So.. I got me an Asus 1101HA for school. I installed Windows 7 RTM on it and whenever I use the D10 the sound is glitchy.. the motherboard sounds good, not glitchy, not crackling or whatever. Only the soundcard via USB glitches. Not just with Media Player Classic, also with iTunes and...

Okay, let me say that I haven't yet tested this since it's too late here to go modding.. But perhaps you, your friend or someone you vaguely know has tried this: iPod Budget Tweak Please post results if you've done this! I surely will once I get it done tomorrow Edit: This actually...

So I put the Rockbox 3.3 latest build on the Mini.. All ALAC files are either slow loading, have trouble playing or quit halfway.. So after some AB'ing between the Apple firmware and Rockbox 3.3 I found the following results using HD Tune 2.55 Apple iPod Mini 2G fw 1.4.1 : Transfer Rate...

Okay, problem here.. My girlfriend just bought me some Lush products (google it) and I don't really like them. That's kind of her hobby, collecting all the Lush products she loves. Same goes for me. I collect crazy sound emitting/amplifing objects for fun. I won't give her a Grado SR80 as a...

Hey all, I'm experiencing immense trouble with the UK Royal Mail.. I bought like 11 CD's from eBay sellers in the UK, the first being bought in late April, a fellow Head-Fi'er send me something, last week I bought some opamps from diy hi-fi.co.uk (also an eBay seller) and nothing has arrived...

So I recabled my Denon D2000 with some Cryoparts The Wire today and Markl modded it while I was at it. Now I have a problem.. the right side gives more bass and more highs. It even occurs when the cups are not attached. It's only very slightly, but I think I messed up the voice coil by...

So let me introduce you to the project. I got around to disassembling this "thing" last night. I bought it several years ago for some fun MP3 mixing, I know, I was young. So when all the parts were laying there in all their nakedness, I decided to take a loupe and take a look at the parts...

Man this episode was good! It started all good and happy, but ended quite tragic and beautiful at the same time. It really kept me on the edge of my chair the whole fortyfive minutes. Still not as good as 4.15 House's Head and 4.16 Wilson's Heart (the season four finale divided over two...

Ever heard so many songs that you're itching to put them in a good mix yourself? I had that and I got busy.. then I discovered a very rare UNKLE album.. and it was exactly what I was dreaming about. It contains all kinds of music, it's mixed THAT good, keeps my head nodding and my feet tapping...

Don't know if this is really that relevant here, but it appears that the iPod Touch has some exploding issues as well.. Let's hope this doesn't happen to any of you iTouch loving head-fi'ers!

Hey, Currently I'm pretty much in the whole instrumental hiphop/downtempo (or whatever their styles are called) thing with RJD2, DJ Shadow/Cut Chemist and UNKLE as favorites So, do you have any other recommedations for me?

Let me explain: I got a 24" CRT monitor and I like to watch series and movies alot. With 720p .mkv files, I can use some filters to reduce noise, add a little sharpness and give it the look it deserves. I used FFDshow video decoder to apply those filters But here's my problem: I got some...

Newb-level question here. How do I power the Move properly? Do I set my universal wall charger to 7 volt when linked to my PC? (USB 5v + 7v = 12v) Or do I set my universal wall charger to 12v and let him do the powering work?

Anyone tried these?

Like the topic title says, which one sounds better? I currently have the Clip, but it doesn't have gapless playback.. C'mon, it's 2008. Any respectable player should at least have gapless playback. I listen to alot of DJ mixes and other gapless album, and the Clip kinda ruins it. So...

Head-fi, I need your help! I just ordered the FiiO, and there is no volume control on that little creature! So I was thinking, when my iPod 6G is connected to the dock, and that dock is connected via a custom made iPod LOD > RCA to my amp, I can turn the volume down with my Apple Universal...

as the topic title spells it out, I'm having crazy jitter with my usb DAC/AMP I bought this to enjoy music, not to dislike it. Every time something moves on my screen, I get jitter. If I move my mousecursor, I get jitter. And ofcourse there is the constant high pitched jitter. I already use...

Can anyone recommend me some good IEM's for gaming? I cannot use headphones because even the deepest headphones touch my ears, which is uncomfortable after 15 minutes

Here is why I'm a bit concerned: The earpieces don't have the shure logo. The y-splitt says patents pending From the y-splitt the wires are kept together by a piece of (what seems to be) black heatshrink. However, the tubes are normal, with the new collar that keeps the tips in place...

Is it normal that the Shure SCL4's have nothing but the L & R printed on them? No Shure logo? Because there is a number ingraved on the plug, but nothing on the earpieces themselves.

I'm really willing to build my own custom sennheiser HD25 cable, but what material should I choose? I like the bassy feel of the HD25 and their highs (not harsh). Any suggestions?

How deep are the D2000 cups compared to the Sennheiser HD555/595's? I had the 555's and sold them because my ear was touching the driver protector screen all the time, which ofcourse became uncomfortable So before I buy this one and go trough the motions again, can anyone comment on this?

I'm planning to buy a Denon D2000, but I'm a little afraid it won't be comfortable, since my ears are quite big, and I simply need a deep earcup. The Sennheisers and Ultrasones are all not deep enough. And that makes them uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time. So my question is...

I wanted to buy some parts @ Qables.com, and all of a sudden I'm looking at a web commercial I was shocked. My favourite parts-store. The pride of the Dutch Hi-Fi folk. Down.. Edit: Ladies and Gents, the Dutch folk can be proud again. It's up!

Hey, Yes, don't verbally beat me to death for owning a Bose triport, I know. It's very very bad of me BUT here's the upside! I want to replace the drivers with Koss KSC75 drivers, since the Bose headphone is soooo comfy, but the SQ is that bad. Are the KSC75 drivers capable of producing...
