Currently have a pair of ATH-ESW9 and while I absolutely love the sound, i need something a little less visible for work. Previously owned the Klipsch X10, Westone UM2's and liked the sound, but I imagine there are possibly better options out there.   Love lush mids and quality deep bass. I...

Etchings show: 1022-852 and B815 (though it may be B8I5) Any ideas?

Following a suggestion of someone else on here, I began working on a tube holder for my vacuum tubes (both for storage and for travel). One of the holes grabbed a bit as i went deeper, so that one wont be used (top right), but the other 14 holes are perfect. I'm going to use small stickers next...

Any good ideas on something that could be re-purposed to carry a 1 or 2 vaccum tubes securely?

Its been a long week for us here, but things have finally started to settle down a bit today. Last wednesday my dad (who has helped me with many projects i've tacked here and elsewhere), had an accident with his tablesaw while making a simple box. Something slipped, he reached for it, and...

So I just got IE7's and while I like the sound (very detailed), it's hard to go to the IE7's after listening to the D2000's as they sound so distinctly different. Doing an A-B comparison isn't fair as my ears get so accustomed to the bass of the D2000's, the IE7's just feel supremely thin in...

Thinking about working on a DAC next but I need Optical Input. What options are out there? Also, I would love if it didn't have any SMD parts, but from what I recall seeing, all DAC's seem to use SMD.

Anyone here use HPGL files when making their FPE panels? I'm big into fonts and wasn't terribly happy with the included fonts that the Front Panel Designer software offered. I downloaded a demo of Corel Draw, followed the instructions that FPE provides and created something that I think...

I am planning to recable my D2000's and have read through every post about removing the ear pads, maybe i'm a pansy but mine just don't twist, at all. Short of pulling out a blow torch, any ideas how to get those pads off?

My dad and I are working on making wooden knobs and were having a hard time getting an exact measurement. Edit: Ahhh, got it, 6mm. Ignore this!

Anyone know of any good online machine shops that could custom fabricate a brushed aluminum case for me? Its actually going to be for my latest nixie clock build, and was hoping it could turn out something like this one; PIC 1 PIC 2 I know Klok makes a similar case, but at $135 I was...

Trying to find out if anyone has any pictures of a black panel with no fill text. I assume the black anodized aluminum will be raw aluminum inside (silver). Anyone know?

After removing a part, I always have an issue with solder still in the hole. I have a desoldering braid, but it can only do so much pulling it out of the hole itself. Do I need a desoldering bulb?

A part snapped during my build last friday, late afternoon. I swung by a local store who didn't have the exact part I needed. I get home, place an order for a single $1.25 part at 6pm EST, shipped via USPS First Class for $2.02. Well it arrived this morning, expertly packaged, no extra...

Normally I would just blame my POS router, but the past few days it only seems to be head-fi that is noticeably slower than the others... Just me?

Noticed I had a headache today after working on my amp a bit last night, dunno if its from the fumes or not but figured I might as well focus on safety a bit as well. What, if anything, do you guys use?

I have a Sears Craftsman Auto Ranging Digital Multimeter, Model 82314. How would I go about using it to test hFE of transistors? LINK TO OWNERS MANUAL (PDF)

So i'm about halfway through my current build and I ran out of Solder. The local store doesn't carry the exact same solder anymore, so as long as I find another 63/37 should I be fine?

Just curious because I finally got around to opening the Hakkp 936-12 my wife bought from HMC Electronics, and while everything looked brand new, the 900MT16D tip seems to have a bit of solder already on it. Anyone else have this with theirs?

Am I missing something of why it would be so cheap? Digikey shows $30-40 for 1lb of 63/37. It looks a bit old, but would there be any problem with it?

The lowest I seem to be able to find is around 500-700mcd, still fairly bright. Has anyone run into any low mcd White 5mm LED's?
