    What do you think about while listening to music?

    It depends on how many times I've heard the song before... If it's the first time, it can be any of those options, but if it's past that, then I'm most often thinking about the music itself: how the instruments sound, how they're mixing together, beat, tempo, etc.

    LOL - I just realized how much of this I had in my dorm room! (CH3CH2OH)

    With all this talk of being drunk and revealing your "true-r" personality, it's interesting to note that people's attitudes are just as effected by the perception that they are drinking alcohol as when they are drinking something that they were just told was alcohol...

    Anybody checked out Bodies The Exhibition

    I went to see this exhibition last summer in NYC and thought it was fantastic. The two best parts of it, I thought, were that they separated each system of of the body into their own sections of the exhibition and that at the end you could hold a brain, a femur bone, and a few other body parts.

    Is HD-DVD Dead?

    When this war began, I was pretty sure that HD-DVD would be the winner. This is because I figured that since most people know what a DVD is and what HD is, then it would win solely on brand recognition. But, now that it has turned out this way, I'm pretty sure the only reason it has lost, is...

    Audiosurf

    It would be cool if the track you were riding on was a waveform of the song... But, looks cool, my roommate was actually playing this earlier!

    which train station to use to get into NYC?

    The closet thing to get you to Grand Central from where you are in Central Valley is to cross the Hudson and get on the Metro North in someplace like Peekskill. This may help: MTA Metro-North Railroad

    How do you comparison test?

    If you're doing a blind test, how do you get around the fact that you can tell which headphone is which by how it feels on your head? Just something I have always wondered...

    Well, my desktop has an nVidia nForce2 Soundstorm in it and my laptop has the stock Intel soundcard. Quote: Originally Posted by PFKMan23 To the OP, I'd say it depends on what you plan to do with it. Well... put it between my source and my cans. Not sure what you mean.

    Unsure whether to get a portable or desktop amp...

    I just recently bought a D2000 and researched for an amp that would produce a good synergy between the two and I came up with a few results. But, before I can pick, I was hoping to get some advice on which type of amp to get, portable or desktop. My sources are either computers (desktop w/...

    Someone at work was telling me how great Bose was.

    I have a pair of the original Bose MediaMate speakers and I think that they are... alright. I prefer my D2000s, but, I don't mind listening to them. I just think that they are a bit too bassy.

    Let's say you hit the jackpot of the lottery....

    Well, if I had to choose between the #1 audiophile setup and the home theater (and nothing else, such as investing, lawyers, etc), I would take the home theater. With it, one could listen to music on it or watch movies!
