laptop. Just...

    Grado SR-60's vs. Sennheiser HD-424's

    Just wondering from people who have experience. I have a nearly 30 year old pair of Sennheiser HD-424's. I play them on my laptop or Zen Vision M and have some problems with volume not loud enough, it's not terrible but sometimes it is worse than others. I think they sound pretty good for 30...
