Collusion

The LS60's are certainly not rolled-off in the treble region. I didn't have any grievances with the treble, but I have to admit that I am currently on a medication that (temporarily) compromises my ability to hear the very highest frequencies. You might want to check this area out with your own ears.

I’m very curious about those all-in-ones, too. Might be my way to go if I ever have the money to pay for a decent 2ch. I’m especially interested in the new Dynaudio Focus range and hope to hear them in Munich if I manage to find the time this year.

I 'd really like to hear the LS60. I currently have the LS50W, the older model, and they sound really good. My only reservation is that the older LS50W use the older KEF Connect app, and it's already a little buggy. One wonders how much longer it'll be supported, and you sort of need it for WiFi set-up and other things.

Of the three I have seen I still like the first one the best, but as far as franchises go none of them disappoint and I'm sure the latest is going to be a great watch too.

@Ksaurav402 Watched it a long time ago, but don't remember specifically what kind of impression it left. For me JW4 is one of those movies that leave a lasting impression. JW4 has the best cinematography of the whole series and the action scenes are even more insane than before.

Haven't seen newest installment but the previous became repetitive and tedious.

I caught the flu between Christmas and New Years and it was honestly worse than Covid. I was running the worst fever ive had in my adult life and it last for 4 days

Same! Was miserable.

Make sure you drink lots and lots of water. It will help thin the junk behind your tympanic membranes.

Tell me… I'm curious. I watched this a while ago and I liked it but idk I don't live in the west https://youtu.be/fd5qf4pG-xg

This isn't a Nordic thing AFAIK, but I don't know about Central Europe and UK. Maybe this is more of an American phenomenon?

I've only tried simpler stuff, like getting reminders about how to do certain coding tasks, or asking for book summaries. It's been very useful for that level of help.

I managed to get ChatGPT to write me a privacy addendum in the style of Dante’s Inferno

Merry Christmas!!!!

I share the first one.

That's an interesting question, but it's apples and oranges to me, since speakers change so much in the room. Maybe a good pair of small-ish monitors? Strong imaging and precision but without much bass impact.

I know some watch collectors that use it

There's a Bryston BHA-1 that I am interested in: https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/63411145-bryston-bha-1-headphone-preamp

I got mine from Forza Audioworks (Noir HPC Mk2) and like it very much. I don't need the length of the stock cable and this, combined with its rigidity meant that the stock one was annoying and was always getting in my way.

PM me if you can't find anything cheap. I've got a 1.5M Cardas Clear Light XLR 4-pin I'm not using I can let go if you pay shipping.

Used the old cable a lot but I am happy with an aftermarket. 3M on the stock cable was too long for me personally.

Ah yes the spl sennheiser urge, I think Freud wrote about that

An A-B with the BHA-1 suggested that the Phonitor X is more resolving and has agreeable tone with the HD800S. But it was an all too short compare that I want to return to.

"I think Freud wrote about that"

I am not a fan of vu meters --- but I have always, since the first model came out, wanted to play with the Phonitor's knobs.

@SoupRKnowva I auditioned it via my friend's Stax SR-009 + SRM-T8000 stack. I felt it lacked a bit 'emotion' if that makes sense. Also, compared to any previous sources my friend has had, I think Dave's tonality was a tad on the cold side.

But I did enjoy the technicalities, like clean&hard hitting transients and the overall purity of the presentation. My friend is willing to let me demo the Dave at my home, so I can do a comparison against my Rockna WVDRM Signature.

It’s so interesting to see how other people react to gear. Specially in this case where you own the wavedream sig like I did and are comparing with the Dave. Emotional connection with the music was something that I thought the Dave excelled at

Some things are better kept to one’s self…


Haha, jk. Enjoy what you enjoy man.

We're not worthy!

I heard the OG at a show a few years ago, one of the most impressive speakers there (I know SFA about 2ch).

The OG versions could be had for 1500€. Dunno if the newer ones are worth 1000€ extra. Problem is I cannot listen to them before purchasing. Looking to replace my ATC SCM 19's - I find them too etching sounding in the long run.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck one of the legends gone….

With Schulze, not a good year for composers

Wish we could lose more of the losers and not so many of those who have made great contributions.

Get a rope and start jumping. Otherwise add some running or sprints.

Join the NATO exercises, plenty of that going on I bet

Untrained will gain considerable muscle weight in the beginning. A lot of it is water and creatin bound to muscles.

I have an Oppo 105 and 205. Is it the final word in musical fidelity? No, but it's really not bad. Like @Merrick said, it's total overkill if you have no intention of using the video features. For strictly audio, your friend would get better value elsewhere.

I got to listen to it today and it wasn't utter garbage... but woolly bass, flat microdynamically and some sabre glare. I wouldn't probably personally like it in the long run. And I don't think it's a good match for my friends Stax setup (SR-009 + SRM-T8000).

It’s definitely a bad match for the SR-009. Bright headphones and Sabre glare don’t make good bedfellows.
