Did not know Foreigner was still active. Hope they come here again one day. It has been a long time.

I believe this is their farewell tour. Mick Jones has Parkinson’s. At any rate the professional musicians he’s hired over the years are really great together. But Maldonado is a revelation. Saw him, with Bluestein and Watson acoustically at Cigar City Brewing.

Yeap things got crazy.

Same for HP toner. I wound up getting non-brand toner. Works fine.

I have been using this for the past 7 yrs and yes it too has doubled. Yet cheap at $29. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007HQW8ZU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's like "yaknowat, technically all the uber equations actually work with negative numbers, so therefore..."

MOND theory is an interesting alternative to dark matter.

I think Aether is a much more elegant explanation.

Electric Universe!!

Yeah, the premise of a rom com hit man movie didn't appeal until I saw it was a Linklater movie

You will do good

Good luck

Check TD Bank and use my name for a reference. Footprint is Maine through Florida. Not the highest paying but benefits are solid depending on your needs. Catch is this is banking. Most jobs they say are local but a good higher end positions are remote. PM me if looking through their job board.

I recommend look for job postings in their hub states: ME, NJ, SC, and FL. Most of the time their higher end stuff/analyst stuff is actually remote and they don't 100% say that. I would start looking in the states first. Some jobs will also say statewide or TD Footprint.

I’ll be happy to send a pair to the EU or India lets pm about logistics when I have some here ready. <3

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

I appreciate your interest! I make these not just for myself but to hopefully share and bring the joy they bring me to others. That’s at least half the motivation. So I’ll invest in others hearing my work. :)

The EM6L charts I’m seeing look worse than Harman’s, both in the bass and in the upper mids. Does anyone know why Crin likes what he likes? His FR “grades” aren’t particularly consistent with his target curve (or anything else). And where is he from? I can’t place the accent.

Why does the dumbest behavior in the audio hobby always seem to come out of IEM land and ORFAS land?

@Claritas He's from Singapore and a few years ago lived in Australia as a student. His tastes typically favour a deep bass boost combined with a pronounced mid-range. Not harmon though. Dude focuses on overall balance. Does not like dark-mid range tilt. Definitely does not grade against his curve. I think it's just a reference for comparison.

If they make a next-generation discman with USB-C charging for on the go without going overboard on the DAC and a good line-out; that thing can be awesome.

Inoffensive but a little lacking. Can’t fault at $25 and probably my new “just buy this until you can afford whatever your endgame IEM is”. Missing top octave stuff, string harmonics could be better but I’d use these all day at work, enjoy myself and not be overly distracted.

Pula PA02 ! $150-160 @ Ali. Also don't look and just buy it! Magnificently tuned. Not much of an IEM guy but this is end game for me.

These are quite nice for the price…comfortable enough for use as I fall asleep

Go on

I'm getting one as well. High hopes as I liked the OG.

Some company's gonna be thanking their *lucky stars* they hired you!

I hope you land somewhere else quickly. Job losses, especially this time of year, are tough.

Thank you everyone for the warm thoughts. It really means a lot!

@Poleepkwa one can only hope the man's starting to regain sanity.

Also inb4 the objectivist hardliners start revising history and claiming the old Harman targets were always a work in progress. Bleh.

Will it just happen to match Crinacle's?

Personally I am tuning to the upcoming 2030 target. Future-proofing!

So 2000s

And you can put and Micro SD card into it, so it can act like a sound card and a player. Pic (sorry it's in Chinese): https://wx2.sinaimg.cn/large/0072IByLly1hhx7uyru2uj31nh6b9npe.jpg

So 2010s

The books are always better. Always.

There are rare exceptions. The Gray Man, for example. Book is no bueno. Movie is at least entertaining.

I'm reading Wool, by Hugh Howey. No intention to watch the show, but the books are damn interesting.

I'm sad I sold mine - it actually fit my danged ears well, too!

They say keeping such close tabs on your x is unhealthy.

It’s called Beautiful World. Platinum with 7 diamond chips. Sounds pricey.

Vide Deut. 22:5

Link isn’t properly normalized. It’s even worse once normalized at say 800hz.

Buy them and lend me yours.
