    Ready to purchase custom In Ear Monitors

    I want flat response monitors more for personal High Fidelity listening. Vinyl rips and 24/96 recording. Think I will go for Ultimate Ears or Etymotic Monitors. I assume the custom inserts should feel the same and comfortable as far as them being created by an audiologist. Looking for feed...

    Monster Miles Davis Tribute thread

    WOW! Long thread. Here is how I use my IEM's and my experience. I have Etymotic's. Love the triple flange, fit great and stay sealed with some H2O, but the sound quality is not so much to my liking. Have a pair of Much cheaper Klipsch IEM's and like the sound better than the etymotics. Problem...

    How to rip DVD audio?

    If you want to get the higher res (48 or 96 khz) stereo audio off, that is very easy. I do it all the time including the love dvd so i can convert to FLAC and play wherever i want. I use cybelink power dvd to play the high res stereo while at the same time recording it with sound forge. When...

    Queen- Bohemian Rhapsody

    Maybe not so great to some today due to technical reasons also. Back then you had to experiment and jump through hoops to get to what they did. Today you can just cut, paste and digitally manipulate everything. Just a thought.

    reel-to-reel deck (large pic warning)

    But, it's a collection. Just like any other collection. Reel to reel collection just needs more room. I had a pioneer reel to reel back in the 80's. I used it with a timer to get special stuff like concerts and specific radio programs. Just a few days ago i was thinking of maybe getting a...

    Dire Straights - Private Investigations (Best of)

    Since the intended quality is unfortunately the way it is, thats why i say just be the consumer complaining that the sound is distorted so the disk must be bad. If you argue it has been compressed and clipped, well that was done on purpose so you won't win that arguement trying to return it...

    Dire Straights - Private Investigations (Best of)

    I think this would be another good way to help rid the loudness crap. If it is extremely loud and clipped, return it saying the sound is distorted and so the CD is bad or defective.

    Apogee Mini-Dac WOW!

    Queen 1,2,3 and 4 best sounding cd release

    I just listened to the two channel Bo Rap off the DVD-A. Where it gets loud just before the guitar solo, specifically where the vocal goes "sometimes wish i never been born at all". There is distortion there . I just heard the left noise you are talking about and it is where the vocal says...

    M Audio Audiophile 2496

    By the way, just for anyones fyi. I originally was using the onboard realtek out. Digitally through dac, amp and headphone it was ok.
