Oh my god, those are amazing. How have I not seen these before?! *checks price* Oh. Quote:    

Haha :)   I wear MEElectronics M6's to bed. They wrap around the back of your ears, don't fall out, are comfortable and have awesome isolation.

I was never really a fan of any one singer until Eddie Vedder went solo. I don't know why. I think once removed from Pearl Jam, his stuff really clicked with me. First, Into The Wild hit shelves and now there's a solo album (Ukulele Songs?) on the horizon. Maybe it's the heavy drinking but man...

009 Sound System - Self Titled (2009) (Last.fm, Amazon)   Kind of interesting ATB/Eric Prydz-ish. Atmospheric, trancy pop stuff. It's not half bad. Could totally get fatiguing after awhile though. About four tracks in right now. We'll see where this goes. ;)

Welp, Mezzanine was covered pretty quickly. So, I'd say:   Eddie Vedder - Into The Wild (Soundtrack) (I will admit that I do skip track 9, "The Wolf", though - but as a whole the album is wonderful... vocals, instruments, everything)   I'd also like to throw this one out there, but I...

I've been really enjoying Daft Punk's Tron Legacy OST - and now apparently there is an album of remixed coming out, "R3C0NF1GUR3D".   Tracklisting: The Glitch Mob - "Derezzed" M83 VS Big Black Delta - "Fall" The Crystal Method - "The Grid" Teddybears - "Adagio for Tron" Ki:Theory -...

I do my own rips. I was a fan of properly ripped VBR MP3's for a long time, and have recently moved to FLAC now that I have the storage space.   If you are at a major university or college, your library probably has access to Inter-Library Loan (ILL) and WorldCat, through which (as a student...

I finally got around to ordering the Book of Eli soundtrack that Atticus Ross did. Soon as it's done being encoded to FLAC, that's what I will be listening to this afternoon. Atmospheric industrial/electronic, lots of ambient and post-rock influences with a dark, gritty edge. Like it a lot.

I was looking around for a set of monitors or bookshelf speakers and a DAC or receiver to go with them, and I came across two Behringer models: the MS20 and the MS40. They're nearfield monitors with 24bit/192khz DACs, coax and optical inputs, etc. For $180 a pair, the MS40's don't look half...

Thanks, Crystal. I was concerned about driving a pair of K240's (55 ohm) and my roommate's HD650's (~300). This should work out great. How do those M-Audio monitors sound? The description of "Professional Desktop Multimedia Audio Monitors" has me a little worried.

Off-topic a bit, but why are you running a 64-bit OS?

I noticed this with my first pair of 590's. The right was quieter. For awhile I simply adjusted the balance to compensate for it. I contacted Sennheiser and had them replaced a few weeks later under warranty.

First, are you driving headphones with it? If you are, what impedance are they? Second, can any of you suggest studio monitors or bookshelf speakers that can be driven directly from the 0404? I haven't enough room for a stereo reciever.
