At least 2021 ones come with newer pads (different foam, different surface, different dimension). No idea if they changed internal structures. Maybe not.

Audeze is imo the riskiest choice in buying used. Nobody can confirm with confidence.

Yes I’ve bought some of the new pads and they’re a significant upgrade from the older ones. I’m considering posting about it. Everyone should upgrade.

Perhaps they’re done recycling LCD-3 grills https://cdn.head-fi.org/a/10049488.jpeg

Always just thought it was called "acoustically transparent fabric/cloth" but pantyhose sounds about right.

The fabric/cloth is very thick. Not transparent.

@crenca That is Raising Arizona! One of my favorite movies. I'm now flush with internet bucks, sweet! But I'll still take those Huggies and all the cash you got...

You better just shake hands now! It's not a request...

I'm looking at this one now that starts off talking about a guy named John who's having a 'Monday' kind of Thursday but actually John is a workaholic, so this is good. Later, I *think* it's trying to teach me how to apologize. Words like "PHRASE" and "INTERJECTION" keep showing up in caps. Gaslighting me like an alcoholic stepmom, tryna make me feel like I need to apologize for something. It's great.

@rhythmdevils Language gap - you actually signed up for the headphone pads SUBSCRIPTION

:) I'd honestly like to see him try, as I have only ever done 8 wires into full sized connectors. But with how much business he does, I could completely understand him not having the time to mess around with it.

"wtyk kątowy 3,5mm" should be the right phrase

Thank you @Kashalott ! I can’t find one that is likely to fit the T50rp. But that phrase worked.

My phone autocorrects dog to either dig or fig. At no point in my life have I wanted to discuss the AKC Fig competition or my great weekend dig handling.

no problems with dumbass autocorrects over-emphasizing corporations on Android.

First thing to do with a new phone: teach it obscenities. Saves everybody time in the long run.

Nice, but... Nope. She isn't dragging me away from Joni Mitchell.

I love songs with good lyrics. Music and poetry, hand in hand. And good lyrics often stand alone /as/ poetry.

But I spend a lot of time listening to songs in languages I don't understand at all.

Still waiting on some damn cables. If I knew it would take this long I wouldn’t have bought them but now that I did gotta have that snake oil.

Your damn headphones killed imgur.

That’s power

LMAO I love that getting a Yggdrasil is your first thought upon resuming consciousness and you immediately start pursuing it. Those'r some serious priorities you have, that you can get your brain to even do that at that point.

New Netflix series staring @rhythmdevils:
I Dream of Yiggy

I think we would all watch the shit out of that show!

Whoops... I was reading about how the YH100 has a stronger magnet (supposedly) than YH1 so that's what tipped me towards it. I can tolerate some upper mid push if I can also get some good bass out of it. Might try one of those other ones in addition!

It’s kind of Grado-ish. But not as bad. The decay is still fast with the right mods.

Given your sound preferences you might really like the rich, flat Yamaha sound. Beautiful vocals!

Oh and thanks for the kind words! I worked on those Yamahas for a long time and learned a lot.

I’m skeptical any iem rig could beat this. Well I guess there’s always the wavedream but I think the Gungnir is already maxing out the resolving potential of BA drivers.

Doh! Loki +. My rig is good enough. My rig is good enough. My rig is good enough.

At SBAF, we are all about first-hand experiences. Try it out on your main hard drive and report back ;-)

HD and SSD often have some magnetic shielding. Large driver orthos probably can’t generate a strong enough field to properly erase a drive. If you really want to wipe a hard drive on the cheap, consider getting a watch demagnetizer.

The magnets /inside/ an hdd are amazingly strong.

My wife is meeting a friend, at her work, next week, first time since covid. That friend keeps my off-site backup hdd. I was going to ask her to do a disk swap at the same time. Then I remembered that the friend works in the x-ray department.

C1's color science is a bit better than Adobe's for my taste, Adobe's cross platform sync and convenience for bulk editing is still unmatched. I use both, but I can justify it as a work expense. C1 is also headed to a subscription model. As is everyone. f**k micro transactions - they really stink. Yay capitalism?

I use Adobe Audition. $264/yr with taxes. For ten year's use that is $2640. I don't need all the updates. So I can commiserate about hating the subscription model. I'm considering cancelling this year and using only Cubase and CEP2, which I already have.

GIMP really is very good these days.

I love Fleetwood Mac! Got to see them live in Oakland, CA. August 1975. Just after the album Fleetwood Mac came out. It was the first tour with Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Fantastic show.

@rhythmdevils - thank you, that really was an epic solo. And what a great piece of music!

The Chain was used as the music to the BBC's F1 motor racing TV show back in the day, which meant it was almost ruined from being overplayed. Three decades' distance, thankfully, has overcome that.

They will all go on loaner tours in pairs and Soranik is offering all of SBAF a 20% discount.

Jizzing that review

"shvonce" I did not know. But when @rtaylor76 mentioned "Hammond," I thought he was talking about his organ.

The sexual instrument or the musical instrument?

Whatever you make music with!

Is the LCD-2 Classic lighter because of less magnets? I thought it was because of the plastic enclosure which I much prefer to wood.

You’re still using a neck brace? I had my neck surgically reinforced with titanium rods.
