Hello :)   Been a while since I posted here, but I keep checking regularly for updates!   Recently, I decided to revive this old Technics SL-DD2 with a Stanton cartdridge. I hooked it up to our old Technics amp (the model escapes me at the moment) but it still sound as good as I remember...

Title says it all, link is following :   http://www.ultimae.com/en/news/404.html   (even tho there's 404.html at the end of the link, it's valid!).   Can hardly wait, who's getting it too?!

Just a heads-up : Solar Fields' latest is now available for pre-order, the first of two releases this year on Ultimae :   http://www.ultimae.com/en/releases/473/index.html   Pre-ordered my copy! :D

So I finally acquired a new laptop. Samsung r580, Core i3, 4 gigs RAM, Nvidia 310m (I can play Half Life 2 again! :D ), but I have a strange problem with iTunes, one that weirdly, I've had with another, older computer, although this old computer was running Vista.   Ripping CDs is very slow...

Well, things have been moving fast for Ultimae! After the H.U.V.A. Network news of a new Live e-release album, they've just put the new CBL album "Interloper" for pre-order : http://ultimae.com/en/releases/460/index.html Caaaaaan't waiiiit!!

Ultimae announced a download-only (e-release, as they call it) of H.U.V.A. Network - Live At Glastonbury Festival, out on May 17th 2010: "Magnus Birgersson aka Solar Fields (on the left, happy and mystifying the audience) and Vincent Villuis aka AES Dana (on the right, checking soundcard...

Hello Does anyone know of an online store (either US or Canada) that has the new 2009 replacement cable in stock and ship for a decent price? The only one I found, is SoundEarphones.com, but they charge 20$ for shipping to Canada (the cable IS 20$), which is unacceptable. Even Sleek's...

Greetings! In what could be one of the most amazing years for Ultimae (although 2009 will be hard to beat!), Ultimae presents us a first album from newcomer Hybrid Leisureland titled "Scroll Slide". Pre-order here : Scroll Slide (reservation) - HYBRID LEISURELAND Following later this...

There's another forum that I visit quite regularly, that I believe also use vBulletin (there's no mention of it anywhere that I could find but the layouts and options are similar) that has a neat feature : next to the original poster's name is the date of the original post. I wonder if this...

Greetings Back in December, I bought myself a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28. I wanted something with more options than my old Lumix DMC-LZ5 but not a DSLR (I can't, for the life of me, LEARN to use those). Now I have the option to shoot a RAW file instead of a JPG (or both if I need to). I've...

Heya guys This is why I love small label... I have bought every release that Ultimae Records has ever put out (minus Aftermath) - I love their stuff! Anyway, 2 weeks ago, I started to re-rip my collection to ALAC. I started with all their albums. Comes the time to re-rip Carbon Based...

And Josh Friedman made quite a nice blogpost about the whole thing. Warning, pretty raw, big vent in there: I find your lack of faith disturbing: BOY IN THE BUBBLE Honestly, I can't say I am quite surprised, but I would have really liked to see a 3rd season, at lease give Josh the...

Great. "We are excited to announce that in early July eMusic will begin rolling out a major addition to our music catalog. The change will add nearly 200,000 tracks to the catalog, including many of the most loved names in music." They changed all their plans and boosted their prices too...

Before anything else... I take no credit for this. The original mod has been performed by -=Germania=-. I was simply curious, and decided to do it on my own pair of ATH-ES7 and took pictures detailing the process while -=Germania=- was giving me much needed advice. What will this mod...

Greetings So lately I've been thinking of building a "cheap", dedicated music server that would also double as my Skype "phone" (I have Skype/Regular Phone headsets that I use for calls). I will be using iTunes and use my iPod Touch to Remotely control it. I'm also thinking of re-ripping...

Greetings! As an owner of the wonderful ATH-ES7, I've seen so many threads going on about people wondering where to buy a real pair of these or how to find out what a fake pair of ES7 looks like. I thought about doing two things with this thread. The first, show the various pictures that...

I just bought an HPP5 case to put my ES7 and iPod Touch in it while traveling. While the case is perfect for my needs, very sturdy, it came with a feature I am not too hot about - new shoe smell, inside. I don't really want my headphones to start smelling like this. Any tips on what I could...

Greetings Any custom DIYer here that makes a LOD for the 2nd Gen iPod Touch? I have one made by Turbo, but for the Classic, and I'm looking for a similarly built LOD for my Touch 2nd Gen. Thanks

Greetings Well, the cables on my beloved q-jays finally almost ripped off the earpieces, and I am awaiting warranty info from Jays' support (hopefully it is covered...), so meanwhile I have been using the AKG k414p as my backup pair of headphones. While the sound, to my ears, isn't as...

Greetings I've been looking for a while for something which I thought would be simple to find : a lanyard for the iPod Nano. Now, I know the 3rd Gen had Lanyard Headphones, but that's not what I am looking for (my headphones are fine ). I just wish I'd find something that would let me...

Hello I've had my Custom 3 for 2 days, however, at the moment, I was less than pleased. I am getting a seal by only using the big dual flange. Not an issue per say, as they are comfortable, however : 1) Where's the soundstage? The sound is even MORE in my head then what I can remember...

... How about exchanging ours Miis via our Wii email, named with our username here? Since I don't think posting our Wii emails right in this thread is a good idea, I think what could work is just leave a message here and people who want your Mii will private message? Head-Fi Miis For The Win!

I have circa 150 of these from a few years back. Not only I liked the sound of these back then way more than what was the current standard for mp3s, 128k, but I got into collecting them, buying all different kinds. They were my fav portable option. They're on display on top of my CD library...

Today's the time to play all your favorite 808 State albums! Ex:El is still probably one of my all-time favorite albums in my collection, followed by Don Solaris! 808state.com invites everyone who has a last.fm account to play their music all day! Any one else like this band?

Heya After trying out numerous pair of canalphones, earbuds and headphones, I missed the bass on the DT770 too much. I listen to a lot of electronica, most of which is down tempo, cinematic kind of music which sounds amazing with deep and booming bass. Yes. I figured it out, I AM a basshead...
