I’m having a lot of fun with the Focal Elex and the SW51+. Great synergy from those two. The SW is a heck of an amp.

Been really close to pulling the trigger for the Elex as I've read a few good things about how it pairs w/ the SW51+. Would def. appreciate more impressions on the combo @Phantaminum

The SW51+ adds a little more weight to the Elex and doesn’t exacerbates any of the highs. I don’t hear it as bright with my gear. It also gives it nudge into the warmer side but not overwhelmingly warm. Imaging and instrument separation are great. The SW does microdynamics well and the Elex is strong in this area so. For the price it’s hard to beat for a dynamic headphone. Maybe an Asgard 3+Verum One?

Hopefully the system doesn't become a major distraction from your studying :P

Worth a look see.

One of my favorites is "Windows logo key + number" to quick open apps.

Another useful one is Alt + PrtScn, which copies the active window to the clipboard. I use this to throw stuff into Paint all the time

@PTS the librarians are the loud ones here, ironically (lol) and feels like I'm in a daycare with kids screaming and running around on the other side.

Have you looked for any basements in Germany?

I've started renting space.

I ended up enjoying the one with max stuffing as it gives some boost to bass and weight to vocals otherwise it sounded to thin to me.

I use the less-filtered nozzle. I found the max-stuffed one to be a bit dull for my taste. Having the choice is really cool though.

^yep same here. The most stuffed was a bit too relaxed in the top end. Sometimes I like to live on the edge and use the white filter LOL

@Mithrandir41 I'm beginning to think it's just that the shoutbox function (esp when posting directly on someone's profile) is easily mistaken for private conversations by some for whatever reason, given how often this seems to happen. Maybe I'm being too nice but at the same time, shoutbox is pure noise anyway, otherwise I'd be less active on here :P

@Lyander yes, you're being too nice

@DarkStar hey Mr. Rene, Don’t forget to introduce yourself and read the rules stickied on the forum! :)

Use the EQ in app or it's a bust.

What headphone pairing(s) does Sonett 1 work well with for you?

@Gaspasser I haven't had too much time with it, but I like it with the Sony MA900. 3F easily kills the Sonett side by side, but my main rig is currently with @ChaChaRealSmooth haha (Sorry I can't give you a more fleshed out response :( )

There are several sites out there that describe content before you show a movie to your kids!

Korean Parasite? Hah yeah, it's one heck of a trip really. I've yet to rewatch it, but I don't think I'm up for one just yet even though it's been a while since I last saw it :))

The seeing sex scenes with family thing happened with me a few times too many. Cringe.

Weird name for a show... which is the response you were probably after. Sad story though.

@Lyander highly, highly recommended. one of the more unique animes I've watched in a long time. Story starts off with a simple premise and becomes more fascinating each episode.

The simple premise is what made me lose interest, haha. Then again, probably should've given it a chance since I loved A Place Further than the Universe, which also has a pretty simple premise. Alrighty, giving it a shot when I can.

@pure5152 basically everyone gets turned into stone one day and the modern world reverts back to Stone Age/nature. After many many years later, protagonist and few others wake up from it and tries to advance the world back with scientific knowledge. (obviously more to it than this, but didn't want to spoil much)

2 months is a long time. Pace yourself and avoid getting burned out.

Good Luck!

I cannot forgive Sennheiser for discontinuing this headphone. Few headphones convey the low end as well as these. Also quite easy to maintain. Get your spare parts and you are good for a long time...

@Deep Funk Yeah they should make this instead of HD700 and HD820 lol where do you find the spare parts? I do want to get some spare pads and foam inserts.

Thomann for instance. Also directly from Sennheiser. Cables are not difficult but foams and ear pads are very important. Good thing the HD250 II Linear was made for daily use in broadcasting so it is quite durable.

And telling that as I scroll through my news feed this morning, there's not a SINGLE mention of it anywhere.

Yikes. I've had about 40 transactions over there (buy & sell), never had a problem like this; must've gotten bad recently.
Though one time I bought from a guy who didn't ship to me for like two weeks. Saw recently was also an executed member here with a custom warning tag. Ha.

Had a guy offer me a laptop for my Ether once. Someone who asked me if I could hold a $100 AKG listing for a few weeks when he got the money.

A young Chinese-American lowballed me, so I sent him back this video of Russell Peter's stand up "Be a Man" (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-qtrAMK7_Qk). To his credit, he wrote back thanking me for cracking him up.

Meanwhile, at my school people aren't even pretending to study.
