Onkyo's soundcard
What? They have IC:s there besides those big amounts of capacitors?-) I wondered about that Vector Shaping Linear Circuitry, too. At least it looks like it supports EAX2 (on the page..).. Of course at what CPU percentage is a question, but it could be usable in games.- NetRunner

Anyone with foobar know how to fix this problemo
Yep. You need to add the "tracknumber" mp3-tags to those mp3 files. If you want to do it manually, you could just right-click on them individually and add it through the properties option.- NetRunner

Room acoustics
spwal: Eh.. Most people I know think that the room acoustics have the biggest effect on sound besides the speakers themselves! So at least I might put that much in acoustics.. *Though, there isn't much room place anything...* I have a room node of >10dB at 60Hz (well.. the response is pretty... -
Supra Audio ICs. Any good?
I haven't seen them being said to _really_ compare with expensive makers (like you mentioned), but they sure are a popular choice for cheap cables here in Finland, and I suppose in the rest of the Northern Europe. At least lots of people who don't think there are really any differences in cables... -
Room acoustics
Good topic.. Just recently when your Behringer DEQ2496 thread surfaced I got interested in it. For room eq purposes mainly. I had been thinking about some parametric (Behringer included) eqs before too. I have to see if it's any help on room nodes, though that is not adviced. Treble seems to... -

Any major reasons to upgrade Foobar2000 from 0.8.2 to 0.8.3??
Yes it's a case of don't fix it if it ain't broken.. But I like to keep mine updated. Besides I do my replaygaining with it, so the added (little) speed doesn't hurt. BTW the installer is small and remembers the settings from the last run (no need to uninstall) so the update is very fast to do..- NetRunner

The new allmusic.com-- what do you think?
Samples are nice.. Though it takes a bit clicking to get them playing. (50% of the tries timeout?) Yep, sloow. *Hopefully they can optimize/get more servers online/load balance..* "Works" on a Mozilla for me, but the JS links sure are annoying.. -
Do you read the lyrics?
Heheh.. I guess I have to be the first naysayer here. I don't read lyrics. I'm not generally annyed if I don't understanding what they sing. Also I tend not to notice if I don't understand.. I just like how music sounds, singing and playing together. -
Informal Impressions - DT531
Yep. DT531 do improve with an amp. Even X-Can v2.. Maybe I should get a second pair before they are all gone. Mine is getting in a quite bad shape.. *Age thing.. really..*- NetRunner

to FLAC or not to FLAC?
Well it is debatable if pops are bearable.. I hate them. *Why did Massive Attack go do that on Mezzanine on purpose? Oh why?* It is really a miracle that (universally?) all library cds are so scratched.. Maybe the media should be cased like MD. Though, that would be big. Cd paranoia has of...- NetRunner

Head-Fi special attack team
Well cafepress claims to have had 300,000 "stores" (consumer run) close to a year ago, plus 1000 new ones per day and 35 corporate stores.. So, probably they sell mostly the same products with different logos.- NetRunner

Newb question: "Good enough" DAC or USB sound interface for Prehead/HD-650
Well, I don't know how much you can say, at least from the fig. 10.. That PS Audio Lambda they used for input is pretty low jitter source, more so than some general piece of gear. *Hopefully too.. So I might gain something.* Maybe if they had measured the same with some worse gear too.. (Like...- NetRunner

Equipment Stand Recommendations
That Ikea Lack thingy doesn't sound too thick.. Only particleboard? Though you don't have to "cut" the legs as (you know Ikea) it doesn't come assembled (Well, you could shorten them..) Better to do from MDF + some 2x2 and veneer (if you aren't all thumbs (like me )? Well, its ready made.. Anyway.. -
Newb question: "Good enough" DAC or USB sound interface for Prehead/HD-650
Heh.. No he would not need a lowly DIP if he wishes to connect his PC to a aprox. 10,000 USD DAC. Besides the Medea has jitter reduction build-in (well two actually).- NetRunner

Whats out there besides the Reag Planet 2000 thats worth considering?
If going just going by what magazines like about players:.. What Hi-Fi didn't think Rotel RCD 1072 was the best (4/5, in Sep/03 Supertest). They tought it was too polite (but only considering the opposition in the price class), they did find it musical and nice sounding. Arcam CD82T, Roksan...- NetRunner

I don't know prices there.. I don't own these.. I just know that they look very nice and are very, very configurable! Finite Element: Spider Now, if I had some extra cash, this is what I'd buy.. They have a amp-stand model too: just the base (200kg weight limit for the base and 100kg for... -
New headphones of Sennheiser, pics (not HD650)
You notice that on their page it says that it has a clamping force of 3.5 N vs. 2.5 N in 600 and 590.. Don't know if that translates into any difference in reality, but strange anyway.- NetRunner
