Please explain how the facts off of a companies website make me a fan boy? And a fan boy of what? Anti virus?

Wow. I've never seen so much inaccurate information in a thread on a board in my life. 1. AMD has no bearing on you getting a virus in XP. A virus is a piece of software that infects the OS (xp, me, 98), not the hardware. 2. AVG 7.5 is still free. And it DOES have a scheduler and real time...

I got em clean, just wish i could wash the top band too...

Windows: Edit, preferences, advanced, general, uncheck "copy files to library" Mac: itunes, preferences, advanced, general, uncheck "copy files to library" Good luck

Well they got wet! I submerged them for a good hour in detergent, the foams smell is gone, but pads you can still smell alittle bit of the last user, but i'm sure that will go away with time. I'm tempted to buy new pads from senn, but i'm afraid someone will come along with a link for 2.99...

Thanks for the reply. I came across the thread about washing them right after i posted this thread. I'll probably still be picking up some new ones, but i did wash the pads and the foam with laundry detergent, they're still alittle dry, but that sweaty smell is mostly gone. Thanks again...

Hello all. I just purchased a pair of 650s on the forum here, and i'm considering getting a replacement set of pads, just to start fresh. headroom used to sell them for 35.00 not a few days ago, but i go today, and they've raised the rates to 45! Is there any other reputible place online to...

Walmart, bestbuy, target, they all sell a version around here by belkin. Walmart is the cheapest, i getem for around 3 dollars for 6.

electronics can generally do well if they have been put in non salt water. As long as you let them dry, as to not short them when you plug it in, you'd be surprised what can go through water and still come out ok.

i notice that my foamies become to the point where they don't expand in my ears. Then i replace them (bought a 20 pack), and about a week or 2 later, the old ones have fully extended and are ready for another go round. Usually a set of foamies can be used twice, probably 5 to 7 sessions each time.

I've had the hfi-550s for a few months. I only break them out on special occasions when i want decent isolation but more bass than my shure e4c's. IMO they're extremely uncomfortable compared to my senn hd555s, which are my main can. They seem to press extremely hard on your head, gives me a...

i second the HFI-550's, great isolation, great sound, and major bass. Very easily driven by ipods, computers, etc. you won't be disappointed.

I use the energizer nickel metal rechargables. They're 150mha, and last about 4 hours or so in my headroom micro, but they are fairly cheap, and easy to get.
