you guys just have tin ears. i bet you can't even hear if a fuse is backwards

http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/usb_20_052709.zip the usb_20.pdf (5.7MB) cables start on page 87 you'd think it would be a good idea to read this before designing the product.. the best audiophile USB cable would be a $5 one, with garden hose, techflex, and pretty heatshrink on top. that way it would look expensive, but still actually work properly

If you want to avoid errors in the data, get a cable that follows the USB specification, and has been tested and has been authorized to use the USB logo. So anything under $25

He is talking about how he noticed the coupling capacitors on the Pico Slim and decided attacking something for being designed properly would be the best new strategy. Those coupling capacitors, IMO, are a much better idea than a virtual ground capable of only 25mA current that that the audio signal also goes through. It all depends how you visualize the schematic...one side of the headphone driver is connected to the amplifier, the other side is connected to the virtual ground (or a real ground, or inverted output in the case of a balanced amp). Something to think about whenever an amp claims it can output 250mA of current... By using single supply (no virtual ground) and coupling capacitors, there is a true low impedance ground which is the battery negative terminal. The capacitors I am using are new and not cheap, electrolytic capacitors of appropriate size would be too large for a thin portable amp. There is much more but that can wait until both of these products are in owners' hands.

supposedly AT&T will be adding 3G in my area in August, so that would be the earliest I could consider the switch. But with a cell the only phone I use, it may not be such a good idea..

i assume theres no way to get a line out from it?

I am working on 4 simultaneously right now, and Elephas's is one of them. So is Vicki's.

you know it would be interesting to see how much damage 1 person on a rampage could have caused at CanJam before being restrained or running out of energy. dump the table with the 2x ES-2s creating sparks and pops everywhere, smash a few R10s against the wall, and while everyone is in shock you could probably destroy the whole room

jp if it can be done, it would be nice if the hotel is under $100 with taxes What about Sleestack's place in San Jose

One of the guys came by my table for a few minutes, tried a pico and gave me his card. "Director of New Technologies" or something like that.

i wont take up much space

just did IAD->SFO for $300 roundtrip

I said >= $300 Besides the Bose are more of an executive toy

We get to eat the crumbs that trickle down from that guy's beard

Its possible Monster will end up doing more for high end headphones than everyone else combined. Before the Beats, has there ever been a >=$300 headphone sold by mainstream electronics stores? They're getting people used to seeing headphones at those prices

I forgot about this, makes me wonder if part of their business at CanJam with the large entourage was scouting for new targets

welcome iron:asshat: I'm sure your link is a repost so prepare to be grilled for it

Grado Headphone Carry Case HiFi Headphones Would like to order 2 of these, but before I do, has anyone seen it from a USA vendor? $80 shipped for 2 cases is a bit steep...

They could at least put a connector on the bottom/back and allow the aftermarket to make a external battery add-ons

i'm sure that's already a lawsuit in progress

Monster Cable CanJam presented by Pepsi?

Does anyone know the dimensions of the new Grado box? GRADO Wooden Box
