    Review by 'dougmwpsu' on item 'Knowledge Zenith ZS5'

    Bought a pair of second generation ZS5s with 2 BAs in the tip. Read so many positive reviews and wanted to see how they compared to the urbanfun hybrids, which I enjoy a lot. I read a few reports of overstated highs and sibilance, but figured a few people were just being sensitive. I found...

    Best bang/buck headphones for under 50$?

    Do the KSC75's they sell today still have the amazing sound quality of the ones from a few years ago? I need to replace a pair. Anyone had any direct experience with new pairs recently?

    Earwax-Fi

    Over the weekend I lost most of my hearing in one ear due to earwax buildup. For reference, I am 25. Today I went to the ear doctor to have him vacuum out both my ears with a tiny straw and a microscope. It was Awesome   Now, not only is my hearing back to where it was before, it's improved...

    Koss KSC 75 ( worlds best valued headphone)

    Koss KSC 75 ( worlds best valued headphone)

    I'll say something bad: I keep having to replace them after they fall apart with heavy abuse. Oh well.. they are $12. I actually just came here before buying pair #4, just to make sure nothing better came out over the past few years. Looks like Koss is still king!

    Anyone used a MacBook C2Duo to play video games?

    I just bought a macbook. the integrated graphics are weak, but not a total waste. so far i've successfully played Homeworld 2 and Vice City. I've heard that source based games will play fine with the settings low. Honestly though, this is not a gaming laptop. a discrete graphics card is the...

    New Radiohead On October 10th

    How about you just download it for free now, then pay for it later when you have access to a credit card? i paid nothing to download it the first time, and after giving it a first listen, i'm ready to buy it again and throw them a few bucks. Quote: Originally Posted by fraseyboy...

    I've had the same issue with the silverstone that i've been running for about a year now. i've noticed that the noise level seems to be caused by my motherboard's usb system, as when i replaced the motherboard for testing pourposes one time, the eb01 got very quiet. can anyone reccmend a good...

    Portapro re-solder?

    Today in class i was an idiot and caught my Porta Pro cable against a chair as i was rushing to turn in a quiz late. it broke past the y junction, so only one of the earpeices is disconnected. i stripped down the severed cable midsection, but the 2 wires, (gold and red) won't reconnect. i'm not...

    Remembering discovery of a lifetime

    Patrick, consider the possability that you are looking for your enlightenment in the wrong place. dreams and drugs are dangerous places to go for our big anwsers. we are far too vulrenable in those states for our experiences in them to be very trustworthy and dreams can often play us for the...

    Sci-fi channel cancels Stargate SG1

    Good riddance! I watched sg-1 for years until its quality degraded to the point where I just couldn’t justify watching it anymore. For me it jumped the shark when Daniel died the first time. Now I’m just curious how they’ll finish the whole thing off. Sg-1 had the biggest clusterfrick of a...

    Head-Fi Wiki

    well jim, i put up a head-fi wiki over 2 weeks ago, and since then only one other person besides myself has contributed to it. i think that the inactivity speaks louder than words. http://doug.beejspot.com/wiki if you still think it's a great idea, then go ahead and start writing some...

    The forum is dead. Long live the forum!

    Wow, this thread has grown! I really didn’t mean to set off a debate on the merits of forum censorship or declare my formal exit from the land of head-fi. I was just looking for some good site recommendations where I could take my sociopolitical windbagging. But, since we’re on the...

    The forum is dead. Long live the forum!

    okok, so ultimatly I too understand the need to limit head-fi's discussion topics, in fact, i believe that it's the careful moderation in this area that keeps everything so happy round these parts. the point is just this: i need a new home home on the web, where the intellectuals and...

    The forum is dead. Long live the forum!

    For awhile now, I’ve been coming by head-fi less and less. My headphone setup has more or less stabilized and I’ve had less motivation to sit down and actually discuss audio. As such, I’ve been spending more and more time in the member’s lounge just chit chatting. However, the limitations of the...

    Head-fi wiki, contribute today!

    I just set up a wiki on my personal webhost. there has been some talk about creating a head-fi wiki, and i think that this would be a good test to see if people would use it. if this gets popular i pledge to turn all the database files over to the admins. also if anyone want an admin account...

    Head-Fi Wiki

    there hasn't been much movement on all this.. so instead of just sitting around i thought i might try setting up the wiki on my own hosting and seeing if people edited it. if it started to pick up popularity i could turn over the database files to whoever's in charge here. any reason not to give...
