    How do you store your headphones?

    I was just going to reach for my digital cam and take a picture of my storage hooks, but lo and behold I actually have two of those banana hooks exactly like Sovkiller's old one. Senn 580's and AKG K240s's have their own banana hook, and then the shure E2c's sit in their zip case.

    The Mars Volta - De-loused in the Comatorium = GREAT

    (hope this won't get too o.t.) but especially after your tool comment, in the less underground side you should check out King Crimson ... especially the 1970's album "Red", and the brand spanking new album "The Power To Believe" (probably this one first). amazing amazing stuff. the new...

    The Mars Volta - De-loused in the Comatorium = GREAT

    i'm not sure exactly what happened between all the guys in atdi, too bad, they were an absolutely amazing amazing live act. i saw them twice, once after in/casino/out and once right after vaya came out. just local all ages shows, but just absolutely incredible live. seeing a good 300 kids at...

    Rap Sucks

    if that mr. music snob was in reference to me, i apologize, didn't mean it in a snobby way. just was saying that he considered disturbed better than "simple" rap ... and that it might not be a valid comparison.

    Where to start with Jazz?

    just to toss in a little more modern jazz, i really enjoy the latest dave holland quintet and big band cd's. he was actually the bass player for miles during the bitches brew era i believe, but his stuff isn't really in that fusion vein. the quintet cd "all for nothing" that came out a couple...

    Recommendations from classical music experts?

    i think that there's a karajan double disc with the Tchaikovsky 4th, 5th and 6th symphonies ... i'll see if i can find a reference to it again. i have a bad recording of the 5th and am still absolutely in love with it ... the horn solo on the second movement is so incredibly poignant, and that...

    Rap Sucks

    i would agree that mainstream rap is pretty much worthless ... but just to re-iterate what others have said, check out the underground scene. what little hip-hop i listen to is more from that scene. and if you don't think that it can be poetry, check out Sage Francis sometime. one of the best...

    anyone have an Extigy and an ART DI/O?

    actually ... kernal streaming and ASIO are dependent more upon the soundcard supporting them than the OS. Well, especially ASIO, kernal streaming is a bit of a different story (i think). I have the kxDrivers (www.kxproject.com) for my shoddy soundblaster live that came with the computer, and...

    Reservations about getting the E2C

    hey erikzen ... i just recently purchased the shure e2c's myself. i just wanted to chime in and definitely suggest that you try the foam tips ... everyone's ears are radically different but i found the medium foamie's to be ideal for me. and probably go back and try all the tip sizes, i was more...

    airport security and a mint amp

    thanks for all the info guys ... i was betting that as long as i could demonstrate what it was it wouldn't be too much of a problem, especially if it was in a bag with my pcdp and earbuds. and yeah, my wallet is already starting to feel lighter and i'm only beggining my headphone craze. good...
