UE11 Fit Question
I was going to post this in the big thread, but I only have a week or so to have mods done and I didn't want it to get lost. I just got my UE11's back from Ultimate Ears, having sent them in for fit issues. Anyway, the fit seems fine for the most part, but when I open my jaw all the way or...- nfusion770

Sansa Fuze problems?
Just wondering if anyone has heard of any Sansa Fuze problems. I purchased one last week (8gb) and after about an hour it just stopped working. I tried re-setting but it was just dead. I was having second thoughts about whether I needed it or not anyway, so I just returned it for a refund. I...- nfusion770

Is the font on the 3g Nano larger than 1g/2g?
I'm researching a 3g for my mom who has trouble seeing the text on her 1g Nano. I used to own all 3 versions but never simultaneously. Also, I assume the Video/ Classic ipod text is larger than the Nano, but can anyone confirm this for me- that could be the route to go. Anyway, I'd appreciate it...- nfusion770

Should Itunes be opened to other devices?
I have been using aac exclusively for the last few years. I guess I imagined most devices didn't support aac so I kind of ignored non Apple devices until recently. Now I own a Sansa clip and a Sony a818 and I think they definitely have some advantages over their ipod alternatives (I especially...- nfusion770

Can someone re-terminate a stock 650 cable for me?
Not sure if this gets posted here or in the FS section. I don't solder and really am not interested in learning to. I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to balance a stock 650 cable for me. Of course I'll cover shipping, parts and few bucks for your efforts. Otherwise I guess if you have...- nfusion770

Why doesn't every headphone come with detachable cables?
I just picked up another pair HD580s and love the fact that, without further expense, I can test them with my stock 650 cable and my balanced RAL cable. It's such a convenience it makes me never want own another headphone without detachable cables (not literally of course). I wonder what it...- nfusion770

Directv or Dish Network?
I know this has probably been asked a million times, but I want some real world input. I have Charter. Last fall we attempted to cut some expenses and dropped our cable/internet bill from $150 to about $110. In January, it rose to $125 but I didn't call. Last month it was bumped to $150 with...- nfusion770

"Mini"sota Meet Impressions
Thanks to Nick Knutson, Klarus, asebastian0, and Demonmnky for showing up and making for an entertaining Saturday afternoon. In hindsight, I wish I would have spent more time listening to equipment rather than talking AT people, but it was fun talking about head-fi behind it's back . Lots of...- nfusion770

Splitting a single digital input?
I am thinking about trying out an Oppo dvd player for SACD's (toslink and spdif), but I am already using the digital in on my DAC (spdif) for my computer. I would like to use both with the same DAC and I don't want to have to flip cables if I don't have to. I know I could use RCA cables on the...- nfusion770

Is the E500 the SE530 or vice versa?
I purchased my E500s from TTVJ in late July, so they are from one of the first few shipments. I read about Shures product updates- E500 renamed the SE530. So for some reason, the other day I was looking at my E500s and noticed an imprint on the back of the first mini adapter (the end of the...- nfusion770

How many times have you sold only to re-purchase?
I just bought a pair of hd650s- the only headphone I have ever heard that I did not appreciate (other than the Grado SR225s). My first go around my newbie brain was looking for its sound and was accustomed to the Grado RS-1s. I just could not get over the distance of the 650s and sold them off...- nfusion770

Which Darth Beyers?
Alright, so I bought a pair of used v1 Darth Beyers and love them. The pair I have (paduak, 1m black max) are very nice, but the meter cord is a bit short for my purposes and I am pondering an upgrade to a pair of v3s. The money I would spend for an extension cord is better spent on a new pair-...- nfusion770

HR-2 is unbeleivable.
I have compared the sr-71, supermacro, and the supermini with the presonus central station amps, I think the presonus is the best of the 4 (though very close to the SR-71).
