Dno if it's just me (And my un-natural love for retro-futurism) but I think the Portapros look great

Dutch blue drum (not the US stuff) rizla orange OR zigzag regulars cardboard filter. Can't beat 2-4 of those a day.

At only £135, it sounds like a great deal. 1920x1080, 21.5" viewable, 5ms response and a contrast ratio of 1000:1 (no dynamic, but I heard it's a bit of a scam). Before I buy it, is there a better monitor with a well respected brand that I can buy in the same price range? I'd like it to be a...

Bump, Is this section of Head-fi dead?

The worst is in Weeds. The councilman's son has Bose AE, Silus has Bose AE and a few more people have them. Then the blatant advertisement when the Mum was sitting outside his room making noise to get him out of there and his little brother comes up and says "I think Silus has acoustic-noise...

Why can't I hear a difference in volume or quality? I have iPod Touch 1g>Fiio E5>Alessandro MS-1 There is no change in quality no matter what volume and no hiss at all. However connected to my TV it will give a hiss when compared to connecting to TV without the amp.

I'll give you some more info. I'll be using Windows Vista 64 bit (AMD phenom 2.6GHz quad) I'll use it for movies games and music Use it with perhaps a pair of monitor speakers (numark MS 16) 90% of the time I'll use it for playing games like CoD4 CS:S a bit of Crysis etc. etc. I'll never...

VLC is configurable in the advanced settings for the audio output.

Hi. I need an audio card to replace on board sound. I don't care at all for 5/7.1 setups because I'll be using headphones or a pair of speakers all the time with it. What's the best value and quality card for me? I don't want to spend extraneous amounts of cash unless it's necessary. I'll use...

XP Vista and linux distro

Are you still able to return those? they're not very good value at all and you can get much better speakers for the same price.

Fiio E5 16Gb iPod Touch, the IC that came with it and MS1s. I can't hear anything better.

Perhaps these 6 genders define on a hidden basis the techy girls.

That's so cool! It's like a JPEG vs a picture taken with a professional film camera, right? No jaggies. Does that mean to say that if there was a vinyl of a sine wave there would actually be a sine wave printed into the vinyl? cool!

Cool idea. Aplologies to the pokemon card in the background, it's not mine :P

There are talented artists on newgrounds.com and you can download the mp3's from the site directly.

Hi, I have recently come into possession of about 10 empty Haribo boxes, you know, the ones with the plastic lid that holds penny sweets. I've been finding them really useful. I use one as a dock for my iPod (using the little white thing sellotapt and some filing of the little white thing) and I...

I think the loud parts and the soft parts of music are less contrasted on lossy formats.

Thanks for the replies, I need to know the cheapest place to get one. Would a pawn shop be good?

Hi, I was looking for a 5.5G iPod with 80Gb of memory, so I could put rockbox on it, but I can't seem to find any of them. If anyone knows a place that sells them or refurbed ones can you tell me please? Also, if there is an MP3 player that already plays ogg flac etc out of the box and has a...

Alessandro MS-1 through iPod touch.

My MS1s smell like a guitar shop. I think it's the smell of acoustic foam. It is kind of annoying because the smell triggers a memory that I've forgotten. Kind of like rubber and mint. They smell really strong though, and I hope it goes away soon.

Use an ohmeter? if you know an electrician he could probably test them for you quickly and easily.
