    All your hot headphones belong to Audiocubes? What?

    Don't get mad at me posting this...I'm just doing a favor here. I'm just being lazy... Shouldn't it be, "All your hot headphones are belong to Audiocubes?" That's how I learned it anyway. Someone fix that ad up there^ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_you...e_belong_to_us

    Just some thoughts on Grados (325i)

    Kind of a useless post...but I thought I'd share I'm just sitting here on the ground with my laptop on my thighs, 30gig video ipod on my crotch, with 325i's + flats on my comfortable ears, listening to Mylo, deeply thinking about headphone pads. I've been using my 325i's for a while with the...

    hard drive click noise when loading music and rotating the ipod?

    i just got a new 30gb ipod today. i noticed as i was transferring music that when i rotated the ipod from flat to its side, it would pause the transfer and make a louder than normal click noise...then it would resume the transfer. then when i rotate it back so it lies flat, it would do it again...

    attn: doctors, pharmacists, med students

    i just got a bottle of 14 20mg prednisone pills for my mild eczema. the bottle says "take two tablets by mouth everyday with food." does this mean i should take the two pills at the same time? or should i take one in the morning and one at night? 40mg a day for 7days seems like a lot.

    my 250mah nimh 9v batteries just came in the mail. i put one of them into my german engineered penguin-amp for charging and less than an hour later it blew up...i don't know why. the only thing i can think of is maybe my a/c adaptor wasn't regulated. the amp instructions only said the charger...

    Will these 325i mods alter the sound?

    i guess you'd call these mods... do you guys think coiling the cable would cause a difference in sound? what about removing the gold 1/4" plug and replacing it with a silver 1/8"? someone told me that coiling the cable causes a slight treble drop off. any truth to that?
