    Anyone heard the Audio Technica ATH-ES3A?

    It's like the ES3's don't exist - I can't find any reviews or impressions online after extensive Google searching.  I'm looking for some decently sound isolating phones that are much more portable than my M50's (IEM's aren't my cup of tea), and these look like decent candidates over the...

    PC Speaker placement

    This is good info. The mention of angling speakers "toe out" is interesting, since traditionally speakers are said to be toed in. Mine are "in" now, but I'm going to try different placements.

    Bike to Work Week

    Yeah, I forgot about folding bikes. I've never ridden one, but they are great if you take metro or bus. You can keep them under your desk too.

    Bike to Work Week

    No doubt, there can be several challenges. Everyone's circumstances are different, but although some have it easier there is always a workaround. I'm lucky in that I have my own office (and they let me park my bike in it!) but like most people we don't have showers. Showers are low on the list...
