    Meta-42 and Nomad JB2

    I am very happy with my new JB2 and although it adequately drives my HD600's, when I really want to hear better fidelity I connect my Meta (single 9V, 8620 op amp) and it really opens up the 600's My question is given that the JB2 does not have a line out, I am using the headphone output to...

    Expensive buy in headphone gears that disappointed you?

    Quote: Originally posted by Rizumu Finally, someone who agrees with me. The PX200's design is great, they work perfectly for portable, and yet the sound is so blah. It's really too bad. That was a disappointment to be sure. When you say that they are blah and a disappointment...

    Is it true that all of the Creative lab zens break easily?

    I have had fantastic experience with a few Creative players including the Muvo, JB2 and Zen 2.0. They seem very durable and have been problem free for me with the exception of a very occassional freeze up which was solved by reseting the unit with a paperclip. Getting an extended warantee is an...

    Jogging with Nitrus/Belt

    What are your thoughts about the Nitrus being able to handle the motion while jogging? What would be a good way to carry the Nitrus while jogging if you dont have pockets. I am thinking of the small Sony neoprene belt. Are there any universal clips that might work?

    A Few Questions on the Nitrus

    I just gave a listen to the Nitrus I am giving as a present tomorrow. The fidelity is not bad but must adjust the EQ. As most would probably agree the Zen is far superior but thats a different animal. Is anyone using it while running? What do you think about using the Nitrus for gym...

    Quick Nitrus Question

    The issue for me is not opening the blister pack but can I simply charge the battery and check out the sound quality by listening to the preloaded music without needing to load the drivers or install CD.

    Nitrus Question

    Quote: Originally posted by ezra2323 Exactly what I use at the gym with my Nitrus. No complaints. What kind of volume level do you get out of this combo? Do you need to push volume to max in order to get a decent level of loudness? Any disortion or clipping?

    Nitrus Question

    Does the Nitrus come with any prerecorded music? Since its amp is not all that powerful, would the PX100's be a good choice of headphones?

    Zen Xtra Case

    Quote: Originally posted by blipblop I cut the cover, and modified it. It's simple to cut through with an Xacto knife, BUT while the middle layer is transparent in theory, there is too much glue and material to ever get off to use it as a window. So cut through fully, and then use a...
