    WARNING - Dual Disc - Why You Should NOT Risk Buying Them!!!

    Not to get into the politics of the Dual Disc issue, I will say I did not have a problem playing Devils & Dust on my CD player, which is several years old, nor did I have a problem ripping the CD to my IRiver using my notebook. As for the sound, I can't complain about that either. However, it is...

    Has anyone used a gigabag?

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm just looking for a small, portable package for my amp and player and it sounds like the Gigabag will fill that need.

    Twin Peaks

    Only the first season was worth the cost of DVD.

    final impressions of px200

    Taken for what they are (small portable closed headphones for under $60), I think the PX200 are excellent. I was surprised they sounded much better after a dozen hours or so of use, since I assumed only the larger more expensive headphones required a “burn in” period for improvement. And the...

    NJB3 firmware v1.30.08

    Quote: Originally posted by Peddler I think that this is a case of 'if it ain't bust - don't fix it'. This is good advice. Unless you have a problem the upgrade will fix or there is a new feature you need, I would stay away from the patch. Believe me, Creative would not be the...

    Headroom Airhead with AKG 501's

    Quote: Originally posted by Shane492 I was just wondering if the airhead can dirve the 501's.. I have both the TAH and AKG501 and while it will power the AKG501, it will not "drive" them to the sonic level you would expect for the headphone’s price. When I want to make the headphone...

    Which MP3 hard disk player?

    I totally agree with the Peddler’s NJB3 comments. I have the NJB3 40GB and I’ve found the sound quality to be outstanding. I regularly use either the ER4S or HD600, depending on my listening environment, with excellent results. I travel a lot and it is really nice to have both excellent sound...

    Nomad Jukebox 3 40GB Or Ipod 20GB?

    I’ve had the NJB3 40GB for about two months, the NJB 20GB before that, and I’m quite happy with both the sound and performance. And I love having the recordings of over 450 CDs wherever I go, and still have room for a lot more. The NJB3 did freeze up with the initial battery charge, but the...

    Yes another HD590 vs HD600 question

    I bought the HD590 for the office when all I had was the TAH amp, and I was not disappointed in the results. I especially liked the single cable attachment. However, once I moved up on the amp scale and I added the HD600, I've never gone back to the HD590. I know it is a matter of my personal...

    Creative Nomad Jukebox 3 Review

    Peddler, You do know that a wired remote will be available once Creative starts selling the NJB3 accessories. As for the control buttons, there is a menu “Button Lock” option that will lock out the control buttons. I’ll admit making this a menu option was a pain until I got used to the feature.

    Best amp for HD-600's? (~$500)

    Quote: Originally posted by Driftwood I agree with kelly. Haven't heard it myself, but the RKV really seems like something you should consider. Substantial increase in performance over the amps you were considering for just a little more. I thought the RKV had a list price of $1300...

    Cosmic with or without the Reference Module?

    Quote: Originally posted by Lilac_Wine I think I may go with a regular Cosmic. It seems that the RM may not add that much to the sound. Quote: Originally posted by Lilac_Wine Well I did it. I just ordered the cosmic with the reference module and a pair of DT831s...

    Rechargable batt. and Airhead 4.5v

    I tried that combination and the TAH just seem so underpowered with the rechargeables. There is is a definite improvement when using Alkalines.
