Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.
This is driving me nuts. I just got a new 160GB classic in today and am trying to put it in DFU mode. Plug it in, close down iTunes, kill all Apple processes, iPod screen shows "Connect, please eject before disconnecting." Hold Menu and Select.. iPod does it's little reboot to the apple logo and...- widds2v

FiiO Mont Blanc/E12 portable headphone amp, 880mW, slim design, full metal case. Bass boost and Cross feed!
No it's definitely defective. Sending it back to Headroom.. they gave me a shipping label to send it back. It holds zero charge. I can leave it plugged in for six hours, unplug it and it wont turn on.- widds2v

I think I may have gotten a bad unit... which I hate because it completely ruins a brand for me heh. Got the E12 in today, first I brought it over to my PC and plugged the included charging cable into my USB and proceeded to charge it. Light goes red on the battery indicator, starts pulsing...- widds2v

STOP TELLING PEOPLE YOU CAN'T TELL 192AAC VS LOSSLESS ILL PROVE IT
Definitely all depends on your equipment, what the music is you're listening to, etc. If you have a $2,000 source, listening analytically to a song with $500+ headphones, then sure lossless is going to be quite obvious of a difference versus a lossy encode. Enjoying Rock out of an iPod even with...- widds2v

Time to move on from E5s
I've had my Shure E5's since.. march 2004 or so & they've been with me in all kinds of environments around the world in my travels in the military... from Dubai to China and everywhere in between. They are defiantly worn out now, the cables at the buds themselves are starting to fray out, wire...- widds2v

IEM's and Portables - Lossless is NOT overkill!
1) sound quality between lossless & high bitrate mp3's is subjective 2) everyones ears are different I personally with my E5s can tell a minute difference between lossless and lame aps. Since it only happens in maybe 15-20% of my songs, and I only have a 20gb DAP, it's not worth for me to...- widds2v

What's Up with the "Slow-Posters"?
i usually only post "productive" posts which is why mine is so low. a lot of people post in every thread with 3 word comments that 400 people before them made the same comment. or they post in every thread about the same thing. pretty pointless imo~- widds2v

Why block the asking price when phones are sold?
SOLD so why not do that ^^ at the very top of the post. Maybe we could have some anon database of sale transactions that just lists a price, not who sold it. So people who are interested in an item could get a general rough idea of how much something costs, to see if it's within reach.- widds2v

behind the nickname
Mines pretty dumb >< Widds is short for Widdles, which was the name of my character in Dark Age of Camelot... Widdles Wabbit was a huge firbolg druid, and the name came from Little Rabbit. How I came up with that no idea just popped into my head. To shorten the name up for irc & forums I...- widds2v

Why block the asking price when phones are sold?
It annoys me as well. 99% of the time, the sale is going to remain anon unless there is only one poster in the thread, even then it's not guarenteed that someone didn't just send a PM to the seller and not make a post about it in the sale thread. Countless times I've wanted to see what...- widds2v

The Irony of Calling iPod Users "Sheep"
actually as a member of this community I would consider you a sheep if you owned anything other than an ipod. how many people bought the x5 only on the basis it wasnt an ipod? how many people own the iriver hxxx series only because it's not an ipod? you can knock apple all day long at lack of...- widds2v

er-4p bass
ER4P bass is very detailed & precise like scubasteve said. If you're looking for any "amount" of bass though... it's non-existant. They have about as much bass as my MX500s did. E5s put them to shame in the amount category, although if I could have the precision of the ER4 mixed with the impact...- widds2v

50ft "radio shack" mini to rca cable
I dont need it that length, thats just all the store here had. Was just wondering if that length could be the primary reason why the amp sounds bad, because I dont want to go invest in RCA to mini cables (which this is the only amp I have that uses) if the sound isnt going to improve. So far it... -
50ft "radio shack" mini to rca cable
Would a cable this length plus low build quality make a an amplifier sound like crap? I bought it because I couldnt wait to get cables made and I wanted to hear it, but it sounds awful. Now before I go investing $100+ in cables, was it the radio shack cable making the amp sound like crap? Or the...- widds2v

New Pocket Reference is Close
They sell these ipod-dock to dual male rca cables here at our NEX. They're professionally done (look just like apple cables) so you could use that and it would probably act as a line out straight to RCA. Hopefully this PR is small enough to go in the pocket. My v2 PR is more of a transportable...- widds2v

M$ XBucks 360 Price Announced...
There was an article a week or two ago saying they would put out a HD-DVD version next year. It'll probably release around the same price as PS3 (or $399?) and they'll drop the prices of these current-gen x360 (price gouging early sales). I had also read that games were gonna be upto $59.99...- widds2v
