I'm currently without an internet connection (just moved, decided not to continue with dial-up), and am looking for advice on wireless high speed access. I am not interested in cable, DSL, or other types of services. Just hoping the computer gurus here will lend a hand. A nearby coffee house...

Happy Birthday man! mmm... grass.

(note: I spent maybe 15 minutes with smushed bowls and RS-1, the modded Sennheiser Yellows grinch sent were clearly better; smushed bowls sound tipped up on top and wooly in bass by comparison. I only tried the RS-2 with bowls and smushed bowls, and that headphone is hella wolly. Something that...

Best looking DIY amps ever Have a good one man.

I'm sure this isn't a new idea but its rattling around my head. The definition of language is essentially a form of communication through written or verbal means. So why doesn't that apply to music? It conveys emotion and ideas better than words can, someone who is fluent in music can express...

TV doesn't count

...instead of allowing the components to sound their best. The Brickwall on the other hand provides protection without getting in the way, I dig that ****. Then came The Maestrobator project and I decided that since I wasn't restricted to a chassis I'd go all out and try to assemble something...

I'm currently trying w2002s (courtesy of smokey) and have tried r10s (courtesy of edwin), I'm finding that I like the effect of a soundstage behind my ears - as if the headstage goes farther back in my head. Haven't had that from a dynamic headphone before, but the HP-1 layered notes in between...

First time I've ever seen Norah Jones perform, and ******* she's hot. Like HOT hot. When I saw Shakira and the rhythm of her hips on SNL my jaw dropped - it was like watching a snake charmer only I was the snake. I was completely hypnotized and I'm completely serious. I didn't really think I'd...

...person, is depressingly rare) but this system got it the most right. Sounds float in space with air and wholeness and speed and believability and ******* its sexy. I commented to Edwin that I could listen to Blue all day on that setup and he responded that he's found himself losing hours to...

I got an email from someone about a post I made about a topic I've been discussing and wanted to clarify something in regards to the member of trade issues (in case others were unclear): Quote: "Member of the Trade" includes manufacturers, dealers, distributors, manufacturer's...

to clear the debate up (all first hand information from someone who's looked at the amps): Differences between Gold Reference/Maestro and SHA-1: Different board. Values for headphone signal path and low voltage power supply are different but the circuit is the same. Gold Reference...

...taping to a stuttered bass line and my thoughts flying. It's been one of those weeks - where I wished I had more money and former friends and less ****. Which, of course, is everybody's life. At least some of the time anyway. I've lost track of time, there's a stack of CDs on the desk and...

...citizen 18 years or older you have the opportunity to participate in the greatest tradition the united states has: voting. sam adams pissed off a **** load of people and george washington lost a lot of battles for this, so pay them the honor they deserve by registering, checking out what...

note: i am not selling anything. consider this more of a social experiment for the advancement of my kind. i might send a couple of thank you notes, depending on whether it'd cost more than a dollar. unopened packages of ramen (except for the creamy chicken bastardization) are also welcome.

yeah this has been discussed numerous times before but i'm reviving it for the sake of new insight, friendly debate, and feedback. so a new friend comes over tonight and sees my collection of music, then comments on how large it is. i mentioned that since i've been moving a lot lately about...

...i won't be one of those hardcore dudes who spends a lot on cables, i won't have an audio only room, i won't tweak my components, i won't spend a **** load on power products. all of it long past, and along the way i've learned a lot and enjoyed quality music reproduction. my audiophile growth...

after considering how ****ing cool your guys' meetings seem i'm thinking of taking a vacation and making the trip. i would be bringing a friend, who may or may not make it to the shin-dig. so here's my dilema: i've never been to texas and i'm wondering if its a place worth visiting. i'm not...

hey moderators, i was wondering, would it be possible to make a sticky thread for best cd player under $500 in the amps/sources forum, best headphones under $100 and grado vs. sennheiser under the headphones section? may help on multiple topics, and it will be easily accessible to new comers...
