I'd love to say this story is making more sense.

Gotta admire mom hydrating Africa 3 water bottles at a time.

Forgot the jello mix

Chord Alto Pro, new headphone amp from Chord. Features tech from their Ultima series amps scaled down for headphones. 4 HP out, speaker taps on rear for 50W and 1U rack mount size. Price is around $3k when converted to USD. Was a solid sounding amp that is unfortunately not available for us to sell, Chord sells Pro stuff direct so not available through dealers. Though maybe a consumer ver one day

Please make a thread, this is interesting stuff that ought not be buried. Was curious about the new 490s, thanks!

Would love to have theatre like experience with my headphone for movies. I wish them all d best.

Scammers took like a metal rod and cut it to a point and then stuck it in a bottle cap. Parents are all good, seemed like it might have just scammers trying to hustle them

WTF? I thought this could only happen in China... (Had it once, on highway, yep)

death penalty

did it seem like it was more technical issues vs "just that bad"?

Without Grell there is nothing.

I would say the technical issues were pretty embarrassing for a premium audio company. But there was that slight glimmer of hope that with their push on Head-Fi of the livestream there might have been something more than just more wireless products. But guess I need to temper expectations for Senn.

@gixxerwimp ”cracked up”…clever

Just goes to show: don't use a system like that as a portable, especially when jogging!

Anyway, nothing that a bit of Araldite won't fix :). Soon be back on the road.

All classic sculpture is missing pieces. :P

Awesome, thanks for sharing impressions- was wondering about the new UE, the Sony, and the Audeze! Cheers

Great summaries. TY. The U4s the first kilobuck plus IEM I've been interested in a long while. How's the cohesion between the hybrid drivers? Hard for me to come around to that part of it.. cause hybrids have and still mostly suck.

Honestly it was pretty great cohesion in my opinion. 64 Audio really hit the nail on the head when it comes to hybrids.

The trombone gets its own driver!

Real talk: Balanced Armatures, no matter how many you use, will still be balanced armatures.

Dud you get another f**k pillow?

We booked our first overseas holiday in over 3 years, N. Italy in March. Will be totally different traveling with a 1yo ...

Because nature is unkind

Hope you recover soon. Humans tend to see Nature as fragile (and it is in many ways), but they should see themselves as even more so. We all should tread carefully and with respect.

A swift kick to the nuts will fix this

The customer is always wrong.

No signature requirement for such a high value item is ridic.

Apple takes care of its customer. I hope they send new one to you asap or better collect it from their store.

Well good news, neighbor a block over ran my doorbell at 10pm, seems like it might have been misdelivered. But seems like everything is all good now and the mystery has been solved

That's a BRZ right? They sure have updated the front end since it was introduced. I want one of those so bad! In stick shift.

It's a WRX. Nice ride!

Yeah its the 2022 WRX GT edition, only comes in automatic strangely enough. Would have loved a manual and the STI but they killed the STI until the WRX goes electric. Excited to ride around in it!

Took me days to recover. Hope to see you again in September.

Hug the pillows for me.

I let the quantum mechanics go home before I start listening to music. But they don't get to leave before clearing up their damned electron haze.

ps... What a heap of utter crap bullshit that site is!

I can only imagine how confused I might look if it actually made a difference

The text on their site looks like nonsense. There is a special rhythm built into it: you will be hypnotised by reading it, you will hear a difference!

Welding goggles afford some protection, but are not guaranteed to be fully safe.

Looks like, customer is in TX and he said this to my Canadian coworker that was helping him out on this. Looks like he doesn't want anymore help then

its like a USA Day but we have to fight a bull moose to the death before breakfast and then we drink a 12 pack of molson with said breakfast (smoking a pack of darts is optional.)

That's pretty f'ing hilarious.

Customer might be a born-again ex smoker, going through that stage of hypersensitivity where if you even show something a cigarette it will "stink." It's a bad stage, for self and others. Been there, done that.

Or customer might just be an idiot. Or both.

I picked up a second-hand HD800 a few years ago that had a godawful smell of acrid, stale sweat; thank god for replacement pads and headband cushion. I'd have preferred a smoker's stink.

So got it in, to my nose familiar with the smell of cigarettes/weed/cigars I would recognize. Smelling this Clear it smelled but not like any of those. Smelled industrial in a way.

Looked it up and the unit had replaced driver and seems like this was the source of the smell.
