software to organize music?
Last time I tried WMP10, it sounded better than iTunes to me. I use iTunes to organize my music. I have almost 60GB's now, and the album browsing feature is pretty useful to find albums I've forgotten about.- geniebomb

vista, more of a GRAPHICS card hog than xp?
People are getting a little heated here. Really, how much of a difference will there be, at most, in switching from XP to Vista and vice versa?- geniebomb

vista, more of a GRAPHICS card hog than xp?
I think that Vista is more hardware accelerated than XP, so yes it uses more graphics power when you're on the desktop. However, my CSE friend told me that Vista isn't simulating your desktop when you're playing games, i.e. the fact that you're running Aero on the desktop doesn't matter when...- geniebomb

Power off "Thump" Good or Bad?
Thanks for the replies guys. Yikes: It's good that I have my volume down pretty low then (9 o'clock). It seems that there isn't a lot of knowledge on these power on/off thumps. I've seen people on the DIY boards give tips on how to get rid of them, but nothing definitive on why they would...- geniebomb

Power off "Thump" Good or Bad?
Hey guys, I tried posting this in the speaker/cable/everything else forum, but I guess there's not enough people to get an answer on this. I have a new set of Swans M10 2.1 speakers, which give a big "thump" noise when I turn them off. I turn them off at night using the power switch on...- geniebomb

Subwoofer "thumps" when I turn it off
Do you know if the thumping is actually bad for the woofer? -
Subwoofer "thumps" when I turn it off
Hi all, I'm new to speakers; just got a Swans M10 2.1 set just a few days ago. I'm loving them so far. It's a different listening mood when I use the Swans when compared to using my Senn HD580's. I have my speakers in my bedroom, and they have this blue light around the volume switch that...- geniebomb

Headphones vs. speakers
I just recently bought a set of Swans M10 2.1 speakers, and I am really enjoying them. The amount of bass coming from these is overwhelming though, compared to the HD580's that I normally listen to. I've turned the bass almost all the way down on the M10's, and these are even supposed to be...- geniebomb

Wow this is hilarious. Somehow I had the idea that it was real pictures, instead of drawn pictures. -
Charlotte, NC MEET
I'm interested in meeting. I've never been to a meet before, and still haven't delved that deeply into hi-fi audio. It'd be interesting to hear other gear. I'm working in Charlotte for the summer though, so I could only come on the weekends.- geniebomb

Need help : Ibasso Boa vs Headroom Total Bithead
I own a total bithead, and I have to say, there doesn't seem to be a difference if I use the bithead or go straight from the laptop headphone out to my HD580's. I did however, notice a difference between iPod headphone out and the bithead. However, most of my listening isn't done critically, nor...- geniebomb
