Also *no bullshit.* We can agree to disagree on stuff. Call gear out for being shit, or not to our preference. Its just a nice place to be :) No I'm not drunk or high. Just feeling appreciative :)

Well, not being drunk is your problem. You should get on that... :)

Don't go nuts with the system for them. A Saga > Vidar off your DAVE would be fine and sound quite good.

Might pick up an older Adcom from craigslist if I can find one for cheap. One of the old Nelson Pass designed ones. They seem to go for $150-$200ish, so that would be great for now until I can save up again.

The world is going to hell and we're stuck with the idiots. "Idiot" in the classic sense in that they only give a crap about themselves.

Why Trump? They're taking fire from Iceland!

Is it me, or is he saying "mofset" instead of "mosfet"?

Edit: it starts around 1:14 and he says it several times

Did philharmonic audio stop doing business?

It appears the owner, whom I gather is called Dennis, is ill. I hope he gets better soon. http://www.philharmonicaudio.com/order.html

I've got a lot to learn about photography. Only have my iPhone cam for now, so I'll keep working on it :) Thanks for the feedback

Try the Halide app for IOS. I find that it takes better photos than the stock app and it shoots in RAW. RAW allows you to do post-shoot processing.

The Halide app also has a histogram so you can adjust apperature/exposure before snapping the pic.

Feel free to DM if you'd like to know more. I use Halide for my IG feed and routinely post without IG filters.

Whilst it may seem a bit ass-backwards, this is good stuff. I didn't know that I liked "Lo-Fi Beats" but it turns out I've been listening to them for years. Highly recommended if you get a chance. Very J-Dilla like.

I have a 500+ hour Spotify playlist just of stuff like this. Generally it's reasonably well-produced, the 'lo-fi' aspect of it is simply a matter of creative mixing choices. Still plenty of texture and dynamics to be rendered. 'Lo-fi' textures can be really satisfying when rendered by 'hi-fi' gear. This is why I love totally slammed, saturated cassettes on an HE6. Very visceral...

Nujabes. Thank me later.

@westermac afaik continuity is for output stage. So nexus gain must be sth different. But quite likely it contains continuity thing, too.

@Ash1412 I hope the higher bias point you raised is correct.

That's what I wish the 4 had been in the first place

Oh god........

Boy, dis gonna b good !

'tis the season. Merry Christmas.

Headphonelounge has cheap cables & a super fast build time.
He can order Eidolic connectors if he doesn't have them in stock.

I picked up an LQI cable for my 5LE when I couldn’t get through to Impact... a little higher priced but great flexibility and feel, no noise. Not sure on connectors though.

Impact Audio is out of business? I’m sad to hear that. My Andromeda cable is from them and it’s been great.

Competing with mrS and audeze for official and silent revisions I see.

Wait, what? I taught the abyss phi was based on what they learned from the Diana development.

If Abyss ever releases a headphone not designed for people with square heads that costs less than $2k then color me intrigued

"Also to clear up confusion on the naming/drivers, the current Diana uses the same tech as the AB-1266 Phi, but it's not the exact same driver, different materials, etc. This new Diana Phi has the same drivers as in the AB-1266 Phi CC, sans a few millimeters to make it fit."

Why? Just... why?

You think it's hard now, just wait until the V2 versions come out in 4 months... Haha

Being a Hifiman dealer is hard lol

waiting for valued impressions of this classic can, with a new headband.

Sadly I don't have the original HE6 here, so I won't be able to offer any comments on how they compare sonically. Be they the exact same, or different :(

Make sure to find out how many screws it has.

out of curiosity, what other DACs have you tried?

Tried:too many to list Owned:Mojo, Concero HD, Perfectwave MK2, iDSD BL, Aqua La Voce S2, hmmmm I think thats it.

oh Geek out V2 and 2A

Thats a lot of coin for an upsampler. However, I'd love to hear it, and the difference it supposedly makes to the DAVE or H2 (or HTT2 this fall.) Look cool too, IMO.

The name is crappy, I like the aesthetic, holy fucknuggets that pricetag. I am curious how it'd affect the sound of their DACs, but at the same time am thankful that I'll likely never be in a position to consider one.

Tried the Blu2 once with a Dave. Improves the resolution and transparency, but also increases the upper treble. Notes feel more decompressed. But I’d rather buy an expensive tube amp for that money.
