I've been playing percussion for 12 years with the last 3 being focused on drumset. I just graduated from music school and will (hopefully) have a job playing soon. Here's my kit:     Taye Studio Maple drums in Bop sizes with Evans G2's on top and G1's on bottom (toms) And Aquarian...

     

  Its only that clean because I just finished putting the desk together.   Specs: Cooler Master HAF 922 case <--Highly recomended Biostar ta790gx mobo Phenom x3 Black cpu ATI HD 4770 gpu (I think) 6gb of ram 2 -1tb Hdds Thermaltake 750w PSU X-fi USB sound card BK ST-140...

Could you elaborate on how you made the strain relief?

I installed it on my old computer and it was awesome...when it wasn't randomly freezing, restarting, or BSOD-ing, and I can't install it on my new computer. *Sigh*

Well you could look at it a different (read: more optimistic) way. People like me who are just now getting to the point where they can afford nice gear are able to get a lot more for our money by buying used, this places us further up the upgrade curve (or down into the money pit ) so it won't...

Sony TAES9000es pre-amp and B&K ST-140 Power amp I got them both for under $400 shipped, I love ebay.

Ok, so currently I am running my music out of the audio out on my motherboard (since I just built a new computer and the fan on my GPU blocks the pci slots) into a receiver, and to my speakers/headphones. As the title states, I wish to get rid of my receiver, and go with a DAC or...

Hopefully with the next few paychecks I will get some of this: ASUS Xonar Essence or E-MU 0404 usb (haven't decided) Fan Controller (so I can hear my music) Moar case lights for my case One of those panels with the on/off switches so all my expansion slots aren't filled with light...

awesome, thanks for the help

The title says it all. All of my current equipment is listed in my sig, except for my soundcard, which is an X-fi extreme gamer. I'm completely ignorant when it comes to this, all I want is the most for my money. Here's some information that should help: ~I'm focusing on upgrading the speaker...

thanks

Mine is like that, except the colors on the face are reversed, it's a Bernoulli Mosaic and supposedly retails for $3k, but my dad got it off of uBid for $50, so I don't really believe that. Either way it's my first automatic watch and I love it to death

I have a pearl uni-lock snare stand and while I've never put something like that in it, It'll hold a full sized marching snare drum without wobbling, even when me and two other people are wailing on it.

lol, Free Shipping

poor stormtroopers...

Mine should be here tuesday, I hope they're as good as everyone says

Well my speakers really cut through the walls of my house, so my only options are to buy new headphones, or listen to the Bose ones that my mom has. EDIT: Thanks Akathisa

Man theres a lot of activity on this forum, I had to dig through my web history to find this thread. anyway Lucky for me there was an HD595 on uBid for $140, so I went ahead and ordered it, and I should have it in about a week. One final question, what is "pink noise" and where can I find...

I now have an excuse to buy a pair of headphones! I listen to all kinds of music, from Megadeth to Mozart, so these cans would have to be pretty versatile. Isolation is a non-issue since I'll be listing to them inside only. I would like to keep this purchase under $200, but I can go over if it...

I got -36 with my X-fi gamer and speakers, I was listing to the bass and could normally tell pretty quick.

I'm a percussionist, although its marching season right now so all I play is snare drum. As you can tell by my avatar I'm a huge DCI fan (Go Blue Devils!), and I want to march drum corps when I get out of high school. I can't decide if I want to major in music, but I'm taking AP Music Theory...

I went into a HobbyTown to look at RC planes and thought, "Who would spend that much money on a tiny plane." Then I got into audio.
