At the moment I'm finishing up my Gamma 2 which I am very much looking forward to. So I suppose my first question is; when connecting to my computer, which is the best output possible from the computer (optical, USB, digital coax)? Do understand that the optical and digital coax are the outputs...

I have to recable my A700 so I figured why not just do a balanced recable . Anyways, I have a couple questions: on the driver, which is the positive, negative, and ground? Also, since I don't have a balanced amplifier (..yet)...I will need a balance to single adapter...so as for the...

Original photo description: "Reopening of the South Fork Bridge after flood in Nov. 1940." Just take a close look at it...but keep in mind that this photo is completely authentic and was taken in 1940. Does anybody see anything strange...or in fact completely out of this world?

Afterall, I only have 2 hands.... Also, what other braided sleeving are out there besides Techflex?

Can the Y1/Y2 or some of the other DAC be made to operate in balanced? Or is there a DIY DAC out there that is already built to be balanced? I can always just get a balanced DAC but I'm sure building one would be more fun.

So I just mounted a camera inside my car so I film myself driving but I can't seem to use any application to capture it from camcorder. I have an IEEE 1394 Firewire card and the cable required but when I connect it to the computer and run Adobe Premiere or Movie Maker, it says that my camcorder...

So I have a chemistry question here, it's sort of weird and I know its a long shot asking here but I'll go ahead and ask anyways. Is there a chemical that acts endothermically to electrical current? Basically, is there a chemical or substance that absorbs heat when it comes in contact with...

I don't know how to say it, but basically I'm looking for more songs that is purely instrumental but with mostly electric guitar based. Something like Steve Hackett's "Spectral Mornings": YouTube - Steve Hackett - Spectral Mornings - LIVE (In Stereo) To me, this is one of the greatest...

hey guys, i'm trying to build a balanced b22 since i figured it would be cheaper than the other balanced fully built units, and plus it gives me a chance to learn how to build electronics. anyways, along the way i bumped into a few dilemmas, well mostly because of my lack of knowledge..anyways...

..is that okay? I'm thinking about building a balanced beta 22 but my headphones are not dual XLR terminated, I was thinking that I can get a Y-adaptor for the headphones going from 1/4" to dual XLRs. Is that okay?

Just today, I noticed that my GS-1000 has this short duration hissing sound that goes on and off from time to time when it is hooked up to any amp. and the thing is that there's no single going through, it's just hissing on it's own. weird...i even tried plugging my k701 in the same jack and...

Hey guys, for the past couple weeks I thought about getting better cables from my amp to the CDP, but then an idea came up, instead of buying a cable that is worth $400 for half a meter, why not making my own? So I did it: I used 2 pairs of gold rca connectors made my RCA. Monster XP speaker...

Hey guys, I enjoy reading books like The Catcher in the Rye, Catch-22, The Metamorphosis, and The Clockwork Orange. I suppose I like subjects that are about dark, mysterious plots...I'm not exactly sure how to describe it. Anyways, any recommendations for books you have read?

It is pretty dusty where I have all of my audio equipment. Would be bad if the dust lands on the the tubes of the RSA Raptor and the WA6 or any tube amp in general?
