Happy New Year to you and yours!

Even men of taste need references and guidance.

The Punch was inevitable from the moment I bought the QKZ x HBB then…Raptgo Hook HBB, Hades, FatFreq Mini, and the Deuce.

The Tea Pro is a direct result of the Orchestra Lite set I won from you, which led me to find Fresh Reviews gaming-centered reviews…you both gave the Tea Pro rave reviews…then I found these deals…now my wallet is crying, but soon my ears will be happy.

Happy New year everyone!

Kind of hoping that 2025 will be less of a rollercoaster.
But… Moved into the new place on the 31st and discovered that my AC and waterheater is wired to the wrong electrical circuit (30Ah instead of 300Ah). I now have to chose between using the PC or having heating, not both, otherwise the breaker flips for that circuit :joy:
Guess I’ll take advantage of the situation and ask the electrician to switch out the entire board and make preparations for installing a power post for an electrical car when I buy one eventually.

After purchasing the Deuce, I really am convinced to purchase the Punch. Will most likely be my first IEM purchase of 2025 :slight_smile:

Happy New Year Everyone✨

It’s always a journey finding the right IEMs—each one leads to discovering the next, and I’m loving the ride! My last IEM purchase in 2024 was the Deuce, and it’s been a game-changer for me. Now, the real question is: what’s next? I’m already excited to see which IEM will be my first purchase of 2025—guess it’s time for another deep dive into the world of audio. Here’s to more discoveries and a year of epic sound! :headphones:

Happy New Year to everyone.

This is so true, I was pretty good about not buying for a few months in the middle of the year. With Doscinco, Explorer, and Artti R1 being my first half highlights. Then the fall lineup hit, and Deuce and Arcadia got me, plus Sivga Que. I won the Hype 10 at Christmas ( from Chris’s drawing ). There were more great new sets this year that in the prior 5 years combined, so it was a nutty year to "keep up. I feel sorry for people with FOMO.

Put this on your radar for @hawaiibadboy – Kiwi Ears Ellipse. They have a $60 open back on Linsoul. You seemed like the first impression of the Division was solid, so curious to see if they send you a pair of these too.

That sounds amazing. I will have to check that one out.
It was too long ago for my grandkids to ask about it ( the oldest turns 16 in two weeks, yikes ! ).

I have to shovel some snow ( only about 1/2 inch ) and get to work.

Congrats on winning the Hype 10, what a way to wrap up 2024! The fall lineup really was wild. Got your eye on anything to start 2025 strong?

I have been eyeing that Punch. Sadly I had a sewage backup that is probably going to cost me about $4k to sort out, so I will probably pause on IEM purchases for a bit.

The 10th anniversary edition looks dope :cold_face:. How has your experience been with it? I have seen it getting compared to a lot of high-end IEM’s despite its price point. Did you try them before purchasing?

I am really interested in the TSMR Shock; they have got bone conduction drivers in them :melting_face:

I think the Eagles sitting Barkley with a chance to break the NFL single season rushing record…is a BIG mistake.
Dickerson said he did his in 1 fewer game… :thinking:
And the record you broke (O.J. Simpson) was 2 fewer games than you bro and Barkley would still do it with less carries than you.
40 year old record.
Break it.

I hear you on that! I’ve been thinking about hitting pause and saving up this year for some upcoming expenses too. But hey, when the time’s right, that Punch will be there waiting! Hope you get that situation sorted soon!
