Did you pee?

last night I viidly dreamed I watched a passenger jet fall from the sky and crash near my house, probably because we purchased plane tickets yesterday for my daughters to go visit their grandparents this summer...no good deed....

did you piss yourself too? Oceans mean wake-up to me. Time to go to the loo.

I didn’t pee on myself but I did dream of banging GF so dream could be on point.

That meet had so many good amps. A few friends of mine are still looking to build an Aegis.

Definitely! That was really fun and the variety of unobtainium amps there was astonishing. Would love to see another one of those and this time around, I can bring the Aegis for more awesomesauce. I got lucky enough to secure one from a DIYer for no labor costs, just the cost of parts only

The bass is addictive. Actually loved the combo with Sony Walkman and the bass is as good as I get from my Fir CIEM

Sonos move 2 + 100 year old hardwood floor acoustics = big chills

Change the power cable to reset your brain

Listen with some lower midfi gear for a while. This might reset your baseline. Also, sometimes you just need a break.

That coupled with brain wave timing especially after the witching hour can be a transformative listening experience.

Although I haven't used an electrostatic amp, I bought a Dynalo from Birgir and had a very positive experience. We had a lengthy email exchange prior to purchase, and he took care of me a couple of years later when the volume pot started having issues. Birgir sells a bunch of used amps on his site, including Tyll's old amp, which @Rthomas mentioned. That might be a place to start without breaking the bank.

I visit Mjolnir's used amp page often and have been mighty tempted. Still a fair spend over there. I think I got starry-eyed visions of a cheap DIY Carbon and a used pair of 007 for under $3k, which has gotten me tempted again. In my big TOTL-ish audition last year, including a visit to HeadAmp in C-Ville, I ended up not being sure if stats are for me.

But I do see plenty of reports that 007 and 009(S) properly amped hang in there with or beat the Sus. And the X9000, in a brief audition, were just a detail monster. Basically, in casting around for something "different," I've got curious about stats again.

Interesting item and reasonably priced

I also have the zmf suede Ori pads on these. These are great walk around and office headohones. For the price they're pretty great with these tweaks.

Wow. There is actual texture in the bass. The mids, while a touch thin, are more legible. Well done custom cans!

Just back from a nice dog walk with them. They're more "audiophile" in that I am drawn into the nuances of the recording and production, but they might be a little less fun. C Cans provides a couple options. I'll try these out.

damn...do they beat the jade greens? That was sort of the thing in clicky land. I want to get off linears, but I can't really get off the smoothness of the L&F tangerines I have

You seem to refer to Wuche one right? I also like their Morandi very much. No doubt they make fantastic linear switches. Nonetheless I value fun factor these days. Joyful feedback to finger is sorta addictive. Especially whey they are done right.

Don’t live in your bedroom forever.

Enjoy! One day I’ll join you, probably. One day…

Dibs if you ever let go of it! (Fat chance I know, but hey may as well :P)

Weiss 204 with Plixir Eite BDC LPS vs PS Audio Directsream MK1 signature edition as modded by APS transformers. These DACs more alike than different but Weiss is more brash and bold while PS Audio more refined. Lots of impressions to come.

Have you heard a wandla? It looks pretty neat, though I can't trust any head-fi opinions on it.

@Cellist88 haven't had the opportunity to hear, but I know it has lots of fans out there

Which specific one are you considering?

No point trying to talk out of it. Here are alternatives:
Try new dCs smallest thing.

What I remember about the M3 I tried was that it was probably one of the least sins of commission in an amp that I've heard before but it wasn't for me in terms of gear synergy.

Also it sounded distinctly DS (and not MB / R-2R) to me, but good DS.

In short, worth a try if you just want something that's just quietly competent and are OK with DS.

How's the bass extension on the utopia and stellaris? I'm starting to think that my pair is broken...

Bass is plentiful and accurate, as good or better than the other pairings I have access to.

No White Castle near me and the Krystal rip off isn’t good

not sure how BK still even exists...

Krystal here is like a dysentery drive through.

Jollibee in the Philippines has gotten much worse over the years, it's sad. Theories are that they're investing more in foreign ventures to try and win them over. The local stuff is a shadow of what it used to be. Basically just breaded bones.

Idk why Jollibee North America removed the tuna pie! Maybe because it’s tuna but easily my favorite item.

@Lyander if you mean they are trying to invest Jollibee North America, they are sucking at it (at least the one near me). Sub-par service and bland food now. Mango Peach Pie, however, always on point - the only consistent good.

I have two and love them!

I think it was Sunday night it (in Roon) was giving me an error with it, but I ignored it and it was normal the next day…sorry no help

Oh, I second the suggestion to change ur password …

Changed pw hopefully it works. However, I did notice that even after changing my pw other devices still stayed logged in for quite a while.

Also a quick google search that I should have done earlier said this was a common error a year or so ago even on several trial accounts...

Always a fun thing to do, then wait for the break in to take place

Always check your Azimuth.
