    Shure Custom Tips

    Just before I left Chicago last Monday I went to Sensaphonics (660 N. Milwaukee) to get some -25db filters for my custom ear plugs. While there I decided What and got new impressions, then ordered custom tips for my E500s. Now I must wait 4-6 weeks. According to my chart there, last time...

    I'm building cables for my Apogee Duet. So far I'm using RadioShack connectors but would like to source some, if possible, better quality connectors--gold plated pins, whatever. My Google Search was an exercise in frustration. Any ideas?

    Eat More Records, R.I.P.

    Today I decided to make one of my infrequent pilgrimages to Eat More Records. My last one was almost a year ago. I drove for about 50-minutes from Alpharetta to Lawrenceville to discover an empty store: it isn't there anymore. Those familiar with Atlanta-area driving will understand why I...

    Pollen... eww

    The pollen in the Atlanta area is driving me bonkers! Never like this in Chicago. And, because of the water restrictions, I cannot wash the stuff off my car at my leasure; have to use a car wash. Not that it would do any good; an hour later it would have a new dusting. On my ride today...

    Tinning wire before soldering connection

    Why is this recommended? Isn't it better to have bare metal wire against bare metal? Isn't standard tin/lead solder a poor conductor? I haven't earned an opinion in this area, so I'd appreciate some schooling.

    Re-ripping to Apple Lossless

    Although most of my rips are 320mp3, now that I have the room on my ip160, I'm re-ripping selected CD's (to start) to lossless. Little-by-little, getting it done! Eventually, I have a gazillion vinyl records to rip (if that's the term).
