    I still have the Alessandro Music MS-1 that I bought ages ago. But there's a reason it's not on my SBAF headphone listing. lol.

    Speaking of Alessandro, I am quite surprised that their grado-based modding headphones are still in production even now. http://alessandro-products.com/headphones-2/

  Enjoyed the new TSwift album. Felt like the last two were just trying to outdo 1989, whilst this was a change of pace.

    The mix and production is great, mastering is kinda meh, but its not too bad overall. Listening to necrophagist now to offset my guilty pleasure session lol.

    Price of fame and being a good product, people will want to rip it off. Can't say I'm surprised, but this is honestly sad for anyone who might've gotten ripped off.
    
    Thing is they're apparently not entirely horrible (pending input from trusted ears), so might have been a good buy on their own merits if they didn't steal patented designs.

    "I contacted the person who sold me the Andro and he confirmed that it was an OEM"
    
    CFA OEM? Reading through that reddit thread and that Andro for $500 SG is super shady. If the price is too low, its too good to be true.

    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.

    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.

    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...
