Album of the Month for July: Battles - Gloss Drop   I found myself listening to this a lot throughout the month.  The entire album contains so much energy and bright tempo, that I can't help but smile and move to it (which helped out a lot during the long drives I had to take).  I especially...

About eight inches here in the Capital Region of NY.  We're supposed to get another foot of snow/ice tomorrow/in the morning.  I'm just hoping my studio lights come on time.

You wouldn't believe the number of arguments I've had with a friend and a cousin over sauce or no sauce on steaks.  That's right, arguments.  Personally, I am on team no sauce.   Quote:

Quote: I believe what OP was trying to do is getting the ball rolling.  A simple search on Head-Fi for "classical music" yields thousands of threads, most of them similar to one another, and from what I've read, when people ask, "What kind of classical will I be interested in?" the...

I found Sugarkang's post to be very insightful, while it was still up.  The great thing about directions is that that is all they are.  Like a recipe in a cookbook, you can choose to follow the directions or change up a few things.   I probably won't follow them to a "T," but at least I know...

Quote:   I work in retail, so I've met all kinds of people, old and young.  There are plenty who are honest and upstanding, but it surprises me that out of ten customers, four will do either of the following: rudely ignore your greetings, try to swap prices, blatantly steal items...

Foobar2k shows the folders how you want it to show, just like iTunes.  As you stated, you need to change the folder's name in order for it to show in Foobar2k the way you want it to.  You have to do the same with iTunes, only you do it in iTunes.  It's the same number of steps.   Don't get...

If you right click on an album/file in iTunes and click "Get Info," then go to "Sorting," you can change the sorting options.  For example, David Bowie is by default listed in the "D" section, however I changed it so it would come up Bowie, David.  It still shows up as David Bowie in the...

I switched to Chrome last year and it just feels...  Smoother. I like both, but I use Chrome a lot more often.   Quote: I own a Macbook, so it's iTunes for me.  I tried to do that Foobar2k for Mac through Wine thing and it was just a hassle.  However, I also use Cog for my FLAC...

I unofficially joined HeadFi about half a year ago when I bought my Cowon J3.  I figured I'd want some decent headphones and looking through the ABI forums and the iaudiophile.net posts, I saw a bunch of headphones and brands that I had never heard of before, so I started skimming through the...

I found the comments below to be worse than the headphones...   "I think they're cheap."  <.<

Good call.  I bought the Shure SRH840s and they sound fantastic!  Especially at the $130 price I paid.  I'm not sure what the " build quality issue" you're referring to is, though.  If it's because of comfort, I find them to be very comfortable and have fallen asleep with them on a few times.
