Well, my portapros finally bit the dust, so I'm in search of a new pair or portable 'phones. I have to admit I haven't been spending as much time at Head-fi as I used to, so I'm not up to date on the more recently released stuff. I liked the sound of the portapros but not the looks Plus, I'd...

My old dvd player is finally dying on me and it's time for a replacement. I know the 963sa has gotten great reviews, but I just took a look over at audioreview and there were a few people who had problems with these units going bad after a week or so and getting poor support from Philips. Is...

46??? You didn't look a day over 44 at the Philly stop on the WOH tour! In all seriousness, thanks for your support of head-fi and the headphone community. Hope you have a good bday!

Well, the old '89 Mustang is finally just about dead, and I need reliable transportation to get to and from work. I started off looking at used cars, but I don't really have money for a down payment and I can lease the sentra for 3 years for about $300 a month (4.9% interest rate, 0 down). Or I...

I have to type all day at work and I'm starting to get pain in my hands. Howver, I tried to do a bit of research on CTS and it seems that it occurs in the area of the thumb and index/middle fingers whereas my trouble is in the pinky fingers, actually the knickles of those fingers to be precise...

Well, I'm about out of outlets on my Panamax Max 1000+ power conditioner, and I need an INEXPENSIVE surge supressor for the rest of my stuff. It looks like the HTS2000 can be had online for under $110 (plus the requisite $16.00 for ground shipping ). Anyway, that brings the total to about $125...

The folks at G-town let us keep our school email addy's after we graduate but they have to be forwarded to another address. So, in the next few days I need to pick one. Should I just grab a yahoo or hotmail address or is there something else I should consider?

No, I didn't fail out...I'm graduating! Hooray! Took my last final this past Monday, and handed in my last paper Thursday. Any other head-fiers graduating this year?

The morons damaged my Axiom VP150 center channel. There's a dent on one corner of the enclosure and 3 of the four places the grill connects to the speakers are broken, with little bits of plastic from the connectors floating around amidst the delicate tweeters! So, anyone know how long this...

I went a bit overboard a few months ago with Telarc's "The Big Picture" cd and blew out a mid on one of my Kef Coda 9s. Not great speakers by any stretch, but still it sucked. I bought these speakers from Bryn Mawr stereo (now Tweeter) a few years ago, and of course they no longer carry Kef...

2 channel and I recently exchanged PMs and we're wondering if there would be any interest in a Philly meet. I know JML was interested in possibly getting together w/ me after I got home from school; anyone else? Possible locations? (my housing situation is up in the air at the moment)

Anyone know where I can find them? Sony doesn't seem to sell them anymore, unless I'm missing something.

I just won one of these on ebay, but the seller doesn't have the power cord. Can anyone tell me what the specs of the stock ac adapter are?

Hope so, because I just grabbed some on ebay. I've become inspired by hearing Hirsch's tube rolled ZOTL and seeing his mammoth collection. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1345557971 Comments? (If I paid too much, feel free to tell me, I can take it.)

OK, I graduate in a month and the car I've been driving is kind of a POS. Basically, I'm worried about the reliability. I guess I could get a couple grand for it. So, the question is, should I get a used car, or finance a new one? In addition to the $2k or so I'd get from selling the old car...

After reading eric343's post in this thread, it occured to me that I don't know how/why a lot of us got our custom titles, or what they mean. Most I know, but some are a mystery. So, what's the story behind yours?

The stock cord for this player doesn't seem to work very well. It never seems like it's pushed in securely, and when I move the unit it often shuts off. Thus, I'm looking for a replacement cord. $50 max. I've heard good things about the Absolute power cord, but can I do just as well with a...

A while ago they made me download the "Preview Edition," and it really sucks a lot. Constant pop-up ads and no place to specify searching for audio/video/etc. What's the deal?

"Became Capt. Napalm to combat apartment robberies!" Man, they must be giving them out to anyone these days j/k. Thanks Jude! That apartment robbery thread was one of my earlier ones. I've become a big fan of State Farm.

I've decided that I need a bike. I'd prefer a mountain bike, but a good portion of the riding will probably be on-road. I really know nothing about bikes, so if anyone has any recommendations I'd love to hear them. Is there anything good in the $5-$600 range? I'm about 6" tall and 165 lbs., if...

O.K., someone just called my apartment. The phone rings four times, and the answering machine picks up. I wait to hear if there's a message, and get....a few seconds of nothing and the sound of a phone hanging up! What? WHY DO PEOPLE DO THAT??? You have the WHOLE RECORDING to hang up if you don't...

I've been wondering about this for a while now. Why is it that if most cables are made of copper, as is the inernal wiring of most audio components, that gold plating is preferred on the connections? Isn't silver the most conductive metal? If so, why pay extra for gold? I call ********.

Wondering if any other home theater fans on Head-fi are also looking forward to its release. Looks like the wait may finally be over (though, especially in this case, you never know ) : http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...threadid=56590

A few days ago internet explorer started freezing on me whenever I would check my email. It would only freeze the one window, others would be unaffected. The task manager says that it's running, so I'm not getting a "not responding" message. The problem seems to occur whenever I click a link...

By that I mean which amp (in your opinion) does a good job of driving the greatest variety of headphones?
