I cannot get my iTunes to play more than one song at a time. It plays a song then stops. I'm sure it must be a setting somewhere but I cannot find it. Anyone?- kentamcolin

Serious DSLR: Canon or Nikon?
I'm about to invest in a new digital SLR camera system. After years of using Canon (EOS-1 & 620) I'm pitching (actually selling off) my film gear for all digital. I'm also planning on new lenses, upgrading what I have been using. I do have a 100mm macro that I love and plan to keep, but I'm sure...- kentamcolin

Changing cables on high end Grado Cans?
Anyone have experience with the change in sound of the high end Grado cans with different cables? I'm likely going to buy some GS1000's and am wondering about the cable. There are not as many threads about upgrading cables on Grado's, probably since it involves opening them up and soldering new...- kentamcolin

Wife wants an IPod...what to buy??
My wife put it on me to buy her an Ipod. I know nothing about these so I need some advice. She doesn't care about color display, video or any of that. There is the new Nano or a even perhaps a used original Ipod. What is the difference in all the models? Do the newer ones actually sound better...- kentamcolin

New Musical Fidelity X-RayV3 on the way...
I've been intrigued by this player for some time. I found a few reviews and they were extremely positive.

I'm assembling an office system and am considering CD source possibilities. Headphones will be my Senn HD650's and the amp will be some creation from Craig at Eddie Current.

Vinyl Heaven
Well after running the gamut on vinyl rigs I've come full circle. I was recently able to sell my Thorens at a nice profit and found a great buy on a VPI Scout with upgraded Scoutmaster platter & 300 RPM motor.
