    Amarra sQ Volume Settings Questions

    I didn't see any dedicated Amarra sQ threads and wasn't sure where else the best place to post this question would be so I figured it would be best to ask it in a new thread.   I've recently been using Tidal via Amarra sQ to my Resonessence Concero HP on my MacBook Air. I thought I understood...

    Low Clamping Force Closed Full-Sized and Shallow Insertion IEM's

    Just as I was debating moving up to a higher end universal IEM my TMJ related jaw and ear problems have flared up again. Basically, my jaw pops in and out, cracks a lot and generally has a dull ache predominately in the left side. I also get pain in my left ear and around the first bend is quite...

    Triple.Fi Replacement Cables?

    Looking for a list and impressions of the various Triple.Fi replacement cables that are available. I have an early Null Audio cable now which sonically I quite like but it is incredibly unwieldy.

    Ear Gels

    I recently purchased a pair of Image X10's and was wondering if there is a way to order extra sets of the ear gels? I understand that they come with a two pair free offer when you register which would probably suffice for myself for quite some time but there are a few other local Head-Fiers who...

    A couple of Klipsch Image X10's questions

    Curiosity killed the cat! I've been debating trying the Klipsch Image X10's for awhile now but cost has been prohibitive, with the sale Soundearphones has on now though the idea is more feasible and tempting. One thing that I'd like to clarify before I even think about ordering I don't think...

    2006 Micro DAC sync problem

    I have the previous 2006 9V version Micro Stack on loan from another local Head-Fier but I've been having some problems with the DAC syncing to my computer via USB using ASIO. Everything seems to work fine initially but after awhile it starts to tick loudly, kind of like a hiccup if you will...

    email notifications not working?

    Earlier today I wasn't having any problem with email notifications to PM's (not sure about subscribed threads at this point) but all of a sudden I'm not getting them, anyone else experiencing this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?

    Question about tips

    Being an IEM guy who uses Shure E500's as his headphone of choice I'm very interested in hearing the new Klipsch earphones. Unfortunately due to a couple of factors when that that might happen is a bit of a question mark but from what I've read there is something else about Klipsch's entry into...

    Pico - USB DAC/Amplifier From HeadAmp

    I have to admit I wasn't all that fired up about Justin's upcoming offering when I first heard about it, other than his stellar build quality I just didn't quite get what was going to separate it from the other offerings on the market. Ok, yeah, I knew it was supposed to be a higher quality DAC...

    Black Snake Moan

    My wife and I just watched Black Snake Moan on the weekend, great movie and some great music. I've always liked that kind of really raw, old blues but have never really heard of any artists that I could check out. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Point & Shoot Digital Camera Questions and/or recommendations

    My wife and I have an older Pentax Optio 3.2 MP P&S digital camera that we got when our daughter was first born. We weren't sure at the time how much use it would get so we tried to get a decent performer on a tight budget. My wife uses it all the time but it's getting a bit finicky nowadays so...

    Shure E500 with Westone UM56 custom ear mold tips

    Ok, my curiousity towards the UM56's has increased dramatically in recent days. I've actually been pretty happy with the sound of the yellow foamies but also find I have a hard time with fit in one ear. Plus the yellows don't last very long so using these on a regular basis can become a costly...

    HeadAmp AE-2 Impressions

    My new HeadAmp AE-2 arrived a couple of days. Upon picking the package up at the post office I just couldn't wait, I tore into it in the Van in the parking lot. Justin's incredible attention to detail doesn't just show through in his amps, his packaging is pretty amazing as well, inside the...

    Some silly Supermicro IV questions

    When I first saw the size of the Supermicro IV I was intrigued and now with some of the recent posts regarding it's sonic's I'm even more intrigued but I'm curious about a couple of things. First off how is the thumbwheel volume control, does it offer some resistence when turning or will it...

    More stoopid iPod & dock questions

    I have a 60 gig 5G iPod video and a Marware dock. I intended on using the dock as a home base for the iPod when it's not in use but I've noticed that when the iPod is fully charged the screen is still kind of half on with the large battery charged symbol on the screen. If I leave it in the dock...

    iPod firmware update problem

    Well I just got my new 5G 60 gig iPod yesterday and got it loaded up with music but I can't update to the latest firmware (version 1.2 I believe). The problem is my computer is not connected to the internet so iTunes can't download the update. The computer I'm on now has high-speed but it's...

    Error messages when trying playback ALAC files in foobar

    I just did a batch conversion of FLAC files to ALAC files using dbpoweramp and while the new ALAC's seem to work fine in iTunes 7 I get error messages when I try to play them in foobar. Not a huge deal but I'm wondering if anyone might have an idea what's wrong, if I did something wrong or if...

    Converting FLAC to ALAC

    I have very limited internet access with my only access to high-speed via my in-laws computer which is running Windows 98 with about 1 gig of space left. In order to rip my music I hooked up an 80 gig drive of my own, ripped to that drive, then took the drive to my own computer which doesn't...

    Rockbox and Dock Questions

    I've done some poking around on the Rockbox forum and asked a few questions but I'm still a bit confused about using an iPod with Rockbox and a Dock. I'm a moron here, I don't have an iPod yet so I'm not familiar with all the functions. I don't have a computer at home right now so it need a...

    iPod Cases

    I've been doing some research into cases for a 5G 60 gig iPod video. I don't want to go overboard with price, probably a $30 - $40 budget but of course cheaper is better. I've always had an affinity for leather cases, I love the Vaja case I have for my Rio Carbon but I can't realistically afford...

    A Few iPod & Rockbox Questions

    I'm on the verge of picking up a 60 gig 5G iPod. My plan has been to put Rockbox on it and use FLAC predominately. I've got a couple of questions though, does Rockbox support Apple Lossless? If so will Rockbox play Apple Lossless as gapless? Would it make more sense to use Apple Lossless in case...

    Some iPod questions

    I’m thinking about buying a 60 gig iPod, probably a photo, and putting Rockbox on it but I have some questions. I remember awhile back (3G I think?) iPod’s had some problems with low impedance IEM’s like the Shure E4’s which caused a bass rolloff. Right now I’m using E4’s but the plan will be...

    Weighing my options (again)

    Alright, so I'm still debating my next source upgrade, I had pretty much decided on a Storm Digital D02 (or baby D02 depending on whether I feel my shelf can handle the over 20 lbs of the regular D02) to be paired up with my Headamp GS-1 but in the past couple of days I've been reading more...

    Decisions, decisions...

    Well I'm looking at upgrading my source again. It's not that the Dialogue II is bad, quite the contrary, I like it quite a bit but it does have a few shortcomings that I'd like to improve upon. My main concern has been in the bass, the level of bass is generally quite good but it lacks some...
