I'm convinced my ipod hates me! I have an album stored on my iPod ( apple lossless naturally ), with an album cover embedded in. Now, there is alternate artwork available for each track on the album, which are embedded into the track as well Now my question is if there is any way to...

So, I havn't been active for the past year or so.....I've popped up here and there, but i've kinda "abandoned", for lack of a better term, this wonderful community. Why? Easy (well maybe not). I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety last Jan, though the symptoms have been there...

So, I'm loving my SA6's. But there is a problem with the jack plug. Everytime something touches or otherwise brushes against it, the sound cuts out or otherwise gets "static-y" What should I do?

So I was thinking about getting the Stax SR-001 "ear-speakers" from audiocubes...But I just have a few questions... First, do they fit like IEM's or more like earbuds? How long do batteries last in the amp? does any place other than audiocubes sell them? If I have anymore questions...

SO i was checking my mail via gmail, when i saw an ad placed on top of my inbox... "Audiophile iPod 3g headphones" (sic) Interested, I clicked, and I was shocked. Upon looking at this store earbid range, some of the designs they had were a tad too...familier. I saw E2c's, EX85's...

I stupidly encoded most of my tracks into Apple Lossless for my iPod. Now, I wanna put music on my n95, which unfortunately, doesn't support this codec So i have to convert my stuff....Nokia's music manager plays the files back, but won't convert them correctly. I would like to convert...

So I've had my beloved k501's for a while now, and I love every moment listening to them. But now there is a problem. The sound cuts out on the right and "pinching" the cable just above the plug or moving the plastic casing around the jackplug seems to fix the problem, but only for a little...

I looking to grill up some fish tonite for dinner, along with the usual burgers and hot dogs. Anyone have a good grilling recipe/marinade for fish? I've been poking around online, and found a few, but nothing terribly exciting. My guests are pretty much open to anything...I even managed to...

So, my car's stereo died. NO CD's, no radio...nothing. It was an Infinity system for a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The system was apparently the "premium" version, and thus has a separate amp (which i didn't initially know about). This is important for later. I go and buy new stereo. It's a...

The right channel in my iGrados went dead. I didn't think it was anything major, so i popped open the driver unit and to my horror look at what i found: the wire (the one used for power if i'm not mistaken) has been severed!! i am now a sad darkangel as surgery for this is outta my...

i've heard it on 2-3 songs (so far) on my ipod...the music just starts to clip and skip like if it was a scratched CD. At first i thought it was a bad transfer, so i played said music back on the PC, and no clipping there. Gonna re-transfer in a bit, but can anyone tell me why this is...

I know valentines is just shy of 2 weeks away but i like to prepare.... Me and my gf are going to see WICKED on broadway (the gershwin theater) in NYC that nite at 8pm. We wanted to go out to dinner, and i was told to surprise her. I don't know any good restaurants in and around the area...

I wanna re-cable my iGrados...the cable leading into the driver housing is being pulled out, and i don't wanna risk anymore damage to the cable. Also, I kinda really wanna "personalize" the iGrados, make them more unique to me. I've been researching various things and i think I've come up...
