I took this internet connection speed test and thought my QoS results were lower than they should be. I wasnt able to find anything via google indicating what a "normal" QoS percentage is, so I thought I would ask head-fi'ers to take the test and see what kind of results they get. I have...

http://electricsheep.org/ although it is a screen-saver, it is by far the best visualization program i have come across.

http://www.caraudio.com/ Is a good forum, although not nearly as mature as head-fi.

I live an hour away from the town that it took off/landed in. Salina had an additional 33,000 people, almost doubling the population (~40k), for a few days. From what I heard it was a much larger story in Britain, because a very large portion of the media that came was British.

While it is certainly cause to lose your patience, don’t lose it on the seller. It's almost always FedEx dragging their feet. I know from experience that FedEx is horrible about things like this. If you believe he is lieing to you, ask him for the claim number so you can check on things...

http://www.bugmenot.com/ A great extension that lets you get around web registration. The site claims to have 52,000 something sites that they have fake registration info for. It's very easy to use, just right click in the field of the login info and click but me not, and it fills in the...

I work at customer service for gateway, and I see this type of issue daily, it's not the sellers fault. The blame lies squarely on the shoulders of the carrier.

I love my a900's, but I wouldn’t get them if you were looking for just rock. I don’t have anything to compare them to, but they don’t seem to sound as good for rock as they do other genres. They don't sound bad with rock, but I dont consider there best sounding genre to be rock. Also, most...

Oh man, here I thought I would get away with just looking into a CMOY All I need is the CMOY, but the other amps, so tempting... I feel like a mosquito drifting towards a bug zapper. I know I shouldnt get one those amps but they look(and one can assume, sound) so much better than a CMOY...

There is no headphone-out on the player, so it looks like i'm in the market for a CMOY. I just had to be sure I wasnt missing something obvious, thanks for your help!

I have some a900's that I got(or getting rather, since they have not yet arrived) for christmas. The source I am using is a toshiba 4960. It just occured to me, I will have no way of controling the volume. The remote of the player has "tv volume" but no volume for the actual player. The only...

I really enjoyed the movie. It was written by a guy that graduated from the high school I went to. It's strikingly similar to a lot of the people you would see in the hallways. The mascot is even the same (Indians). Aside from that the similarities end there though. Not that that is anything...

I signed it

thanks psychogentoo! worked like a charm

lol that seems just a bit of overkill . it really sucks just HEARING trillian make noises, i cant read it, i just know someone is frantically IM'ing me. i never realized how much i need those icons until now...

My older brother used my computer and installed some windows "powertoys" on the computer. One of those included (which may be the culprit) tweak UI. I dont know what he did, but now ANY icon that would have showed up next to the clock, doesnt. I scoured through all of the options in tweak UI, in...

1984(orwell) is an out standing book, both in the political and fictional sense.

I would suggest using a program to image your hdd. Here is what I do, format my hdd, load only the OS and the imaging software. Make an image of the hdd. I then load all of the programs I typically use, and then make another image. If at any time something on my computer screws up, pop in the...

This will be the first quality set of headphones I will own. The source I will be using for them, for at least a few months, will be my computer. I may eventually decide to buy an amp, so some cans that sound good not amplified, and sound even better when amplified would be ideal. They will be...
