  Lol that Born in the USA snare has always bugged me. It sounds like ass. Glad someone else notices it. A great record otherwise.

    Agreed. It’s retarded. out of place, and distracts from the music. Way, way worse than 1176 all buttons in and distressor gunshot nuke mode

    Budweiser is a consistent product made from rice, barley, water, and noble hops. Chifi isn’t.

    @loki993 I remember reading an argument between an Amir follower and another forumer on erji.net of all places. I guess even China isn't immune to this shit.

    The only thing I liked from Audio-GD was the Compass2 with the WM8741s. Even my local audio club loved them! Too bad their Sabres sounds like shit.

    Currawong. Currawonk. Currawank. Currywank. That’s it, that’s the secret to this powerful show of oration. He knocks one out before each and every video, lubricating with a hot’n’spicy Vindaloo so he can feel just that little bit ALIVE.

  I have never heard a Slayer album and can resist the call of Satan no longer. Which one would you recommend I try? I will buy on CD so if the year/mastering is critical to getting a good-sounding version, let me know. Thanks!

    Clearly everyone should be listening to Mettalica's genre-defining Death Magnetic via a Woo Fireflies and something Beyerdynamic anyway. Lightweights. That's being properly metal.

    I needed new pads and wanted less bass and a less plasticized treble. Selling the 650 and buying a new 600 was barely more than a new pair of pads

    Curious your thoughts now that you've had them for a while. I ended up getting rid of HD650 stock and modded in favor of HD600. Think my only regret is not switching the HD650 headband pad in as I think it's more comfortable than the HD600's.

    My HD 600 cable broke quickly so I replaced it with an HD 650 one. Otherwise I'm happy.

  First time I heard about bloom causing artificial depth and I think it's fascinating. Can you explain more about this phenomenon?

  They also have no idea what lossy codecs due to high gain guitars bleeding, snares, and cymbals and don't believe you when you tell them.

    Not actual Hydrogen Audio people, just random people claiming that 320 and V0 are "transparent" like religious doctrine.
