This reminds me of something William Gibson once said. IIRC it was along the lines of how can you continue to write science fiction if we are already living in the future. There are those who dispute that these are ‘proper’ dire wolves, [Experts dispute Colossal claim dire wolf back from extinction] but it’s an impressive feet nonetheless.
Never been to one, but yeah I can imagine 
Seems like a noisy mess to me. I’m thankful to be able to hear sets at home, walking around, commuting, like I actually use them.

what is the easiest/least expensive way to see your listening volume/dB/dBa on iems and headphones?

Yeah, that might be a factor.
Today I had a meeting with our insurance broker to go over the quotes from potential credit insurers.
Instead of saying hello, I started with ‘How much is this going to cost us’. (Because of things like this, our commercial guys never want me near customers, but I control all the money. I am inescapable 
)
And while I’ve known this broker for almost 10 years now, I would never have dared to say something like this 5 years ago.
There is this tipping point where I just no longer could be bothered what others think of me, and no longer felt the need to meddle into someone else’s affairs.

You can say whatever you like.
If they don’t like it they can cope.
If it’s personal the MOD will step in.
@introvertguy Please don’t apologize or explain yourself to strangers on the internet.
Cables come in 2 types
-
Works
-
Does not work (QC)
Impedance impacts certain types of drivers and combos off.
Unless promoted to do that specifically it is a fail
It falls under the “Does not work QC”
There is a thread about cables so please follow the rules .
Use the dedicated threads to discuss relevent topics.
I think they are clowns and whores…the companies and the folks who peddle that bullshit.

In case anybody is curious about the FatFreq Planar I graphed mine as soon as it came in.
You can compare it to the other stuff I’ve measured on my squig

Ya.if you believe a difference there will be a difference. It’s just like that
That’s not how we do things. Arcadia is by far my best purchase. But I also know you won’t like it. Since you prefer much much lower bass with boosted treble. It’s fine you do you. Bt try to refrain yourself from recing ppl to spend money where you didn’t. It’s pretty easy to rec someone a set that costs $2.3k where you aren’t loosing anything.
Cables seem like such a profitable business idea:rofl:
I didn’t joined. I knew Sandeep Agarwal before AudioGeek. We talked a couple of times. Initial rules was just god awful. So I decided not to join.
We have a discord share where we share gear among ourselves for 2 days. That’s how I’m trying gear for past 4 yrs🤔. Most of us know each other and we do know about each other’s preferences. It works
We pretty much have 1 rule… Don’t change the cable that also added after Raven & DarkSaber incident. I ship mine with Tripowin amber with interchangeable termination

That’s the difference and I guess 4.4 improves the noise floor. Impedance makes the biggest difference. Plus most ppl can’t tell 1db difference between somewhere in the fr.
Cable makes a difference… It’s all placebo.

Didn’t the modules affect the bass chamber of the DD? I don’t think there’s a bass chamber as such on this set but

I like it, dawn pro wasn’t pairing with it well, mojo 2 worked the best. It’s a good enough set for me now. I also have to do some tip rolling today. Any tips ( no pun ) ?
We will see at the connect Don’t forget to bring Isa this time. I am waiting for a long time.
This one is very special for me
Edit - Arcadia tips… I personally use S&S or final E with deep fit. You can use any tip that get you deep fit

You from India bro?
In 15 years that is going to replace China in this hobby.
Manufacturing costs (wages) make for more profit.
The future will be India. China’s middle class makes too much…same prob as America and Europe just in it’s early stages.
And these tariffs are going to impact everyone short term

Already started to do that, I’m expecting 6 months to a yr for that. Nintendo’s fumble for switch 2 pricing without taking into consideration tariff was funny for the past couple of days.
Not sure how individual Importing everything from China to US.
