But do you get to see monkey wars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVEhLO2daI4

nah, but I can buy toilet paper

I love the camera markets near Namdaemun.

As far as the buy or not you just have to decide whether to roll the dice or not. I would say the odds are with you that things will go fine but there’s of course a chance that they won’t.

BTW, if you’re in the market for a tripod Markins is a great Korean brand of ball heads that is readily available for a steal on the used market there.

M9 also slightly less warm in the treble, but very similar fr overall. I think deep bass and treble are the main improvements of the 9 as well, better low end definition, and then a moderate improvement across the board in clarity and detail vs the 7. The 7 really is an incredible value imo

@SoupRKnowva and @netforce I might have found the next IEM to try out. M9 sounds like what I like nowadays: Neutral with little warm. Thanks! Tell me more stuff that didn't sound like shit to you.

M9 will almost certainly be the next IEM I get. Would've got it earlier if not for the FDX.. but I briefly heard it some time back and totally LOVED it. @SoupRKnowva nailed it.. doesn't wow you.. but, man, it just sounds RIGHT. They scale nicely, too. Unfucked BA treble FTW!

congrats dude!

Congrats man! Once you get settled in let me know. We can meet up and talk about Kpop.

Congrats indeed!! I hope it actually turns into a career for you (if that is what you want),

Even with the filters, they're not forgiving of harsh sources. Nonetheless my faves, even from my phone.

I’ll be back mid April @famish99

@famish99 keep your booty calls to yourself, please

I mean I wasn't floored with them but it was a friend's pair. I can ask him if he wants to sell but its iffy cuz he likes them.

Did you find a pair? $235 https://www.head-fi.org/threads/wts-usa-nc-h-jvc-x-drop-fdx1-w-paypal.922696/

I saw those, alas, it’s too late for me to able to purchase now. Thanks though

The Trio was no good, a pretty disjointed mess, the fourte was even worse. The A6 was nice tonally, but nothing special technically. The A12t on the other hand was pretty incredible, though over priced at 2k

U12t is currently my favorite multi-BA IEM. I really like the U18t too, but it can be a little bright. Fourte has a mini-headphone like presentation, but I hate its signature. I haven’t tried the Trio.

Haha yeah, it took a lot of willpower to spread it out over Friday through Sunday

I'm on episode 5 now. They clearly extended the budget a bit, and it looks like they shot a lot of the season in Iceland or somewhere similar.

As it turns out, it was about an hour and a half north of Toronto in the Canadian tundra

That's rather generous of her. Haha, the fact that I'm quite dismissive of her current album aside, she does seem to be relatively less full of herself than many other artists, which is always nice to see. Glad your school has the opportunity for more serious sound work! ;)

Just shake it off, wait for next album.

Skip Taylor, give Carly Rae a listen. Not joking, if you are going to be pretentious as a Pop artist go the full 10CC or Queen. Do not advertise your drama as interesting content. And if you advertise your drama as interesting content, tell a good story. She used to be a good story teller...

Rather, encourage them to use a Carrier Battle Group (insured UPS/FedEx/DHL etc)

thanks for the info @CEE TEE, ive been debating them, I hesitated last night cause the measurements make it look like it has an upper midsized depression, which is what turned me off to the Elegia last week, but it does seem to more of a gradual roll in that area, rather than a localized depression on the Elegia, so maybe I wouldn't mind as much.

I also don't know how the FR compares to my current DT 770 32 Pros

Solderdude has 1770 vs 770 graph here: https://diyaudioheaven.wordpress.com/headphones/measurements/brands-a-i/dt-1770-pro/

Maybe you can see those relative differences and/or find some Amiron Home vs. 770 impressions and triangulate. I had time for a very brief listen last night and they are still warm/bassy. Don't let me scare you off with the words "slightly more linear". Slightly smoother might be better!

Maybe the FR isn't accurate or there's actually a peak within the sibilance? Sounds more likely to me.

I will admit to not being a lvl 83 eq wizard

Looking at the CSDs, it looks like there's some ringing at just above 3k and a less severe one at around 4.5k.

@imackler initial impressions only are that its a relatively unfucked closed can, with an upper mid depression that I dont love

Favorite Scotch? I'm an Islay fan so I tend to drink Aardbeg or Tallisker.

I haven’t actually drank that much scotch, but my favorite bourbon is JP Trodden from Woodinville Washington

I was hitting refresh over and over leading up to 8am PT.

You probably already know this, but you can also buy them direct from Sennheiser with free shipping for about $11: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/accessories--hd-650--cable

I I did not know that, but @dubharmonic has stepped up to help me out. The generosity of SBAF never ceases to amaze me. Plus, better to reuse than buy something new if someone else isn’t using their gear :)

I need this, cause I wanted to plug some headphones into my new digital piano to play, and realized I didn't bring a single "normal" headphone cable with me to Texas, only balanced ones made the trip haha

Whatever the choice, I'd get some hands-on time if at all possible, make sure you like the feel of playing it. Cost of the higher-end models is rough, though; managed to snag mine at a hefty discount and it was still several thousand dollars... the price of realism, I suppose.

FWIW, I had many piano players tell me they preferred Yamaha due to the action and sound.

I ended up snagging the Roland fp-90, gonna assemble it when I get home tonight. Excited to jump back in this weekend

Can't watch it ATM but when I looked into it about 3 yrs ago people who sleep less than 7 and more than 9 a night had shorter life spans per Mayo Clinic w/ their recommended amount being 7-8 hours.

(For adults that is) I'm interested to hear the talk when I get a chance though.

@SoupRKnowva Haha yeah i'm the same, people complain less about their health to me now. I wonder why hehe...

Micro LED and emissive quantum dot, both sample and hold. I think the last future tv tech that wasn't was SED? it was supposed to replace plasma, but then it died. I think the problem is brightness, its hard to get without sample and hold.

That reminds me, I have to track down a CRT TV to play a few Point Blank/Gun Bullet games I still have stashed in a cupboard. The arcade version with actual recoiling pistols was one of my all time favorite multiplayer games right up there with Daytoma USA 8 player, and Gauntlet.

Used to sell those. My back hurts for you. Great for laserdiscs and vintage game systems though.

Have only heard the single released a bit ago on iTunes, pretty good. Shame the mastering is just as shitty as 10,000 Days - http://dr.loudness-war.info/album/view/166324 - but looking forward to listening to the whole album.

I would disagree that the mastering is just as shitty as 10k days. Everything cant be summed up in a single number

If not for the fact that I would miss out on all the other amazing tracks, I could listen to Invincible and Descending on repeat y’all damn day

Real Chernobyl was even more intense than the show... just saying...

Look for another show in 20 years? https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1164125/Russia-nuclear-leak-radiation-Putin-iodine-hazmat

More intense in that it was _real_ rather than a tv show, but the events of the show were pretty highly dramatized in comparison to what actually happened. As you would expect of something meant to entertain
