Yup, I've got one and ebay is definitely the way to go. It will take about 7-9 business days to arive. Make sure you are using a TRUE RMS meter though; otherwise your readings wont be accurate. If you don't have one already, then prepare to shell out another $80-100 for one (and make sure it...

Can it rip cda to VBR mp3's?

Well, it looks like I misread my HU's owners manual. It does not specifically state that VBR mp3's cannot be played, so i will have to give that a try. The only problem is that WMP doesn't have an option to encode mp3's using VBR. Nero sucks at finding the track titles for the disks I encode...

Thanks, but I had no success. mdillion, it's looking more and more like i'll have to do that. There will however be a very noticable difference in disk space if I switch to MP3. My deck can play WMA's using VBR, but it can only play MP3's that use CBR. The VBR wma's have a smaller file...

Well, my music collection is already encoded as WMA, and the HU is the only thing that makes these popping noises, so its a convenience/time issue at the moment. I have tried encoding the wma's at different qualities and switching from CBR to VBR, but none of that solved the problem. I have...

I've tried using Dynex, Office Depot, Memorex, and Verbatim brand disks. I have also tried recording at speeds ranging from 4x all the way to 52x. I even switched to a different CD burner. I have also tried the disk on other Pioneer decks and the problem still occurs on the same files at the...

I am taking store bought CD's and encoding them as WMA files onto my hard drive. My entire CD collection is already encoded in this format, so I am trying to avoid having to re-encode over 2000 songs to MP3. If I cannot solve this problem, they yes - that will have to be my last resort. To...

My problem can be found here: http://club.cdfreaks.com/f3/wma-disk-pops-cracks-238389/ I will be more than happy to provide more details, and if any of you can offer a solution, it would be very much appreciated.

Well, Lee isn't making any updates. The server appears to be crashing on its own, but Lee is working to fix the problem for us.

do you have a link to one of these "beauty plates"?

With it happening multiple times like this, it makes me think that Lee must be making some updates or changes to the software/servers.

The SLA feature is designed to help you match the volume levels of the CD source to your Radio source.... that is all. It is not a bass adjustment because all frequencies are affected equally. By increasing the SLA, you are making the CD volume louder, and by decreasing it you are making the...

And it looks like CAF is down again...

Well the problem here is that the gain alone doesn't actually determine how much power the amp is producing. Having the gain turned up to 50% doesn't mean that your amp is only capable of producing 50% of its RMS value. It is strictly an input sensitivity device that allows you to match your...
