    Problem using Asio4All with nuforce udac-2

    Hey guys,   Just received my Udac-2 from debitsohn (thanks again man!) and have hooked it up to my laptop and when trying to use it with Asio4all in Foobar2000 I'm not getting any sound output. I uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin and software and I followed the instructions in the...

    El-P: Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixxx3

    http://www.el-p-weareallgoingtoburninhell.com/   Based on a quick search I know there are at least a few El-P fans on this board and I didn't see a thread about this album already so I figured I'd share. He released this album on Aug 3rd and it's an all instrumental collection of rare and...

    Kind of Bloop: An 8-bit tribute to Miles Davis

    http://kindofbloop.com/   Not sure if this has been posted before. Basically, it's Miles Davis' Kind of Blue album reimagined as 8-bit music (think of the music soundtracks for your old NES, Amiga, C-64 games). It may be considered blasphemous by some, but I have to say that I'm quite...

    I have crossed the threshold.....

    ....and have purchased a home use headphone system. After it was all said and done I ended up with: a Wheatfield HA-1 headphone amp, some Outlaw PCA interconnects, and I will still be using my Etys as headphones with this system. I chose the Wheatfield because it seemed like the best...

    How do Ety ER-4S's sound with a Wheatfield HA-1?

    .....Exactly what the title says I've been considering a new home use amp for a long time and the solo headphone amp just became a dealer item. The more I think about it, the more curious I feel about tube amps. I have become quite attached to the solid state sound, and this Wheatfield amp...

    Anyone hear the new Weezer album?

    It's called Maladroit if you haven't heard already. I bought it recently and I really like it's more rockin edge as compared to the slightly disappointing Green Album. Stand out songs for me include......well......I like most all of them, but the ones that stand out are: American Gigolo...

    What a difference a battery makes.....

    A couple of days ago I finally received my plainview rechargeable 9V's from Thomas Distributing. After waiting the 8+ hours for them to charge I popped one into my CHA 47 and listened. WOW. Practically everything about the sound improved. Bass was more accurate and tighter, freeing up...

    Question about GSP Solo Amp

    I posted this question in the slee solo thread already, but I wanted to make a new thread just in case no one read it there. A moderator can delete this thread as soon as I get an answer..... On the ordering page at the site the 115V model is the one I should order for use in the US right? Am...

    My JMT is malfunctioning

    I was in the library this morning and I was listening to my Sony D-25S with JMT built CHA 47 and my Etys and everything was going fine. Suddenly the LED light on the JMT dims to almost nothing and the sound gets distorted and staticky and muffled and ugly and just plain horrible sounding. Do...

    Thoughts on Kimber PBJ cable

    I've always read that these interconnects are really good for the money and was considering buying them once I got enough money in my checking account (No I WON'T dip into my savings) to afford an MG Head and this cable. Anyone else use or hear this cable or have any opinions on it?

    Need help with Fixup's Ety replacement cord

    It just got here in the mail today. The lack of microphonics is neat, but I just can't get these things to seal properly. I can tell because the sound is much thinner than it was with the stock cord and the isolation isn't even nearly as great. I tried using the twisting motion to go up and...

    Question about Fixup.net Ety replacement cord

    Quick question: If I want fixup.net to replace the cord for me, do I send them my Ety 4p first? Or do I order the replacement and then send it off? How does it work? Has anyone had Xin Feng and Co. handle the switching? Or has everyone just done it themselves. I guess I really have no faith in...

    Sending in Etys for repair, Joining Team Sennheiser, and other questions

    Recently the insulation under the right (red) phone of the Etys has torn and exposed the bare wire underneath. I just sent an email to etymotic.com asking if I could send them in for repair even though I've had them for a while already. Do you guys think Etymotic will repair them for me...

    Question about Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon

    I just bought this album yesterday and it's my first album from these guys. I have to say it's quite fantastic, but at first listen I was weirded out by all the moaning and screaming, especially on the song Brain Damage. I had a question though. One of the reviewers on Epinions had this to...

    Your All-Time Favorite Shoes

    I used to be really into Saucony's and New Balances, but ever since I started wearing Chucks (Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars) I've developed a real liking for the classic styling of this all canvas simple shoe. You can wear it anywhere and it works for a variety of occasions. Any other...

    Glenn Gould's Goldberg Variations

    Anyone else own this incredible cd? I just bought it today based on a recommendation from my music teacher. Man oh man, can this guy play the piano or what? Just one question. Are all the variations here based on the ONE orginal exercise from Bach played at the beginning? Or are there more Bach...

    Anyone Listen to Turntablism?

    Seeing as I remember there being a hip hop music thread on this board a while back, I figured I'd ask whether or not anyone listened to this no-too-often-talked about area of hip hop. I guess I'll start by listing some of my favorites. Invisibl Skratch Piklz (can't mention turntablism and/or...

    How good of an amp should I consider before I get a new source?

    I currently use a CHA 47 with my D-25S and Etys and I was just wondering: How good of an amp should I be considering before I have to go and upgrade my source as well? Will a D-25S sound ok with some of the higher end headroom amps for example? Like the cosmic or supreme etc. I mean, I...

    Ety 4S and Antique Sound MG Head Tube amp

    Anyone have or heard this combo? I'm thinking of upgrading to it for home listening once I have enough money saved up. Are tubes and Etys a good match? Do I have to get some Mini to RCA cable to hook it up? Or is a mini mini fine?

    mini mini cable question

    Just how much of a difference do these things make. I finally got my JMT amp and my Sony D-25S is just sitting there next to it and my Etymotic ER-4Ps (w/ 4S adapter cable) are just waiting to be used, but my mini cable hasn't shipped from Headroom yet. I want to hear how the new combo sounds so...

    My home headphone setup will consist of the following: Sony D-25S pcdp Etymotic ER-4P w/ 4S adapter cable JMT built CHA 47 optimized for use with Etys Markertek mini to mini cable What would be the equivalent of this setup in a main, home based, speaker rig? I was just curious...

    Still waiting for my Ety 4P to 4S adapter cable

    I ordered the cable on Monday January 28th and it's been more than a week now and still no cable. I emailed the guy at fixup.net and he said that he only shipped it the following Friday, which would mean a week ago today. I can't believe that it took them 4 days just to ship a tiny 9 in. cable...

    Markertek cables

    Someone suggested to me that markertek cables were a very nice upgrade from the standard mini to mini cables you can buy elsewhere (like Radio Shack). The ones I am ordering to connect my JMT amp to my Sony D-25S pcdp are the 3.5 mini male to 3.5 mini male markertek cables. Anyone here have...

    What type of bag to use with my portable setup?

    My portable setup will consist of: Sony D-25S pcdp (I know it's not that great for portable use, but it sounds so much BETTER than my current pcdp and it has a line out, and I don't want to spend any more money for ANOTHER pcdp with a line out and anti skip) Etymotic ER-4P w/ 4S conversion...
