Hi guys, I know this forum is traditionally used for DIY amps and the like, but I have a problem and I don't know where to go for help. Here's the deal: I own a set of Event TR-5 Studio monitors, that I like quite a bit. In the moving process between college and home, some sort of internal...

Hello all, I recently got a set of rollers like these and want some good music to motivate me for my winter indoor roadie workouts. I usually listen to slower less energetic acoustic guitar, jason mraz, howie day etc. What music gets you going? Pumps you up? What could motivate you to ride...

Does anyone know where i could buy such a thing? If not, what would be the cheapest and easiet way to make something of the nature for use with a lower-than-low-fi speaker setup for my girlfriend? In other words, I'd like to convert her sound cards 1/8" stereo jack into a pair of terminals to...

I originally started another thread in regards to the Swan M200's. However, I've come to the realization that they do not meet my size requirements. Therefore, I'm looking for some tips on a pair of good quality, powered monitors under $200 and under 11" in height. I'm looking to hook these...

Hello all, I just bought my WONDERFUL fourth generation 20gb iPod. So far I really like it, and I'm working on reorganizing my music collection for ease of use with the iPod. 90% of my music is stuff downloaded from archive.org. Some of it I have encoded to Mp3, others I left in flac/ape...

I've decided to spend this much on an amp, and am currently looking at the gilmore lite. Are there any other options that I've missed? Not much seems to be at this price point. Lots above, and lots below. Let me know

Where would be the best (cheapest) place to buy both of these products. I dont wanna pay twice for shipping, and i dont want to deal with shady resellers. Who do you guys like?

Anyone want to clue me in? How is it supposed to be pronounced?

Hello, I've been finding myself browsing and listening to the works of the artists at archive.org more and more. What kind of headphones would you reccomend for live shows?

Hello, I would like all of your opinions on which are the best. I know the EMU 1212m is a bit of the flavor of the week. However, I want to know if there is a USB sound card that provides equal or better sound. In general, are the USB sound cards better or worse? I woulda thought the...

Does anyone have pics? I cant find any, and im curious as to what this thing looks like. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, I'm ready to embark on my first DIY endeavor. I have compiled this list (Excel needed) with the great help of ipsilonsound, MisterX, and most of all ITZBITZ. Please let me know whether i picked everything correctly, all the parts are compatible, and that I have enough of each...

I have read lots of suggestions for excellent C1/C4 caps on the forums. But there hasnt been much talk about the rest of the caps. I've been going by the elvencraft/tangent reccomendation (Mostly BC MKT/MKP series). Are there better options? Does it matter? I appreciate you guys's input. Thanks!

Hey guys, with the new sky high price of the Perreaux's I'm kind of leaning torwards these two amps to pair with my HD650's. One is tube, one is solid state. I would probably build my own PPA, just because I enjoy such things What are your opinions on amps around $350? What are my other...

I have this quirk about having to have the "best". I was wondering how long the HD600 was around before it was replaced by the 650? How long do you guys think the 650 will last as the flagship model? Obviously, there are expensive electrostatics and such, but im just talking about Sennheisers...

I felt the best place to put this was in the headphone section, however, it ecompasses a broader range of equipment. Basically, as a poor soon to be college student, I am looking for the best bang for the buck setup for $500. This includes: Headphones, Amp, Soundcard. For $500, which...

Hey guys, I decided I'd like to get the Sennheiser 595's. I was planning to buy from headphone.com, but if you guys have a better/cheaper place to buy, let me know. Hopefully these will suit me well. My next questions are as followed: I plan to use these at college, and I am building a...
