I've never really understood the goal of having an amp... I get that it amplify the sound but... explain to me!
Well, it also would depend on the headphones you would be using. If you're amping the Apple earbuds then it's not going to do anything really because they aren't good in the first place. But with good headphones (I use Westone 4Rs as my main set, which is an extreme example), an amp will not only amplify the sound, but will also improve areas where the headphones lack.
For example, the Westone 4R uses 4 drivers, 2 woofers, 1 mid, and 1 high. The two woofers provide very fast, detailed and accurate bass since they are smaller, but they don't have as much bass depth and punch as a dynamic driver, or a triple driver headphone. So with the amp, it helps bring out the bass and adjusts the output of certain areas of the music. It also helps tone the mids without killing any of the highs, but I won't get too far into that part
It just makes listening to music just that more enjoyable. Especially with lossless files.
Was going to settle for whatever cheapo keyboard, but I just changed up my home set up and thought why not? cherry browns were driving me insane while my bf types away at night. Picked up a wireless illuminated k800. Pretty cool based on the reviews.
Also picked up an mx performance mouse to replace my wired copperhead.

hahaha sorry. I did right after i posted and forgot to edit it! thank you though!
I hadn't heard of them either, but it looks like they have a lot of cool things.
That one is kind of wired. You can use the Performance MX while it's charging through the USB charging cable. No, it's not really wired, but you can actually use it while after the battery dies, which is an improvement over the MX Revolution.
I have used the Performance MX before, and I love it. I'm waiting on the Revolution MX to die so I can replace it with the Performance. I also have the wired illuminated keyboard on my gaming PC, and it is great.
Not really a purchase, because this is a device like a refurbished one.
After 3 broken iPhone's 4 (black) Apple sent me a brand new 4s in white!
That is pretty cool, because I have a contract for approx. 1,5 years and the contract expires in summer.
I'm really excited about Apple service! *thumbsup*

In my opinion there is no better sport to watch live than professional hockey. And to the mix that you are right on the glass, you are one good friend!
Aprilaire Model 700 Automatic Whole-house Powered Humidifier with Digital Control
Took me two trips to Home Depot and several hours to install. My furnace was too close to the wall. Had to move things around a little.
Made a huge difference in the house within a couple of hours after installing.

128gb Crucial SSD
Optibay type thing.
Going for the SSD+HDD setup on my MBP.
8gb upgrade for MBP
very nice! i'm considering upgrading RAM with the potential to do the sad/hdd combo in a year or two, depending on post-grad plans. the RAM upgrade is a must based on how heavy i use my MBP lately...
I can't wait to go. First time sitting on the glass. The seller shipped his business card with the tickets, I'll be calling him in the future to buy more.
StubHub fees and shipping is ridiculous. I literally paid a FedEx driver $16.95 to deliver the tickets to my house. To where I could of drove those 30 miles myself and picked them up.
Oh, well (lol). Should be a good time
I've been looking for some contacts for myself and came across your reply.. These two sites visiondirect.com and lensworld.com look extremely identical but with different prices on their products.
