    Possible to purchase Lossless albums from iTunes?

    Is it possible to purchase Lossless albums for iTunes?  Also, I see an option to convert my current iTunes library to Lossless.  Does this really create a Lossless version?  If so, how?

    Where do you store headphones, amp & DAC for your office setup?

    I work in an office with an open floor plan.  I have a big desk with sufficient room for an amp and DAC.  I also have a lockable filing cabinet, but using it for nightly storage of an amp/DAC will be a small pain.  I was thinking about getting some sort of shelving unit that I could just keep...

    Best Amp & DAC for Denon AH-D5000

    I've seen a few threads on amps for Denon AH-D5000's, but wanted to get recommendations for my specific needs.  I'm a recovering audiophile who had to downgrade from a $30K+ system during a move to a tiny furnished room in San Francisco.  I'm doing most of my music listening while at the office...

    High bitrate music service similar to Pandora or Spotify?

    I love Rdio. It's like a mix of the best things about Pandora, iTunes and Facebook rolled into one.  You can add pretty much any album to your collection and synch it to your mobile device for $10 per month. I rarely run across an album that I want that they don't have. I haven't bought an album...

    How much disc space is required on average for a CD using Apple Lossless compression?

      I have approximately 600 CD's that I want to store in Lossless (assuming Lossless will give me the best sounding audio). Wondering how large my hard drive will need to be. Also, are there hardware features I should be aware of when buying a hard drive for music storage and playback? Any...

    Best office set up for under $800

    Also, of the headphones mentioned above, I'm leaning toward the Ultrasone's as Amazon has them for $397 new right now and the reviews seem stellar.  They appear a bit small though.  Do they fit comfortably over the ears?  Do you still recommend the Zero DAC and Filio E9 with these above other...

    Best office set up for under $800

    Thanks Negakinu.  I noticed that most of these are described as bassmonsters.  While I dig a tight, punchy bass, I don't tend to like overly bass-y sound.  Any other headphones you think would fit this or is the bassmonster moniker here more punchy than overpowering?

    Best office set up for under $800

    I'm a recovering audiophile who was forced to sell his dream system during a move to San Francisco. My current living situation requires that I listen to most of my music at work.  I'm currently listening  with some Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's, but they are falling apart after a few flights.  I find...
