So our in-house printer is maintained by Konica Minolta staff who deliver ink and misc. stuff like you would order pizza; we get ink free, as part of our contract. When we run out, we order another cartridge of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, or Black (K). To make a long story short, their service...

This next piece is now in my top 10 of all time. It is The Dave Brubeck Quartet’s 1963 performance At Carnegie Hall. It is a Sony double CD selection that has been remastered. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...EL._SS500_.jpg To start, I should note that I am relatively new to the...

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...NL._SS500_.jpg I recently picked up Kill To Get Crimson by Mark Knopfler, and have been loving it ever since. As most readers here already know, Mark was the leader in the rock band Dire Straits. I will just say he is famous for a reason; the man has...

*Can the 160 GB Ipod Classic be used without Cover Flow? Text only? *Can you retro-fit an old version of the ipod software that doesn't have all the battery and hard drive issues, and not install the new ones?

I saw this link on Bel Cantos site that reviews the Top 100 Rock Albums of All Time. What is interesting about this list is the rather elaborate categorization. Link Text exerpt: In a world where record companies seem happy to sell consumers songs by the single via a...

OK so I just got my Bel Canto Dac3 and am loving every minute I have with it. I am using a Nordost toslink cable to an iRiver discman. When switching to USB, it appears to lose a little bit of dynamics and detail, though its still very good. But this got me thinking that I may pursue a...

I was browsing dbpoweramps site (haven't been on in at least a year) and it appears they now edge out Exact Audio Copy for error-free ripping! They have accurate rip, among other things. Whats really awesome is it appears you can rip directly to Apple Lossless. I have been using E.A.C., and...

So Im coming home from work Friday, looking forward to my 2nd weekend from the job I just started. What do I find in the mail? Jury Duty of course. Damn you Murphy! Whats more, it said the trial I (may) be selected for is expected to last 8 weeks. Now I get to tell my boss I may be gone for 2...

Listening to the 4th Headfi.org Podcast, you can hear the AKG rep discuss the K1000. Quote: He says: "Right around the time the K1000 was discontinued there was a huge clamoring for it...I think we've done some work towards basically creating a successor to that product..." Anyone...

I haven't heard anything about the Ear HP4 for a while. Is this design still available / desirable? Does the B52 render it obsolete? I would be using it with HD650s, and possibly L3000 later on, if I find a pair. It would be fed from a Lavry DA10 (which I am buying very soon). I figured Id be...

Apple said they would post more details about the 100 dollar store credit for early iphone buyers. Its Thursday and I don't see it yet. Am I missing it or are they just jerks and keeping me waiting the entire week?

OK, I love headphones, but I know nothing about the crappy phones with microphones attached. My friend insists on them for skype phone service, etc. I gave him my old M audio transit, as he needed a sound card. (Icemat brand with 2 mini plugs, one mic one headphones) Problem is there is only...

Thought this was worth posting. I just got an email from Music Direct. One of the upcoming MOFI August releases is the Gold CD to Little Feat's debut album. Looks interesting, and its one I don't have yet.

ZU has a pair of Druids w/ a mini-method sub, priced @ 3K $ on ebay. They have 6 pairs at the price. That is basically a free subwoofer w/ reg. priced druids (approx.) I'd be all over it if I had the money and hadn't already bought a mini-method myself...
