i mentioned to a co-worker recently that i had to replace my faithful old CD player to which she replied "do they still make those?"
-
They're as unprepossessing in the flesh as they are in the photos, but they were surprisingly comfortable and ridiculously overpriced.
-
Spent some time with the Abyss today - effortless and visceral. Very impressive.
-
That's disappointing but not surprising.

Please say it's lighter.

nice review and your pic has become a screen saver - thanks.

Who or what is LFF and merry Christmas.
-
I doubt that anecdote is relevant here.
-
Descriptions from those who haven't connected with the HD800 often refer to a certain sterile and distant presentation, that treble peak and lean bass. I think I'm also one of those people, and my source material tends to be pretty well recorded stuff.
-
Maybe I like distortion.
-
Sorry, I was replying to wink. I've heard the HD800 out of different rigs and there's no denying its technical capabilities. Maybe I just prefer a more coloured sound.

No one should have to try that hard.
-
I tried but never could engage with it.

Well Tyll, you did the headphone community a great service by reviewing the craptastic Ultrasone Edition 10, and they were kind of a big deal. How bad could these be?
Oops! Just noticed skullguise's post. So yeah, what he said.
-
Are you going to be reviewing them over at your site Tyll?
-
pleased to see a thread on these here and looking forward to Tyll's assessment.

I haven't been around this scene long enough to know what head-fi was like "back in the day" but it's a headphone hype-mart now and Jude's video previews are as critical as a late night tv advertisement with similar production values.
-
I could have done without that mental image...
yeah, save it for your internet dating profile defqon.

peaty's alright. it's bugsy you gotta watch out for.

I didn't feel comfortable seeing Cavalli vilified for his response either and I'm a cunt - who's fucking off now.

i'm amazed that currawong doesn't get paid. what's he think he's doing over there - community service? there's gotta be some perks associated with the gig.
-
Very shoddy for a premium priced head amp. Look forward to seeing how you pimp it.
-
luv it.
-
Will that be included in your Innerfidelity CES roundup Tyll?

hmm, can't access the link - oh well. i also like the he-6 and would take it over the audeze phones i've heard.
edit: the link is working now. can't say that i like the new designs but hifiman isn't synonymous with style.
