DEATHxMACHINE

Very sorry to hear about your loss. I just lost a close friend I knew for 60 years. Very down days for sure.

@Ringingears, always thought you were a youngster! Must be my age or maybe even older. Mortality gets realer as the numbers get bigger.
@DEATHxMACHINE, sorry. Glad music is able to soothe you.

@Thad E Ginathom you have a PM!

Dunno about the Vibro, but Carpenter Brut is really good!

Then you should hear either auteur or verite. Each has its own coloration that makes classical pieces fantastic.

I know the feel; I fattened Zach's wallet after I auditioned some open back ZMFs.

Nope... you will be assimilated when you stop policing randos and let others do it.

@Lyer25 I see Napolean with a big nose, in his big ass hat. Weird.

@ufospls2 Projectives!

Who knows what tomorrow will bring!

@DigMe sounds like a bad time - in my experience the presence of more than three headphone cables occupying the same space will result in a wormhole opening to spontaneously tie them into a knot. Non-euclidian space is scary.

Conflicting signals much..

REW help is really good. Go through it thoroughly even once and you'll be making better measurements than every EARS-equipped Herd-Fier.

Also have a surprise special mod as a finisher that hopefully people will find exciting.

I have a woodshop if that is what you are asking.

Do you have a CNC?

Sadly not

That's enough middle fingers for the rest of the week!

What are you using to smoke? WSM?

Rubbed it down with salt and pepper and smoked it on a traeger with mesquite pellets (i think).

One of the worst days of the year.

That adapter is rad, but the price is bonkers. I've had my eyes on this adapter for a bit; not so fraked on price and the added length my be nice for some: https://tinyurl.com/y5symp6q

Must be putting a nice amount of torque on the connectors. Can't see that being any durable

^You definitely need to be conscious of the cable weight and stiffness

Make sure you use the same pads on each for the most direct comparison. Pads make a *huge* difference.

Yeah, gonna be hoping between zmf ori lambskins, peforated and suede.

My son had lasagna for breakfast so I declare it pasta cereal.

If I open a restaurant, it'll be listed as sheet spaghetti.

@bengo, "Germans use "Nudeln"..."

Is that a more useful version of LinkedIn?

I can't read that without singing along!

Seems like you're the one that needs a shot are two.

@DEATHxMACHINE What's your job? Construction or plant work perhaps? Someone forgot to remove their lock at the end of shift?

I'm an mechanical engineer at at an old facility that has lost its configuration control. A electrician thought his tribal knowledge was more accurate than our drawings and did not shutdown all the sources of power to perform work on a power panel.

Yeah, if SBAF stresses you out that much, you should take some time off.

DIYing is an acquired taste, and people should be able to enjoy gear without being able to service it themselves (though it'd of course be useful if anything goes awry). Hope spending some time relaxing helps!

I read through that 50 page BW thread at least 3 times before deciding to buy one. Some others are probably like me. Long thread but generally good SNR and a great resource. Please keep ugly drama out of high quality gear threads.
