Hey ive noticed since i got my RA-1 a few weeks ago that there was always a slight hum. today i got the idea it might be the batteries that i was using (energizer) so i replaced them with duracells and suddenly the hum was gone. just thought id post incase anyone else had the same problem. now...

My money is on the Devils and has been since before the playoffs started, Brodeur is just plain amazing and is definitely my favorite player in the league. Any one else here watch hockey? Devils or Ducks? The one thing i really dont want to here is "I want the Ducks to win because no one thought...

Hey im awaiting the arrival of my iPod and ripping all my CDs to high quality MP3 via EAC and LAME, ive done about 10-15 so far and MOST have worked. When i tried to do it to Linkin Park - Meteora and Foo fighters - One by one its randomly frozen about half way through and ive had to force quit...

Alright i think im coming to the reality that i just dont have enough money for used RS-1's. I already bought an RA-1 and its on the way and im wondering what the closest would be to the RS-1s that are less and would work with the RA-1? thanks chris

Hey im lookin to upgrade to a pair of RS-?s because i just bought a RA-1 and i love the RS-1s sound. Now the question how much different are these two phones, i really dont think i have enough money to buy used RS-1s, ill barely have enough to buy used RS-2s for a good price. Im hoping some...

To me it seems like people like the brand that they like and basically nothing else. Im wondering if the brand you prefer has an effect on the first high-end headphones youve used for a long time. For example I used my Grado SR-60's for about a year for my first hi-end headphone and I LOVE the...

I got DDRMAX (the dance dance revolution game for the PS2) and a pad today from my local EB, im bad but im so addicted. I HIGHLY suggest everyone goes to an arcade and play this it is such a great game (as long as you dont easily become embarrassed). a bunch of my friends started playing it...

Before i say anything DO NOT SAY IPOD. MP3 is compressed and is a very lossy format do not pretend that it is the best sounding. I know that almost all PCDP players out are garbage with few exceptions (both slimXs and a few others). But i just noticed i know nothing about MD. Is it at all lossy...
