      Sunny summertime means virtually no time for audio DIY. Life gets in the way.

        At least you've got that option. Here weather is pretty much constantly shitty. I'm sure this is the reason why so many efforts at tinkering comes from North anywhere.

        @Priidik - probably why Seas, Scanspeak and SBAcoustics are all scandanavian. Also Class A amps aren't so wastful when they can heat a room up.

        Hah, yes. It gives me a chuckle when Class-D minions rave about how green their amp is, no matter that they are close to North Pole and likely heating their room with electric heaters.

      All my CDs sound much better on the HD600 ... except Led Zep IV.

        "When The Levee Breaks" is still a massive favourite, though. Bonzo FTW!

        Led Zeppelin and most "classic rock" is far from pristine SQ-wise. Seek out the plum label vinyl pressings. There may be rips floating about, legal disclaimers apply. Best versions I've heard.

        The HD600 looks grew on me. (I associate the looks with the sound now.)

        @jayeshrc I don't really notice the looks (since the first day) as they're usually on my head :)

      All my gear is #obsolete, presuming my new HD600's were obsolete when I bought them.

      Resetting frame of reference for 2017 with new HD600.

        Week 2 with HD600. I was worried about missing the bass from my Ultrasones. Didn't happen.

      I just realised my profile picture was taken of me standing in front of a Christmas tree. So, seasonally appropriate, no Paint required.

        Far enough away to not be harmed or damaged, but the constant aftershocks are wide-ranging and unsettling. For added variety we now have gale force wind and rain. What a way to start the week.

        Take care! Hope the damage wasn't awful.
