I started a post a few days ago, but since then I've both rethought what I'm looking for as well as had an increase in budget I'm really looking for something for primarily portable use, and I typically listen to hard rock or metal the budgets a pretty firm $200, but if something just past...

seeing as my px100's we're just taken out by my PINT which blew an opamp, I'm looking for something new here's the catch, i'd like something semi-isolating, I've got a few road trips with the in laws in the coming months, and I'd like something that won't leak much sound out to them. I'm open...

5 Teens Arrested for Railroad Vandalism in Chili - 13WHAM.com to add to the story, both engines are apparently badly damaged, one possibly totaled I really hope CSX goes after the 5 of them for the monetary damages, as well as the town which had 2 or 3 major roads blocked for 11 hours...

Between work and DIY projects, I need to get my hands on a solid digital multimeter, and i've narrowed it down to a few, but i could use some input on the final choice I'd like to stick around $200, but if something really shows its worth, I might be persuaded to spend more, I'd like to have...

so the lab down the hall from me is still being cleaned out, already i've snagged an old tektronics 2213a O scope, and an old multimeter, but i got maybe the best yet today, a box full of probably 200 used tubes, i'm sure some are no good, but a lot of them look fine, i've got to go through the...

well, i got some sad news tonight, my parents called to tell me their cat was killed this afternoon, they got her as a stray when i was living at home, and she's been an outdoors cat her whole life, enough to have hunted and survived for a year before we took her in she apparently left my mom...

so my schools electronics lab was about to throw out a bunch of stuff, and i have the opportunity to grab an oscope for free (already snagged an old fluke benchtop multimeter) probably a shot in the dark, but does anyone know if i should grab the 2213, or the 2213a, theres a handful of both...

i can't recall the last dvd i bought that had a dts track, nor a 6.1/7.1 one anyone else notice this? or know anything about it my guess would be something to do with HD and blu ray, but...

http://glumbert.com/media/tonguetwister not much needs to be said, just watch it

as the title states, i'm looking to upgrade my setup a bit, and best i can tell, my soundcard is the weakpoint, heres my setup now x-fi -> minified pint -> HF-1's i'm really very satisfied with the sound, and i don't find any area particularly lacking, i'd really just like to get a...

well, i've got the upgrade bug again, maybe i just want to give myself a pat on the back to getting to the point of writing my doctoral thesis, maybe i'm just yearning for better sound, but whichever, i'm torn between upgrading my amp, or the source, but i'm not sure which route to go, current...

as the title states, i'm flying out monday morning at 6:45 am cross country, with layovers, its gonna be 8 hours total time, my 512 meg shuffle needs to go, but at the same time i'm a grad student, so i can't just go wasting cash, as upcoming amp builds are gonna take up my spare cash keep in...

as the title states, i've got a 2m high quality s-video cable that I no longer need, but i do need 2 1m cables, anybody know where i could pick up the connectors to chop my cable in half and reterminate it, or is this a bad idea

so, after finishing my pint, i've got the bug, i love how it sounds, and i also loved how smoothly it all went together, guessing 2.5 hours total build time with casing, worked like a champ, no oscillations, very low offsets, question is whats next i love the detailed nature of the pint, but...

just about to start building my first amp, and i'm clear on everything else, but i forgot to order the part to fill U2, and i've noticed other people omit this part, and tangent has no mentioning of the part in has part selection guild, but from the schematic it looks like it possibly has to do...

for a while now i've been planning on building a pimeta, and now that my wallets recovered from a computer upgrade, its time, few quick questions first i plan on this being a pretty maxed out amp, elna caps, hand matched resistors, double stacked buffers, etc. and will have a low gain, as for...

well, as the title suggests, i'm looking into building my first amp, and i have a little experience in troubleshooting electronics, so i'm torn between these three millet hybrid budget m^3 maxxed pimeta they'll be paired with HF-1's or sr-225's and a creative x-fi as a source as well as...

just what the title says, after recabling my senn eh2270's and hearing the difference, i'm ready to get away from my nvidia soundforge onboard sound, which is around the level of the original audigy series reason for the price range is that i'm awaiting a maxi moy signature from shellbrook...

so i've had some amplifier hum for some time now, audible from the tweeters on my mains and center channel, not really noticable on my rears, i've tried the easy stuff, disconnecting the cable etc. the other day i took home a demo rotel 900 series line conditioner ($200) to see if it could...

looking for a portable amp for my ipod/senn eh2270(closed back 64 ohm input impedence) setup not looking to break the bank, but anything under 100-150 is game, i'll use it at my computer most of the time, so an ac power input would be preffered in addition i'm looking to replace the stock...

i'm looking to improve the sound of my senn. eh2270's, the amp is a must, as their 64 ohm and i haven't found a portable source that can really power them, just looking for suggestions for cable/amp setup that i can get for under 100 bucks hopefully, but i'm willing to spend more if its worth...
