So I was shopping today and saw a Creative Zen Nano plus and did not recognize the name at all, but it was 1GB and it was 150 bucks and i was in the market for a 1GB flash player, so I went home and checked here and DAPreview and google, and found almost nothing about it. I have since checked...

Thank you soo much! It is fixed and the channels work perfectly, and now my beloved headphones are fixed, thanks again.

Ok so i have had these A500's for quite time and have been very very happy with them until a few days ago when my mom called me downstairs and i pulled them out of the amp they where hooked into and complete bent the plug. So i cut it off and bough a new 1/8" stereo connector from radioshack...

So my karma took a 3 foot tumble off of my desk and landed on the wheel and now the wheel is off track or something and will no longer function. Am I just going to have to deal w/o a wheel now or does anyone know how I can go about fixing it, without ruining the Karma.. thanks

Hey Thaddy, you can find those banana holders at your local wally world. I picked mine up for a measly 4.44. Just look in the kitchen accessory section (should save you the hours of time i spent wandering aimlessly looking for them at my local wally world) Quote: Originally Posted by...

im not quite sure how much they are canadian, but the Audio Technica A500's are a steal at 100 dollars at audiocubes.com. I have heard both the 570's and i own the the A500's and the trounce them in every single way. I would hardily consider not getting the 570's and getting something like the...

I second the recommendation for the A900's, I have the 500's but have read that the 900's are better in every single way. Plus might as well get the 900's so you don't have to wonder what you are missing from the 900's (like i am at the moment, wish i would have sprung for the 900's in the first...

Wasn't sure where to put this but here goes. I was just curious about those who use headphones to watch DVD's on their computer. I'm wondering what, if any, virtual surround do you use? PowerDVD offers Dolby Headphone and TruXTsurround, and my Nvidia offeres cinesurround. I currently use TruXT...

I own a Chaintech, and listened to my buddies Revo with my same setup and could honestly not tell a difference, I would put them very close together as far as SQ goes. So if your looking to save some bones, go with the Chaintech.

bought my chrome banana hanger for $3.88US from Wally world.

I use EAC to rip to FLAC and to Lame APS (for my portable, i simply cannot decide what music to get rid of, in order to change my portable to lossless) all one step process through MAREO a thirdparty plugin for EAC to rip to two or more formats in one sitting. I love it.

Here is a pic of my portable setup.

doh, it was reading my cache i guess, i didn't refresh it, but yes that was the pic i was referring to ah ha.. found another link to it. Pic

Don't know how many of you have seen this pic. THere is a rather large thread that was started on the anandtech forums about this subject.

how do you put a background picture as the playlist background?

hey, im curious where you got the asio4all.zip file, i can only find the exe which doesn't allow me to dump the dll file. EDIT: N/M i got ASIO4All working, however I can't get it to work at 44.1 or at 96khz, for some reason it will only work at 48khz. I have no idea why.

I have yet to use any grados, but my Audio Technica's are great for rock, at least IMO. And they are extremely comfy. So if its comfort and rock music you want, i would try those. If you find you don't like them, they will easily sell for 5 or 10 dollars less than you paid for them in the FS/FT...

anyone know how I could convert all my FLAC files to this new lossless AAC without losing my tags by converting them to WAV first?

what about the ATH-A900's?? They are about 200, don't require an amp and im using its little brother, the A500's for gaming and i love them. I listened to my friends Senn 500's and i didn't like them at all, they had a lot of bass, way too much bass IMO.
