Hello, I got this from this thread. Squeezebox Touch, £207.20 after discount, pre-order(able) now @ Logitech UK. - HotUKDeals Forum Basically, use the discount code RELAUNCH2009 to get 20% off Slimdevices products. Yes, this includes the new Squeezebox Touch and Transporter. This brings...

Living in the UK, the power cords all come with fuses (unlike American power cords?). Just to clear the air, I'm not asking about audiophile grade fuses or whatever. I have no background on electronics and what I may be asking could sound completely daft to you. I checked the fuse on my...

It's snowing today. The gym is closed, for one. Secondly, the much anticipated concert featuring Pinchas Zukerman has been cancelled. Southbank Centre > All Events > Royal Philharmonic Orchestra I'm disappointed. I hate the snow.

Hello, Long story here but I'll try to keep it short. I placed an order for a Balanced CKK III a long time ago (12 months exactly, if I'm not mistaken Dec 07) and it hasn't reached me. Well there were a lot of problems with the construction and the builder. He was busy, the board fried...

Hello, Everyone's away for X'mas holidays. If their eggs are about to expire before the holidays end, do I have the right to steal and eat them?

Hello, This has possibly been discussed plenty. I would like to reinforce the discussion with this new thread, hopefully. Does the HD650 really improve that much with amplification. I've heard the HD650 from a Woo6, Millet Hybrid, PPAv2. I'm unimpressed because of the lower end, I feel...

Hello, It's like paying for insurance, $50 a year to have all your lossless files in a secure location. Sounds good to me, but I can't afford it. I'd like to see people with terabytes of data abusing their unlimited storage claims. Would any of you be interested in using this?

Hello, I just came back from the orchestra today. I went for Beethoven's Triple Concerto / Brahms Academic Overture / Elgar's Enigma Variations. As you can tell, what a night it was. I realised that once they started playing, the sound of real music sounded full bodied, mellow and muddled...

Hello there. The AKG K1000 is just sometimes too serious for me. You know, you can't really move your head vigorously to anything. Can't really wave you arms around in case you hit your elephant ears Then there's the comfort issue that I have, where the temple pads dig into my temples. So...

Hello, I've been wanting to listen to the HD650 out of my b22 to see how that compares to my HD600 balanced. Check my profile for equipment, drop me a PM if you'd like to do me this small favour. Thanks. -WS

It's too uncomfortable. But damn I love how they sound. I want to listen to them all the time, but I feel like they are pressing too hard against my temporals. I get a headache after too long. Any way to resolve this comfort issue? Any hardcore modders here wanna take this on? Cheers.

Head-Fiers I find it quite troublesome to sit down, put on my headphones, lean back and actually enjoy the music. This is because I find that I should listen to my jazz albums entirely, as I feel that it is how they should played. As such, I prefer my music on shuffle. It gives me a...

Previously I posted the opposite : http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f46/ac...ht=AccurateRip So I'm back in Malaysia, I find a few of my albums that I didn't rip so accurately back then. I've decided to rerip some of them, however they seem to be scratched, just a bit. EAC Test/Copy CRC shows...

I was amazed at this performance, and Head-Fi should be too So I'm sharing this. RedLasso - Lang Lang/Herbie Hancock 2008 Grammys

Hello Head-Fi, I've been ripping my CDs with EAC + AutoFLAC to have all my music files as FLAC. AutoFLAC automatically configures EAC to Test & Copy each track (you can do this by pressing Shift + F6 in EAC, just find it under "Actions"). This led to very long ripping times which I...

Title says it all. Accurate rip tells me that the entire rip was accurate. EAC tells me that all the tracks had errors. However, CRC checks (copy and read) were the same, and proved to be correct. What gives?

Hello there, I've done a few transfers on head-fi and I've given a few friends my account number and sort code to allow money to be transferred or banked into my account. Question is, are there any dangers in giving out my sort code, account number and name? Thank you.

Hello, I was just looking the other day at my harddisk and I can feel it coming down on me anytime soon. So I browsed around, and a RAID 1 configuration would be a good idea to set up a fail-safe storage medium for all my music files. Having a laptop, I find that a USB RAID enclosure...

I know it's still early, but I already have my tickets. 4 of them actually, for Victoria Park, London 24th June. 2 tickets too many, but it shouldn't be difficult to find people to join in for the concert. I'm surprised they haven't sold out. What an amazing band to still have tickets...

Hello there, This is quite a newbie-ish question but I would like to know/learn about it anyway. I have a cheap line filter Tacima - Pattrick Brothers Communications Ltd with a maximum current rating of 13A. Other companies offer high current line filters at 16A. Now I've read that...

Okay, I usually play this with my coursemates during a boring lecture. What we do is we write 3 words down on a piece of paper, pass it on and everyone has to contribute 3 words. So I'll start with 3 words, the next poster has to add 3 words to make up a sensible sentence or story. Feel free...

Hello Head-Fi. I'm looking for kin0kin. I understand him to be a trustworthy Head-Fi member. I have tried to contact him via email and PM on other forums, but to no avail because he has been MIA. The reason for my concern, and by all means this doesn't mean that I'm being unreasonable...

I've got my SB3 working fine and sometimes it annoys me that I have some albums show as a duplicate, or songs duplicated within an album. For example, I browse under albums and I find two albums with the title AAAA If I browse under artist for BBBB, I go into album CCCC and find my songs...

Hello, Since my internet connection is only possible wireless, I would like to ad-hoc my computer to my Squeezebox through an ethernet cable. I would suppose that there are benefits using Cat6 over a Cat5e cable for this purpose. Does it have to be specific that I'm buying a crossover...

Hi there, Would there be any disadvantages ripping XRCD to FLAC? Cheers.
