Is anyone using the SA5000 with the M3 amplifier? The recent Rockhopper M3 amp thread piqued my curiosity because I spent a few minutes with the combo at the Maryland meet and liked it immensely. I think this could be one of those cases of instant synergy... or I could be completely off...

Is this speaker system available anywhere right now? I am really interested in it...too bad I am about 6 years late to the scene Anything else that compares under $1000 ?

You dont have to...If you already have a decent AGP rig that was missing that special magic for gaming and graphics visual quality...this is the thread for you! I dont know if many of you recall my thread about building a PC from an old laptop that I had? P4 3.4Ghz Northwood with HT 1 GB...

I want to monitor network traffic on a LAN and use a Knoppix PC as a sort of passive IDS. Doesnt send out any logs, alerts...nothing. Everything is processed on the local terminal. Does anyone know what tools I might need and where I can find them? Nessus scans, IP Traffic monitoring and...

Fedex gets my vote when it comes to choosing between carriers like UPS, DHL etc. For some reason, they seem to go beyond the call of duty to help me out. Just this afternoon I had a package delivered to me. It was supposed to go to IronDreamer but Monarch Computers screw*d up (as usual...they...

I was just messing around with the settings in the WinDVD media player "Audio Booster" and now I have some AMAZING out of the head sound! This sounds like speakers! not "like" speakers...I dont think I would be able to tell the difference. Does anyone else use WinDVD Platinum with the Audio...

Very nice sound with a few funny quirks. The imaging is absolutely top class and possibly even better than most other "regular" headphones i've had the honour of listening to long-term. Bass isnt bad but the bottom end surely leaves a lot to be desired. I am going to wait a year and let my...

Assume you have $5000.00 to decimate. Between the options listed above, how would you choose to spend the money? Please select from the options -but- if there is anything else you would rather do - feel free to let us know. NOTE: I give to charity and I dont need to be lectured...

Over the past year or so I have noticed that music in my right ear started sounding "dull" compared to the left ear. This was pretty disturbing because I am VERY worried about premature hearing loss. I have always been careful but I guess listening to headphones for years together DOES...

Pretty creative huh? Ultra-Jobless is also appropriate I guess Full Size Pic: http://www.desolateflux.com/albums/a...xps2atwork.jpg

Any Jim Croce fans here? I just picked up the "Time in a bottle" collection and I am very impressed with the music...nice rhythm, melody and depth to the lyrics. What genre does this classify under? Country? Folk? I heard his music for the first time at a karaoke bar I dont usually like...

This is regarding the creation of a HeadFi server for gaming. I have created a poll - it is multiple choice and should give us a better idea about how to go about this process. We need to discuss with Jude before we make this official but since the idea came up in another thread, I have...

Well..i've done it...blown a paycheck on a new gaming system Full credit to IronDreamer for leading me down this path of destruction I enlisted his services to get this thing build because I think such things are best left to those who know what they are doing - and I dont have time to...

Ok I have a new gaming PC and I want to move HL2 off my old PC to the new one. Has anyone done this before? I dont remember what passwords etc. I used the last time I installed the game...heck..I dont even remember if there was a password of any kind Any advice / steps?

I am listening to some old recordings like ABBA, Carpenters, Simon and Garfunkel, Crosby Stills and Nash, Steve Harley etc. and I am, for the first time, realizing that I might actually benefit from having a crossfeed as a part of my system. The sound is fantastic but I am not able to "relax" to...

Well...I lucked out and got the last Premium unit that Best Buy had coming to them this week...phew! That said...initial impressions are less than "jaw dropping" This is one noisy *******R !! It quite easily drowns out my desktop, refridgerator and airconditioning...all put together...

I was at the U2 concert in Charlotte, NC last night. Drove 300 miles to get there and back and it was totally worth the blurry eyed awakening this morning. I am still partially deaf and blind but this concert has made me crave for more concerts like it. In one word: UNBELIEVABLE...

Bring out the "Tuner" in you I finally bought a car...a timless classic IMO...a stunning performer in it's day and still a force to be reckoned with once in the hands of a maniacal tuner The 1990 Acura Integra LS was an atypical Integra in the 4 door sedan format. The 4 doors however...

This is probably the best coffee I have ever tasted in my life!!! Cafe' Britt (www.cafebritt.com) 100% Costa Rica Arabica Coffee - Dark Roast I AM WIRED!!! My south american neighbor just happened to have this in her hand when I went over to borrow a few filters for my lame colombian...

Hi people, Need advice about a place to stay in NYC. Our's is a party of 4 and we are looking to spend sensibly. Our main goal is to visit NYC and see what it has to offer...as long as the accomodation is clean and safe - we will be satisfied. Any recommendations that will not break the...

Dont have time for a long winded post right now How about a HeadFi Blue-Book for all headphone and auxiliary gear? I am sure that HF is the leading headphone forum and it can only grow from here. Please discuss...

Hello everyone. My first post in a long time (I have 20 minutes RYOB). I sold the Hayabusa a few days after I had a fall because of wet+cold conditions. Now I am looking to buy a car (no more bikes for me until I go back to Texas). I am looking for an Audi A4 in the $5000 - $7000 price...

Phew... I've set my rig up over this weekend and I am listening to my dear headphones after nearly a month. Dont let that lead you to understand that these comments are "sudden" observations that have been made without due diligence. I have been using the Omega-II and HE-60 for several...

I am used to BHNF laptops... B - big H - heavy N - noisy F - fast I always imagined that I NEEDED the power and the gaming ability. To make my life miserable - they hand me a T-42 at work. This is my first IBM notebook and all I can say is - I am loving it!! I havent played a single...
