Rooh means Soul and hence the sound system to bring soul to music

I'm going to have to check that out!

That sounds like an all-around fantastic dining experience!

Pretty much at the limits of my hearing. Basically kills any transport nervosa.

I'm currently trialling Roon and I find it handy for comparing transports since you can group outputs.

I thought so, what course are you taking. Working on MBA?

This is a short executive course focusing on small business growth and minority entrepreneurship. Got my MBA several years ago, just adding to the toolbox at this point.

Part of a much needed effort in Chicago to encourage entrepreneurship in the less supported neighborhoods.

It gets released when we have cards.

Hopefully this means their transport is getting close too....

Hmmmmm. Fuck.

Do you use the L12 for music or HT? It's on my shortlist for both. Apparently pairs well with my Klipsch Heresy speakers.

My system does double duty, but leans more towards HT. I am a fairly low volume listener for both and the L12 has been more than I could have hoped for (coming from cheapo Yamaha and Energy subs).

Nicely controlled for music, gives me some very satisfying rumble for movies (the really low stuff you feel more than hear). Plus it is about as small as you can get for a 12" Won't hit you in the chest like a larger sub, but I don't think you get one thinking it will.

These are pretty good! Not the last word in sound quality or noise cancelling, but they are great for the price. Cancelled out the engine noise just about completely, but didn't have enough passive isolation to block voices.

Definitely good enough to replace everything I have outside of my old Shures that my GF likes to borrow for travel.

Feel bad for the Ghost in the Shell franchise. The first movie and Stand Alone Complex was the apex and its been so downhill from there. The live action movie was pretty awful and this trailer doesn't instill a lot of confidence.

@netforce 2nd GIG wasn't too bad, I'd say it trades blows with the first series, but Arise was pretty bland, didn't even try finishing it. Animation quality here actually reminds me of the absolutely tepid Cyborg009 series (also on Netflix) I watched a while back.

What the fuck.

I'm happy that they kept the directors and voice actors from GITS:SAC, but that animation quality.

Would love to hear some impressions

I on the other hand had completely forgotten about the Millett despite planning on getting one before I splurged on headphones, haha. Awesome, glad it's doing a lot for ya! Agree that obscure gems are the best fun.

It was do popular it exhausted the world supply for those tubes it used.

There was a good vibe on DIY amp. Some diy units on HF were god damn good. Now, seem very few people do that :(

That is what we do though...chase gear. I wouldn’t sweat it though. Seems like your in the same boat as @Skyline having Gungnir Multibit. He was advised to hold on and cancel FS though.
Unison is coming soon enough. Hell they might release Gungnir 2 and Yggdrasil 2 and everyone will be in the same boat.

Sounds like you have a great setup, just focus on the music and let everything work itself out. Grab a beer and listen to the new Tool album. Better yet go hit up the Map Room for me!

We can start a Gungir nervosa support group :P

scraches and dents on a fridge don't matter --- IF one gets the large discount on the ex-diplay model. If not, they matter a lot.

Since I knew some of you were concerned, the vendor came through and replaced the bins that were cracked and the door that was scuffed on my fridge. Now to sort out my nervosa about DACs.

Easy, DACs make no difference as long as they measure well. Get an ODAC, sell off the other shiz and use the funds for your trip ;)

Gear is easy to geek over, I'm weak to that too, but as long as I can listen to my crappy library and have a blast elsewhere, life's fucking awesome. All the best, dude.

Cool? Or cold? How about clinical?

Cool = below room temp water, but not super cold
Bright = Chew minty gum and try to drink ice cold water after

At its best, it sounds like Glenn Gould: somewhat staccato, very little to no sustain pedal. PMx2 especially; ER4S, regardless of filter.

Best bet is to trim the inner plastics, it's too thick to fit in the holes.

Sennheiser did have a guide to getting them on. I can't find the pic in my folders, but you put the pads on the headphone as much as you can & then place one side of the headphone w/earpads facing down on a desk & then you apply even pressure from the back.

Just don't apply pressure to the thin metal parts from the back.

One went on with only minor frustration, it took a serious amount of pressure against the desk to get the other on. Looks like the tolerances weren't great. I feel like I just smashed half the life out of them.

My *theory* is that they are making these parts for the HD800S now, and maybe the design is only 99.9% compatible. That 0.1% with the pads causes grief.

Have 2 Echos, a Dot connected to a Turbo X, a Show 5 connected to the Festival, and a 3rd gen Dot creating a pretty seamless envelope of pleasant sound throughout the place now. No single point of sound blasting to fill it up.

Impatiently awaiting the Stadium

I have a Festival and Turbo X as well. The Festival is less impressive because of its size. It can really put out the volume, but the bass is a bit boomy. The Turbo X has a lot of bass rolloff but is pretty cool because of how it sounds in relation to the size.

In complete agreement :-D
