    Any amp DIY'ers in Orange County, CA?

    I apologize if this is the wrong forum to ask for assistance. I have no experience in DIY or electronics so I am looking for someone local to me that has some expertise with amplifiers. Specifically, I'm looking for someone who can install input attenuation on one of the inputs of my...

    How can you tell if you have a vintage Grado?

    I recently purchased a used pair of SR-60's that came in a box like this (this is not my pair): It came with bowl pads and the original owner said that's how they came. I think the earliest version shipped with flat pads. I figure I don't have the earliest production SR-60, but it must...

    How do you find out someone's phone number using their address?

    Don't worry, I'm not planning to stalk someone or make creepy phone calls. I got ripped off on an M^3 with STEPS on the sale forums recently (details here) and I wanted to try directly contacting the seller since he is ignoring my PM's and e-mails. I'm not going to take this lying down...

    UFC 66: Liddell vs. Ortiz 2

    UFC 66 is tomorrow and it's projected to be the biggest selling pay-per-view in UFC history. Is anyone here going to watch it? Predictions? I've got Liddell over Ortiz via TKO (ref stoppage due to strikes) in the 2nd round similar to their first fight. They're both riding 5 fight win streaks...

    Pro.Dac on DIYKITS

    http://www.diykits.com.hk/Pro-dac.html I'm looking for a simple USB-SPDIF converter so this caught my attention. This appears to be a combination of a converter plus a small DAC. I like that you can run it off battery power. Now the question is if you can use ASIO (dll version) on this or not.

    Audiophile USB vs. HagUSB

    I know a lot of people here use the M-Audio Audiophile USB as a transport to their DACs, but I was wondering if the HagUSB might be even better as a transport. I'm trying to find the best solution for a bit-perfect ASIO compatible USB to coaxial digital output from my computer. I also like that...

    AKG K340 Questions

    My pair of K340's says "ELECTROSTATIC-DYNAMIC SYSTEMS" on the cups, but I noticed other pairs have "ELECTROSTAT-DYNAMIC SYSTEMS" on them instead. Does this indicate any difference (age, type (bassy/non-bassy), production run, etc.)? (I'm sorry if this has been answered many times. I tried a...

    UFC 62: Liddell vs. Sobral

    Any predictions/thoughts about the card this weekend? I guess I'll go with Liddell over Babalu again. Although it wouldn't shock me to see it go the other way. Babalu is going to give Chuck a lot of trouble. But I see a TKO stoppage due to strikes in the 2nd round in favor of Liddell. I...

    The Ultimate Fighter Season 3

    This one wasn't as good as previous seasons, but I'm still looking forward to the Finale on Saturday. I've got Mike Bisping over Josh Haynes in the light heavyweight match. It's too bad Matt Hamill was not cleared to fight Mike in the semis. That would've been a much better fight than the one...

    This guy does. This is hilarious! Who would go through the trouble of counterfeiting something so absurd? What was he planning on doing with these? I want to see a picture. Hopefully one will show up on the net. Edit: There's a picture at the yahoo link now.

    Weird problem with my Rockbox iRiver H120

    I use Rockbox so that I can load FLAC encoded files onto my iRiver H120, but sometimes after it plays the first track perfectly fine, it will not proceed to the next FLAC and instead say "Codec Failure". But if I manually select the FLAC file then it will play fine. It just won't advance to the...
