Hey Guys,   A couple of days ago I bought a pair of Fidue A83's.  I'm enjoying them so far, but I just tried to remove the ear tips and the small gold filter fell out of one of the ear tips.   I have tried to put it back in, but it keeps falling out.     Here is the issue.  I bought them...

Hey everyone,   I recently picked up a pair of those Cardas in ears and am loving them!   The only issue is the leather case that they come with.  I love the way it looks and operates, but it is way too small and doesn't provide much protection if you put the earphones in a bag.   Does...

So my system had a noticeable channel imbalance and I spent many hours trying various things to pinpoint the problem.  I came to the conclusion that it was my turntable after replacing tubes, swapping cables as well as switching the L/R cables.   About a week ago I accidentally left my...

Hey Head-fiers,     I am looking to upgrade my speaker set-up  and I am unsure what I should upgrade.   Currently:  Technics SL-Q3 Turntable (80s, old but in good shape), Bellari VP130 Phono Stage (purchased recently, new tube as well), Dared MP-5 (purchased recently, new tubes...

Hey everyone,   I am trying to connect my iPhone 4 to my Dared MP-5 via the USB cable and it doesn't seem to be sending data.   The cable I am using is the one which shipped with the iPhone 4.  It seems to work fine with my computer, but not the Dared amp/dac.   Any ideas?    I...

Hey everyone,   It has been a very long time since I posted.  I've just graduated college, and come into some money (yeah).   I purchased an RSA Tomahawk, because I do most of my listening through my Triple Fi. 10's.  Ever since that amp has come out, I've wanted one, but was unable to...

Hey head-fi, Came back for some non-headphone advice, mostly because of my comfort level with the people on this forum. I am in a bit of a predicament and am looking for some advice. I would like to set up a little audio system for my PS3, my limitations are as follows. -$300 to...

When I drink vodka, I drink it in warm tea. Given this information, should I be storing vodka in the freezer? Everyone I know stores it in the freezer, so that was the assumption I was going with, but they were also serving it cold. thanks for the info head-fi

My original post is below, but I thought that this would be a great place to start a thread about handmade cases, regardless of the source. If you find any cases for laptops, iPhone, smart phones, iPods, or any other DAP, please post it for us. If you have a picture of yours, that would be even...

Good Evening Head-Fi, I am looking at selling my Xbox 360 on ebay along with all of the games, controllers and cables. I have sold two things on eBay, both hockey cards, but I would like some advice on how to do things "right". Obviously, I am going to lose money on this, but the new...

Well, I've been into vinyl for about a year. I've built up quite a collection, around 60 different lps, not bad for a 20 year old! I recently upgraded cartridges to a Grado Black. Not the best cartridge, but for a college student with loans and a car payment it fit my needs. The sound is...

I have two external HDD's and I want iTunes to recognize them both. Currently iTunes puts all of the files I download and rip into the folder on my laptops HDD (the generic "Music" folder) because one of my external HDD's is full. how do I get iTunes to put the files on my second external...

I took the HDD out of my old windows computer (parted it out here on head-fi) and I bought an external inclosure on newegg and the installation was no problem. When I plug it into my macbook (USB2.0) it says that I have Read Only Permissions. This is understandable, but is there anyway to...

Hey head-fi, I am looking for a slick pair of glasses. I want to spend ~100 bucks (give or take) on a nice pair of designer frames. I recently started a GIS internship, and i've been spending A LOT of time looking at computer screens and I am going to need a new perscription anyways, so I...

Ok head-fi, here is an eye-fi (trademark) question. My family has an HDMI dvd player that will upscale to 1080i, we currently have it running to our TV which is capable of 1080i. I connected the dvd player to the tv via component cables (comp 1 and comp 2 are 480p and DTV1 is 1080i via comp...

ok head-fi, let's see if you can solve this one. . . I am a 20 year old male, and I am having A LOT of trouble shaving my neck. I've always had this problem, but I am pretty sick of it. I can never seem to get a smooth shave in my neck area. My face is always smooth (I have a problem...

It has been about 4 months since I've converted to vinyl, and about 2 months since I've gotten rid of the headphones in favor of speakers. This thread is mearly to give my impressions on both changes, which I felt was very big, and inform people of some great gear at even greater prices. A...

I have been a dog person my entire life, but with a dog comes a lot of work. The biggest problem being taking the dog outside every hour or so and not being able to leave them at home for long peroids of time. I saw this little guy He is pretty much adorable and I have never owned a cat...

I am debating if I should sell all of my CD's (over 450 total). The logistics is proving to be a problem, I don't know how I would safely package all the cd's, and their jewel cases. If any of you have some ideas, or have first hand expierence with this, please post or PM me. Thanks...

Well, I recently went vinyl, but since I do not have the balls to sell off all of my CD's (400-500 of them) I pulled the plug on a ebay and scored a Sony CDP-CE105 for 25 bucks shipped. I absolutely love vinyl, but it doesn't make sense to listen to the 25 records I have over and over again...

The door will prove to be a little bit of a problem. the room actually extends far behind this picture, so that is also a little bit of a pain to work with. thanks, this is really my first time worrying about speaker set up. -mattk
