So Gizmodo posted about a guy making Bose into Beats.. pretty funny,    So apparently Bose is no longer cool, but he does agree that Beats sounded terrible.   Original article: [Gizmodo]

Just wanted to share what happens to an iPod as pressure builds up upon a few micro tracks that evolve into cracks.. and ends up with a 200 dollar replacement bill from Apple.     This is pretty much when it started to showing real cracks... and.. heres the end result:      ...

Anyone had their hands on one yet? How does it compare to the RX MK2? Is it worth getting at all or better wait for the juicy MK3?   Or they are totally different in all the means and ways?

So I have a bunch of DVD (hundreds actually) and a more humble collection of BluRays, yet this damn tablet only supports a couple of formats.   I have access to both a PC and a MAC, during a One to One one of the Apple Store workers mentioned using Handbrake on my macs.    It does seem...

Hello,   Anyone knows where to get the tiny screws from? I tried a pharmacy, as google suggested but they didn't have screws or eyeglass repair kits, tried another one no luck.   Looked at Source (Circuit City) they don't have em either, I guess some home improvement stores, but I don't...

Hello,    Terrible news for me - the Alo RX MK2 amp stopped controling volume, it is now pernamently set to the "ground" level, and is hardly heard when the amp is on.   It was purchased October 2011, but I could not find anything about warranty on ALOs website, but I assume it should be...

I currently have the Sennheiser HD800 SXC 18awg 4 ft. 1/4 inch termination cable from ALO for my MK2/CLAS portable rig, and I am curious if it will be possible to re-terminate this cable for the balance mini connector when the RX MK3 hits the shelves. Otherwise the cable is to short for normal...

I always have a problem with this - sometimes I look for reviews online, but it is beyond rare that the actually quality of the mastering is discussed (especially with the modern music).    At times some of the CD's are available on torrents, such as PirateBay, but it is also rather rare (if...

Not so sure where to place this thread.. and not too sure if this is full size or portable. I would consider it portable?    Well anyways...   I was looking for a all in one solution for a bedroom, and this seems pretty interesting. I have read a few reviews, but Im curious if anyone...

... If your already late for your flight.   I learned my lesson, steel toed boots and a portable headphone rig wont make your journey to the boarding gate any faster. In fact you will have a pleasant company of the local security squad. A warm and welcome pat down, some strange machine that...

I am tired dragging my amps from country house to apartment to office to god knows where. I think I should finally invest into a secondary full-size amp for my little HD's. What amp would you recommend?    I had a lake people violectric one before as a side amp before I sold it, so I want to...

  Shipment 1 of 1 Shipped Delivery Estimate: November 29, 2011 Track your package Return Items Leave Packaging Feedback   So I have this screen, and if I click on the "Track your package" I get this window     The item is not in my mailbox, I live in a huge...

For a USB dac, there are two options:   1. 16 Bit / 48 kHz   2. 24 Bit / 96 kHz   I believe there is not that much content available for my Mac to benefit from the 24/96.   For computer audio is there a real point paying that extra 50 euro, or should I just save it?   There...

Hello,   I found my Icon 2 that I have not been using for some time now, I am curious can it be used as a DAC only?    I want to use it with my Mac and a amp. So Mac -> Icon2 -> Amp.   Is that possible? I know its a stupid question =(

Really? I mean really?   First refresh around 2 mins into the deal:   3 mins into the deal:     Amazing!

So after selling of some stuff I got around $8-9k to blow, I was thinking about the Stax 009 with... (not yet sure, I have asked to audition a few amps, including the Blue Hawaii). Thing is I do not have any "good" dacs, cables or sources - since I sold most of what I have had.   Is it worth...

  Hello Head-fiers   Im not sure if this was covered or not, maybe my search skills are slacking, as always... BUT!   I had a friend who noticed me having to turn on my iPod to change song during shuffle mode a few times, and since I am using an amplifier with LOD - my volume buttons...

Did not see this getting posted? Maybe I am bad with the search function   http://www.colorware.com/p-289-sennheiser-hd-800.aspx   $300 US only... why no Canada love? Curious if they would do it with a pair that has a scratch or two (well not scratch, paint fell off).     All...

Now what should I get myself.. hmm...    Cake is always an option, but what about some audio gadgetry or headphones?   Hmm I sure do need a new headphone stand too.    Maybe save up and pre order the LCD3?    Oh well guess il go with the cake first, and think about headphones...

I have dropped the MK2 and got a large dent in the case, I have tried to email ALO, but with all this CAM JAM going on I doubt I will get an answer anytime soon. Anyone had experience with a replacement aluminum box thingy? How much did it cost you?   Best regards,   Alex

I got this CD as a gift, I was told it is incredible and all, but could not find much info online. Does anyone have it? Is it really that good?  

Plugged in my iPod, couldn't hear music, unplugged the LOD and plugged it in again - said something like not compatible or non identified accessories?   Anyone had anything like that? 

There is still no pricing on the iPhone 4S, but for the 8 gb version. The prices on the iPod went down a bit...   I would assume that the price of both items is mostly about the storage, but it seems the iPhone has much more to offer apart from that. It seems to dwarf the iPod touch too.  ...

  Hello Dear Head-FIers.   I have the CLAS and I guess I like it for portable use.. but it does not work with Mac's and I need a DAC to go around with my Macbook Air.   I just got a Apogee ONE from apple, and I am curious can I use an external amp with it and use it just as a DAC?  ...
