Damn. Look what just arrived from ZMF for review. I've been waiting 5 years to hear some of Zachs creations! https://i.imgur.com/35uV2Ns.jpg
That Verite is pure evil. I've only heard it a couple of times & I can't stop thinking about it....enjoy your time with it, looking forward to your review!
Funny and a classic song. Great recording too. Worth a listen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5W-xtHYXE7A
If you like electronica, but want something a bit different, check this out. Fire, and well done.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jebaToYmPtM
Also has a bit of a Grimes vibe to it. Really interesting stuff. Her other albums are great as well :)
Picking up a Classe SSP-75. $330USD. PCM1702 DAC/Preamp/HT Receiver thingy. The budget set up adventure continues! Will be awesome to hear!!
Turns out, the dude selling it is a huge dick. Can't be bothered. Will figure out another solution. Damn shame.
Please note. *NOT* begging. Just putting this out there. Anyone have a desktop DAC they aren't in need of currently in the SBAF fam?
replied to your PM thanks man :) Hoping to borrow something a bit more "desktopy" if that makes sense. With that being said, if that doesn't work out, I will defo give you a shout. Thank you again for the extremely kind offer.
This forum is so great. *Tons* of impressions. Not much useless noise. Feelsgoodman. Thanks for being awesome guys!
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 :)
Sound I am getting with the BMR’s, HT Receiver, free $5 dollar cables, 3.5mm to RCA cable is awesome. I get why you guys like speakers now.
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.
lol two videos. Fangs jimmies must have been thoroughly rustled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDwEbjOFGe8
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.
Is it me, or is he saying "mofset" instead of "mosfet"? Edit: it starts around 1:14 and he says it several times
Trying to buy BMR Philharmonitors seems to be impossible, unless you get really lucky on the used market. Damn.
It appears the owner, whom I gather is called Dennis, is ill. I hope he gets better soon. http://www.philharmonicaudio.com/order.html
Started a little website for headphones. Hope to slowly improve it. Any feedback would be awesome! www.headphonesnstuff.blog
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...
@westermac afaik continuity is for output stage. So nexus gain must be sth different. But quite likely it contains continuity thing, too.

Bill Ward on this was so ahead of his time. 100% worth the 5 minutes to watch this :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3b6SGoN6dA

Audeze LCD-..24? Announcement soon supposedly. Mix of the tuning of the 2 but diaphragm of the 4 supposedly. Interesting.
Merry Christmas SBAF. I hope your day is filled with warmth and family and friends ! https://i.imgur.com/Fwi6DX3.png
Now that Impact Audio seems to be done, any suggestions for quality affordable cables, using Eidolic connectors?
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.
