I just moved to a new apartment in Round Rock and was stoked to see that AT&T offers their new fiber internet.  The guy came today to hook me up and we talked a bit.  I mentioned that advertised speeds were theoretical maximums and that I doubted I'd be getting 300Mb/s he said "Oh yeah..you...

Any of you been following the development of the Oculus Rift?   It looks like we may finally have the opportunity to experience a true, binocular vision, motion sensing, virtual reality headset sometime soon.    Over the years there have been some attempts to create devices like these, but the...

Hello HeadFiers.  This month marked my 5th year as a forum member as well as a headphone audio enthusiast.   I thought for my 1500th post I’d take a little time to reflect on the past 5 years.             Before I joined HeadFi (by several years, dating back to the late 90’s) I was aware of...

I've been up for around 20 hours so I'm not going to do my commentary on the meet just yet.  I have some serious snoozing to do first.   I just wanted to give a HUGE  THANKS to Chris (Maxvla) for working so hard to give us a great meet.  We didn't get the turnout we were hoping for but we had...

I just got Bioshock Infinite for $13.59 USD.     HURRY!!   there's about 9 hours left at the time of this posting.

I was just doing a bit-o-browsing on new PC hardware and I saw this....http://www.maximumpc.com/article/news/asus_announces_high_speed_gaming_router_souped-_motherboard_and_soundcard_ces_2012   ....Which led to a Google search that turned up...

I was watching this auction with mild interest but I didn't expect the final price to be this high. Pretty cool I think.   It's no secret I am a HUGE fan of the 580.  I have two minty pairs myself.   I also noticed the buyer was a new eBayer.  Wonder if he/she is a Head-Fier..

I did quite a few searches here and on the internet and couldn't really find anything on this so: Here's my situation. I have a new hp rig that I really like but I'd just like a little treble roll-off. I was thinking that a simple low pass filter built into the interconnect cables would be a...

Is it me or is Firefox looking more and more like IE?      

For a long time the high-end of headphone audio was the sole domain of the electrostatics.  Then dynamics that were capable of producing very good sounds that were profitable to make and sell for reasonable prices came along and turned headphone audio into a serious hobby for the masses.  ...

Finally Verizon and Sprint subscribers may be able to get an iPhone.   Read about it Here.     Discuss...   don't you hate it when you make a spelling error in a title >,<

I'm looking to into the possibility of doing some work in the Middle East for a Company who is getting money from the U.S. Army’s Logistics Civil Augmentation Program for contract work.   Basically you go there for a 1 year "tour", stay in company housing with meals and some medical care...

OK, so I get the new Kindle yesterday.   Man, what a slick little device.  The electronic ink really is like reading printed paper.  It's affordable, the perfect size, lasts a long time on a charge, and comes with a dictionary (two actually).   I was pretty jazzed about it, until I...

Wow. I did a search to find a thread (that I was sure would be here) for AoC players and see what folks were saying these days, but came up empty. So, patch 1.06 hit the test live servers today which contains the log awaited T3 content: Thoth-Amons Stronghold, a guild renown system and a new...

I called Headroom yesterday to order a second pair of JMoney pads for Denon headphones and was advised that they were on the companys web site. I placed my order from the web site and received shipping confirmation later in the day. Anyone with a D2K/D5K/D7k really should check these out...

Here they are.....feast your eyes. This is definitely for the "Warren Buffet" crowd. EDIT: Oooh!! I just noticed this: The seller has 0 feedback.....Priceless

I know this is a little knit-picky but Since Denon announced the AH-D7000 their marketing literature has listed leather as the material used on ear-pads and headband. Still to this day, if you look at retailers web-sites they'll lead you to believe that you are buying a product with leather...

Swear to Gawd.. Check it out for yourself.

Just wanted to share my recent experience with my first custom analog interconnect purchase. First of all let me give you a little background. I'm fairly thrifty about audio gear and I usually weigh purchases very carefully. (I debated a closed headphone purchase for 3 months, before ordering...

I'm curious to see who would be interested in getting together for a meet in the Austin area sometime in the next couple of months or so.

This eBay seller looks like he is selling a Beyerdynamic headband pad for Sennhieser headphones and claiming that you are buying a genuine leather headband. I suppose it's possible that he is selling a leather product but what is pictured is a stock vinyl Beyer part. I'd advise anyone to NOT...

I just got my new Neutrik plug today, which was the last thing I needed to complete my recable of my K701's. The cable was already connected to the drivers and secured. I had braided the wire and left it all ready for the 1/4" TRS plug. So when it got here I went to work. I was very...

Finally, after 47 starts Jeff got back into victory lane today AND he got it in his fist win at Texas Motor Speedway in 17 tries!! Monumental team effort. And also congrats to teammate Jimmy Johnson for the one-two finish for Hendrick. Way to go!! NASCAR: It's not just for rednecks...

I've been listening to my Denon DVD-2900 for a bit now and I'm astounded that I picked up a $1000 (in 2003) component for a piddly $153.09. I think this is the best eBay deal I've ever made. I'm putting this up for eBay DEAL OF THE YEAR. What are some of the eBay bargains you have...
