    WTB: Pair of Titan XP's or 1080ti's with waterblocks

    My Titan X Maxwell's are acting up and were feeling a little long in the tooth anyway. As the thread title suggests, I'm on the lookout for a pair of Titan XP's or 1080ti's. Not fussy about brands, but would prefer them to have waterblocks and be in good shape. Thank you!

    FS: EK Rad XT 360

    EK-CoolStream RAD XT (360) radiator - I love the look of these, but, sadly, this will not fit in my rig. Some minor fin damage in spots. $50 shipped/paypal'd eBay feedback: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=mizer357&ftab=FeedbackAsSeller&searchInterval=30...

    Home Studio: What is best/most ubiquitous DAW for Windows?

    I don't think it's the best, but Pro Tools is still an industry standard... every studio of note has some kind of setup with it and I regularly get passed PT source files. Beyond that, my experience is that it comes down to personal preferences. If you're not planning on passing files back and...

    Corsair SP2500's vs Mackie CR4's

    I dunno fellas, I've been playing through a Bel Canto C7R amp (class D) and KEF LS50s (passive) all morning, and it sounds flippin fantastic.

    Corsair SP2500's vs Mackie CR4's

    Sorry if I wasn't clear. I was referring to a speaker's specific voicing, not an equalizer.

    Corsair SP2500's vs Mackie CR4's

    I think everyone likes/wants detail. It's the EQ curve and soundstage that can excite people's ears.

    Is this rust?

    It looks like the nickel plating is wearing off and the underlying copper is being exposed. Do you have a silver kill coil in the loop by any chance? You don't want to scrub that as it will only pronounce the effect.

    Corsair SP2500's vs Mackie CR4's

    I don't think there's a prejudice against pro gear. I've worked in pro audio environments for almost 20 years, and it's universally acknowledged that studio monitors are the professional's tools for the job. It's also true that these same professionals generally do not use monitors as primary...

    New Sennheiser flagship headphone incoming

    Wow, the Utopias. Awesome. I love the Focal brand... I had the pleasure of listening to the floorstanders a little while back, and they were mind blowing, with a mind blowing price tag. I gather you're happy with them? I'm currently running with the HD800 and LCD-2, as well as the IE800s. The...

    New Sennheiser flagship headphone incoming

    Curious to see what the HD820 brings to the table since there's no info out there at the moment. Headphones have been a pain in my wallet, so it's with both anticipation and trepidation that I wait to hear some impressions on these things. I imagine they will sound great, given Sennheiser's...

    New Sennheiser flagship headphone incoming

    I guess they felt the need to fill a gap between their $1700 HD800S and $55K Orpheus. Sigh.

    Corsair SP2500's vs Mackie CR4's

    I appreciate your understanding of speaker engineering, and, to be honest, a lot of what you just said went completely over my head. I will say that the lines are heavily blurred these days between professional studio monitors and good consumer speakers. But I come from a music and audio...
