Hi I must build up my music collection. Starting with the "popular" genre (classic rock, alternative, etc..50's to today). It's not too difficult to figure out which artists and albums to get going with, BUT....assuming I'm ripping to flac.... 1) how do i find out how many CD masterings...

u definitely want to see them live....best live rock band going? they are for me! cover of California Stars is among my all-time favs.... Quote: Originally Posted by johnwmclean Just had a listen, my first exposure to Wilco.

OK, I see the one on the Y-splitter, but I have no "silver thing" in the box. I also have no receipt since I got it on Ebay (new, not used) from a reputable power seller. All manuals/other papers and accessories were included...nothing suspicious.... Should I be concerned? Thanks for the...

Hi I did a search, but didn't come up with anything. Where is the serial # located on your SE530s??? Trying to register online. Description of serial# states that it is 10 characters. Thanks!

I'm expecting the CD in the mail any day now. Hoping the SQ is solid. I'm confident the work will be excellent!

so i take this to mean that the Fuze volume control will not be functional and that one must only be concerned with the amp volume control? Quote: Originally Posted by pdupiano fixed volume if you update to the latest firmware

what is your source? also, do you use flac? have an amp? Quote: Originally Posted by Eternal187 No I have the Shure SE530 which I use for classical rock but they aren't good with metal hip hop/rap.

hoarding money...now, that's a problem I've NEVER ran into...ask Master Card! Quote: Originally Posted by Bojamijams spending money instead of hoarding it is what will knock it out of the recession

Eternal187 If you are using the cheapest gear available, like the buds that come with "mp3 players", then it won't matter what CODEC you choose. If you have decent IEMs or reference cans, like K701s or, like me, you even use digital files (network music player/music server) for your hi end...

well, i'm trying to come up with some crafty logic, but the truth is that the adapter came attached and i didn't even realize it was an adapter! situation rectified....have a good laugh! and thanks..... ...as for the other poster recommending an external DAC, I don't need any...

anyone else using a network music player? i couldn't live without my Squeezebox Duet.....

at least check out the audioengine2 to see if u can find it for a great price...

so is this the situation? there is no viable option for flac plus digital out (optical or coax)??? Quote: Originally Posted by raymondu999 If only one of these days a company would make a portable DAP with optical out... sigh... and I mean portable ones, not those big PMPs. I'm...

thanks boomy. i should have known to shop there considering I have a headroom amp! so i guess you recommend C3-pro? how would it compare to the Shure SE series? also, wondering if you considered the Squeezebox Duet or Transporter rather than the soundcard of your pc......

Is there a good thread here somewhere to give me a run down of interconnect options for my Fuze --> FiiO E5?? Not looking to spend a bunch, but hoping for a decent upgrade to the one included. Many thanks!
