I saw these UE 10s on eBay two days ago and thought if i could have UE in Irvine, about 35 minutes from my house, take my ear impressions then they could make customs to perfectly fit my ears and this might be a good deal. so i called UE customer service and to my surprise UE said no can do...

The glimmering

use the crosswalk and look both ways

The truth be told It's very upsetting. Why do our ears hastily associate louder with (this false sense of) better sound quality? IMO, that's why it's so important to ensure the levels are exactly the same when one does any serious A/B comparisons. Because on first blush louder even just...

Looky here... the 6moons Zana Deux review. Now I need to read it.

Well, I've been waiting to get this new shuffle since October. It's a long story, but in a nutshell I've been waiting for my circuit city rewards coupon that finally arrived today on the third mailing attempt and in-between attempts they made me wait to ensure it was "truly" lost. But, in fact...

The XRCD mastering transport (feels like a textured metal--a bit sandpaperish) This is the same JVC transport mechanism of the XRCD mastering process which, is only available in the Reimyo player. It also uses the XRCD2 K2 extended processor (again only available in the 777). And the...

The Beatle cooking show hosted by Sir Paul Right!

Here’s one of my guitars. Martin D-28 (1963)

Probably one of the best "true" crime movies I've ever seen. A riveting and chilling thriller, if you like this type of flick a must see.

I’ll start by saying what are the odds that the course of events would put me in the right place at the right time…. And here’s how it began… Before bed my wife said please get some coffee and soy milk and get in bed soon. I said OK, but dillydallied and eventually headed to the local...

Hope you have a great Birthday with lots of cheer. Happy B-Day!

I've been looking for the past 45 minutes and can't locate an Apple Shuffle 2GB 1st generation. I've seen a few on eBay, but I would prefer to buy one new from an established and reliable e-tailer. Does anyone know where one could be found? Help

As the title asks, will you watch the SuperBowl in High Definition? And additionally, if not will you watch it in standard digital, analog, or not at all? Or are you waiting to get your HD receiver before game day? I'll be watching the game at home on my Pioneer PDP-5070HD with...

When you can how fast are you willing to drive generally? I drive about 85 mph when there isn't any traffic, I'm alone and no cops in plain view, but most of the time under 65 mph due to LA traffic.

Do OSU show-up to play?

Look what the UPS man made me sign for today….. I am not worthy, not worthy, not worthy….. Props to Iron_Dreamer for helping me make this score

I’ve been thinking about purchasing the HD600s to compare against my HD650s and hear which one my ear prefers and works best in my set-up. Yet today I found that some have swapped replacement element drivers. I am thinking about popping out the HD650 drivers and popping in the HD580/600...

It doesn’t seem appealing to my taste buds. I think this is taking the coffee crazy a bit too far.

I'm getting one. Can't wait until they arrive at my local Circuit City because I've got a $60 discount coupon there. Anyone one else getting one or thinking about it? Based on what I've read the old shuffles had the best sound quality out of all the ipods. I hope the same holds true with...

Here’s my take so far… Enhanced Definition (ED): To my knowledge, most channels are standard digital and supposedly those channels and progressive scan DVD players look best on an ED television. High Definition (HD): On the few HD channels a HD television will look 10 to 15% better than a...
