Yeah, so was I. I'm trying to hint that you don't need to make excuses just in case you end up liking or disliking the stuff that you buy. It's OK to have an opinion, as long as it's informed.

Geddy Lee's voice is painfully bright.

If your hearing sucks, then why even bother? Aesthetics? That warm new-toy feeling?

All amps list that range. Whether they really match is debatable. Noobs will of course say their amp matches anything and everything perfectly, especially sourced by their X-Fi soundcards...

Rush sucks, and JH13s can't fix that.

The dt48s are absolutely atrocious. And now I know that they're very consistently atrocious.

Cute! Congratulations!

Everyone who's on the whitelist should just PM him random shit now.

I don't see the point of getting HD650 just to run off a soundcard. Amped or not, I just think it's dumb. Now if somebody were to suggest a Pico amp/DAC + IEMs.... (hint hint hint). Unless these soundcards are really good, and I just don't know? I rather doubt it. I'd be shocked if it were better than say a Gamma1 Lite.

I almost feel like we're getting trolled by a group of conspirators.

It seems pretty much everyone who's heard the P1+HD800 combo raves about it. I guess there's something magical there.

Imagine if HF combined all the clone threads. There'd be about 3 threads total.

Asr has a Beta again? Does that mean the M3 is gone?

He probably doesn't realize he's a fucktard either.

Gah... it's at least 4 threads in one.

So do these actually have a cult following similar to the legendary dt48s?

Wait, you started 2 threads for the same thing? OK, don't do that ever again. In fact, think very hard before starting a thread at all.

What is this, the nub thread? Just draws in the single digit posters like moths to a flame somehow... Btw, I love the list of headphones in OP. It's just so amusingly random... 3 headphones I've never even heard of + 1 budget staple. Guess which is which. Edit: Oooh 3 of them are noise cancelling. No wonder.

Aww man, someone replied to this thread. I thought we were playing thread chicken, in which case Monkey would lose.

I love my DirecTV.

Hardcore... that's amusing.

GL with the Ayres! As soon as this is resolved, though, you will have about the sickest system amongst the regulars. Pics and impression required shortly thereafter.

You and Yikes with the uDAC? Nobody actually buys FOTM just to be trendy; people buy stuff to fill needs. These aren't clothes. I wonder how many people who buy FOTM stuff would actually admit it to themselves. Anyways, the M3 + AD2000 is working pretty nice, surprisingly so. I attribute that mostly to the strength of my source, though. I have an Elpac M3, which is on the lower end of power supplies. Haven't gotten to compare it to anything, though.

Coincidentally, I have AD2000 and M3, but I think a more appropriate comparison would be to a CKKIII, right? Fully discrete, no feedback and such. Umm... that right there would be the limit of my tech knowledge, so maybe they have nothing common other than those features. Anyways, it seems y'all only pretend to worry about FOTM-ness but just go ahead and buy them things anyways. So yeah. Just do it.

I'd just like to say right here that kwkarth's avatar is fucking creepy. I really don't like looking at it.
