    Took the pads off of my Beyer DT 531's, now can't get them back on.

    Any help out there? I have lost my manual, and I can't find an electronic version on the Beyer website.

    The Blackbird (SR-71) has landed.

    Hey kunwar, where abouts in Adelaide are you? I live in North Adelaide. If you are nearby, we should have a mini-meet. I can bring my new Dynaudio Audience 42's. Although I have no headphones to share anymore.

    Think I'm getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome...

    Just asked me mate - he says to percuss (tap with the pad of your middle finger) your carpal tunnel with your index finger. If you feel numbness or pins and needles in your thumb and index finger, that is a positive sign for CTS. Come on Goose, you should know this. I did this stuff in first...

    Think I'm getting Carpal Tunnel Syndrome...

    Do you feel any numbness on the palmar surface of your thumb or pointing finger? usc goose - CTS is median nerve compression in the carpal tunnel isn't it? Usually, they drain the carpal tunel anatomical compartment with a syringe to remove the effusion and hopefully relieve symptoms. I...

    Best Replacement Cable for K1000's?

    Impressions: aeberbach-made K1000 replacement cable...

    Adam was kind enough to send me this cable to use with my K1000's (completely free of charge), because I was curious about the different K1000 extension cables floating around Head-Fi, and whether or not they actually made any difference to the sound. He told me that if I like the way it...

    leaving the CD player ON

    Actually Mark, I just paused my NAD C542, and put my ear next to the transport, and I can hear the disc spinning. My dad has this nasty habit of pausing DVD's mid-movie, heading off to work, and then coming back 10 hours later to finish the movie. How long does it take for a transport to...

    Would I be able to achieve that "brushed finish" on the aluminium case of my nOrh SE9? It looks really cool.

    Emmeline HR-2, Gilmore V2 SE, and Corda Prehead suggestions

    You should ask Tuberoller, he has heard both the HR-2 and the Prehead in his own system. I'd go for the Prehead, I think that the fit and finish is quite amazing (from the pictures I have seen). I've owned Corda amplifiers before, and their voicing is very natural, and non-fatiguing.

    AKG k-1000

    I use the K1000's with the nOrh SE9, and although the combination is a little bright with some recordings, it has left me with little to desire. I'm happy (hence the username).

    My nOrh SE9 will not turn on anymore.

    Turns out my rectifier tube went dead, and caused the fuse to blow. All I need is a new fuse, and a new Sovtek 5AR4 rectifier, and I'll be alright.
