Problem with my old amp
I just got my dad's old Aurex Toshiba SB-A45 amp that he said was somewhat of a flagship amp at the time he bought it. I like the overall sound of it, high resolution and very musical, but with a somewhat floppy and uncontrolled bass. It looks great, and the fact that it has voltage led lights...- Matteman

Colbie Caillat
Anyone else here waiting impatiently for her second album? I think she hit some kind of a soft spot for me, which only happens once or twice a year (last time it was me rediscovering Black Sabbath). I have a thing, or actually more like an obsession when it comes to female vocals... -

I developed a mild to moderate tinnitus two weeks ago, and it doesn't seem to get better. I've been to the doctor a couple of times and there's nothing wrong with my...- Matteman

Was messing around connecting my SF5pros to my dad's old amplifier. Had them plugged in in the phone-out, WITH the sound level attenuator, and connected an audio cable (3,5 mm to RCA) from my computer to the amplifier at the same time.

GS-1000 or UE-10/11?
Hi! Just got home from my local audiophile store - was fortunate enough to try the Grado GS-1000's. Spent a long time listening to these babies, everything from rock to classical. After 45 mins they started to stare at me at the store so I decided to let them go. This was probably my...- Matteman

SF5 Pro's - advices
Hi! Just lost my audiophilic virginity when I got my pair of SF5 Pro's. After spending about three full listening days I can say that I just love them.
