    Which album? Play "Lateralus" in the alternate order a.k.a. "the gift" and your mind will be blown.

  Elex are here. As a low volume listener, I immediately appreciate the dynamics. It prevents volume creep to get a little more umph.

    Despite some timbre issues, I love the things. Best headphones I have ever owned. Still have no faith that they will have no problems long-term though. Hope they prove me wrong.

    I get a little worried about long term viability of anything besides the HDXXX family. The Keith Richards of headphones

    Wonder if Keith has reasonably priced spare parts too. Especially livers.

  I want the next great headphone, but keep grabbing a Sennheiser not because of what it gets right, but because of what it doesn't get wrong

    I have the Focal Elex on the way. It is one of the next greats that I have not heard.

  All of the retunes for DCA/Mr Speaker's (especially the new Aeon RT) have completely gutted the used markets for Aeons.

  The frustration of selling on HF is real. Was just called a bigot for not wanting to ship internationally.....

    You don't want to go through the hassle of filing out customs forms and even though your listing says domestic?
    
    Bigot!

    Plus at the moment, I am trying to stay out of the retail locations as much as possible. USPS will pick up from my house and there is a Fed EX, UPS drop box around the corner.

    I went to drop off a package at UPS yesterday. Thought it would be simple and quick. They had a sign that said 3 customers at a time.
    
    5 people were inside, I had to wait a few mins, one of the employees took off his facemask to take a call.
    
    Little disappointing

  I have had very little time with a newborn, but I am really enjoying the Z7s. So lush and huge sounding.

    I have a prototype 4 driver from
    Inearz. The drivers are setup in a config similar to the Jupiter. The day I tested them, they sounded just right across the board.
