I am looking to purchase a good set of either version, three or four. If you or someone you know are thinking of selling theirs, let me know. I am a serious buyer, but at a reasonable price, thanks.

It looks like a pen stabbed into the top of a mobile "micro" mouse, but it's not ideal for left-handed consumers.

I?ve been using using MPC-HC + LAV + MadVR for some time and recently decided to get it running as best as possible. I?d like to use Jinc in MadVR for my upscaling but wondering how important this is when I only have 1080p movies playing (obviously) in 1080p. Sure there?s a little filtering involved but I?m thinking the difference would be minimal when my source and output is the same resolution anyway? The reason I ask is because I?m currently using the onboard HD4000 gpu and also for audio output via HDMI (now working with TrueHD, woohoo!). I?m happy to buy a half decent gpu but if the difference is going to be 2 tenths of bugger all, then I don?t want to add 50-100W of power usage to the system in the form of a GTX650 (or similar). Current systems specs ? Intel i3-2120T 8gb G.Skill 1866mhz DDR3 OCZ 60gb SSD of some description Win7 64-bit ?about 9tb of space and more to come :)

I bought a CC-590 v4 which I like very much. Now as far as mains, is there any real difference between the studio 100 vs.the monitor11? I do not have a place close to do A /B comparison, so this is why I ask.

I bought this Plasma TV in 2010 and i hardly ever use it, has *Maybe* 5hrs of use on it, at the MOST! My issue im having with it is i have SNOW all over screen or what some people i keep seeing calling it "Sparkles". I've watched hours of youtube videos to see that most people are saying it is a PSU issue due to failing caps, and what not.. I have pulled the PSU and being that this tv has virtually only 5hrs or less of run time, everything inside it looks perfect. A neighbor of mine de-soldered a few caps on the PSU, and checked them, they were perfect, so he soldered what he took out right back in. I see I can get a new PSU for this TV for 50-75$ new, but also came across a video on youtube where a service tech said to make sure the Setpots are adjusted to manufactures set points. I took a picture of the sticker that tells me the correct voltage for "Ve" and Vsus" AC voltage readings, but my question is this; Where are the contact points to put my meter leads to check the voltage on these setpoints? And I CAN NOT find the setpot for "Ve" only for "Vsus" but i took a pic of the only other 2 adjustable setpots, so maybe you all can point me in the right direction? Thank you SO VERY MUCH, and look forward to see if someone might have the time to help me :T http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...ps0e60f3e3.jpg http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...ps8fbd83ec.jpg http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...psb9f82dc0.jpg http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/v...ps7679c9fc.jpg

Hi. I have read the posting graphs info so I hope my jpegs are correct. I have also included my .mdat file. I am trying to get a room/home studio set up for mixing music. I may look to start recording in the room but for now I would like to concentrate on creating a better mixing environment. Room info: Fairly large: approx 5M X 4M X 4M. It is carpeted. There are two large bay windows at the top of the room in front of which my speakers are positioned symmetrically facing down the room. It is furnished with studio equipment around the top. The center of the room is open and spacious with a large leather sofa against one side facing a large marble mantelpiece on the other. The bottom left of the room has a large loft-bed raised two meters with clothing etc hanging underneath and the door is situated at the bottom right. The two walls above the sofa and mantelpiece cover a large surface area which is very open and bare. I run a Windows 7 PC system with audio via a Focusrite liquid saffire 56 which feeds a pair of KRK VXT8s. I bought the UMIK-1 and have setup REW with it's calibration file correctly (as far as i can tell). I made the measurement running the sweep through both monitors with the mic pointing upwards situated in the mixing position. I thought I would post this info now to get some initial feedback. Thanks very much for your time. Attachments Attached Files May 19 16_19_02.mdat (2.43 MB)

Not sure if this is the right place for this post. Sure it will get moved if it is not !! Any way, I recently built a set of the CSS VX.2 Monitor speakers. ( Build Thread in CSS Forum) I am running them threw a Pioneer 822K reciever. These are currently the only speakers I am running off the amp. I watch a lot of my movies off of Netflix threw my PS3. Which of course is routed threw the reciever. When I watch movies, they sounds fantastic !! Vocals are clean and clear and Sounds Effects / explosions / weapons ect are deep and smooth, it honestly sounds like i have a 10" sub in the corner. Even back ground music and other music threw movies has a nice deep, rich bass note. Now as soon as I want to listen to just music, I either plug in my IPOD threw the ipod dock on the reciever or I may watch videos threw You Tube / PS3 . But the quality just seem much different, the bass is just not there, I can play with DLed EQ on my Ipod and get some pretty good results , but it still not what I hear when I am watching movies. I know Netflix runs DD signal is this what is making all the difference??? I thought You Tube was also supposed to use a DD signal as well??? Thoughs suggestions?? ON a side note, when playing my music, I can walk around the room and notice big differences in the bass response. if I STAND up on the couch the bass is much deeper , as soon as I sit down to normal listening position the bass changes drastically , vocals remain the same. I am curious if the 12ft celings are causing this ?? But then I have to go back to my movies, bass notes threw the movies are perfect in the regular listening position deep and rich and fill the room??? KInda confused The room is approx 14'/12'/12' , the reason for the high celing is its a mid level living room so its offset from main florro and uppper floor of the house.
