how much did yours go for @Breex243? #lazyweb asking here.

Custom built desk with cable storage/management underneath. Custom computer shelf. Custom speaker stands/lamps. All of it took about 1'ish week to build/plan/etc. Click through on the image for more pics.

wouldn't you lose the benefits of being able to return the monitor if it is by chance bad coming from a 3rd party ebay reseller? i've not bought stuff like this from ebay, so maybe it is a standard practice to have the same return policies as it would be buying straight from the manufacturer.

Trageta, I LOVE your jerker and monitor mod. Everything is so clean and perfectly minimalist.

So, I finally made the leap and bought a usb DAC to power my M-Audio AV40's. When music is playing (and it sounds great, btw!) and I proceed to do anything CPU intensive, I get a lot of static/chatter over the speakers. Now, I'll preface that by saying, I'm not using any overly expensive USB...

cleaned up the desk a bit and added an e-mu 0202 usb dac.

UncleDavid218, Nice setup. It still amazes me how people react to some of the setups posted on here (the negative reactions I'm referring to). Anyway here is my hackintosh setup:

Throc: War Damn Eagle! Good to see some natives around [H] from time to time. Back on point, I've modified my IKEA Jerker and built extra stuff onto it, but am about to start a full custom desk build tomorrow combining some ideas from you fine folks and some of the folks on overclockers.net...

Criccio, i have that same monitor, as well as an LG 246w; no matter how much tweaking i've done to the LG, the Gateway still looks more accurate with regards to colors, blacks, whites, etc.

congrats on the purchase, i almost pulled the trigger on the hp too, but decided my ips gateway 21" and pva/mva lg 246w will be fine for a while, though having dual lcds of the same resolution would be nice. ultimately the pink/green tinting, fuzzy text and poor out of the box (not as big a...

my semi old ikea jerker setup. soon to be selling the jerker and building one to fit better in the nook in my office and to wall mount the lcds plus an lcd tv above. anyway, enjoy. p.s. the monitor stand was custom built from an old corner desk i had a few years back, i added an ipod dock...

1.) Yes if I'm at the computer, he usually lays up there 2.) Surprisingly no, not much that I can see (the receiver is easily 8 years old now, and still kickin') 3.) Not that high really, maybe about 5 feet off the ground, he usually jumps up on the main desk part and then jumpsup on top of...
