http://consequenceofsound.net/2010/08/31/uk-company-offers-to-press-dead-bodies-into-vinyl-records/   Sign me up!  I'd like to be pressed into a copy of 'The Wall'.   Sorry, I can't really think of any great puns right now.

Well... this thread is for the scary moments we have while listening to music.  The moments that make us go 'whoa, What was that?' and so on and so forth.   Me, I just had a scary moment.  I'm listening to Alice In Chains - Rooster, and I never knew there were backing vocals.  I must have...

Has anyone seen this commercial yet:   http://scaryideas.com/content/17582/   There's real gas in these tubes...

Who here uses eye-shades when they listen to music? I've been wanting to get a pair, and I think they'll really enhance my music listening experience. I always have a light on, either from my lamp or T.V./monitor, so it would really serve me well to have a pair of eye-shades. Picture of what...

EDIT: I think this should be moved to Dedicated Source Components... A couple of days ago Vista finally decided to be a jackass (after a few years of pretty much no issues at all) and refuse to boot. This is my only desktop computer, and it's where I have my many TB of movies and music. Years...

So I have a 24-bit/192kHz rip of Dark Side of The Moon (vinyl), and I'm having the hardest time trying to listen to it. After finding out that my X-Fi Prelude only outputs 96kHz via optical, I bought the X-Tension DIN which connects to the Prelude and is supposed to support up to 192kHz out via...

Earlier this week I purchased this bad boy: I'm hoping to get back into Street Fighter 4, among other stuff like MAME. Does anyone here have similar joysticks and/or custom ones? I never played on a Japanese stick, and haven't had a chance to play this one yet due to a hand injury...

So, how does everyone plan to do their taxes this year? Yourself, accountant, online? I think I'll be doing mine through TurboTax; this is the first time I'm on my own for taxes. Last year my parents had their accountant do mine. I don't have any difficult things; just my job, savings account...

Well... this just sucks. Right after I got home from work, I had this feeling that something bad would happen. Little did I know... I was leaving my apartment to go hang out with a few friends and I was carrying out my trash and a six pack. I start to turn to go to my car and guess what...

Apparently no one made a thread about my birthday, so here it is (Oct. 14) Happy Birthday TheAudioDude!

So I'm ready to buy this beast of a DAC for use with my Denon D7000s... and within the coming month, a Woo Audio WA22. So, before I pull the trigger, can anyone suggest anything better for the money? Everything I've read says that this DAC has a very warm, musical, almost vinyl-like sound to...

So I am still at the crossroads, deciding which amp to go with my Denon AH-D7000s. It's basically now a toss-up between the Headroom Ultra Desktop Amp OR the Woo Audio WA22. Here's my dilemma: do I go with the Headroom amp/DAC for ~1700 or do I splurge and get the WA22 for $1900? If I get...

The battle of the complete opposites! I'm not sure if anyone has been fortunate enough to try out both... but would anyone venture a guess into whether one would be better than the other for driving the Denon D7000s? I'm wondering how a tube amp would perform with movies. I don't think I've ever...

NOTE: Some of this was written the day I got the headphones and some was written a couple of days later. Well the D7000s arrived at my apartment today (I ordered them from J&R on Saturday for $550). My receiver's headphone output is broken so I had to use my Fisher stereo amp I got at an MIT...

Hello All- I've been researching for too much time the past couple of weeks but I have finally narrowed down my choices of what headphones to get! All I need is your help and my search is over...for now. Let's start with what type of music I listen to. My favorite type of music is 90's...
