Hello!   Has anyone else ordered one of the new metal Apple Lightning Docks? ($50)    Mine arrived yesterday and this seems to sound bigger, more spacious, with clearer bass, and overall more authority over my iPhone 5S using the same volume settings within the music app. I assume the amps...

I broke down my PC for an upgrade and i noticed last week (this is really weird) but there's mold growing inside the female serial-looking connector on the 0404's breakout cable. I'm wondering if there's anyone who sells 0404 breakout cables, or if anyone in here has one to sell me...

this is for a friend, i promised i'd look into this for him because I apparently have experience with hi-fi by building my own speakers and such. But about him, he already has a AV-710 card and has $500 to spend on some new cans. He listens to indie rock (got me into it) and the occasional...

Funny asking this question for an audio device designed for recording, but I have a simple microphone that connects with a 1/8" plug. From anybody who's tried, is it worth investing in an adapter? will it give me the capability to record from the mic to where I can use it to chat in MSN and...

I'll try to make this to the point, this is how i want patchmix to operate. Analog outputs > Amp > speakers Digital spdif/optical output have a stereo mixed down to mono channel > Receiver > subwoofer Right now it's setup as Analog outputs > Amp > Sub > Speakers I'd like to seperate...

I've been hearing people call card's in pro-review's and at some recording stores "audio interface cards" like the E-MU line. The audio-interface card's being not engineered at all twoards games or passing through DTS streams etc. What do you call YOUR card?

double post---delele/ignore this thread please.

Just for ****s and giggles, i switched to the ASIO .EXE version and my CPU usage when using the Foobar resampler PPHS at 192 with ultra mode checked, went from 20% down to 1-2%, which is a little more CPU that DS at 44.1 (0-1%) but it's still way good.. I noticed too though, that in the task...

I grabbed the latest version of PowerDVD Deluxe version. I put in one of my DVD-A discs that has DTS/DD and MLP tracks. Just for kicks, i clicked on the MLP track, and guess what, it played! If i do the same in windvd it hisses like playing back a DTS track on a DD-only decoder. So then I...

I see some people say the digital outs on the E-MU vs the 710 vs the Soundstorm are all different. I don't see how this can technically be possible for digital PCM to sound different, but at any rate.. I have the E-MU 0404 and the Soundstorm 24/96 (ALC658) Optical IN and OUT from my mobo. I...

And here's the truth in audio: -- 1. The speakers represent about 90% of the quality of sound you will get from your audio system. --A speaker takes an electrical signal, moves air to convert it to sound, and then sounds like a real person. Incredibly hard to do well. 2. The source...

I've been told q-tips are a big no-no cause they push wax back twoard your eardrum if you inside the canal, which isnt good cause it can solidify and become hard to remove. What are some other options? besides ear drops? I've heard put your head on a heating blanket and after a short while...
