    Zen Vison:m users - make them LOUDER !

    I suggest leaving the Vol cap in place and getting some IEM's or noise cancelling headphones so you don't go deaf.

    Tape to CD?

    I use CDWAVE which automatically can split the tracks. You can plug Lame into if you want to make MP3's out of them. My favorite cassettes I usually make a Audio CD from aswell.

    Firefox2 problem

    I've had this problem before but can't remember how I fixed it. Basically FF crashes and deleted all the bookmarks. After this has happened FF will no longer remember any customisations (adding buttons etc) I make to the toolbar. Any ideas?

    Enclosures what do you have?

    I've never been happy with the heat these fanless enclosures create. At least if theres a PSU in there the box tends to be bigger and have a fan. Or like I said have it on the plug so there one less cable. Even one tiny makes a big difference to the heat of a drive IMO.

    External SATA RAID or JBOD for a laptop

    Hook the drives to cheap NAS boxes, or an old PC used as a NAS and hook it up to a WiFi router or just a router.

    Enclosures what do you have?

    Looking for a 3.5 SATA enclosure that uses a fan for cooling, has power saving features, and preferably has an internal PSU or it on the plug so there isn't a power brick (pet hate).

    Headphone tip stuck in socket!

    I was thinking of trying to insert a drill bit down into the tip thats left and if it "bites" it might come out. I don't intend drilling, but was thinking even a tiny bit of shaving might cause an electrical problem. I don't care about the tip and its wasn't an expensive deck (obviously)...

    Headphone tip stuck in socket!

    I've a Sony TC-KE400S and the tip of a headphone is stuck in the headphone socket. Its was bought very cheap, do you reckon if I take of the outside casing I'd be able to get at it, or has anyone got a better idea?

    Preamps what dey do?

    I'm a bit clueless when it comes to HiFi. What does a preamp do. I see talk of phono preamps which I assume boost the signal level from a phono input into a regular amp. But then I see regular amps used as preamps for other amps. Whats that all about then?

    Looking for a cheap amp (used)

    My old Arcam Delta 290 (bought 2nd hand a few months back) died recently. (Was left on now doesn't come on) I was wondering to get a basic Sony amp like a Sony TA-FE370 or a Super T Sonic. Dunno where to get the latter delivered in the EU. Or is the Arcam worth getting fixed, though I dunno...

    PC amplifier

    Any more happen with this, its an interesting idea. I like the integral PSU less cable clutter.

    Looking for a cheap amp (used)

    I've read that its best at low volumes and if its cranked to far, it tends to sound too bright and a better PSU helps a bit.
