But in all honesty - who still uses 128 kb/s mp3s nowadays? 320 or nothing else.TSI wrote:
This. Since your mac's sound card isn't great and it's going straight to the amp, you'll get distortion. I suggest not exceeding 50% there, and going up to 2/3 on the amp. Also, be aware that 128 kb/s mp3 is going to have crappy bass at high volume no matter what you play it on.west-phoenix-az wrote:
Have you tried turning the volume down on the Mac?
volume down on mac, adjust volume on amp. that's the way I do it with my speakersFinray wrote:
Mac goes straight to the amp which then goes through the speakers.
Volume is max on the Mac, about 1/4 on the amp before the bass crackles.
for a fatty you're a serious intellectual lightweight.
Anyone here got any experience with helmet cams? I'm looking for buy one to use while enduro riding. Looking at the Contour HD 1080p at the moment.

Considered it, but the recording quality really doesn't look much better, it's $160 more expensive and it just looks weird in my opinion.bugz wrote:

vs

but that's just my opinion, i'm still certainly considering the Go Pro Hero HD.
I thought the contour only shot 30fps in HD where the go pro could do 60. Bunch of my buddies got the go pro for snowboarding and it looks great. One of them is a pro filmer and uses his all the time for us, not in the vids though.
Both shoot 1080p at 30fps and 720p at 60fps according to the specs. It's possible he has a different Go Pro model which does do 1080p at 60fps.Nic wrote:

I don't think you can get better than that.

Thats what I meant @720p, I thought the contour only did 30 there. I know the colors on the GoPro come out great and it when slowing it down it comes out better than some other ~$6000 dollar cameras. Don't know much about the contour other than that it has some nice features the GoPro does not.Little BaBy JESUS wrote:

Certainly not denying it looks good, just not sure if it looks an extra $190 good. It's almost double the price of the contour here in Australia.Finray wrote:

You will be happy with either.
iPhone 5 comes out tomorrow. Anybody else curious as to what Apple has come up with?

I have a feeling it's going to be 4S, not 5
I need a new phone so i'll probably be buying it soon

Apparently they've been working on both an update to the iPhone 4 (the 4S) and an entirely new iPhone, as evidenced by the cases sent to many store which could in no way hold an iPhone 4. Unless they've changed the body on the iPhone 4 for th 4S update (doubtful), I think it is safe to assume we can expect an entirely new phone.
At least that's what speculation brings me to believe.

Can somebody recommend me a good large external hard drive? I need something with more than 2tb Because I now have 3 x 2b hard drives stacked on top of each other for my movies and it's getting all a bit messy.
I know fucking karate

Thanks...Is 3tb generally the max for these kind of things? 4tb would be perfect but I can work with 3.
Also any reason why seagate is slightly more expensive?

Wow. The i5 2500k is like 70.00 cheaper at Microcenter than newegg... looks like im going to the store.
No idea, I'd have to google, so do it yourself.justice wrote:

Not really, they're not a very bespoke brand.justice wrote:

apparently it drops immediately after every update, i cant imagine releasing a nonexistent update would hurt them - people will still buy them by the millions.
i guess we'll just have to wait another year for them to release something significant.
im excited to see what the nexus prime will bring, though im still quite pleased with my SGSII
