    Sennheiser PX 200 Portable Headphones

    The likelyhood on my doing a review of the PX 100 is pretty slim as there is no point in spending money on two very similar headphones. However, I have tried to provide the information on the difference of the two headphones based on my frequent visits of various audiophile forums and...

    Recommend me a digital camera

    Canon A series is excellent get the one you can afford A60 or A70. The battery life on a trip is crucial and they give the best in terms of long life evergy supply. Stay away from xxx digital zooms they are gimmicks and not really to be considered. Its optical zoom which matters most Take a...

    I have made a website and I need some feedback about it.

    I have seen websites designed by pros and some of them not as nice as what you have come up with. I like simplicity and that is what this site of yours is all about. It does not confuse the visitor. Good job! You should do it more often, you have the talent but lack confidence, we provide you...

    How do you partition your Hard Drive?

    When you partition your harddrive make sure that the cluster size is optimal for your drive, the default is 512 b which can make things very slow, a 4K cluster size is good for speed and reliability for a 120 gig drive. If you are not sure how you do that I suggest you hop over to your dirve...

    Pick me a laptop!

    IBM T41 should fit the bill perfectly, I got the T41 and a Dell X300 at the same time for use in the office (mine is a T41) I used both machines and updated them on the web, I am glad I did not go for the Dell. IBM is to me super smooth machine and their customer service is fantastic. Not that I...

    Audiophile new to computer audio would like a little advice

    I knew someone would come up with the idea of using the HD580's, I was just waiting for that! HD 580's CANNOT work due to it's 300 Ohm impedence into the speaker socket of any audio card which basically are rated for 32 Ohms. Sure they will play but you get something like 10 percent of its true...

    Audiophile new to computer audio would like a little advice

    Turtle Beach sound cards are great and they tend to satisfy the bug in an audiophile more than what a Creative sound card would. Hercules and Philips are other two good brands that I had considered in the past when I was in the market for a sound card under $100. I had a $1,000 spare to spend at...

    Top video card for 2D

    Why don't people read the post properly and respond based on the requirements? Parhelia is a $400 card and p750 and P650 also cost more. Matrox is a good 2D card if you are using Analog as already has been mentioned, times are a-changing, DVI is another chapter.

    Audiophile new to computer audio would like a little advice

    Being an audiophile I am sure you are well aware of the brand Altec Lancing. They make some nice speakers for those on a tight budget. I have bought them for friends and also a pair for my use. Althought they are not in service with the computers but connected to my dvd/tv setup in bedroom. I...

    Need Digital Camera Advice

    Playmaker, You are absolutely justified in reconsidering your purchased decision based on what you mentioned in your post. Yes, a 4 MP camera may be an overkill for the purpose. However, the A70 is a nice little camera with same AA cell capabilities and a decent 5 cm macro range for close-ups...

    Which is faster, USB 2 or Firewire???

    Initially when I read about firewire it said 40 times faster than USB 1.1 but my own tests gave me a figure of 28 times faster as far as USB is concerned and the Firewire was more or less as per spec.

    What's the best mouse at the moment?

    Make sure all you guys who use Logitech update their Mouseware to 9.79 which is the latest version. Similarly iTouch is also updated to 2.22 version. I was having silght problems with older version and after having updated it all is now OK.

    What's the best mouse at the moment?

    Just got the MX 700 and cordless Elite Keyboard (Mx Duo) amazing piece of kit! I wish I had bought them much earlier. I too was skeptical about lag, rechargable batteries etc etc. Looks like I was totally wrong in my assumptions. The best thing about the mouse is the rapid charger which is...

    Need Digital Camera Advice

    Canon A80 is a fine camera and uses standard batteries instead of propriety ones which are not as easily available and cheap if you are travelling. Canon A80 is also having a better flash coverage than S400. You should go for the camera, a memory card of atleast 256 (if you are travelling) and a...
