when im burning the plant to the green gods i like to chill out to- cinematic orchestra, jaga jazzist, skalpel and Mr.Scruff. Now your turn.

now my ears are spoiled by them! last summer when I bought a pair of hd600, I just could not go back to listening to my mission m35i loudspeakers again- the quality difference was too much so that the speakers were put away in shame and later sold for price that didn't matter. And those were...

currently i'm looking for the most bang for the buck speakers to fill my small apartment. I go on ebay and see so many great deals at so many different price range, I decided I'll spend up to $1000 as long as it's the best deal price/performance wise. It's $1000 i can't really afford but I don't...

Description of Leftfield/IDM...(copy/pasted) Leftfield encompasses the range of music that doesn't fit neatly into any one genre within electronica; some styles are as out-there as the term implies. Often heard in open-minded chill-out rooms, basements of hip London pubs or in the bedrooms of...

I'm about to buy Bada 12 or G & W 2.6 in china (my dad is down there) And I figure getting a power transformer is no big deal next to saving hundreds of dollars for the amps. But I wonder, is it safe? how do power transformers work? will they be as reliable and as pure as feeding actually 220v...

hey guys, my dad, whos in china at the moment, could not find a shop where he could buy little dot iii so he's going to order one on their chinese website. Since he was going to go that route anyways, I thought I might as well ask him to order something else. Something better, perhaps. So I was...

sorry guys, i realize that this might not be the best forum to ask this question but of all the electronic forums you guys are always the most responsive and friendliest. So the question is, as the title says, is it reasonable to use component cables for analog connection? reasonable as in still...

k, i spent an hour and a half surfing google tryinh to find a good quality 1/4" headphone jack to stereo RCA and nothing! i couldn't find anything that wasn't crappy like rubber shielded and noodle thin. I'm talking about these kind of cable guys I want something nice of that so that i can hook...

I just got my xm3. it's nicely built, and tiny...i don't know what it is but somehow it looks smaller than an altoid can although they're exact same size. must be the shape and the black outline... anyways, even though i realize it's suppost to be not in the same league as the PINT but what i...

hi, i just received my hd600 that i bought from ebay for $212. seeing how cheap it was New, i didn't bother to ask any questions. but now i'm thinking may i should have. cuz when i took out the earpads to inspect the drivers i saw that there was a rather noticeble nail mark on one of the clear...

ok, i got some customization ideas that i would like to try out. and what i would like to know is if any of these will affect the sound of my HD600s in a negetive way. first of all, i have a temperpedic bed that i'm about to throw away (puppy dug multiple crates on it- feels like sleeping on...
