I'm going to be running ampless for a while, source will be a Nano 6g... I'm looking for an IEM that does not have a ton of isolation, I like to hear a bit of what goes on around me. I have pretty small ear canals, but my experience with IEM's is pretty limited at best.   Most of my music...

Just got a replacement Nano today, 6th generation, I tried both a Turbo dock (V12?  I can't remember) and an ALO bling bling dock to Govibe 5.  I'm getting no audio.  Do these new iPods only work with headphones connected, or do I need a different dock now?    Just one more thing I'm not...

I sent my first gen back to Apple after reading there email stating there is the chance of overheating and or catching fire.   Fast forward 7 weeks, Apple is finally sending me a replacement Nano, I checked the serial number on there site and the replacement is a 6th gen.   Can anyone that's...

I've searched and searched and can't exactly figure out what I'm doing wrong.  I'm trying to run a new PC with Windows 7 64bit, Foobar 1.1.8  EMU0404 PCI, Toslink out to external DAC.  I downloaded and installed WASPI in the componet folder of Foobar, selected WASPI Speakers EMU DSP. I get...

I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for, I want something deep, good lyrics, moody, heavy. I prefer something without or very little screaming and/or growling. In pretty consistent rotation lately: In Flames - Soundtrack To Your Escape, Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone, VNV Nation.. So something...

For the longest time I been running 2 sound cards, 1 EMU0404 (internal PCI) going Toslink out to a Numbercruncher DAC, then to a Headfive. In order to watch movies, skype (mic), games etc... I also installed an old internal Audigy (original not a 2). Well everything recently changed when...

Well this is my second pair of Senheiser HD485's, first one same issue sent back and got replaced under warranty a year ago. Now out of warranty.. The plastic tabs that hold the earpad eventually break off for no reason with age (along with the headband), well one of the tabs is trapped in...

I did a clean install a few months ago, I took the audigy card out during the install. When the EMU was installed an working, I inserted the Audigy card and it installed fine. They been getting allong fine, till yesterday, I can one to work and not the other and vice versa. They both don't...

I was poking around on Beyerdynamics website and found the replacement for the DT 231 cans, the DT 235, see here The styling still appears to be the same, love it or hate it, O and now they also come in an ugly white Edit: Link for DT 231 description About the only change I can see over...

For my main system I use a DVD player for both my audio and video needs. Right now I have a dying Onkyo DV SP-302, I never really been to satisfied with it. Audio is pretty good, but Video, during layer breaks it usually pauses and skips ahead a several seconds thus missing crucial scenes in...

I have an Onkyo DV SP-302 that I have only used a hand full of times. Lately when I try to use it I have to hit the open button about 20 times or better to get the try to come out. When you press the button you can hear the motor spin and that's it. I took the case off and the drive looks...

I did a search but I haven't seen mention of the new Foobar beta, it supposedly has a new UI hence why I haven't installed it yet, didn't want to break my Panels UI. Was just curious if anyone else has tried it and what there opinions are. It looks like there have been a lot of changes almost...

I get a lot of wax build up in my ears I used to use Q Tips to combat it but I want to quit using them . So tonight I bought some Debrox, I carefully followed the directions, and cleaned both ears about an hour ago. I lightly flushed each ear as the directions indicated. My right ear is great...

I've seen a few commercials for a new product called Murine Earigate, says it reverse sprays natural sea water to clean the ear and prevent wax build up. I get quit a bit of itchy wax build up in both ears, I try just using a wash cloth to clean my ears but I usually have to end up carefully...

see latest post for current update I know this may sound stupid, but I've been suffering with bronchitis and chest pain for 2 weeks. I'm not working right now, so I don't have health insurance, the walk in clinic I went to gave me antibiotics which didn't help much. So I was reading in a...

I been experiencing an highly annoying problem lately, my EMU0404 (PCI) just stops outputing sound. I have to go through the tedious task of uninstalling Patchmix, uninstalling the driver, reboot reinstall the driver reboot, install patchmix, reboot. I used to run 2 sound cards but was...

Well I had the bright idea of trying to install a ceiling fan today, When I looked at the box where I was going to hang the fan, I was surprised to find 2 hot wires (black and red). The box is controlled by a single pole switch, so I figured I would open that up to see how the electricians wired...

The local power company here Florida Power and Light offered to hook up a surge protector at the meter outside, advertising as the first line of defense against surges. The catch is they only warranty large appliances not electronics. The installation is free and it cost 8 something a month to...

I've noticed since the last Forum update that I'm having to scroll left and right to read and post new threads. I run Firefox 2.0.0.4 and have a native screen resolution of 1440X900. Anyone else experiencing this?

Well I've searched through 20 some pages of history and haven't seen a post like this. Basically I'm looking for some ideas on storing 100+ (and growing) CD collection, and wanted to see what others have come up with for storage solutions. Right now my desk holds about 30, and I have CD rack...

I been looking for an inexpensive sealed rice cooker, not the cheap mega mart glass lid ones. I ended up with this one I normally would never buy anything at hsn, but it looked decent. I've used it about 10 times now and my rice (basmatti and Jasmine both) have a slight plastic taste to it...

Well I did something very very stupid tonight trying to clean up my desk. I had unplugged the power and Tosslink to my Entech Number Cruncher, well feeling around I accidentally brushed the power across the tosslink port, I swear I saw a little smoke. I plugged everything in and everything is...

Well I purchased the Marshmallows a few days ago, after burning them in with pink noise I went to go for my walk today and I thought my eardrums where going to explode, with each foot strike I could hear it thud in my ear, and the cord is way to microphonic. It's a shame I really wanted to like...

I just purchased a Cosina 19-35 (same as the Vivitar series 1) Lens to use with my Elan II, first few shots I was getting a check battery error, then it started working, and then quit again, seems like it isn't focusing right. I then tried it on my EOS 650 and it won't fire at all, it just...

I sent my headphones back to Sennheiser over a month ago for repair, I have been waiting for backorder to be filled so they can send out a new pair. They filled there backorder and sent them out last week via UPS. I just checked the UPS tracking number and it says delivered at my front door...
