    Improved RE0 cable, plug and packing box

    Quote: Originally Posted by Nankai We are using PPE cable for RE0 right now, which is the best material we can find. It is much better than regular PVC cable, and do not have much wind noise as fabric cable. I did some quick research and it seems that PPE is noted for its...

    UE Superfi 4 or Klipsch S4

    I can only comment on the Superfi 4, and although I like mine, I think I have to recommend against them for your music tastes. They're a little light on the bass, which doesn't bother me because I'm really not a basshead, but I'd imagine that you'd want a more bass-heavy sound for hip-hop...

    Yuin PK series recabling?

    I'm in the same boat as you with my PK2. They haven't quite stopped working yet, but the cable is very stiff and starting to crack, so I've stopped using them. The closest I've managed to come to solving the problem is finding this guide to recabling the PK2. I haven't been brave enough to...

    knife-fi?

    Yow, that's a touch big for an EDC, don't ya think? Although, at least something like that would be hard to lose. I've gone through quite a few of my little knives now because they keep disappearing on me! On that note, does anyone have any thoughts on small, relatively inexpensive pocket...

    What is your EDC(every day carry) flashlight?

    My EDC flashlight is just a little, cheap Fenix E01. Well, it was - I seem to have lost it yesterday. Luckily, I've still got another one put away, and yet another still at my boyfriend's apartment. I like the E01 because it's compact, very durable (Type III hard anodizing - hard to find for...

    Dollars Crashing.

    The Canadian dollar has also been rising quite a bit against the USD over the last few days! I'm pleased; I wasn't happy about the decline in my cross-border purchasing power. It's still much lower than it used to be, but it's getting better!

    YOUNG PEOPLE (13>22): how young are you anyway?? (part 1)

    Older than I used to be... and maybe older than I'd like to be, too. But still young enough for this poll! 21.

    My Amp is an explosive..really?

    Whenever I fly with my headphone amp, they invariably check my bag for explosives (which seems like a reasonable precaution to me), but I've never been given any trouble over it. Of course, that's only my experience for security at Canadian airports, and once in Mexico.

    UE Attenuator Impedence?

    Well, for what it's worth, the resistance of the attenuator that came with my Super.fi 4 is about 115 Ohms, assuming I measured it right.

    Durable replacement for Pk3

    Sorry to hear about your PK3. They're a great set of earbuds; it's a shame Yuin went cheap on the cable like that. My PK2 are headed the same way. I plan to try to recable them when the cord goes completely. If you're after something for the gym, maybe take a look at the Sennheiser MX70...

    Post the last thing you bought. Oh fun!

    Just picked up a 350VA APC UPS for $30.00 CAD at the Futureshop... great deal! I've never seen one that low before, and I've been after one since I put my little desktop machine together. It's not much, but it should be plenty for my computer to weather brownouts and let me save things when the...
