Head Amp 6 PRO.
You nailed the ea500 review. My fave sub $100 set on this year. One of best in that range period.
8 years of Simgot road kills and they nail it on a set.

Thanks Chris for your comment on my review of the EA500. I am so stoked for your video I hope you’re making!

I saw Paul Wasabii posted a micro pore tape mod over vent adds 6db sub boost wow going to try that - Thank Paul!

Ha Ha but you are so right about Simgot, I saw the graph and liked it, took a chance to reach out to them. I told them thier online presence is …well limited in the hobby. Not nearly talked about in comparison to say Penon.
They are a bit like dear in the headlights for what happens in our market vs China. I asked for EA2000 , I am reluctant to buy as my wife as understanding as she is already busted my balls for the $600 I spent on I am not sure what in sound stuff LOL and it’s $300 - Flashbacks of the story for Loraine Bobbit keeps flashing though my mind.



Tape mod vid is up don’t watch the bloopers vid if you get triggered easily I am tired and nothing was working for me this am. EXPLICIT LANGUAGE WARNING

Here is the safe one.

Selling mint condition YanYin Mahina if anyone is interested! :slight_smile:

Seriously my favorite Tri-brid by quite a bit.

Selling only to finance my speaker system. Those ATC SCM19 V2 are freakin’ expensive but I got a good deal.

Someone is confident that they’re not leaving the house for listening pleasure it sounds like lol

To be fair, I wouldn’t be wearing Mahina out of the house though.

Well now I’m very interested in this

If you have some tape, you can play with it when the touring box gets to you. Lucky you

Good point! I’m looking forward to it

Do so you think using the PRO 6 sending XLR in from DAC and passthrough XLR out will degrade the SQ any to my Amps?

Thanks for the advice Chris. Sending Bro love your way. $100 From a guy 4min drive sweet.

If you are passing the signal through I don’t think any audible degradation will occur.
I do not notice anything jumping out at me moving between a RME ADI 2 DAC Fs and the splitter.

Is that out of fear of ‘what if blank happens while I’m out with my Mahina’?

I think it’s more for the protection of others,
“What the blank will my Mahina do to innocent bystanders”

You have been in a roll with these replies lately and I’ve been loving them :joy:

I live in a neighborhood where I could get robbed for something too flashy, but more importantly, I’ve dropped a CRA earpiece on the street and lost it before.

Losing a CRA earpiece was annoying.

Losing a $600 earpiece would make me want to jump in front of traffic (figuratively)

immediately thinks about Minneapolis/St.Paul, Chicago and California
That sucks man I’m sorry you have to deal with that shit. Do you carry or have a knife when you go about your area?

I have done that in the past, but I’m a 38 year old Black man now. It’s not worth me having a knife versus someone with a gun, and if I ever end up in a Police situation, I want one less thing to worry about in terms of making it home alive. Stuff is replaceable, lives aren’t. But stuff being replaceable doesn’t mean I want to have to replace expensive/valuable things either

I meant mainly for protection but I do understand not pulling a gun out over an IEM.

No no, I meant me having a knife (which I did carry when I was younger) wouldn’t stop someone robbing me with a gun, and it would put me in more trouble during a police encounter.

The risks aren’t worth it, now that I’m older and have a fully baked frontal cortex

I hope you get a good opportunity to be able to move out to somewhere less dicey and quieter someday soon-ish man. :raised_hands:
