    The ultimate dilemma, e4 vs. e5

    So I am now the proud owner of the Shure e4 and Shure e5. Now I have to pick one as my wallet is in pretty poor shape. I wasn't going to buy the e5, it never seemed reasonable to spend so much money on headphones. But I wanted something that I could use in the library that sounded good. So I...

    Is there a way to tell the 5g ipod not to charge?

    I'd like to run my ipod off of a powersource without worrying about the battery being filled to capacity, is this possible? Basically I just want to be able to tell the ipod not to charge when it's plugged into a powersource.

    Ipod powerdown options?

    I just got my Ipod working in my car but one of the things I realized that could be a problem is accidentally leaving the ipod running after I'm done driving. Is there a way I can setup my ipod so that it automatically shuts down if it's left on for a half an hour, an hour, etc. ?

    Just got the Echo Indigo DJ, now I have a few questions

    First off this thing is great. It totally fixed the annoying hissing and clipping I would sometimes from my laptop's soundmax internal audio. Of course now I have all these new options that I don't know how to use. First off I guess I don't know much about 44.1khz vs. 96khz. My soundcard says...

    Which headphones do you guys use to run and why?

    I'm looking for headphones to use while I run. I'd preferably like something that could handle a little rain since my player is reasonably water resistant. I'd love to use my Shure E4's but I'm not sure how the sweat will effect them. It sounds like most people recommend Koss models. What I'm...

    My TBAAM is sucking

    Just got the Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro for my IBM T43. I got it for my birthday but I figured it would be better than my laptop's onboard sound which has a slight hiss in the background. Well the TBAAM hisses like crazy, and not only that, when I plug it in the range of control I have...

    Any new portables on the horizon?

    I was really excited about getting the X5l but now I'm kind of disappointed. Are there any better players coming out this year that I should wait for? My intention is to have my mp3 player act mainly as a line out for my car use it as a portable for trips and as a means of transfering...

    Quick question about the Zcover

    I want to get the zcover for my x5 and I'm definitely interested in black. How much of a problem is getting lint on it? Is there a good way to wash it off? Also I am interested in using the voice recording features of the x5 player, does the cover completely block the recorder from working?

    Breakout box for the 1616m as an amp?

    Does the breakout box for the 1616m act as an amp? If so that might make the 1616m a pretty good option for someone who wants a card for both mobile and desktop and is also in the market for an amp. Actually: Headphone Amplifier (2 Stereo: MicroDock M and Card) * Type: linear power...

    Which low end amp for me?

    I'm looking at the Headroom little and the Firesone iCute Beyond. Each are about in the same price range. This would be my first amp for use with the emu 0404. Right now I own Shure E4s and I plan to pick up a bt880 when I have some more cash in the summer. Now, my girlfriend is from Taiwan but...

    Buying cables for my car Ipod, are these anygood?

    So I have to get some cables for my car. I don't have much to spend ~60 for RCA interconnects from my PIE to a panel I'm setting up near my lighter with female-female RCA bulkheads. From there I will run an RCA to 1/8" to the ipod. Anyways, I've been shopping around for cables while...

    Whoops, bought the 0404 without realizing I need an amp

    So I bough the emu 0404 because my old soundcard's hissing was driving me crazy. Well I didn't realize I would need an amp to power the emu series. I just don't have enough money for a decent amp right now. What does this thing sound like unamped?

    A good way to get RCA on a plastic bezel

    I'm going to be putting two RCA female-female on a plastic bezel that goes in the console in my car. Obviously I'll need to drill holes, but I'm having trouble finding gromets to the plastic bezel. I was just thinking of getting two of these: http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=family...

    0404 vs. 1212M

    So I just got some Shure E4c's and I was listening on my home computer and I noticed that there is an awful background hiss. Apparently the SB Audigy that I bought 3 years ago kind of sucks. Had I known about this forum back then I probably would have realized that. Anyways, I don't do a lot in...

    I need to mount RCA cables in my car

    I would like to put RCA cables through the console in my car to reach the radio, the person here: http://entropy.muc.muohio.edu/~brown...tall%20003.jpg Did it without mounting anything. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good product that would be easy to mount? Rca cables built into mountable...

    Echo Indigo questions

    I'm thinking about purchasing the Echo Indigo (Not sure which model yet) and I have a few questions. First it seems like the Echo indigo works in combination with the laptop's sound, that is, it seems like unlike a computer where you have to plug everything into the new soundard and disable...

    Looking to purchase a earbuds for my Thinkpad T43

    I decided that I'd like to get some better sound and given that I will be using my laptop pretty frequently I need a combination of portability and noise isolation. Because of this I'm pretty interested in earbuds. I'm willing to spend as much as $200 and the E4c's are really standing out to me...
