I am looking for a favor, my fellow Head-Fi college students. A somewhat big favor, and maybe a bit odd, but there is a pair of Koss KC-35 headphones and any 10 CD's from my collection (mostly jazz and classical, a little hip hop and random rock) as a thank you for anyone if they're willing to...

What I'd like to be able to do is walk around my house with my META42, headphones, and some small device, and listen to music off of my computer. How would I do this? One thought was to stream my MP3's over Shoutcast to a website, then use a PDA to access to website via 802.11b and listen...

This is what I got in an email from Single Power. This is the company that made Hirsch's amp, which you can read about here This is all posted with permission. Email sales@singlepower.com for pricing details and any more information. I believe these amps are currently being produced. There is an...

I'm listening to Techmaster and DJ Majic Mike - 2 Turntables, and the bass in this track is out of control. My head feels like it is going to expolde, and my gut just flips out. I'm listening on Sony V6 headphones, through my META42 (AD8620, 2001 x 2, 9v), out of my soundcard. It blows me away...

Subject says it all.

I've had to sell my system due to a cross-country move, but in about 6 months I'll be able to start my headphone system again. My headphones will be HD-600's with Cardas and Etymotic ER4s. Source will be Phillips 963a or similar CD player. Wide ranging musical tastes. I'm thinking the...

See the very few details here: http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/meast...jack/index.html Basically says a Turkish Airlines flight carrying 200 passengers was hijacked. The plane has now landed in Athens. Seems only one hijacker, a turkish individual. I have yet to see this on any of the TV...

My parents need a nice clock radio for their bedroom. Must have clock, alarm, and radio. I'm thinking of something like the items from Tivoli, both in terms of the look and the sound quality. Are there any items that might work?? Thanks.

The current issue of The Absolute Sound (www.theabsolutesound.com) has a lengthy review by Harry Pearson of a 100w tube mono amp from Antique Sound Labs, the Hurricane. The review is very favorable, and HP feels that the amps are cause for him to go back over some equipment he had previously...

At my house we have a pretty complicated home theater system, and sometimes my parents forget to use the macro to turn everything off. This leaves the TV on, but the reciever/TIVO/DVD is all turned off. And I always know when I come home that the TV is on. I can hear a very high pitched sound...

I have a large collection of music in mp3 format on my computer, and I often just throw it on random when I just was some backround music, and don't want to get too distracted by my refernece system (sometimes I just have to stop whatever I'm doing and listen to the music comming out of my...

What I'm wondering is how much money you've spent because of Head-Fi. This means that if this message board wasn't here, in all probablity you would not have spent the money. For me, the total is around $1,200. If it wasn't for Head-Fi, I'd probably be listening to my Beyer DT231 headphones...

So I need a car, and I figured I check and see if any Head-Fi'er in the Tri-State area was selling one. My budget is around $2500. Also, if you could reccomend some good used car web sites, that'd be great as well. I've been checking craigslist and autotrader, but that's it.

Does anyone else feel the recent anti-drug ads have been way over the top? The ad with the young girl pregnant because she smoked marijuana just blew my mind. I mean, honestly, I thought that was just a bit to far. The tag "The youngest grandparents on the block", in regards to the parents, had...

Does anyone have any information on this player? A buddy of mine has one sitting around, and I wanted to know if anyone else had ever seen one. It has a tuner and I believe it can be powered by AA batteries. Looks very similar to the D25. I'll try to post some pictures and my impressions of...

It seemed to be having some early morning problems? Anyone else experiance this?

I just saw this on Slashdot. Its an interesting read, but the author is a little.... kookie (he's a member of "the worlds first cyber-religion") Ear damage by MP3, DVD and digital television? The basic argument is that the technology in MP3 and other compression algorithms simulates a natural...

I never would have thought I would be the type of person to put a $100 power cable in my audio system. After talking on the phone with Ric from Virtual Dynamics (nice guy, but he was talking about "messages from the Lord" giving him ideas about his cables ??? ) I decided to take the plunge and...

I've seen a few posts in the For Sale/Trade Forum where people are linking to their own auctions on other sites. Do people think this is okay? I personally think if you have something to sell, sell it here. If you don't want to sell it here, that's fine, just don't don't use Head-Fi to promote...

I thought I'd start up a thread for DIY case links. I was thinking to put up both companies where people can purchased interesting items for DIY cases, and eBay or other sales where possible items are for sale. Maybe the mods could put a sticky on this?? Here's what I've got so far...

I'd love to get a Connecticut/Hartford area meet going. Lextek and I talked a little about it, and I wanted to see what kind of interest there was. I could host at my place, located in West Hartford. 10 minutes from Hartford, 2 minutes from exit 40 off I - 84. It's about 2 hours from Boston...

I just picked up a Sony D-EJ915 from eBay for $35. But it only came with the cd player, the rechargeable batteries, and the case for it. I was wondering if I could use a 5v regulated walwart to power it, even though its listed input voltage is 4.5. Also, any suggestions about building my own...

Okay, I've done my searching and haven't found any advice on my problem. What happens is I hear a "crackling/scrathcy" sound as I turn the volume pot. The sound is not there when the pot is not moving, and when I take out tubes the sound is not there. Could it be a bad center tube? Any other...

US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS US WINS Stomped those cheap-shot head-butting putas!! Yeah baby, that's what I'm talkin about. US soccer world domination! (aight, I'm just happy to be in the TOP 8 IN THE WORLD!!) But look how far we've...

At the Boston World of Headphone's stop (which was great), I realized that I didn't know how to pronounce a lot of headphone and audio related terms correctly. I'm talking mostly about product names. Can you guys give me some help? Clou Grado - Sounds like grade-oh? Impedence - I...
