    Question about how to export FLAC files from either JRiver or PONO and then drop them into a google folder to share via email or some other means with others.

    Hi folks - I'm sure this is not the right forum, but I'll start here, knowing how most of you are very computer savvy - Moderators, please feel free to move this to the correct forum.     Here's my question:  Could someone please give an 'idiot's' guide/crash course on how export FLAC files...

    Rca mini to lightning cable - suggestions?

    To hook up my SR-71A to my iPod touch 5 - I've been away awhile. Is there something reasonably priced that exists? I'm currently using an Apple female 30-pin to lightning adapter together with an old ALO docking cable but I would like to use something a bit neater. Advice?

    30-pin lightning adapter question

    I've been away for awhile, so please send me to the right thread if it's already been answered, but my question is, is there such an adapter (aftermarket or otherwise?) that will fit an ipod touch 5 WITH the case on it, so that I can hook it up to my Ray Samuels SR-71A or sit it on my ALO dock...

    How do I downsample 96/24 apple lossless to put on my itouch using jriver20?

    I'm sure this has been asked and answered many times, but here goes:   I've started buying downloads from HDTracks as well as Acoustic Sounds in 96/24 FLAC.  I've converted them to 96/24 Apple Lossless.  My main player is JRiver 20 (for PCs).   Now, I'd like to save those files but also...

    Why does my SACD layer play but my CD layer (on a hybrid SACD) doesn't?

    I've tried this on four different players:  two from laptops (an old HP and an ASUS) as well as a separate ASUS CD drive, and an Onkyo 6-CD changer.  The great news is that the SACD itself plays perfectly on my Oppo DV-981HD (haven't tried it yet on the Oppo BDP-83 SE Nu Force Edition, fingers...

    Getting "Potentially malicious website 208.73.210.29" whenever I go to the Forum page

    This just started a few days ago.  It's from Malwarebytes and reads:   "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware successfully blocked access to a potnetially malicious webiste 208.73.210.29  Type: outgoing"     This only occurs on head.fi.org, so I don't think it's a computer bug per se.   Anyone...

    Is there anyone in the NY area that can install replacement earpads and headpad for the SR-007 mk1?

    I don't want to do it myself, but wonder if there's anyone that does this?  Woo maybe?

    Hooking up an Imod to my car via the Isimple IS77

    I'm about to get an IS77, so, please, my question is specific to this, and not to something else I could have bought or should buy - Normally, you would connect the ipod device via the LOD dock to the cable which runs to the IS77.    With an Imod, of course, you need to use a headphone amp (in...

    Any suggestions for a small-sized but good quality speaker/amp to hook up to my imod in my car?

    I have a 2004 Mazda, so I don't have the auxiliary jack, meaning either I have to get an adapter installed, which means drilling, etc., and probably I give up the amp when I sell my car, or I get a portable device I can carry around with me that is small but has good speaker sound.  I see...

    Is there anyone in NYC (or the area) with a tube tester that can test four (expensive) tubes I just bought on ebay?

    I'm in Astoria, Queens, and the guy who I bought the four tubes from (he or she's in Germany) did a rotten job packing them - I could hear them moving around in their white tube boxes even before I opened the outer box (which itself was fairly flimsy).  I think they're fine, but I want to...

    Anyone know who in NYC can cut foam pad for box for HP-2 headphones?

    I have the Grado wooden box, but the foam is for the GS/PS1000.  I bought a Pelican foam pad, but it is oversized.  I don't know how - and don't want to - cut it and shape it for my HP-2 headphones, but I have tried and tried, with no success, to find someone in NYC that specializes in...

    Exact size dimensions of the Grado HP-1000 (HP-2)

    Hi all,   Hope this is the right forum and not "tweaks" etc.   Having just purchased these, I'm looking to find a way to store them safely, particularly since this pair has full original lettering, etc.  I'm looking at the pelican cases (a fellow head-fi'er recommended the 1080), and...

    Wheeling and Dealing on Head-Fi?

    Hey folks, am I the only one that's noticing something odd in the "for sale" forums - it seems that there are a certain number of persons who have engaged in a large number of sales, and somehow, I just get the feeling they're not so much hobbyists as using the forum to conduct business on the...

    Puzzling Problem ...

    Not sure if I should post this here but thinking I can get more opinions if I do so here than elsewhere....   I'm in Nepal right now on business for the next month or so - I brought my Ray Samuels SR-71A with me, and two sets of headphones - the Klipsch S5i (for the gym) and the Klipsch...

    Any thoughts about the new Macbook Pros just released today?

    Okay, I edited the title :)     I'm really curious to know what possibilities the new MBP can offer us headphone and audio lovers over the existing MBP.   Among the many questions I have is how much use the new thunderbolt capability will have, but not only that.  Though it's early to tell...

    connecting jh-13 pro to headphone jack on my amp - should I use a mono or stereo adapter plug?

    Just noticed the typos in my original post...   What I should have said is:   I'm currently using the Halide Bridge from my computer to the DAC and the DAC is hooked up to my Cary Xciter amp.  I'm plugging in the JH-13 pro into the headphone jack in the amp - not the DAC (my bad).  ...

    After a year and half, I still think the GS-1000i is a great headphone.

    Try and try as I might, I just don't understand why this poor headphone has been so maligned.   Okay, it's different than the RS-1, we know that.  But it is just a lovely set of headphones.   Not sibiliant, not shrill, mids are just fine, bass is plenty controlled.     I'm no Grado fan-boy...

    Sony VAIO 16.4 Signature or F Series Notebook vs. Apple 15.4 inch Macbook Pro Notebook

    Hey gang, which is best (forget about price) for great audio (high-rez) as well as for viewing movies, etc.  I know the Macbook Pro doesn't have a blu-ray reader, so that's one minus.  I love the build on the Macbook Pro (unibody, etc.), and, if you get the souped up version, the processor (i7)...
