any predator owners who can help?? Thanks :)

Hello,   I misplaced my RSA Predator 5V charger and my amp is out of battery.   Was finding alternate ways to charge the Preddy. The Charger rates 5V +/- 2% @ 2A.   Two questions: 1. Is it possible to fully charge the Predator over mini-USB? 2. Can I use a similar Charger that is...

Sometimes I wonder if they are even sincere in having such an offer.   The deal ran out in a few minutes.

any idea in how many hours/minutes time this will be published?   Im in a different time zone so its hard to tell.   The offer is not appearing on my screen atm.. wonder why?

I owned the um1,2,3x and w3's at some point, switching between the four and found the um3x to be much more detailed with deeper bass and clarity than the um1s. Essentially you're getting a VERY similar sound signature as the um1 but because the 3x is slightly harder to drive than the um1s due...

Hi guys, I found 2 tubes in my closet recently and have no experience with tube amplifiers. Could you guys advise what make and model are the tubes, and if they are of any value? Thanks Gerald

I do recommend the Westone 3 with silicon grey sleeves due to their excellent noise isolation and great seal. Unlike a previous post where the user found the W3 falling off halfway with the sleeves, I felt that the seal was great due to the air-tightness of it. And an iPod Touch would be...

Ok I just purchased 2 types of resistors: 1.2kΩ, 0.6W, 6.2 mm, and a 68kΩ, 0.4W, 3.6 mm resistor. They were like only 8 cents each! Which one works better, the 1.2kΩ or 68kΩ version?

it does, but you have to build one yourself, or buy one from a store. iPod/iPhone Dock Connector ordering is a good place to find DIY stuff. Qcables sell ready made ones.

This is confusing. Do I get a 66k ohm or 1k ohm resistor to fit in there? It's quite a big difference, at least it seems

I need the LOD for listening to music on my iPod Touch 2nd Generation. Do they sell really small SMD (surface mounted) resistors of this type? I am afraid the traditional ones will not fit into the teeny QB connector case

Hey all, I am new to the LOD thing, please help I read that "tying pin 11 to one of the ground pins in the LOD will activate the LOD for the second gen iPod touches". May I know how do we "tie" pin 11 and to which ground pin (pin #?) do we tie it to? Is a resistor required for an iPod...

Hi all, I am thinking of building a nice LOD for my iPod Touch 2nd Generation. There are many tutorials for the previous old version 1.0 LOD's but they do not work with iPod Touch 2nd Generation, and 3G iPhones. May I know what additional steps to take, to make the LOD work with the 2nd...

HiFlight, Was just wondering if you have similar whistling and hissing sounds with dual AD797's in the P3? (in its stock configuration)

Hi guys, I have a pair of UM2's and was thinking of trying out different IEM's. Could anyone with a UM2 and SA6 comment on the differences between the two? Being around the same price point, I wonder how these two compare. Thanks!

The Heron is more of a serious full amp whereas I think that the T4 is for minimalists who value portability and small size over good sound. Still it is too early to make comparisons in terms of sound between the two.
