I want to get a small, compact pair of headphones for an ipod that I can just throw in my pocket and not worry about. I had Ety 4P's in the past, and while they sound great, they are too fragile (and expensive!) to just put in my pocket. I was hoping for something that sounds better than...

Three or four times now I've had a CD get stuck in my Philips DVD963SA with the grungebuster mat still attached. I have to take off the lid of the player (which takes a while) to get the CD out. The CDs have always slid just a few inches back in the tray - the player reads "no disk." The mat is...

So when I ordered a couple Type 1 power cables from Wayne of Bolder Cables last week I noticed this bizarre item on his site. It’s a CD mat – a sticky piece of rubber that you put on your CD that is supposed to improve the sound. I was extremely skeptical, but after reading more, and seeing as...

http://mr-31238.mr.valuehost.co.uk/a...sh/psychic.swf Yes, I now realize how this works. But it was pretty amusing the first few times I tried it.

OK, so I've decided that I need an actual home setup in addition to my portable and transportable gear. I really like the sound of my Ety's, but they don't work very well at home because I have to take them on and off too much. I think that I can come up with about $1000, or maybe a little more...

I like my D-25S for stationary use, but it skips in a car/train/plane/etc. I'd like a player that has some skip protection, but still has a really good line out, preferably even better than the D-25. I've heard that the D-EJ1000 line out is equal to the D-25. Is there anything better? D777...

The title says it all. Has anyone compared them? Thanks, bdb55

I was just looking around, and it seems that the only thing on the Head-Fi calendar is birthdays... Well, by clicking "private event" down at the bottom, users can add an event to the calendar (I tested it out by adding something in the past; it worked). Anyway, I thought that it would be cool...

http://webservices.cnet.com/Bandwidth/ I was just curious... I've run this test a few times at school and a few times at home. I get well over 2000 kbps at home and only about 500 at school. What's strange is that I have cable at home and my school has a T1 line. I use the same computer, BTW...

I've had my .25 meter Bolder mini -> RCA for a couple weeks now, and I wanted to write a quick report. I don't have any other mini -> RCAs to compare it with, but I can say that my new system (Sony D-25S, the Bolder, META42, Ety's) sounds GREAT. The cable is built very well, with a very sturdy...

I just scanned my D-25 manual and uploaded the pictures to imagestation. The images are out of order, and some had to be cut in half - but everything's there. You'll figure it out. http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4291020193 I know that a lot of people have the D-25S from Silicon...

I have a Sony D-25 portable CD player that I recently bought off eBay and am trying to find a power solution. The original AC adapter was included, so my only problem is portable power. I have heard that the Radio Shack Power Bank #273-1900 (http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...Fid=273%2D1900)...

OK, I need to buy some kind of music player as a Christmas gift that would work for exercise. Here's my requirements: Must cost less than $150, preferably closer to $100 Can be mp3/minidisc/whatever, but it needs to be small and not skip FM radio would be nice, but not necessary Must work...

I was looking around Audio-Technica's website and found a picture of five different pairs of wooden headphones. I recognize the W100 and the W2002, but the W1000 isn't in the picture. Does AT really make (or have they made) six different pairs of wooden headphones? Any info?

I need a mini to RCA cable to connect my SlimX and META42. All of the above cables have been recommended in these forums, though no one seems to have tried all of them. "I have it and like it" isn't that helpful when there is no basis for comparison. I would really appreciate a comparison of two...

In talking to JMT about a META42, I asked if he could put an adaptor to turn my Ety 4Ps into 4Ss into a META42 (I only need the adaptor when plugged into the amp, and it would save me from buying the physical adaptor cable). Presumably, the adaptor is just a 73ohm resistor. JMT said that it was...

I recently realized that I still have cheap plastic interconnects between my home CD changer and amp. I also realized that listening to my Ety 4P's through the amp would be a lot more enjoyable if I didn't have to stand within three feet of the amp. So, I want to know the best all-around value...

I purchased the September issue of "Laptop" magazine last week (it was the first time I'd ever seen this publication) and though I'd share an article I read in it. Anyway, the cover story was "Hot Digital Gadgets for Work and Play." I was surprised to see the Etymotic ER-4P was one of their...
