Those that have one how do you find it to be size wise in your pockets? Same size as my wallet, but for ease i keep it in a different pocket. when i ride my bike i have the iPhone in my front pocket and i see nothing BIG about it..just like my wallet. i do wish my wallet was much bigger

two great points about buying use is the price and you don't have to burn them in..and unlike headphone amps or other shit speaker burn in is a fact. burning them in can be a real pain in the ass... one more reason why i will never buy new speakers again. if you go used you can get a set of dynaudio 122's. they fit all your requirments and are well noted for Home theater. their MTM design makes them seriously great for music listening and they will last you forever!

Home Depot SCAM!!!!!!! HEAD CASE WATCH OUT! Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends. Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say "No" and instead ask you for a ride to another Home Depot. You agree and they get in the backseat. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet. I had my wallet stolen March 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th and 29th. Also April 1st, 4th, twice on the 8th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this upcoming weekend. So tell your friends to be careful. P.S. Walmart has wallets on sale 2. 99 each

I get the jest and as far as i roll i do legit, i give this one or two more weeks till something else comes along, esp now that football season is coming. it was weird how silent the place became and how people got involved in it, surprisingly. if it gains a following at all (which i doubt) i will back it off, you know technical problems like the iphone locking up then no movie night. we pay legal for the dish on every tv so i wonder what the rules are if the movie is coming from the dish? the contract we have for the dish is full legit to show the public, i wonder.. next thing i am going to test out is running a photo slide show from the classic/phone for advertising on the unused tv's at night, like show pics with text for beers we carry and stuff like that. that was one reason why i bought the video out cable. years back payper view boxing matches where policed around the neighborhood bars, hardcore really! they sent a letter saying you owe us this much for not paying up and showing according to rules, then they try settling it with you for much less. funny part is we got the letter but there was no boxing match on our tv's, actually there was a big football game on and we had the security cameras to prove it. it came down to who's equipment was responsible for the broadcast (the owner of the source) and proof they had to have to back up their claim. our Lawyer (not one of my personal attorneys) sent a letter back telling them whats the deal and we never heard back. they pulled a monster cable type bully move..but the bars that did do the deed had to settle..not a fun thing. again posting about this on a forum may seem faulty but for them to pull any weight they will need lots of hard proof, not something a user on a headphone forum said..

I thought about it and all but rite now its small term (i mean its run off my phone here). of course i understand it will be kept on the small and the projector install was not only been thought of for other reasons but to make room on the dance floor (can move out the dj booth and big screen tv). the same rules can be said for music yet every dj in every bar and club makes their living off not following the rules. not charging at the door and if it came down to it i would be more then happy to show the few little dollars that this will bring in ontop of an average night, in fact if you have change for a ten i could settle it out rite here...haha of course they don't work like that in the dickhead world huh? i believe your not supposed to broadcast even an fm radio station also yet how many places do you go and hear an fm station?

So last night was the first official "Movie Night" at my bar thanks to the iPhone and video out cables hooked in the big screen behind the bar. It was really weird cause everybody was silent, this is a 4am bar and from 12-2am on a week night slow as it may be it's never that silent! people would walk in the bar and just stop and look cause the silence was such a surprise. i had all other tv's and sound off but the main tv with its volume cranked so anyone sitting at the bar could hear. at one point towards the end of the movie we had 22 people in a 65 capacity building All dead silent! lot's of people that never show in the week made it out just for the movie. I remember cleaning up the Pizza on one of the tables in the back at 1:30am and all you could hear was the compressors in the coolers turning on...weird! it was so unlike a bar and more of a theater that you felt weird talking. The movie i played was an itunes download of "21", everybody was sooooo into it! they all said next Tuesday at 12 they will be back and they don't want to know the movie i am going to play then. I tried to load a bunch of HD video podcasts in the iPhone from itunes but needless to say most did not load and the few that did had a playing error once selected on the phone.. iPhone will not load anything High Def as of now. the itunes download quality on the 50 is actually really good, atleast DVD quality on such a big screen, i am using handbrake now to try some different presets to convert some dvds i have on the lappy. i wonder what use i am going to find for the iPhone next at my business, fucking thing pays for itself every new way i find to apply it in my business.....wow! also of course there are already talks about sending video out to other tv's, hooking the audio into the 70v sound system in the bar, and even trying out a Hd projector covering the entire dance floor area (12 by 12 foot screen size) with blueRay for the future if this Movie night keeps pulling in even something of a crowd.

NEW - Enigma Audio website and products
bhd812 replied to Grand Enigma's topic in Product Annoucements
For $355-- on a .5m i/c i want to be able to read about it lot's more. its to damn simple, tell me why you choose the litz braid and how many light years it has taken you to make and how much NASA research went into the exact material construction of the tube flex and why you went with Cryo treated shit with little monkeys.. I am not going to buy any of that shit on the site.... only cause i am more then happy with the Enigma Audio i/c's i have not only connecting my entire speaker rig, headphone rig, computer rig and now one set in the dj booth at the bar and that site does not tell me why i should even try to "upgrade" and try out these new i/c's. one way of an easy sale is to beat your other products, compare the new with the old, talk about how the old sold this and this many and why you think the new is better, have customers tell their personal stories on how your product is used and why they choose to buy it and maybe even post photos of their gear..in return offer a discount for the rite to advertise their words and pics, hell that would bring you more sales. Zach the $100 cable you let me try out from the old Ohio meet years back not only has taken the place of the Cardas Neutral ref ($500 each pair), but wowed me somuch i not only lined all my setups with it but today i have no real thought of trying anything else out there...i am just that happy with the product you sold me... you one of the few cable sellers out there to do what you did..one of the very few. -
straight out of the phone.. Apple Store (U.S.) - Apple Component AV Cable is the one i bought. same price just has the seperate Red, green, BLue video outs instead of the older yellow only found on composite.
-
So i bought this component video out cable from apple today cause i had to go back in the mall (date thing), i tested a downloaded "Toy Story" on a the 50 plasma i have behind the bar (its one of three 50s while the others are 42s). the video out was not that bad at all, actually nothing different then a dvd. the video was from itunes store so maybe i can convert in higher res myself with other movies i have. i have played around for some time before about converting movies, i tried the free stuff and settled in on avex dvd to ipod converter...it works easy and it works. i am not really shooting for blue ray 1080P quality niether, just something that looks good on a 50 from a 10 feet away. i was thinking of having movie night at my bar on the slower nights, you know take a request for a movie a week before, on the night of the movie we order pizza and have a bunch of chips and popcorn and stuff for the customers or something. the cable costs the same as the composite Apple sells, but only the component works on the new nano, classic, touch and iphone. i figured i will be using my iPhone or my Classic and i will mostly be hooking them up to hdtv's with RGB inputs anyway so why not go with a better video connection even for simple ipod video formats? the cable is pretty nice and pretty long so you have plenty of room to reach around the tv itself. it even comes with a charger plug so you can even charge your ipod/phone while playing the videos. i do all of my movie watching from my computer (32 screen) so i have been buying up the itunes movies instead of dvds (i think there really is no point to dvds to me anymore). YAY another use for my phone!!!!

actually her name was Kurwa...there you go!

just got back from the genius bar. walked and and told them the probs and how i did multi hard restores. he looked at it and noticed the phone was not picking up the wifi at the store and told me he is going to reset the settings to see if that works. it did not work so he bought out a shiny new "Kurwa" (thats my iPhones name) and said here you go...well i got a new 1st gen phone. all in all i was there maybe 5 mins! the people at the orland park apple store are so nice, the dude i was talking to a few weeks back about the airport extreme and the remote app comes up to me and asked how was the bar business going. i was shocked he remembered, and no i didnt smell like a bar neither.. right now i am loading my backup from old Kurwa, i am kind of sad my first baby is gone...oh well! Apple Rocks My Socks for Customer service!!! its easy to see how they have somany fan boys, you back up your customer they will return. i was worried about today cause i did not know how it was going to go but it was over in 5 mins with nothing but smiles all around. and so does Dell and kaspersky, Dell is sending me a free restore disc cause of micro's service pack 3 locked my lappy and kaspersky helped me install their software earlier! i was Surpised Dell is doing this to a out of warranty lappy and the problem is me loosing the disc and windows for locking the lappy up. good now i can install my new 160gb drive on it when the disk comes in to go along with my 2gigs of Ramm i just put in and my wood lappy case! i am such a sucker for customer service, it's something i never take for granted wish i could find a girlfriend with this kind of customer service..wait...

loaner would have to be given cause they can not expect someone to roll without a phone...its nto like an ipod where you dont need to have.

GOt a date with them at 10:30 tomorrow, weekends are to busy for me and i am sure for them also. I restored her after i got home on saturday mourning, the phone did not want to sync with itunes it just wanted to keep restoring. she works now but no app's are working and the phone does not see any wifi networks. the hour on the clock changes randomly but atleast i can make phone calls with her. she is under a year old and she is a 16gb first gen so she better be covered. wtf is Apple going to do to fix her besides giving me a replacement i can't really imagine but the peeps at the orland park store are pretty good so i trust their choice of fix nomatter what it is. The only thing i did to her on Friday is update some new app's but nothing else.
-
At the bar now in the dj booth and guess what wants me to connect it to itunes? guess i will be going to apple tomorrow...mother fucker. software is the newest out 2.0.1
-
the phone started working really slow so i restarted it, when it came on it told me to sync with itunes.. so here i am at my house restoring my shit when i should be at the bar, hope restore takes less the 45 mins

Logi should come with some release in the future with what they plan on doing to U.E. and why they even bought them up. A few Key U.E. people have left the company already over the last year so you may say U.E. has already been on a changing road as any baby company goes threw. I don't Like holding companies cause they care not about what the purpose of the product is but instead just pure profit in large form. They may Split up U.E. into different smaller ideas like just keep the U.E. brand for the pro market and custom market and then move U.E.'s universal-fit under Logi's name and OEM for other brands like Monster cable for example. The U.E. you all come to love again has been slowly changing and this is just another step, I really can not see this being bad or good either way for either brand but its going to change the U.E. we know of for sure. The higher up people at U.E. made a very smart choice cause there is a shit load of new companies in the earphone market popping up left and right, so its smart to get out while your ahead. I don't think The roady dude Jerry Harvey who started the company I think has been out of it for a long time...i think i heard that..anyone know?

I wonder how much of a shock do you need to mess up a ipod's hard drive. i can see dropping it from so many feet up but noway can road bumps hurt it...i mean your talking some really bad jolts...your car would be messed up first before the hard drive in your ipod would get even close to being hurt. i never understood why people that ask this question don't figure what would happen to your car in the long run if the driving was that bad. are people that messed up about hard drives? is there a reports of ipods messing up in a car? Last winter i went over a pot hole and the hit was so bad it cracked my front rim (i mean the rim had a spilt in it) and bent my back rim. that was the worst hit i ever sustained from the road in all my years driving, still that would be nowhere near the force an ipod would feel in a high fall. you have to remember the ipod is not taking on the force in a car directly as the rims are.
