I recall seeing an ad about a motion activated CD player a few years back.  Anybody happen to know the model or even better, a link to the commercial?  The concept is similar to the JVC NX-TC5 but instead of tilting, two glass doors covering the CD drive open.   I'm hoping to use the part of...

Looking to buy some opamps for rolling then stumbled on a thread with people saying that the three are the same thing.  Some vendors market them as the same as well. LM4562 and LME49720 are the exact same part... just different model stamped (stated by an ex-employee) The LME49860 is just a...

Thinking about rolling the opamp on my C&C XO but not too sure as to what will be compatible.   Lots of threads on opamps but not many giving power ratings. Some opamps I am currently considering are: LT1364 (Recommendation from Avro-Arrow) TLE2142 OPA2111 OPA2227 OPA2228 (Will the...

I know this is blasphemy but can't really afford much at the moment. I promise that I will get something more worthy once I get my career going (ie just graduated with no job and got tons of student loans to pay back) Back on topic, trying to see what's available in the used market for ~100...

Just picked up an AMP3 Pro1 and I thought that my 225s would be alright but found the hiss to get quite pronounced when the volume is over 20 so thinking about saving up for a set of cans to match them. My budget is ~150 (shipped to Canada), going to run straight from the AMP3 and the main...

Hi, Does anybody happen to know if there is a vendor that sells Etymotic accessories in Canada or will ship to Canada w/o outrageous shipping fees? I'm looking for the ER4-45 Tool + Filter kit but can't seem to find it anywhere. I could only find places selling the Tool only at a price 10x...

Already have IEMs for outdoor use and now I'm looking for a pair of cans for indoor use. I like good depth and soundstage so I'm thinking about grabbing something open... besides... I find closed cans stuffy and get my ears sweaty I would prefer something circumaural but supra-aural should be...

Helping my friend clean out her storage room and stumbled upon a set of speakers. I tried searching online but couldn't really find much information on them so they're prolly very old. They were rarely used and still in great condition as they were wrapped in plastic when in storage. Here are...

In the market for a portable audio player for commuting and currently thinking about the Toshiba T400 vs Samsung P2 vs iRiver Clix2. I currently have an old 256MB Creative Muvo which is really old school and too small now. Which would you recommend? I will be pairing it with my UM1s and will...
