  1. helping someone post.. the unit is only a few days old.. with receipt if interest pls SMS or call Simon @ 97823772
  2. gfgfmoses, I was stating my opinion. I did not give a definition, nor can there be evidence or hard statistics that measure the integrity of a nation. This will be my last post in this forum, until gfgfmoses apologises for calling me immature
  3. China people have a general problem with integrity, and will not hesitate to take advantage or cheat you if it were possible. Did anyone see the TV report about the scams from China? They will lie to you smoothly straight in the face, and guarantee you with their 'integrity', and that 'china people are good people with conscious'. When exposed, they will still talke back loudly and rudely, as if it is our fault. Even the rich chinese families, whose kids are sent overseas to japan for studies (personal experience). They have no respect for others property. When it's raining, they will just take other peoples umbrellas, and even steal bicycles to use once and just discard after use. Obnoxious. Sorry about the rant, of course not all China people are like this, but I am convinced a worry percentage of their population are so. I'm still pissed I was brought up to say '我是中国人‘. What a derogatory term.
  4. Or if you're lazy like me, just buy a volex power cord http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/viewtopic.php?t=15325 Can order from farnell
  5. lol, congrats on the grado purchase.. I remember many many years ago, when I got my first sr60 from adelphi.. man they sound so much better than my earphones, but I got weird looks on the bus as I was going home...
  6. Got a reply from Earphonesolutions, If you will like the coupon code just PM me. As for the group buy, I don't think i'll participate in it. I'll probably just order it from Earphonesolutions direct, and get them to send it to my vPOSTUSA mail forwarding address (u can get one free at http://www.vpost.com.sg too) It takes a bit longer to get here, but will be much cheaper (maybe around S$10)
  7. BeachAudio is offering the E4Cs at US$182 minus shipping However they don't ship outside of the USA, so try instead to email EarphoneSolutions the link above and they should be able to provide a coupon code to match the price. Any takers so far?
  8. Hi, i was just going to post the price should be around US$199, u guys are fast I'll be interested in the E4 as well, keep me informed ok?
  9. You can get the replacement pads direct from Sennheiser at 438A Alexandra Road, #08-10, Alexandra TechnoPark, Singapore 119967 Office Hours: 9am - 6pm Tel: (65) 6273 5202 Replacement pads for my HD595 costs nearly $30 from them, but may be cheaper than getting them from a retail shop. No harm calling the service centre to check first.
  10. Found this interesting DIY tube amp manufacturer from china http://www.little-tube.com/chinese/product.htm He calls his tube amps 'Little Dot' or 小不点 in chinese, lol. They are cheap. A bigger tube headphone/speaker amp in the works http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showpost.ph...12&postcount=31
  11. Here's an interesting link I came across talking about the ER-4S/P and Shure E2C http://www.linkwitzlab.com/reference_earphones.htm
  12. I thought the point of the xin is to be lightweight?
  13. Anyone thinking of buying the EL2009 buffers? http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/showthread....&threadid=57088 I'm tempted to upgrade my EL2001 buffers.. but I think gotta hack a little since the pin configuration is different
  14. I SMSed him yesterday and he replied immediately that it was sold. <-- Looking for a small DAC
  15. I hated my extigy. I shorted Creative shares after I bought it >.< You can consider M-Audio's Sonica range. http://www.sinamex.com/Store/M-Audio.htm They are located in Peace center
  16. jarthel.. you have excel saga dvds? Are they available in Singapore.. if so.. where can I get them? THanks!
  17. I'm following Naruto.. it's pretty good... Are you guys downloading fansubs/bittorrents or buying the DVDs? I'm burning downloads of better series to DVD, anyone wants to trade? Cheers
  18. Hey, I support the "stealing" of music via peer-to-peer file sharing or otherwise. Because I really want to see the collapse of the music industry in its current form. Seriously. I'm not trying to be sarcastic. Market forces and technological advances change business rules all the time. If the industry refuses to evolve, and instead chooses to hang on their old business model AT THE COST OF THEIR LEGAL CUSTOMERS, then they do deserve to collapse. I won't be surprised if recording labels are actually making more overall profits due to piracy of their music. The increase in market penetration, reach and exposure of their artistes by an order of magnitude gives them access to a much wider market audienceand much more business opportunities. If not for all the piracy, did u think it would havebeen so easy for JPOP/KPOP to get into our market? Or for Taiwanese/HK artistes to get into China and cut all those lucridious deals for sponsorships, ads to be spokepeople for products? I'm looking forward to the day where people can download music and mtvs for free off the recording label's websites.
  19. Finally got to listen to the Gilmore Lite.... took me a while to get the step-down transformer and power plug adaptor >_< Initial impressions... OMG it's good! Definitely a class above the META-42. Immediately apparent is that the bass is more extended (compared to my PDAC) and everything sounds more effortless. However the bass seems more muddled.. could be the new belden cables i'm using, but I'm hoping it'll go away after breaking in the system.. Test Equipment: (See sig below.. but insert gilmore lite between DAC and Headphones) Music: Various high quality mp3s using foobar/kernal streaming
  20. Has anyone here hooked up a PC to your big screen television before? I want to set-up a high quality PC-HDTV rig very soon.. Currently I'm thinking of getting the Sony HS34M61 Super Fine Pitch with the KeyDigital Transcoder and probably use a Nvidia based graphics card. I will appreciate any advice, especially regarding your experience with HDTVs, or better still, if you have used a transcoder between your PC VGA-out and TV component-in before. Thanks!
  21. Really?! I thought it made you go blind! some said it makes your palm funny.. EDIT: Updated image link. The previous link was mangled because it contain the word sh*t which was censored by the forum software.
  22. http://203.81.47.72/randombabe/ Cheers!
  23. Windows media encoder can stream movies of different bitrates for you.. depending on how fast the viewer'sd connection is. But.. I never found using a dedicated video streaming (software) server necessary. Easiest is to encode and host the video like a normal file.
