I went to the post office the other week to ship a pair of Darths across the border to Canada. While filing the custom forms, I ask the mail office worker to put down $500 for insurance. Her eyes bugged out and give me a little incredulous look, like "what the heck can be worth $500 in this...

I'm having a tiff with a member here who sold me his W5000 headphones. I was able to pay very promptly on the terms of it being 'mint' and 'shipped very soon'. I assumed 'mint' meaning almost like brand new--an assumption like what most people would have right? But it turns out that the...

I discovered a few files, that are free to download from online, that emphasize the stressing of the bass, which works particularly well when burning in, 'loosening' up headphone drivers. I ran these files: 2 drum bass heavy tracks, 0-150 hz sweep, 0-30,000 hz sweep (this track works all...

Tickets are up for sale starting today. The event takes place from April 25->April 27. I managed to get a loan from a friend and snatched up two tickets for both Friday and Saturday. Those are the days that have more of the artists I likely to want to see. I went last year and had a blast...

I was wondering if any of you can help... For a while I've been noticing that I have uneven hearing, such as my right side isn't as accurate as my left. But this morning when I turned on the shower, and plugged my left ear, and opened my jaw to do a yawning motion--I can hear all the high...

Hey folks, I've been scouring the forum for impressions and thoughts on the APureSound V3 for Sennheisers, but to no definite success. From Alex's superb ER4 cable, I'm sure the V3 are fabulous too, but I would still like to read more from others about them. Could some you please give your...

I found a seller online that is selling 160 Samsung harddrives for the iPod. I asked if they fit the 5.5, and he replied 'yes'. But I'm not sure if it meant it'll fit & will connect/work with the 5.5. What do you guys think?

My iMod seems to be acting up, such as locking on some songs and such. I'm not sure if it is a hard drive about to crash, or the Rockbox firmware. Does anyone know what are the signs of you player's HD dying?

I found RiteAid selling the Murine Earigate for $16.99 for two. Most stores have them at $17.99 for just one So just a heads up for what I really think is good deal. I think the sale will only lasts until the next advertisements are printed, usually every Wed./Thur. (btw, how well do...

I've been searching but haven't found a definitive answer on Treads. Would someone please inform me about what the item is and does? Thanks

Just found this unbelievable site that talks about betavoltaic batteries. These sci-fi batteries can supposedly run continuously for 30 years without charging. Site says it'll be available to market in two to three years.... just think about the possibilities of portable electronics, especially...

Heard about the EarClear anyone? These jumbo sized syringe with nozzle goes for about $65-70 a pop I got the chance to use my friend's and they do the job of irrigating your ear canals with warm water + pressure. Folks, the same thing can be had when you use your a nozzle adjustable...

I just recently got these from a fellow head-fi, and wow. These ER4S gives extraordinary detail and accuracy when output from an iMod->Tomahawk, and the bass is present... but not of the same elk as the e530 I'm used to listening to. I'm thinking there should be an amp more suitable for the...
