Does anyone know where I could find a cheap sheet metal rackmountable box? (like a rack drawer stuck shut) I have some custom electronics that I'm looking to mount. Ideal size would be 2U, ~8" deep. I found a couple of places willing to sell me boxes like this, but I refuse to pay $80 for...

just brought home a behringer ha4600 headphone amp today, and ... channels 2 and 3 refuse to be silent. even with the the volume controls all the way down, i hear what seems to be a mono mix of the main input. it's not terribly loud, but it is very clearly audible. channels 1 and 4 are...

i got myself a Hafler TA1600 to drive my passive monitors, and now i'm wondering about controlling the volume. There are separate L & R volume knobs on the amp, but recently i seem to recall some pretty lengthy discussions about how you should control the source volume, and not use volume...

thought i'd share ... just got my Yorkville YSM1's in the mail today that i bought used on ebay. don't see any flaws on them, they sound AWESOME, and last but not least, they cost me all of $60 for the pair!! man, the stereo image ... i didn't know what i was missing. well, i did, but i...

does yorkville sell replacement drivers for the YSM series? (for those of us who've passed the warranty...)

I'm curious ... How does MP3 bitrate correspond to sampling frequency? is a 128kbps mp3 comparable to, say, an 8-bit 32khz wav file? or something else? When you move down in bitrate, what aspects are compromised? Obviously there are a number of processes that go on to decrease filesize...

Not knowing much about this kind of stuff, and without much research, a friend of mine put up some money for a Deura P.A. He asked for my opinion on it, but I'd never heard of them. Has anyone?

have any of you guys ever dealt with a keyboard wavering between notes? i have a cheapie 4-octave "MIDI Composer" that i've just been using to practice, but i'm finding that when i play, every few minutes the entire keyboard will shift by half a step. not in a vibrato kind of way -- the whole...

I'm in the market for a new hard drive, and i'm wondering whether it would be worth it to shell out the extra money for a drive with an 8MB buffer instead of 2MB. I currently have a 7200rpm Maxtor, I've had it for a year or so, and maybe I got a dud, but this thing squeals like hell, i NEED it...

a general technical question .... like everyone else, i've dealt with tracking down noise from poorly shielded cables .... but now i'm wondering, electrically, how does that work? specifically in an unbalanced cable, if the signal is just made up from the voltage difference between the positive...

i'm using a SBLive! with an Asus A7V333 board, Athlon XP 1700+, in windows xp pro .... i just found another sblive! card lyring around, and thought it would be interesting to run the two cards at the same time, so i could have 4 inputs. (i realize that soundblaster is not a high-end card, but...

ok, i'm just into this recording stuff for fun, and until now i haven't dedicated much time to recording drums. but i'm trying to get some practice in, and i was hoping some of you all could critique what i've got so far. don't worry about the playing, it's just messing around. just focus on the...

hi everyone, been lurking for a bit ... but now i've got a general question: people always emphasize the importance of a fully-balanced signal chain. i understand that long mic cables definitely need the shielding that balanced cables provide. yet speaker cables aren't balanced, and (please...
