Any old timers out there know what happened to Ray Samuels Audio? The website is no longer up. Did he close up shop or am I just missing something? Mods, please move if posted in the wrong forum. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

I was wondering if there are any Firewater fans out there. This is a great band that I never hear about. There isnn't even much info on the internet. AFAIK, Tod A is in the Middle East right now, so the new album is in limbo. I have been a Firewater fan since the first album in 1996, and find...

My wife and I are having our first baby this year and naturally I am interested in getting the little one hooked on music while still in the womb. I heard people play music by placing headphones on mom's belly? Does anyone know of a good resource for music that a fetus would enjoy? (Never...

I am currently running a 1.6 ghz Pentium 4 with 256mb of ram. I have decided it is time to upgrade. If anyone is willing to help me pick out a new computer I would be forever grateful. Here are my requirements: - PC (I always buy from Dell, I already have an account there, and I am not...

Just a heads up to Wilco fans out there. The forthcoming album is streaming on the bands website today. This is the second time the band has put the album up. It won't be on the site tomorrow, so hurry up and open another browser!

I was in Chicago this weekend, so I thought I would stop by Music Direct to check out their store. Knowing this is an internet music distributor, I wasn't expecting too much. Music Direct is located in a primarily industrial area, between Comisky Park and downtown. I drove by the store a few...

Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to put videos on the new ipod? I know Apple wants me to purchase videos from them, but there must be a way to put my own clips on the ipod. I have no idea what file type is needed (my clips are all .avi), or even how to sync the...

Hello everyone, I just picked up this portable am/fm radio and the reception seems to be pretty good, but I am getting terrible background noise with all bands (am/fm/tv). The noise is very audible even when the volume in tuned all the way down. Does anyone else have one of these? If so...

Hello Everyone, I was wondering if you could help me by suggesting a good AM/Fm tuner (walkman) for my office. I currently run my iPod directly into an old set of Boston Acoustic computer speakers - not exactly hi-fi. I would like to listen to the radio during the day - especially AM...

Does anyone here know if it is possible to connect a Playstation 2 to a laptop, and use the laptop screen as a monitor? Is there such thing as an external tv tuner card? Obviously, I can't install an internal card in my laptop. Thanks much.

Music Direct has been advertizing this product like mad. I am surprised no one has posted about this product - maybe I just missed the post. I am not even sure if this is the correct forum to ask these questions, but here I go. Has anyone used this buffer stage? How does it sound? I would be...

Has anyone upgraded their power cord for the Phillips 963sa? I have looked around but can't seem to find a cord that will fit without modding the IEC. If you did upgrade, did the tweak improve sound? Thanks in advance.

I currently have a Phillips 963sa as my main source and have been bitten by the upgrade bug. Has anyone heard a SACD mods Phillips and a Phillips running through an Ack!DAC? I am not sure whether to mod or go with the DAC. I am a little hesistant to spend money to mod the player since it...

Hello Everyone, I picked up the vinyl version of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot the other day and found the highs to be very shrill and harsh compared to the cd version. Has anyone else noticed this? It may just be that my turntable is subpar compared to my cdp, but many other records both new...
