  1. I've been using a Feather AS-D2 razor for a couple of years now.  Exceptional build quality typical of proper Japanese work.  Nice weight.

    Tested several blade brands and am hooked on the Feather platinums.  

    Preshave oil is a must for me.  The Art of Shaving oil is too heavy and has a bit of a clove smell for those that are sensitive to scents.  Lather & Wood's unscented pre-shave oil is far better and more practical, especially with the mister on the bottle.

    I am a big fan of Taylor of Old Bond Street's Jermyn Street Collection for Sensitive Skin.  I started using this a month or so ago and was shocked how good it is, especially for the price.  I don't even bother with the badger brush anymore.

    It's a game changer.  Their moisturizer is good, but not nearly as good as the shave cream.

    Alum block is a nice touch after a shave.  I very much like this Neutrogena product for a post shave moisturizer.  This is for a 3-pack.  Note it has a bit of menthol.

  2. I hope they are far better than their e-stats which did nothing for me out of my KGSHHV Carbon.  They were also really loud for anyone sitting nearby.  

    Do the air flows leak sound more so than the average open pair of headphones?

  3. I've been using a headamp GS-1 with the Dynalo+ upgraded boards with my HD650's for a few months now and it transformed those headphones.  I'd put them up for a good while as I found them underwhelming with a Woo WA7 I was using.  The GS-1 really perked them up for me.  I do find the GS-1 a bit too bright with my TH900's, though....getting old and the uppers are a bit to peaky for my tastes.
