  1. It's pretty beast, range is amazing, speeds over wireless are close to wired, and configuration was pretty easy, i say pretty easy... cause i knew what i was doing... lol then again I didn't just do the normal setup... it's working like a bridge with my provided router/modem in one from verizon

    Were you using your previous router as a bridge too? That could also be the source of your wirless issue at your home. I actually disabled the Verizon Wifi and use my Airport Extreme mainly as the wireless router. And I get consistent speed across the house. Try both and see what's better.
     
  3. damn.. that router looks tempting. My wifi's been getting whole bunch of hiccups.. but then again.. 100 something for a router..

    and @ ff why not get the 650s? lol. damn I just looked and they have these 598s.. sexy as hell.. Might get a pair once they drop a bit in price.

    I don't have the money right now for 650's, and the 598's are definitely sexy, but at 100 dollars more than the 595's the increase in quality doesn't make up for the increase in price; atleast not from the reviews I've read.

    The 595's are enough for now. I'll step it up to HD800's one day I suspect... its a sickness.
     
  5. lol, the old router was the one broadcasting.... the verizon router/modem was shut off from broadcasting...... the fact of the matter is that my sis is getting full signal strength with the new router in the same place as the old.... i also streamed avatar 1080p last night without a single bit of lag, as i saw the ps3 media server push more bitrate through... it was worth it... that other one was already pretty old....and a budget one at that..

    also... my internet has stopped dropping randomly at times...

    upload speed has dropped it seem but then again im paying for 15/5:

    Thanks. I've been running the S.Drives all year round for almost 2 years and I love them. Had to replace the rear set due to camber wear which was corrected with the other purchase. I did a short run through the mountains the night I got the new tires put on and they are awesome. Only other supporting mods are the KW V3s. They handle the rain very well, also.

    Welcome to the club.
     
  8. damn.. I want to sell my 595s n get a pair of 598s lol... very tempting..

    How do they stack up against one another?


    I'd love to read a comparison between the 595's and 650's.

    Also, I think I'll get a headphone amp next month as well, any suggestions?

    I was looking at this one:

    Amazon.com: ART HeadAmp4 Four Channel Headphone Amplifier: Electronics@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/419Zh6YhnRL.@@AMEPARAM@@419Zh6YhnRL

    Also considering this:

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/Valve-Class-Tube...590?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a0d7ac326

    although I dunno how quality these chinese products are...


    edit: lol guess we'll find out, I put a bid down on one of the above V2 amps after reading some head-fi reviews. If I can net it for under 30 dollars I'll try it out without buyers remorse.

    The difference between a 580 and 595 are drastic but the difference between the 580 and 650 are more subtle.

    I'm not too sure how good that amp is but a lot of great amps and DACs are from China so don't let the fact that it's made in China discourage you.
     
  13. fuuuuuuuuuuuuu i wanted to cop an HD 5 series soon, but i HAD to get a fucking textbook for the same cost instead..........

    school can gtfo

    ^ post pics if you get them, i'd like to see some different angle shots. I've noticed sennheiser's official pictures aren't great with scale; their headphones tend to look alot larger in their photos than they actually are

    $150 is pretty cheap for a good set of headphones. Though I'm sure they are better then those Dr. Dre ones for sure.
