REVIEW: Grado Prestige SR60 Headphones
After receiving a new pair of these headphones on Warranty I decided that its long time to give my opinion of these Headphones.
Basically through wear and tear the cable or connector became damaged, then I sent it my local distributor (In Switzerland only pcp.ch stocks them) after a few days a new pair of headphones where sent. Great service from this manufacturer.
The audio quality is also great, I have tried many different headphones from Apple, Sony to Logitec but they where disappointing in comparison. I can highly recommend these headphones even at the slightly higher Price of over 100 USD.
For people looking at good sound and do not mind the size (not exactly in-ear) this is a good way, there will be differences in sound quality due to how well your device performs, see below:
iPod is very good
Apple iMac is good
PC with high defintion is excellent (over green headphone output with 2.5cm audio jack)
HOW-TO: Upgrade 20″ iMac from 10.4 Tiger to Leopard 10.5
HOW-TO: Upgrade 20″ iMac from 10.4 Tiger to Leopard 10.5
Just giving my experiences on the upgrade to the new MAC OS 10.5 or Leopard, originally I was hesitant as there where few features I needed but now I am surprised at the results:
Faster GUI performance, it feels at least faster than 10.4
Previews of files on the Desktop & Finder, examples are a mini Picture for Images/Pictures, 1st pages mini versions and a preview of Document files.
Networking is much faster. Samba/file networking is much more responsive. Xtorrent download rates have increased from 10-80 kB/s to over 350-500, see below.
Xtorrent does not crash as much anymore, I am using that there is file corruption on some files being downloaded causing this.
Samba networking works better, “Connect as” is clear and gives you a choice of shares and permissions.
The upgrade
Nothing much to say here just put in the DVD while your logged in and then press restart, after around 0.5-2 hours your MAC will prompt to reboot, and there is your new Leopard system.
