Glad you enjoy it :+1:

Also just going to say that when you get higher end headphones in the future, the differences become more apparent (or with further listening) :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah I’m sure I’ll hear more and more as I test with more headphones. I’ve only tested a handful of them so far. I definitely think it was a worthwhile purchase, I’m not knocking it by any means. I’m glad I went with it. Call me crazy, but I also like the weird retro look of it. I went with the red metal enog and black glass to counter the black chassis and red knob of the rnhp. They look well together. :blush:

Now you just need to get some neve studio gear to match it lol. Even if you aren’t the intended audience it is something fun to play around with lol (although I don’t know if that’s the most efficient use of funds)

So How much of an upgrade would the RNHP be over the Liquid Spark, if I primarily use the Elex?

Can you pull off the red volume knob and replace it with a black one lol?

I could but red also matches my cables, etc.

It’s ok imo. I like black.

495

When I upgrade to the 1k range I am definitely going RNHP

496

Colors aside, the material difference is night and day. I’d personally stick with the red knob. Maybe spray paint it black if you really wanted a black version.

This is true but when it gets in my hands it’ll become Rhodey’s knob and that knob is black haha. But it might grow on me lol.

It looks nice in person. Has a silky/satin look to it.
