$300-400 range for speakers
I just wanted to let you guys know I went to Guitar Center and listened to their speakers. I heard KRK Rokit 5, Rokit 6, Yamaha HS50M, and Mackie MR5. The Yamaha would be my favorite with a sub because of how clean and forward the presentation is, but they have NO bass without a sub and I don't...- GSurge

$300-400 range for speakers
Already the speakers + sub (if any) are going to be taking up 30% of my work area, so I can't sacrifice any more space for an amp. The rooms are just too cramped. I listened to my friend's Yahama HS50M speakers... and WOW. Even my old v3 darth beyers didn't compare to those. It was very... -

How to connect 3.5mm surround speakers to toslink on Mac?
Thanks for the help. Would it be cheaper to get one of those or buy new speakers? If it is more economical to buy a multi-channel DAC or av amp, do you have any specific recommendations for which product to get him?- GSurge

How to connect 3.5mm surround speakers to toslink on Mac?
He's got a Mac Pro. It has optical digital audio input and output toslink ports. But the speakers he's using are like this: Is there some way to plug those speakers into the Mac Pro's toslink ports? I assume some converter box would be needed.- GSurge

How to connect 3.5mm surround speakers to toslink on Mac?
Friend of mine has a situation that I can't find a solution for. His logitech speakers plug in using 3.5mm surround (the green, orange, black kind) jacks, but his Mac only has toslink inputs available. Is there some piece of hardware he can use to convert between?- GSurge

Latest HF fraud: I GOT SCAMMED! Everybody read, please.
Glad to see you got the money back. Was this user actually "hacked," or is he just BSing after being caught? I find it hard to believe that someone would steal a relatively unknown head-fier's account to scam people on head-fi.- GSurge

As a fellow upstate NY college-goer, I can't imagine having room in my dorm room for the Darkvoice, haha. I mean, I'm sure it'll fit somewhere, but don't go nuts with a system.

One side of Shure SE530 louder than the other
Hi, I haven't had much luck searching for this problem. A few people complaining about it, but no solutions. The right cup is much, much quieter than the left. It also appears to be missing the little white mesh piece that is present in the other nozzle. I used the little cleaning tool to check...- GSurge

Profit vs Community
Maybe I'm just a chump, but I have always resold at what I bought at or less, even if I could get more. If I found it for really cheap through a different venue, I might sell it here for regular price, but I consider that most of the time the headphones stay in this community in some way.- GSurge
