Since the early 2000’s, I’ve enjoyed my Senn. 580’s, ASL MG-head mk III, and Sony NS500V SACD player. Now that I’m working from home and will be doing so at least part time for years to come, I’m getting a lot more than occasional evening use. I’ve been a Mac user for many years, including...

Only rumors so far officially, but I've heard that Sirius and Apple have been talking to each other. I would expect that if a Sirius solution for iPods did come out, there would be an add-on for the millions of existing iPod owners. So, I vote iPod too.

Quote: Originally posted by rsaavedr I just received a message from Matthew (SACDmods) indicating that in the Sony NS500V the separate stereo outs use a separate DAC that is much inferior to the one used on the 5.1 fronts, that the separate stereo outs are intended for use with a TV set...

Quote: Originally posted by markl Most SACDPs/DVD-A players have a single stereo set of outputs *and* a separate multi-channel set of outputs that also obviously include a Main L/R set of RCAs. I reco trying the Main L/R jacks in the multi-channel section for outputing the hi-rez...

Any opinion on the sound yet? I just saw the amp on eBay and then tracked down this thread. I'm certainly not excited about their choice of packaging methods.

Considering its obviously a scam, is there somewhere we can report it to? I don't think we've really determined which country the site comes from though...

Quote: Originally posted by Jazz1 I beg to differ. I don't think the new mini-iPod looks like the E2C at all. Okay, it's rectangular, but the control's look different. ????????????? I believe he was referring to the new Apple phones in comparison to the e2c's...

Quote: Originally posted by austonia what i'm trying to figure out is whether you can you use the "wheel" like the current ipods. you know.. spin your thumb around the wheel and it scrolls through lists? from an earlier post it sounds like it works only as a 4-way D-pad..... but no one's...

Quote: Originally posted by austonia So this is just a 4-way D-pad!!!? BWhahahaah.. No, its still a touch-wheel but you push on it to activate the buttons.

Quote: Originally posted by EyEPoD They didnt want people to only buy the mini ipod. With the 250 price tage it just adds another option. See, I think $199 would fit much better into the line-up. The $50 difference is just too close. And a 2gb $150 unit would really steal the...

I'm certainly disappointed. A $150 2-4 gb player with 10hours of battery would destroy the flash player market. Even if Apple wasn't much on each unit, they would carve such a huge market share lead it would be worth it. A $250 4gb player with "8 hours if you play it straight through...

SWEET! Thanks for finding and posting this!

If its a site you're registered with and want to renew your membership- call them. Then you know you're speaking to a legit person.

I've found that any pill that will fit snugly in my ear works just fine

I'm a hardcore iPodLounger... http://www.ipodlounge.com I guess that its kind of music related.

I rip to the HD on my G5 at work and just listen out of iTunes. I don't have an amp but I use this great plug-in: http://www.octiv.com/index.asp?content=iTunes I get respectable sound out my hd580's with this set-up. I crank the plug-in to full volume, keep the system volume around 80% and...

Quote: Originally posted by GSTom1 If you put a stop at the end of the “Z’s,” so you won’t overshoot, shouldn’t there be some sort of stop after each letter then? What’s to say that you won’t shoot past the “C’s” or the “L’s” when you are scrolling? I overshoot a lot, which is...

Quote: Originally posted by austonia Man, I don't get this. You could get to Z even more easily by just scrolling "up" from the start of the list, If the list actually looped A to Z. wouldn't that be even better than maddly scrolling all the way down to Z??? I don't get the logic here...

As far as the scrolling issue goes: I agree with those people who like that it stops. If I'm looking for something in the R's, I'll just give it a really quick roation or two and then work up more slowly. I use my iPod in the car a lot and being able to quickly get to Z and work up keeps...

I think you need to keep trying with this guy. He's still conducting auctions and getting positive feedback. It seems to me that he was pissed he didn't cover the extra charges he wanted in his auction and just took his sweet time mailing it. You said that it was being returned to sender...

Worst Bassist- Dusty Hill of ZZ Top. One riff used in every song, just change the notes to the guitar. Also, the female bassist from White Zombie. In one song she played the same 4 note measure for the entire song!
