Hey guys,            I visited a genius bar and got nothing but "we can replace it for $75" since it's about two weeks outside of the warranty (go figure).  I declined since they only give a 90 day warranty on replacement units.  So, now what? Can this damn thing be fixed?  I have a feeling...

Hi Guys and Gals,             Looking through the search engine, looks like there hasn't been a thread on Hi-rez audio in years.  I owned several SACD's since 2005 that collected dust before getting my speaker rig in order recently and now I can finally enjoy Multi-channel music discs...

Title says it all.  The flanges give me a great seal and they sound pretty good (quite different from the olive foamies).  But I love the olive foamies for their comfort and DAMNIT...I cannot get a seal with them at all.  The cabling just gets in the way.  If I remove the cables, I can insert...

Hi All,           I figured I post this issue here in hopes of resolving this problem.  Frankly, I'm not finding a solid answer to my issue.     Mobo: Asus P6X58D-E I have four HDD's .  One of them is a SSD which is imaged with Win 7 64 bit.   I have three SATA HDD's, two of them are...

 So I have the Analysis Clear Ovals terminated to Banana plugs.    This type of Banana plug:  http://www.analysis-plus.com/images/newTH4.jpg   But when I go online to search for a pair to buy elsewhere (working on buying a center channel), I keep seeing this kind of Banana plug:  ...

I got mine up and running again recently.  Had to send it in for a board swap when the - volume broke.  The guy swapped out the board and placed some glue onto the volume connectors inside to keep them from breaking off, essentially losing connection.  Yeah, this is the second time it happened...

Hi guys, I have a pile of LP's that I'd like to get rid of.  They are free, one condition is that you must pick them up.  First come first serve.  Basically, it's a mix of classic rock to brit pop and some metal.  Artists range from Peter Gabriel, to Nine Nails to Creedence Clearwater Revival. ...

Not sure if this was ever posted here, I got this from taperssection: http://www.newlaunches.com/archives/...ono_system.php Oh yeah baby!

Hi Guys, I got a call from the fiancee and she asked me to pick up a scanner. So I have 30 mins to seek out rec's for a flat bed scanner $100 and under (excluding tax) before heading out during my lunch break. Here's J&R's url for scanners (J&R is just 2 blocks away from my job)...

Hey guys, I have a exercise coming up in my tv production class in a few weeks. One of the requirements is a visual card with a picture of whatever we will be discussing, in my case it will be headphones. So I figured a few pics (or one big pic) of a person wearing headphones in audio nirvana...

http://www.homeentertainment-expo.com/ Alright, who plans on going? I'm definitely in for Friday afternoon so I can get my hands on some vinyl goodness. Maybe we should try to meet up this year, anyone in?

This kind of thing only happens to me: Yesterday I had my receiver/speakers on running sound with my tv, I ran a hot air popcorn machine and afterwards noticed a humming coming through my speakers. The humming is noticeable with my tv on but not too much when I'm running my source....am I...

Hey Guys, I finally got a replacement cartridge from Grado last week and quickly went home and installed it. The original cart had a bent stylli and Grado was kind enough to send me a brand new one (as far as I can tell...it looks immaculate unlike the one I sent in for repairs). First...

Hi All, I've finally gotten to the point where I can purchase a pair of speakers. My budget is around $700 max. I've been eyeing the Epos M5's, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should look into. I don't think I want floor standing speakers as they'll up too much space and the cats...

Here's a pic: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v1...Anch=imgAnch39 I haven't rolled a record in ages since someone pointed out it might be bent...is it? It used to skip like crazy on some records when I first purchased the TT used on audiogon, it's a Rega Planar P3 (iirc). If the...

Hi All, The left channel finally bit the bullet. It's been acting up for the last few months (intermittant scratchy noise), but it finally went out about a week ago. I tried contacting the original builder but he went MIA (no email response, no head-fi activity since March)) and his last...

Hey Guys, Need some tech help. I cannot figure out which file or if this file is even installed on my T43. I updated all my drivers since this is a new laptop but I haven't been able to find the network controller. I have installed the driver for my network adapter (Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit...

I haven't been able to get my karma to connect to my pc and recognize all its tracks on rio manager for several monthes. The arrow that normally lights green to transfer tracks stays gray and the text in the lower right corner states "Over: 0 Bytes" in red. I cannot access the rio karma at all...

Alright, the hell with this, I really want a new one more than ever. Budget is $300-$400 and i'm not interested in upgrading for a while. So I want something that'll sound nice right out of the box. I also want something that's easy to setup/configure. Possible choices: Musichall 2.1...
