DT880s

Well .... Seems the curse of this place really digs in well!! Here's my story (or warning to anyone whose new!): A few years back I stumbled upon this site. I'd always felt that I was someone who really enjoyed music and liked to hear it well - I wanted decent equipment to listen to...

I use foobar with the LAME codec to create my MP3 files and just use iTunes to transfer the files to my iPod. All these files play gaplessly (when they are meant to)

Double post .... (never had that happen before ... and never seen one so far apart in time either)

I personally have the A900LTD and have the DT880 as a different headphone (actually got the DT880 first) and I think they complement pretty well. My DT880 is mainly used for classical & movies although I have listened to both on all styles and like them both for anything & everything. I've...

Fastest I've ever driven is about 105mph at which point the car I was driving was shaking a bit (anything over 85-90 and the engine felt like I was thrashing it too much) Fastest I've ever been with someone else driving? Probably about 120mph or there abouts.

Ditto here on Ubuntu 6.10 Although having a sound card in my machine means I do have to go to the settings and switch to using the USB Dac instead of my Audigy but it still works fine. First time I used it I had to make sure to put the software volume control up to max but after that it stuck...

my first thought was to wonder about the graphics card. I'm not sure how it works on PC's that have onboard graphics but mine always boots up showing details of the graphics card first before anything else (and so does most other PC's I've ever worked on) If nothing is being shown then the...

Nero recode. Only because I have Nero and it does the job and it was easier/quicker then looking for something else that might do the job.

Man this looks really interesting. I've never tried a tube amp but a portable tube amp sounds very interesting and something I'd like to have a look at. Do we have any idea as to when they might be available?

generally around 70-80Mph when on the main motorways etc. Speed limit on them is 70Mph so I'm not actually going that much over, and I get overtaken by lots of people at the same time so I'm not even keeping up with some of the speed demons on the roads. I don't like going much faster as it's...

My parents have ordered the weekly shopping online before and have it delivered. It's helpful when they are both at work and really busy and saves them having to go to the shops during a busy time to pick things up. Personally I'd rather have it delivered - maybe it's laziness - but I don't like...

Cowon players do. Think their video player is the A2 or something like that. They might even have some new player(s) coming out sometime as well.

I say if you like them and think they are worth the price that they are charging then good for you. If you want to look around and try something cheaper from a different company and find them better then go that way. I know a couple of people who have the QuietComfort2 and they both love...

Jahn has really covered a load there of what you want to be looking for/thinking about. I'll add my luck to you for when starting out - I can remember how I felt when I first got a guitar and didn't know what on earth I was doing with any of it. I do have a couple of pointers that I've...

I don't know what is meant by "better" either ... I mean I've never driven many American cars so I wouldn't be able to say one way or the other how they compare to European care (which I've also not driven many of) All I can say with any real knowledge is that, of the cars I've seen, I...

That's an amazing list of headphones there. And it'd have to be to beat out Santa!!

If I remember correctly though Clarkson wasn't the one ragging on Ford with all his problems with the car - he was saying that it was annoying and everything but that he still loved the car and thought it was great. If anything he was pointing out that, even with all the problems, the car was...

I think I remember that episode. I don't know the specs of the different cars so I can't comment on how realistic the "race" was. Personally the show isn't about how good they are at testing these cars against one another anyway (but I would want them to get that right - if your going to do a...

I wasn't trying to criticise or have a go or anything. I was just asking why you was wanting to install three and whether there was something specific that BSD did that Red Hat didn't or something. Until I read your post I hadn't read much about BSD at all and so I was asking what was...

Slightly amusing although I've heard some of the actual TV show contestant callers funnier then something that someone has recorded over the top. They really get some ... strange... people calling into that show at times.

Can I just ask why are you installing 3 different OSes? I understand people who do a dual boot (I'm one myself) and go for (usually) Windows and A.N. Other but why go for three? What does FreeBSD offer you that Red Hat doesn't (or vice versa)
