Really sucks when sellers are so selfish/impatient. Had a buy fall thru recently. I had emailed the seller to confirm the PayPal account to send the money. Seller replied while I was outside doing yardwork. 4 hrs later he emailed me again: "Sorry, you were too slow. Sold to somebody else."

Guys, that sucks. I could never deal with that. Don't pee on my head and tell me it's raining. I hate those hypotheticals that you don't know are hypothetical.

The SW51+ is the easiest and hardest to sell, though. Easy because they are the hype. Hard because the hype is real. They're charming, super-solid, and sound fantastic. I could never sell mine. It's a gem, gifted from the universe. Can't betray it.

I placed an order the other day. Got more into headphone listening again lately but never was totally satisfied with the Clear and Lyr3 paring.

Now with widgets especially, they’re a lot closer. Still prefer Android for many things, but don’t want to be on Google’s spy phones any more.

Yeah I switched to an iPhone 12 Mini in November, first time away from Android. A couple minor nits (double-click button brings up pay not camera). Photos over-sharpened (Android does a lot better IMO).

A lot of the gestures, Google copied Apple.

I don't miss my Pixel.

I have to learn to stop taking screenshots. The side buttons line up perfectly with my thumb and fingers and I keep accidentally screenshotting.

Get the cable used by Empire Ears for the Odin. It only costs $1300 US. Joking aside, the Campfire Audio cables are excellent and far more reasonably priced.

Looking for ZMF cable, so Campfire won't work. You're right though, decent prices can be had there

Bandcamp has the 2019 anniversary edition of "Hymn to the Immoral Wind" and it's in 24/96. It's a good remaster. Bandcamp also has a special Christmas release "Scarlet Holliday" from MONO that is only available on Bandcamp. It's good too. It's in 24/44.1.

I do like the 2019 remaster. But a word of warning. It does increase the clarity which also increases the awareness of the treble distortions present in the recording. The remaster has more clarity and drive, but also more awareness of treble nasties that are present in the original recording.

If you have a system with treble emphasis this remaster could be too much. If you have a HeadAmp GS-X and HD800 may God have mercy on your ears. I have a Liquid Fire, Gungnir MB A1, and LCD-2 and the treble and increased clarity works out for the better. I do prefer the remaster, but I understand why some people would not.

I saw that he wasn't the original owner. But if he bought it second-hand more than a couple years ago, it would still be the older version. I guess you probably already asked him that.

Ahh, I see what you’re saying. If this guy has had it over 2 years, then unlikely the new version, good point!
