Bad Guy Good Audio Reviews (A Million views?) Part 3/4

A kind soul on HFG leant me their Punch :raised_hands:

Loving it so far. Interestingly, it didnā€™t grab me when listening on my desktop rig but thereā€™s great synergy with the R4 :ok_hand: Man I love this DAP. If only it worked itā€™s magic on my C12ā€¦

Picked a Kiwi Ears Cadenza the other day - that thing kicks ass.

All this KE gear is making me quite interested in the Aether!

What was your desktop set up, out of curiosity?

Qobuz > Node Nano > Singxer SU-1 > Exogal Comet+ > Auralic Taurus mk. II. Iā€™ve got a few other amps, but I ripped it all apart last weekend to use some of the gear for a recording session. This is what Iā€™d say is my primary listening chain.

I wasnā€™t ever expecting to have such an elaborate chain. I have actually just made an effort to simplify it because I thought I didnā€™t need half of this stuff, but alasā€¦ I can hear differences in depth, image sharpness, holography for instance when I took the DDC out of the chain. It was the opposite of what I expected to hear because it was a fairly cheap DDC, but I heard it, so it must stay!

55 degrees in February is a long way from 155 in August ( asphalt temperature).

Iā€™m slowly gearing up to peak in Jun to August which is so hot it melts my shoes :athletic_shoe:. 1 pair lasts 1 summer. The asphalt is like a frypan I feel sorry for pets that get walked on asphalt that gets over 150F. I measured. Having your animal torso 8 inches above that is bad and their paws must be blisters by end of Summer.

Summer is hot as hell over here as well. Itā€™s already warmish during day time. Man you canā€™t imagine what its like for wild dogs in the summer, just crazy.

150F asphalt is no jokeā€¦canā€™t even imagine how that feels on bare paws. Itā€™s wild how we sometimes donā€™t realize how much heat radiates off the ground.

I need to get on this workout grindā€¦ Iā€™m feeling like an old man physically. It has to come down to the sedentary life style we all live now a days.

No bueno.
