| itunes/ext hard drive integration I bought one of those USB 2.0 MiniPros a few months to transfer files to clients when I go see them. Itis a very snappy drive. I also bought six of the 3TB USB 2.0 desktop versions with Seagate drives for backing up work and media files. I'm havin... | |
| Mac question "Lindisfarne, The first question should be is when you insert the thumb drive into the mac, does an icon appear on the desktop?"BINGO!Before you can double click a song or drag the music files to your iTunes folder, the drive has to be mounted on ... | |

| Why aren't new vacuum tubes as good as old ones? Tpreaves is right. There are places like Groove Tubes that caters to musicians, but all my favorite tubes come from WWII era contractors. Technology based on tubes was ubiquitous then, but now there simply is no need for them. | |
| Does Apple airport express work well? Man, with all these wireless ooglemeiers spewing EMFs all over the place, you guys are liable to grow a third eye. Maybe that's how that kid in China got those 16 extra fingers and toes. | |
| Best way to test your system? I don't necessarily agree with this.It really depends on what type of music the system is designed for. A low-powered SET system would be incredible sounding in its niche, but there's no way I'd try to crank a movie through it. I realize this is a... | |
| Proac 1sc or 2D for this size room Wow, I've been out of it for awhile. I'm a former ProAc owner and really loved those guys. Is the D Two a resurrection of the much heralded 2S? | |
