Do I need to include a battery with my Zen Micro when I send it in to be repaired/replaced for the headphone jack problem?

Every time I try to rip with EAC and LAME I get an error message return from LAME. I dont know too much about LAME and its settings but so far this is how EAC is set up for LAME. I cant find anything wrong and yet I always get this error message. Can anybody find something wrong...

Decided? Too bad, your getting the bad news first. My headphone jack broke over the weekend. I temporarily remedied the situation by stuffing a peice of paper between the headphone jack and the body of the Micro. It kinda works, but if i mess with the jack the sound cuts out and the music...

So I thought I might pick up a CD by Bob Dylan this month and I was looking around I realized how many damn albums this guy wrote!! I really have no idea where to begin. Any recommendations of his best work? PS: Some of my favorite songs of his are Hurricane, It's Alright Ma, Buckets of...

Toshiba has developed a new battery that can be charged 80% in 1 minute, thats right not 1 hour, 1 minute. Its still a prototype battery but it is already being planed for testing in a few lines of mobile phones and other devices. This battery also fatigues less than the current Lithium-Ion...

First off 1. The Karma is Kaput . Looks like there was a reason why the Karma was selling at such a rediculously low price. For many of you this is a good news bad news thing, on one hand the legendary Bang-buck Karma is gone, but on the other hand its gone... and being replaced by the Chroma...

Im looking into actually buying a couple CD's for a change instead of just jacking it off limewire. I was wondering if there are any Tool, Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Nine inch Nails, or The Doors Albums that show off the use of gapless playback. I heard that Tool, NiN, and Pink Floyd all have albums...

Pretty simple thread guys. do the EX-51's have an uneven cord like the 71's do? If so is there any way to fix it so the cables match up (other than tape )? And are the uneven cords even that big of a deal comfort wise? Thanks in advance

So my friend wants to get an ipod, problem is he doesnt even have a 2 gigs of music, is always active, a clutz, and a fool when it comes to anything electronic. Should he get the mini or is there something better suited? The ipod would be good for him cause he's not an audiophile so he wont have...

I just got my 280 pro's today( ) and the second i played a song i was amazed at the bass response, all this time i had heard claims and compliments on how "deep" the bass is. And to a great extent i really had no idea what that meant. Now i do. Im sure you guys have had moments like this where...

I am about to buy some Senn HD280 pro's and i was wondering how well the micro can drive them. They are 64 ohms with an SPL of 102dB. So if anyone has a headphone with aproximately those specs and a micro can you tell me how well they are driven in a quiet room (simulating the noise blocking of...

Has anyone recently bought a pair of HD555's from newegg and can you tell me if they are now the 50ohm version and not the 120ohm version? This is really the only thing that is keeping me from buying these things. But first im going to go and Audition them tommorow, hopefully they have them at...

So im contemplating making the jump from my px100's to the grado sr-60's. Is it worth it? Other than portability and weight what am i losing/gaining by going up to the sr60's. i would say about 80% of my music is encoded at 128 mp3 (sorry, thats what i get for pirating my music) with the...

I was wondering if there was a CD burning program that will alow me to burn CD's by ID3 tags and not by file name. if you dont know what im talking about WMP10 burns by ID3 and Nero burns by file name. the prolem with these two is that my file names are horribly organized and WMP10 only burns in...

The title says it all, i have a few unresolved questions about the karma 1. Have the failing HD issues been sorted out yet by Rio? 2. What is the difference/is there a difference between a Parametric EQ and just a regular EQ? 3. Are there any adaptors that allow the karma to use the line...

Well the title says it. im looking for the ER6i's but i want to buy them in-store but i dont know of any place that carries them. PS. i need to have them in-store for return and demo purposes.

THIS IS A MULTISELECTION POLL There seems to be this "massive" problem with the zen micro with the headphone jack breaking. Creative also had this problem with the Zen xtra, so to see if this is an epidemic or just a small problem vote either you have a broken jack or not. also please post a...

So im auditioning a pair of e3c's from my friend and so far i like them except for a few things. number 1 is that he only had the medium sized tips (they're the rubbery black kind) on him because he forgot the small ones. so when i cram the e3c's in my ears they stay...for a while then after a...
