    5.1 Headphone repair

    Quote: Originally Posted by MrKazador First thing I would do is check the wires with a multimeter. If there is a broken signal in the wire it will need to be replaced. If the wires work out fine then the speaker is damaged somehow. No need; the speaker can be powered with that...

    5.1 Headphone repair

    Alright, I'm sitting here working on an old pair of Medusa 5.1 gaming headphones (they're used for gaming, dammit -- I know their sound quality isn't great, but the positioning allows me to pick the angle of a hunter from across the map) which has lost the front right speaker. Here's my problem...

    Darkest Desires Part V

    Quote: Originally Posted by roadtonowhere08 I really do not have a definitive opinion of this album. There is great energy and music in it, but I get WAY too much of a System of a Down vibe from the vocals and pacing sometimes. Still digging the new Mastodon... I really...

    Seeking (relatively) cheap IEMs

    OK, let me get this straight. Suggestions so far, with prices, are: ER6i -- $70 RE-2 (Whose? What is this?) with FiiO e5 amp -- $50 (I guess phones are $35?) Shure E4c/SLC4W -- $150, not a likely purchase NuForce NE-8 -- $70 NuForce NE-7M -- $50 AL UHP336 -- $35 Vsonic RO2 Pro II -- $70...

    Seeking (relatively) cheap IEMs

    Alright, here's the situation. Some 3 years ago, I bought a pair of iM716 phones for a song. They were around $60 and sounded excellent for the price. However, 3 years, 8 countries, and untold abuses later, they've thoroughly had it. The original tips have been destroyed and the foam tips are...

    Pan's Labyrinth

    Haha, I haven't forgotten about this thread, but I don't sleep much as is right now. Next weekend I'll hopefully have some time... Also, you might consider the ending cheesy, but it was the contrasting resolution which perhaps embodied the political element of movie. It was also necessary to...

    Fun and Free Game

    On a level with a lot of running room, such as level 7 or so, where you have to ram the barrel to get on top of it, you can roll backwards and flip yourself over, but you won't lose. You just have to slide yourself over to the barrel to restart the level. :P

    Pan's Labyrinth

    Quote: Originally Posted by philodox I liked it, but I agree that I think the fantasy side of the movie should have been explored in more depth than it was. The real world side of it was pretty simple and could have been shortened a fair bit I think. I also thought the ending was weak...
