Can you put your location in your profile? Are you looking for 9800 specifically, or will any AGP card do ?

AD700 has some bass when the source calls for it, however the bass does not go deep or feel thumpy/tactile. So bass-heads might not like it that much. Being open-backed, its got a big soundstage. For me, it serves well with movies & games. Many FPS players seem to like it for its soundstage.

Where is SMC on SP road? One word: Context.

Seriously ?? If you like getting ripped off, everyone should start doing same? In my experience, all the guys here only know to sell. After that, you're on your own. I've had bad experiences with all of the big names in SP with after sales support. Surabhi: Bad experience getting my...

Thanks for sharing. Just curious, how were you driving the headphones initially. From the post, I guess you were mostly using a laptop. Did you try it with a soundcard ?

As iaudio mentioned, the Topping Amps shine with sensitive speakers. My guess is that the MS speakers aren't that sensitive. Many passive speakers have a low impedance in addition to a low sensitivity, and aren't a suitable match. I believe even Wharfedales aren't that sensitive, so those are...

Soundcard: + Will have ADC in addition to DAC. Basically, it means you can also record audio in addition to hearing + Possibilty of having multichannel decoding (Asus DX, ST with daughtercard, most creative chipset based SC) - Non portable (Unless you call opening the case and plugging the...

Man, this is pathetic. Projects are assigned to students so that they learn how to practically build software. If your friend wants to just download this from the net, why is she studying for her degree? She might as well download her 'degree certificate' from the net instead of wasting her...

I wouldn't be so sure. There's a long list of discredited 'babas' but that doesn't stop new ones from rising. I think there are 2 reasons for this 1.>Cultural From a young age, we are taught to be irrational and superstitious, regardless of our religion. The babas need merely to channel into...

Not to mention politicians who see everything as conspiracy against them. Case in point, Mamta Banerjee. According to her, literally every rape that happens in Kolkatta/Bengal is a conspiracy to bring down her government. And all rape victims are loose characters given to lying. Finally, when a...

It takes some time even getting it to India, not so much because of shipping delays, but more due to of customs clearance. I had ordered SoundMagic PL-50s from mp4nation quite some time ago. If I remember right, mp4nation had them shipped within 1 week, but the biggest delay was at the Indian...

You can't really blame most housewifes as they haven't had much exposure to the world, so they're very gullible. However for guys to go along with this is irrational, and they have only themselves to blame. Yuvi should have sought medical treatment right from the time he was diagnosed. Luckily...

It's a Japanese brand, and very well respected in Home Theatre circles. Their entry level offerings (< 1Lakh) are where their best offerings lie. You should have atleast looked it up in Wikipedia :-P http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onkyo

I'd recommend TestDisk for recovering deleted partitions. http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk It's a console based application (No GUI), but its easy to understand. The app's functionality is limited to recovering MBR and partitions, and it's very good at this. However if the partition has...

Congrats. You've broken into the 'audiophile' club now It seems to be that your speakers are rear ported. If so, you might want to consider giving them more breathing space from the wall. Do post some impressions when you have the time, or even better, make it a review :-)

Thumb rule - always enquire whether warranty is manufacturer provided, or dealer provided. If it's the latter case (or not provided at all), its certain that the item is grey market, with all the hassles that it entails.

You will not be needing a voltage stabilizer along with UPS. Almost all UPS have inbuilt voltage stabilizer. However voltage stabilizers & UPS' are designed to deal with a continuous low or high voltage within their tolerance levels. They aren't really meant to meant to handle sudden high...

True, but the problem is that these ROMs should ideally be pushed out by the vendors, and not by enthusiasts. I believe most manufacturers will not, for eg entertain warrantly claims with custom ROMs. And getting root on devices without vendor support/winking is a pain in the butt.

I think this issue is blown out of proportion. As a user, if an app doesn't work on my phone, i'll go looking for alternatives. The pain is on the developer's side, who have to ensure their apps work across variety of devices. The more relevant issue to users is that of OS upgrade support, or...

Intel can claim anything in their ad's. It doesn't have to meet reality. Reality would be for you to figure out after shelling out your hard earned moolah, unless you clue up by doing some research I use Axe deo (the chocolate flavour, that too) but I don't see any attractive females wanting...
