Hi All. Somewhere while researching the Surfans F20, I saw a post or review stating you can press something to scroll through letters of the alphabet to get to a folder/artist or similar. Since buying it, I've been unable to find that page mentioned.... does anyone know how to do this? TIA.

As the title states, when I press and hold the power button, then tap on shutdown, the DAP powers off, but the instantly restarts, as if I've hit restart. I'm on the latest firmware. Anyone else seen this issue? I've searched but came up with nothing. TIA

Hi All, Long, longtime user who just hadn't logged in for several years, since I was happy with my setup for a long time. My Yuin PK3 finally broke so I'm looking for new buds. They will mostly be used at my workplace (office job), where it is mostly quiet. I use earbuds instead of IEMs because...

Hey guys and gals, as the title says... I'm still rocking the old E4C, but the stem on one of them doesn't seem to work any more. I've already cleaned it out, there's absolutely no gunk in there, it's simply not working for some reason. Swapping it to the other driver proves my theory that it's...

I realise it doesn't have the highest output in milliwatts (20mW into 16ohms, 11.6mW into 32), but how is the quality of the H140 compared to other current players, which seem to have extraordinarily high output in comparison)?

For those with a player with a solid state in it (especially those who have modified ones like the H1XX/H3XX series), do you find the drive slowed down over time due to the way SSDs write and delete data? (ie. They don't support TRIM). If so, what did you do about it? Here is the background...

Hi all,   I haven't logged in for a while. I noticed that when I do a search now, it shows the results in a format that looks generated by Google. It doesn't show the count of how many times each thread has been viewed.. the forum used to show this. I've tried using the advanced search and I'm...

I know there's a "Folding@Home" thread, but it's not exactly what I'm thinking about There's a lot more impressive work out there than mine, but I thought this would be good for a laugh. Post up your folds (or paper art) Giger alien

Hi guys. This might be a long shot because its about recording, rather than playback, but hopefully a muso out ther will know the answer. I have an 0404 PCI, and I'm trying to record for my guitar pedal (Boss GT6). I've looked on some recording forums and noone knows. In Cubase, I've set it...

Hey guys, COMPLETELY not audio related, but I figured this was a quick and easy way to get a bunch of results/info. Anyway, I have a problem with my Nokia 6120 Classic. It annoys me enough that I want to fix it or change phones. Nokia haven't been able to fix it so far. I LIKE Nokia in...

Long story short: Please do not buy from, or use the 'services' of an audio component modification company called Tube Research Labs. Tube Research Labs They are scammers and liars, will not answers messages for 6 weeks+ on end, and don't even know what they're doing WRT audio component...

I searched for "human cow egg" and couldn't find an existing thread: This super race may could over the world! British scientists make human-cow embryos I know they're not really breeding minotaurs, but it got you're attention hehe

I searched already but didn't find a clear answer: Can someone confirm yay or nay if the master volume slider in PatchMix should have any impact if I have the following: Latest EMu 0404 drivers, latest PatchMix. A friend has told me that their volume slider has no effect (or is locked)...

I think it's probably poor form to blatantly name names, and they do make some useful/worthwhile posts, but recently I've noticed several posts by at least one forum user here which are just complete and utter nonsense - basically off topic non-sequeters which I suppose some ppl might pass off...

I know it's on here somewhere, but I couldn't for the life of me think of the right search terms: More and more recently, the plugs on my E4C's come off whenever I pull them out, even if I pull my ear back and up. I see the E500/SE530 and possibly some of the other recent Shure IEMs have a...

Having trouble spending a CD voucher. This is very short notice but I'm going to the mall in the next hour. Someone look at my Last FM profile (in sig) and make some random recommendations... go go go!

Forgetting my E4C today and having to use my cheap Sony buds at work made me think of this: I wonder how good an idea of "neutral" representation of we have. I boosted the bass from my iRiver a little (+3dB@60Hz, +1.5dB@120hz) and found the Sonys much better from then on: I wonder what...

After showing my GF Imogen Heap's "Speak For Yourself" I realized I never paid much attention to the lyrics - Other than one or two of the singles, the content is quite dark/sad/depressive (especially the last song!) and if you take them out of the context of the happy/upbeat/syrupy music which...

Just thought this would be amusing considering some of the other "Fi"s out there. My equivalent of hiding something down the back of the couch and seeing what it grows into 1 year from now :P I fully expect no posts here. In fact, I hope no serious ones are made hahah

OK so I just started a new job and made myself at home. Didn't have a PC login the first week, so I spent every day reading printed documentation about the system. But.. after maybe 5 minutes reading, without fail, I could barely keep my eyes open. Now I KNOW reading all day is boring and...

Check out this soundtrack! I just got it - very nice. Think a blend of "From Hell" creepiness mixed with "Amelie" innocence/playfulness. Nice sound quality too. And it's written by the director of the movie Tom Twyker, which is pretty good if he's this talented. I love the movie too.

What do you guys think? I love it! Seems like the perfect blend of everything from their previous albums, and I can't get enough of it. Curiously, I know one or two who absolutely abhore it! I guess overall, it is less trancey than say BP Empire or Converting Vegetarians (Trance Side anyway)...

Really just a confirmation: I was playing around with some alternative for PowerDVD for watching DVDs and noticed that out of all my players, only the PowerDVD audio volume control hooks up directly to the system output level (which we all hate because it screws with Foobars' and Winamps' levels...

An electrician friend of mine whose been doing it for 30 odd years said that the products sold as power conditioners do the same job as a UPS does. He said if I want to experiment with it's effects on audio I'd be best off buying a UPS and seeing if that has any effect. His reasoning was: A...

Just pulled the trigger on this. http://www.audionotekits.com/dac2_1.html Wallet is crying no more lol. I grew to love the NOS sound from the Storm and have decided to take a much more 'buy right, buy once' attack in future purchases, rather than repeatedly buy something a little bit...
