Just me or do speakers in cell phones sound harsh?
Look at the Krell cell phone. It weighs 62lbs and runs pure class A. Of course, the battery pack which consist of six car batteries, has to pulled around in your kids wagon. That gets you about five minutes of talk time and recharging takes a day....

Laptop as Music Server - Wear?
I was using an MSI Wind Nettop for about 6 months(both the single core and dual core version). The Wind worked fine once I changed the stock fan for a quieter unit. However, under full load it did tend to get a bit noisy. Two reasons for changing ... 
Laptop as Music Server - Wear?
FIT PC2The FIT is so small you can Velcro it to the back of your monitor. Stick a 500GB or 750GB 2.5" laptop drive in it an under full load it only draws about 6 watts.I put a 30GB OCZ SSD in it as the boot drive. The reason for this is that there...

SPDIF to USB converter???
The USB input on the AMR CD77 is limmited to 16bit/48khz sampling. So, even if you set the Panasonic to output stereo PCM, the AMR CD77 is going to choke. In addition, USB2 is limited to 24/96 which means the only things your going to be able to s...

2 channel Preamp brain?

Need help in picking a 300w 7channel amp.
Going from a 200w to 300w amp isn't going to give you much more volume. Remember, doubling your watts doesn't double your volume. 
Is This Feasible?
Don't both speakers use the same mid and tweeter? So, other than allowing you to position the "woofers" in the 2.3's from the Mid/Tweeter in the 2.1's, what purpose would this serve? Wouldn't be easier to just use a sub, or a pair of subs, with th... 
Wi-Fi Limitations and Sample rates...16/44.1
MP,Yes, you keep saying it was to do with sound processing and I'm agreeing with you. Networking, and streaming of audio files, has nothing to do with sound processing: apples and oranges. Any computer can have problems playing audio files if it's... 
Wi-Fi Limitations and Sample rates...16/44.1
Think about it. If older versions of Windows were re-sampling data packets traveling over a network, then all data would be adulterated or corrupted whether it be a picture, music, excel spreadsheet etc. Because Windows, or any operating system, d... 
Wi-Fi Limitations and Sample rates...16/44.1
Mapman,Windows win95, win98 and WinXP do not down sample network packets on a wireless network. Windows XP kmixer does re-sample audio to 44.1 or 48k.Your confusing digital to analog conversion in a soundboard with streaming packets of data over a...
