M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 Powered Speakers2008-11-19
Excellent speakers for my PC. The AV cord was kind of short, so I had to buy a longer cord. Otherwise very happy with the sound quality and the look of these high end PC speakers. I love that you can plug in your Ipod directly to the speakers.
Excellent Sound2008-11-16
I should qualify my comments by admitting that I am definitely not an audiophile. But I think my ear is good enough to appreciate that these little speakers put out some very clear sound where you hear what you're supposed to hear the way the artists meant for you to hear it. The only thing they lack is the bass response I wish they had. If a subwoofer as good as these speakers were part of the package, I'd be very happy indeed. As it is, I'm happy enough. And I should add that a friend of mine who IS very knowledgeable about sound systems and has an audiophile's ear was extremely impressed with these speakers when he came to visit and listened to a variety of music through them recently. He thought that they delivered superbly "accurate" sound. In fact, he raved about it. And that's high praise from someone with expertise who is very sparing in his praise.
Bose Killer. Amazing Sound2008-11-15
I am an audiophile. I recently purchased the Ultimate Ears super.fi.5 pro headphones (the 10's were just out of my price range) for my zune and the av40s for my computer. The av40 speakers are fantastic. I am currently listening to Andrew Bird's live at Austin City Limits while I write this and it sounds better than ever before. Just like the UE headphones, these M-Audio speakers let you hear things in your music that you will not hear with bose.

My Girlfriend actually sold her bose computer speakers on C.list and bought these ones as well.
M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 Powered Speakers2008-11-04
I purchased a pair of M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 Powered Speakers last week and I am not overly impressed. The sound is ok but you cannot use a lot of bass without getting an annoying hum. They are not as good as my Bose PC speakers, that's for sure.
Pops and snaps2008-10-28
I'm using these with a Macbook and get a variety of pops and snaps through the speakers from such things as switching on or off a small incandescent light on my table or the washing machine starting or stopping downstairs. I have it plugged into an APC filter/BBU so I would not expect any interference through the AC line. These replaced an old speaker set with subwoofer that came from Dell years ago - they did not have this problem.

Camera basics: shutter-speed, aperture and ISO
In this article, I’ll introduce you to the basic elements that you can use to control exposure in your shooting. If you have a digital SLR, there will be a way to set all of these controls on your camera, but since they differ between manufacturers and models, you’ll need to refer to your camera’s manual to find out exactly how to change them. All cameras, whether an ancient film camera, or a more modern digital, work in pretty much the same way. Photographs are taken by letting light fall onto a light-sensitive medium, which records the image. Traditionally, this has been film, but more recently, it tends to be a digital sensor. The more light that falls onto the film or sensor, the lighter the image. Put simply, a camera consists of a light-tight box that stores a light-sensitive device (either a film or a digital sensor), a lens that magnifies and focuses the image onto that light-sensitive device through a hole in the box (called the aperture) , and a shutter that opens ...
